Use this page to create a new TRANCLASS. A TRANCLASS resource defines the characteristics of a transaction class.

If transactions belonging to an active transaction class are already running, any new transactions are queued. Use the MaxActive attribute to specify the maximum number of transactions of this class that you want to run simultaneously.
