Connection Usage

Transaction Code
Specify the one to four character transaction ID. When MSS receives a request to start a transaction, it only looks at the first four characters of the TP name.
Priority
Specifies the priority for transactions run from this terminal. The default value is 0 (zero). Terminal priority is one factor in determining a transaction's execution priority, which is the sum of:

Session Name
Specifies the security name of the connection. Can be up to eight alphanumeric characters from the set A through Z, 0 through 9, $, @ and #.
Operator ID
Specifies an operator ID used for routing messages. Specify this for a terminal that cannot be signed on, such as a printer. If you specify an operator ID for a terminal that can be signed on, it is overridden by the operator ID specified in the user's sign-on table entry. Up to three alphanumeric characters.
Operator Priority
Specifies the operator priority for transactions run from this terminal. Specify this for a terminal that cannot be signed on, such as a printer. If you specify it for a terminal that can be signed on, it is overridden by the operator priority specified in the user's sign-on table entry. The default value is 0 (zero).
