CICS IA needs to gather the SAG Natural programs flow of execution associated with a given TASKID

The customer has the following environment: z/OS 1.11 & 1.13, CICSTS32, NATURAL425, CICSIA31.

The customer is a heavy SAG Natural user and they are asking us to have information about SAG Natural applications program execution sequence flow, just like as the call/link tree of program execution of Cobol applications.

They showed to us that Natural provides enough information to the RDC exit. For example, ASG Software Tmon for CICS can show the flow of Natural s programs in chronological sequence of execution associated to a TASKID using the RDC exit.

The customer would like CICS IA to gather the SAG Natural programs flow of execution associated with a given TASKID.
