Task association data and/or UOWID to propogate over dynamically routed webservice requests over MRO

When dynamically routing webservice transactions (i.e. using the pipeline mechanism) over MRO within a CICSplex group, there does not appear to be any way of consolidating the TOR and AOR elements of the business transaction as they neither have the same UOWID, nor related 'task association data' - a new Point of Origin is created.

As such it is not possible to consolidate elements of a business transaction based on characteristics of the transaction within the TOR, other than where the TOR and AOR transaction id's are the same.

In earlier releases of CICS it was necessary to change the transaction id within a pipeline handler in order to force a task switch and therefore a dynamic routing decision, so we have many legacy applications which have differing TOR and AOR transaction ids, and in many cases where a generic TOR (web alias) transaction is used.

    Whilst this requirement is valid, based on our current plans and priorities, it is not likely that this could be implemented in the next 12 months, or in the next CICS TS release. Correspondingly this requirement is being declined at this point. The requirement will be kept in the RFE system and might be reassessed in the future. You also have an opportunity to resubmit in twelve months time if you wish it to be reconsidered then.
