JAVA in CICS - SMF recording of user program/tranid/userid

The customer (FCA/Chrysler) would like to track CPU usage for Java programs running in CICS. From what I can tell the SMF 110 data is only collect for CJSA transactions that the Java programs run under.
Does the SMF 110 data for CJSA have any other information, for example the Java program that ran? Or the Userid that the Java request came in on? Or can the Java program somehow provide a "user" tranid that it would run under and hence create a SMF 110 rec under that tran?

    This RFE is being rejected as the function requested can be achieved using a URIMAP.

    Yes, that's what we want. We will test creating a new URIMAP

    Please can you clarify the question being asked. If the question is can different Java programs run under different tran-id and user-ids then the answer is yes. For Liberty you would create a URIMAP of type JVMSERVER and specify the tran-id to use (cloned from CJSA). The userid can be static if no security information is provided, otherwise it will be the task userid (which is set from the Java subject that authenticates to the Liberty server using the SAF registry. The SMF 110 data will be collected for each different tran-id with CPU use and all the usual information.
