Basic DTCN for 3270 and GUI for CICS transaction debugging

I have had customers, specifically State of GA and others, often confused with the DTCN panel for Debugging. 99% of the time, the customer will not use the LOADMOD name, nor the NETWORK name, nor IP address for the "Combination of Resources to Debug" panel. In addition, the terminology used is not necessarily what they are used to. I recommend we use a "Basic" panel for the 3270, and "Advanced" panel, which would be the same as today. The DTCN transaction would default to the basic panel, and a PF key would navigate to the advanced panel. The basic panel eliminates fields that are infrequently used, and uses better terminology for the "Select Type of ID" section. The fields in this section should use the same terminology and layout as option 6 for DTSU for the exits.

    Delivered in GUI via 14.2.2; 3270 will not be updated as it is no longer within strategic direction.
