Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• A discrepancey occurs when using CEDA VEIEW or DELETE commands.
  If you enter ceda and either option, and hit enter, the transid
  is converted to uppercase.  But if you enter trans(abcd)
  seperately (ie. 'ceda view  <enter> trans(abcd)' or
  'ceda delete  <enter> trans(abcd)'), the transid
  is not converted to uppercase.

  A CEDA DELETE G(xxxx) TRANS(abcd) command is entered from
  within CEDA. Messages S XXXX does not contain abcd and DELETE
  UNSUCCESSFUL are issued. This is because the transaction
  attribute value is not being uppercased ( folded ) even though
  UCTRAN for the terminal is set on.
  New function introduced at CICS TS 2.3 allows CEDA to decide
  if uppercase translation is required for commands entered from
  within CEDA irrespective of the UCTRAN setting. The decision
  is made by checking the commands function code. Because the
  DELETE command is one of the function codes not checked
  uppercase translation is never done.
  The same error will occur for a VIEW or ALTER command entered
  from within CEDA. The problem only occurs when the CEDA command
  is split over more than one screen.

Problem conclusion

• DFHCUCA, DFHCUCAN and DFHEIN23 have been changed so all
  functions codes are now checked. If UCTRAN for the terminal
  is set ON uppercase translation will take place for all
  attributes except those that are defined as mixed-case when
  a resource is displayed.
