END-TRANSACTION Statement
The END-TRANSACTION statement marks the completion of a sequence of
operations that are treated as a single transaction. When this statement runs, the
terminal leaves transaction mode. Transaction mode is an operating mode in which
Pathway servers that are configured to run under the Transaction Management Facility
(TMF) can lock and update audited files.
If TMF accepts this statement, any database updates made during the transaction
become committed, the terminal leaves transaction mode, and the special register
TRANSACTION-ID is set to SPACES. If TMF rejects this statement, transaction
restart occurs.
If the terminal is not in transaction mode when the END-TRANSACTION statement is
run, the terminal is suspended for a pending abort.

program) provides the instructions for the return linkage to the statement after the
PERFORM statement.
EXIT PROGRAM Statement
The EXIT PROGRAM statement marks the logical end of a called program. When this
statement is run in a called program, control returns to the calling program. If the
