The first character in the code denotes the area in which you want to operate; the second character denotes the operation you want to perform on that area.

You can use the maintenance system screens to view and alter a
connection, but not to insert (create) or delete a
connection. Connections are created and deleted by TMA TCP for CICS
in its normal operation.
The maintenance system checks the two-character selection code that you enter and displays the appropriate screen if the code is valid. If the code you enter is not valid, you receive an error message.
