Executed          (PPT)

DESCRIPTION
The "Executed" column shows the number of times an application program has 
executed since Sun MTP system initiation. Note that this datapoint differs from 
the "Executed" on the PCT Screen because a transaction can spawn a chain of 
application program invocations (which updates "Executed" for each program on
the PPT Screen but only once for the "Transid" on the PCT Screen). A program
can also be invoked by multiple, different transactions.


VALUES
"Executed" is an integer value initialized to zero at Sun MTP system initiation
and increments each time an application program executes. 


INTERPRETATION
The "Executed" value is the number of executions of a program, whether invoked 
via a transaction requested internally or externally. Specifically, "Executed"
is the sum of executions due to the following request types: an external request
for a transaction by an enduser, internal requests from another COBOL program, 
or an internal request due to a trigger condition for a transient data queue.


CONCLUSIONS
This datapoint helps identify high use programs. The application programs that 
execute the most often should be targets for optimization to increase overall 
system performance.
