Multiple transaction trace
Drag the chart area in Home > Select Project > Analysis > Hitmap. The transaction information of the dragged chart area appears in the TX trace list at the bottom. Transactions including multi-transactions in the list are marked with the icon.
When you select the trace, the Transaction information window appears. If multi-transactions are being traced, you can see the Multi transaction ID in the Record summary tab. Even if you make an outbound call in transaction, the same Multi transaction ID is generated. If projects are separated by service, all transactions between applications can be verified through the first issued Multi transaction ID. For more information about the detailed analysis of TX traces using the Transaction information window, see the following.
If you select Multi transaction ID, the Multi transaction tab appears. The transactions and trace data are provided so that you can see various call relationships at a glance within or between systems, and identify where problems occurred for improvement.

You can check individual execution times for transaction services with the same Multi transaction ID. You can see the call relationships between transactions through the step times ( Time Bar) expressed in background colors for transaction nodes. In the Chart, you can use the mouse to move to a desired position or zoom in or out by scrolling.
