A service that controls and executes FactoryTalk Transaction Manager
transactions contained in a configuration.

Transaction Result Binding

Implements a data transfer from the control system to the enterprise system
(and possibly back to the control system, logging a return code to the control
system that is bound to a data point and reports the success or failure of the
transaction). The control system can then take appropriate action based on
the success or failure of the transaction.

Transaction Result Code

A data value assigned to a transaction by FactoryTalk Transaction Manager
to communicate successful transaction completion.

UNC

An acronym for Universal Naming Convention. Unidirectional transactions
- Transactions that use information from the control system to add records to
a database table or to update the contents of existing records.

Unidirectional Transactions

database and do not return data to the control system.
