This section describes the transaction behavior for the agents. For more information about general transaction behavior, refer to the section Transactions in Workflow Monitor[hide]3.0[/hide].
Transaction behavior for the agents differs from when the batch agents are added to batch workflows.
Cancel Batch does not function in the same way in real-time workflows as it does in batch workflows. You configure in the Execution tab of agent configuration if you want Cancel Batch messages to be sent if a decoding error occurs, as described in Batch-Based Real-Time Agents - Agent Configuration(3.0).
Cancel Batch messages are sent:

Forwarding agents: No support for transaction in realtime workflows. Collecting agents: No support for transaction in realtime workflows. But you can still manually handle the emitted transaction events. When the collector would have emitted a beginBatch or endBatch in a batch workflow it will instead send a special beginbatch or endbatch UDR so that the workflow logic can act on these events. |
Emits
The agent emits commands that change the state of the file currently processed.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
Begin Batch | Emitted before the first part of each collected file is fed into a workflow. |
End Batch | Emitted after the last part of each collected file has been fed into the system. |
Retrieves
The agent retrieves commands from other agents and based on them generates a state change of the file currently processed.
