<p>Use the Add CICS Destination Control Table (ADDCICSDCT) command to add an entry to the DCT.
</p>
<p>Each DCT entry defines a destination to which data may be sent. In CICS systems, a destination is a transient data (TD) queue. There are four types of destination:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Intrapartition, which exists in the local CICS region
</li>
<li>Extrapartition, which exists outside the local CICS region
</li>
<li>Remote, which exists on another CICS system
</li>
<li>Indirect, which points to a destination controlled by another DCT entry
</li>
</ul>
<p>Create one DCT entry for each transient data queue.
</p>
<p>Also use the DCT to define whether or not an intrapartition TD queue may be used for automatic transaction initiation (ATI).
