The application program has a number of choices for responding negatively to a confirmation request. If the error condition that caused the negative response is not severe enough to end the conversation, the application program uses APPCCMD CONTROL=SEND, QUALIFY=ERROR. If the error is severe enough to terminate the conversation, the application program uses one of the abnormal deallocation macroinstructions:

• APPCCMD CONTROL=DEALLOC|DEALLOCQ, QUALIFY=ABNDPROG
• APPCCMD CONTROL=DEALLOC|DEALLOCQ, QUALIFY=ABNDSERV
• APPCCMD CONTROL=DEALLOC|DEALLOCQ, QUALIFY=ABNDTIME
• APPCCMD CONTROL=DEALLOC|DEALLOCQ, QUALIFY=ABNDUSER
