SRCMID
It is important to note that for tracing to work, the definition of the
metadata field SRCMID
must be expanded. In previous versions, the
SRCMID
was only assigned when a message’s MID
was
reassigned. In this case, the SRCMID
was assigned to the message’s
previous MID
. The SRCMID
would then remain null
whenever a new message was created, whether in Xlate, TPS, reroute, or any other
situation.
Now, whenever a new message is created from a previous message, the new
message also has its SRCMID
assigned to the MID
of the
preceding message. For example, the SRCMID
of a reply message is the
MID
of the original message that generated the reply. A rerouted
message shows up as a new message, but the SRCMID
is the
MID
of the original message.
A new message that is generated in a translation or procedure also has the
SRCMID
point to the message that was being translated or had the
procedure called on.
