The issuance of a COMMIT WORK database command terminates a transaction and makes all work permanent and accessible to other users. Acu4GL/Oracle runtime will issue this command automatically when no locks are held, but you can cause it to happen under other conditions by setting the value of the COMMIT-COUNT configuration file variable, which is discussed in detail in Oracle: Configuration File Variables .
For direct control over the transaction logging facility in Oracle, use the transaction management features available with compiler version 2.4.0 and later. See Chapter 5 of the ACUCOBOL-GT User's Guide.
