Declaration
Procedure CheckOAT;

Description
This method is used in order to control the mechanisms to keep the OAT advancing. This is mostly used internally so it should never really need to be called from an application.

What this method does is check to see if the current physical transaction can be ended internally. If there are not any changes pending a commit and any cursors open that need to be preserved then IBO can automatically end the transaction and allow the OAT to advance. The next time any dataset needs a transaction it is automatically started again. Thus, the OAT management is transparent to the application code.
