Fields
| Name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| WhenNeeded | 0 | Transactions are automatically created as needed. For example, most single SQL statements are implicitly executed within a transaction, and so do not require an explicit one to be created, reducing database round trips. This is the default setting. |
| Always | 1 | Transactions are always created automatically, as long there's no user transaction. This setting may create transactions even when they're not needed, adding additional database round trips which may degrade performance. |
| Never | 2 | Transactions are never created automatically. Use this options with caution, since the database could be left in an inconsistent state if a failure occurs. |
