Splunk AppDynamics uses different types of transaction detection rules to define entry points and name business transactions:

• Automatic transaction discovery rules include the default entry point types and naming configuration for each app agent type.
• Custom match rules offer finer control over transaction discovery and naming for a single entry point type.

In many cases, the built-in rules yield a useful set of business transactions. If not, you can create new rules or edit the existing rules to optimize the transaction detection for your environment.
