The RRC Transaction Identifier (0-3) combined with the "message type" identifies the RRC procedure with the UE , The RRC transaction identifier alone cannot identify the procedure.
The following rules provide guidance on which messages should include a Transaction identifier
1: DL messages on CCCH that move UE to RRC-Idle should not include the RRC transaction identifier.
2: All network initiated DL messages by default should include the RRC transaction identifier.
3: All UL messages that are direct response to a DL message with an RRC Transaction identifier should include the RRC Transaction identifier.
4: All UL messages that require a direct DL response message should include an RRC transaction identifier.
5: All UL messages that are not in response to a DL message nor require a corresponding response from the network should not include the RRC Transaction identifier.
