In two ways we see the CICS error logs – Batch and Online CEMT and CSMT. You can run a batch job of DFHJUP to read and process CICS log data in MVS system logger log streams and in MVS SMF data sets.
Below batch job runs on each LPAR to route error messages to TSO
//PRNTJNL EXEC PGM=DFHJUP
//STEPLIB DD DSN=CICSTS23.CICS.SDFHLOAD,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//STEP1 DD DSN=IXGLOGR.ATR.ADCDPL.MAIN.UR.A0000000,
// DCB=BLKSIZE=32760,
// SUBSYS=(LOGR,DFHLGCNV,
// ‘FROM=(2005/001,00:00),TO=(2005/160,23:50),LOCAL’)
//SYSIN DD *

The other way of browsing CICS Errors
CEMT INQ JOU. The JOU is the name of the journal.
Also, CSMT we can see the error logs:
