You can pass field name while doing transaction. Refer below doc :
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.0.2/SearchReference/Transaction#Extended_Examples

ALso if data is not coming from app_B, can you run below command on server of appB:

.\splunk list monitor

And check data is being monitored or not?
