Designing the Procedure Dialog › Define Exit States

Define Exit States

For each exit state, define the properties described in the following list.

• Value-Set by procedure logic
• Message type-None, Error, Warning, or Informational

  Determines how the message is displayed.

• Message (optional) text-Displayed when the Exit State is recognized when a procedure stops execution
• Termination action-Normal, Rollback, or Abort

  Specifies the action to be taken when the Exit State occurs.

The following list shows examples of meaningful exit state names:

• Customer Was Not Found
• Order Taken Successfully
• Duplicate Item Number

You specify the circumstances in which a procedure step places each possible exit state value in the exit state special attribute by using the EXIT STATE IS action statement. You can also specify when this exit state value is used by invoking the autoflow feature, which is described in Autoflows.
