<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I feel like I’m asking an awful lot of questions here lately! But here is another issue I am facing. I spoke with Sue about this at TechEd and I have scoured SCN and the internet trying to find an answer but
no luck so far.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I have added a temporary exception to a BOR method when a user has the object locked. On other workflows where we have a temporary exception, the workflow log shows a yellow warning indicator on the execution
of the step that you can click on and get the temporary exception message:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><img width="678" height="115" id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.png@01CEF5B1.8641AA70"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">If you click on the warning, you get a pop-up window that displays the message:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><img width="432" height="140" id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image002.png@01CEF5B1.8641AA70"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">However, on the workflow where I just added the temporary exception, I do not get the warning message. You can see in this example below, that the background task was executed twice by the retry program (RSWWERRE)
before it finally completed but I did not get the warning messages:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><img width="680" height="149" id="Picture_x0020_3" src="cid:image003.png@01CEF5B1.8641AA70"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I have compared the two BOR methods (the one that works and the one that doesn’t work) and I believe I am doing everything correct. They both have the exception defined as temporary:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><img width="656" height="205" id="Picture_x0020_4" src="cid:image004.png@01CEF5B1.8641AA70"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">And the logic in the method is doing an EXIT_RETURN raising the temporary exception number:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
