Using Synchronous and Asynchronous Tasks

[Denis Crouzet]

Hello experts,
 
I know exactly what are the differences betweeen Synchronous and
Asynchronous Tasks :
In theory, Tasks using Asynchronous Methods :
- can not have export parameters
- can not have result parameter
- can not have exceptions
- MUST be terminated by a Terminating Event (published by the application)
 
In practice, I think you can replace an Asynchronous Method by a Synchronous
one (when creating new methods).
Look at ABAP code in method Delete of the Objet Type FORMABSENC (SAP
Workflow Demo) : the publication of the Event is done there!
I think it is better to work with Exceptions.
 
Tell me when you are absolutly certain to use Asynchrone mode. What are you
check list?
Any comments welcome.
