Created Task/Method is not working

[Ulrich Mende]

Hi Weidong-
I think, your task does not need a return value, because you don't put
any value in field ZMM_ASSIGN_DLI before giving it back to the workflow
via RESULT.
The true result of your calculation is coming thru container field
ADDRESS, isn't it? So I would switch the result flag of, delete the last
line before the END_METHOD statement.
If it still will not work, you could switch the "instance independent"
flag off too, transfer the object reference but not use it in the
method.
 
Best regards Uli
