[Swami Bala]

Thanks Jocelyn. As posted by Branco Marcina there is a OSS note (487649)
which talks about this issue. Hope SAP updates this in the future.

>Hello,
>I have a user decision activity with 'Advance with dialog' option

>step and the subsequent step (approve trip) is executed on his / her

>behave the same way in E-Portal as SAP R/3.
>Anbody has faced a similar situation before ? Any suggestion on this ?
