Access in workflow container to method exception outcome (code and message)

[Michael Pokraka]

Hi Fred,
That's roughly what I gathered. Though I've done similar things in the past where I just ended up checking for any exception and sending the user an "BUS9999.EDIT" task with a description "Please post blahdiblah manually", all were happy with that - it just means that the actual problem only becomes apparent in the transaction itself...
 
Cheers
Mike
