Changing event linkages in PRD

[Michael Pokraka]

Hi Jocelyn,
Thanks for the info, but that only solves half the problem. It still does=
n't
let you SET something into error.
I know, I could create a linkage error, write a report, or trasnsport it.
This doesn't help when you're on a site and someone changes something whi=
ch
results in a workflow loop. Or to troubleshoot/test something where you m=
ay
want to check the event before kicking off the WF....
 
Cheers
Mike
