Automating a Decision Task

[Michael Pokraka]

Hi Alon,
 
For what it's worth, I use that FM quite regularly to set items to error =
to
restart stuck processes... no ill effects encountered to date.
 
The obvious question which you've no doubt asked yourself: Any reason not=
 to
use a custom ZSYSTEMHASDECIDED event in parallel to the decision????
 
Cheers
Mike
