Can we use Decision Task in POWL? [Scanned]

[Ramki Maley]

Vijay, What steps have you performed in the Inbox configuration in SPRO? 
The POWL inbox is driven by the IBO*C tables for custom standard tasks. 
To get an idea how POWL inbox works for SAP standard tasks please see 
the IBO*S tables. Since your scenario is for a decision task you can use 
a functionmodulehandler. You would need to come up with your own 
function module that performs the appropriate action based on the decision.

Cheers,
Ramki.
