Insert "Return value" in the Generic Template (Decision Table) for the "Action Cell Groups" in Dynamic Binding.
Objective: Insert "return value" in the Generic Template (Decision Table) for "Action Cell Groups" in Dynamic Binding.
Situation: In a given decision table, there are two rules that are triggered in execution, the value received in the second rule is overwriting the value received in the first rule.
Difficulty: Add a return value, rule to rule, where upon receipt of the "return value" of the first rule, execution is terminated without reading the others rules.
Generic Template Setting:
Rule 6:
Rule 157:
Thanks a lot!!!

By default, when you first create a decision table template, it creates an Action Cell Group with a Display Name of Result and a binding of return, as long as your table has a return type. I am assuming then that your return type was set to void. You can still add an additional Action Cell Group, choose a Static Action Cell Group, add a Cell Format to it, and create a template in the table that displays whatever you choose, and in the SRL Content area just says return. If you create it as an Optional Action Cell Group, you can just add this column in tables where you want it to return and not use it on other tables.
The goal would be to create the return using the "Dynamic Binding", so that the business user can have flexibility when creating their decision tables.
In this way, we could not use "Static Binding". Is it possible to create the return through "Dynamic Binding"?Thanks a lot!!!
Since the statement is just "return" there is nothing dynamic about it. It is creating it as its own column in the table, and it doesn't interfere with the rest of the columns using Dynamic Binding. I don't see any way to edit the Dynamic Binding so that it builds the return statement into it.
Unfortunately this feature would be of great help, offering flexibility to the "end user" in the RMA.
Using "Static Bilding", how can we proceed to create a simple "return value" through it?
Thnaks a lot !!!
Can you send me screens with the implementation of this return?
First you add a code template within the Decision Table template:
Then you create the static action and add this template to the Cell Formats:
Leading to rules looking the way you were trying to get:
Making your table look more like this:
Thomas, thanks a lot !!!
