do we as workflow analysts want to include business application error codes into mqwf tool? eg. I have a 2 step process.

Program Activity A ---------------> Program Activity B.

When A is started, it starts a cobol program which has several return codes (22 being good, 33 being bad, 44 being bad with x condition, 55 being bad with y condition etc). I don't understand how I can work with those error codes the business apps are providing. I thought that in workflow we had codes like _RC=0 for good and _RC=-1 for bad. Am I missing something here? Can someone please explain? - nathan

I would set the value of RETURN-CODE in the COBOL program to member ReturnCode in the output container, then base my conditions on the ReturnCode member. If you have activities to run in the event of the33 44 or 55 values add them to the diagram. Make the transition from A to B dependent on the 22.
