Working with User-Defined Exit Types

User-defined exit types are values that describe the manner in which ASAP atomic actions complete. You can create your own values to describe exit scenarios specific to your own cartridge solutions.

User defined exit types may be configured based on the base exit types and other attributes, such as service action, atomic action, vendor, technology software load, pattern, and so forth. See ASAP Cartridge Development Guide for more information.

Creating New User-Defined Exit Types

To create a new user-defined exit type:

  1. From the Studio menu, select Show Design Perspective.

  2. From the Studio menu, select New, then select Activation, and then select User Defined Exit Type.

  3. Select the project for this element and enter a name for the entity.

  4. (Optional) Select a location for the entity.

    By default, Design Studio saves the entity to your default workspace location. You can enter a folder name in the Folder field or select a location different from the system-provided default. To select a different location:

    1. Click the Folder field Browse button.

    2. Navigate to the directory in which to save the entity.

    3. Click OK.

  5. Click Finish to create the user-defined exit type.
