Hi,

There is no similiarity either. It is more like a cause and effect system.

Dialog design is used to form a dialog flow between two procedures or procsteps.


Dialog Design

A tool in the Design Toolset that is used during External Design to produce Dialog Flow Diagrams. It automates the representation of the steps within a dialog and illustrates their sequence.


Dialog Flow

The transfer of control, and possibly data, between procedure steps in the same generated business system (internal flows) or between procedure steps in different business systems (external flows). There are two types of dialog flows: links and transfers.



Dialog design is the process to create dialog flows.

Am I clear? Post questions if I am not clear. icon_cool.gif

Hello,

As CA has several hundred products, it would be helpful if a topic mentioned which product was being asked about.

If you will post which product this concerns, i'll fix the title to show the product.

Thanks,

Not a problem icon_smile.gif It's easy to forget that we're not all on the same page all of the time.
