return message for timeout in BPM

[Former Member]

Hey

I have a synchronous scenario using BPM. My question is: If the web service I'm calling is down and I receive a timeout, can I then create a return message from BPM to the sender system that can take attributes from the original message that did not reach it's target? I have read that I can do this in case of an error, but I read someone saying this is not possible when we have a timeout...

Thanks!

regards Ole

Hi Ole,

You can implement a Dedadline branch in your BPM that catches your time out.

You can follow theese links:

Hey

Thanks for that. It still does not answer what I need to know. I know that I can send a response back, but can I do that also with a timeout AND can I also add a parameter to the return message that I retrieve from the request?
