Definition

Use this indicator, if you only want to try an action. If the action leads to an invalid result, the internal variables before the call are restored as if the action has not been performed.

Example

You use an OM-action to determine the offset of the company code in the non-transparent field OBJKY of table NAST. It might happen, that the value of OBJKY starts with $$$$. In this case, the offset determined has to be shifted by 4 characters to the right.

To do so, create an action chain with the OM-action and a rule as follow-up action with the try-flag set. The rule contains a condition to check for the $$$$ and an action to do the shift on a valid result. If the condition fails, the result of the OM-action without the shift is returned.
