• SAP Error Message:
  WD243: Task '&' cannot be used as a decision task
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in the Web Dynpro ABAP (WD ABAP) framework when a task that is not defined as a decision task is being used or assigned as a decision task in a workflow or Web Dynpro component.
  In SAP Workflow or Web Dynpro, tasks can be of different types, such as:
  
  Standard Task: Executes a set of activities.

  When does it typically occur?
  
  When configuring a workflow and assigning tasks.
  When defining navigation or branching logic in Web Dynpro applications.
  When a task is incorrectly referenced or assigned in the workflow container or component controller.
