  Key Concepts: 
  A programming exit is a feature of SAP Business Workflow that allows users to customize the workflow process. It enables users to add custom logic to the workflow process, such as additional checks or calculations. This allows users to tailor the workflow process to their specific needs. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use a programming exit, users must first create a custom program in the ABAP Workbench. This program should contain the logic that needs to be added to the workflow process. Once the program is created, it can be assigned to a workflow step in the workflow definition. When the workflow reaches this step, the custom program will be executed. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a custom program for a programming exit, it is important to ensure that it is properly tested before assigning it to a workflow step. This will help ensure that the program works as expected and does not cause any unexpected errors or issues.
