When you are linking a decision step to a SQL step, a prompt appears to choose True or False:
• Click True to create a link from decision step to SQL step with True option.
• Click False to create a link with False option.
The links from one step to the other are maintained even if you change the location of the step on the canvas.
The links can be moved to have angles. Every straight line has a dot in the center of the link. Click on the link to view the dot. Click on this dot, hold and drag the line to create an angle. Repeat the process by clicking on the center of the lines that was established. In case of decision step links that include the annotations (True or False), the annotation moves with the line.
After linking the steps, click the
icon.
