This object is formed by a combination of the (Message) and (Decision) objects. It displays a dialog box containing a questioning message to the user and two buttons (Yes/No) as shown in the image below. The goal is for the user to read the message and make a decision by choosing one of the options (Yes/No).

Example of object usage (Decis. Msg)

Below we will demonstrate a practical example of using the object (Decis. Msg). Let’s use the interface (8D) – Eight disciplines problem solving as a reference. In this example, when the user clicks save and the field (Follow-up) is equal to (On Going), we will show a message asking the user if he wants to send the report for review. If he answers yes, let’s change the value of the field (Follow-up) from (On Going) to (In revision).
