A trigger element of a design-time flow plan is set so that the trigger element activates in response computing conditions being satisfied. A decision action element of the design-time flow plan executed at run-time in response to activation of the trigger element is set. The decision action element is implemented by a decision table that includes decision inputs and respective condition logic based on the decision inputs for each of a plurality of decision answers associated with the decision table. The decision table is external to the design-time flow plan. First and second decision answer action elements are defined to execute at run-time respectively when a decision answer served-up by the decision table corresponds to first and second decision answer paths in the design-time flow plan that are associated with a first and second one of the plurality of decision answers, respectively. The design-time flow plan is published.
