Rejecting a BPF step:Planner to be notified

Question

Hi everybody,
Is there a way by which a planner can be notified that the reviewer has rejected his step via BPF?
We can have email notifications set up for completion as well as a change in status.However i dont see any standard way by which a planner can be notified or a notification happening when a review process is done.
A few thoughts i have:
a- Looking at the back end "BPF status" table and setting up a SQL trigger
b-Setting up a planner property within the derive dimension to work backwards than how a reviewer property works
c-including status change step via Web tasks to pull it back to sm unlocked mode manually when a step is rejected(definitely not a gd option)..
I have been trying on this for a few days but not yielding any strong results.Any expertise if could be shared on the same would be immensely appreciated.
regards

Hi,
with the BIDS you can create a dts with several connected tasks, on the arrow that connect, right click and you have the possibility to set a constraint or expression or combined constraint and expression with "and" and "or" conditions that permits you to choose different ways dependening of the precedent step results.
You have directly on the right click "success" "failure" and "completion" or if you click on "edit" you can use expressions.
please look at the documentation, so if you want on failure options you can add and connect a sendmail task
