Stop workflow without error on condition

As @JordanB mentioned in his post (https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Knowledge-Base/Stop-workflow-on-a-condition/tac-p/74403#M19...) - there's a common need to stop a worfklow when an condition is met.

However, at present there's no way to do this without generating an error.

 

Please can we either alter the message/test component to allow for error-free termination on a formula condition; or alternatively implement the fuller idea that Mark ( @MarqueeCrew) mentioned in his programmatic Detour idea?

This would help us in numerous ways. Updating the message tool would be great to include an option to terminate without error.

Please tell me this has been implemented @KylieF Edit: I see it has, but I don't believe it is in the version we are using (2020.4).
