I am running workbench an FME Server automation that is fired from a SQL Server insert trigger for a ArcGIS feature class that has editor tracking enabled.

On the workbench I check previous records for the feature and only want the workbench to complete under specific conditions - it is writing an HTML file.

I was considering using the NULL writer but the documentation indicates this should only be used for testing. Looking for the best way to accomplish this.

I considered modifying the trigger but this is so involved and much easier and cleaner to do in FME... Any tips would be appreciated.

A NULL Writer is probably the best way to cause any workbench to complete when certain conditions are met and you do not need anything written.

Alternatively,

You could use a Terminator transformer. I will often use that to end a translation when the conditions I want are not met.
