If Exit Script is used in a sub-script, returns to the main script with or without an optional script result. If the optional script result is specified, the script result is returned and stored in the main script until another sub-script that returns a value is called. The script result gets deleted when you exit the main script. The script result can be stored in a local or global variable for later use.
In scripts run by certain script triggers, you can use this script step to return True or False to determine whether the triggering event is processed. See Script triggers reference.
