<DIV>Hi, Viveka,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> I checked the authorization. Yes there is an object - S_WF_WI workflow: work item handling option to choose for each different menu option. Now, I have the option to 'delete logically' and 'complete manually', which is much better solution than delete the work item through reports.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for your help,</DIV>

This WF is one-step task (30001128 <BR>> &30001117). User cannot set the WF to done. This option is greyed out. <BR>> In other words, there is no way that we can change the WF status to be <BR>> completed or cancelled.
