<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>Not bad Gavin. I like this
one because it means I don't need to make any changes to the structure of my WF.
99 should address 'MOST' of the situations but not all. Problem is that the
customers with more then 99 PoDs are huge customers and we don't really want to
have to manually work them (there could be 100s). </FONT></DIV>

<P><FONT size=2>Hi Alon,<BR><BR>At the workflow step level you can override the
global setting in SWU3<BR>for the number of retries for work items with
temporary errors. It's<BR>on the Miscellaneous tab (I think it used to be the
Other tab) and I<BR>believe the limit is 99.<BR><BR>Not ideal, but maybe better
than the wait step..?<BR><BR>Regards,<BR>Gavin<BR><BR><BR>2006/6/28, Alon Raskin
<araskin@3i-consulting.com>:<BR>> Hi Everyone,<BR>><BR>> Problem:
I have multiple instances of the same workflow that are triggered at the same
time. Of course, the first thing that happens is that each instance tries to
update the Business Partner (the same one) and this results in a large number of
temporary application errors. This is no big deal but if I have 50 instances of
the WF for the same Business Partner then I am going to get a lot of errored
workflows.<BR>><BR>> Possible (sucky) solution: One obvious thing I can do
to alleviate this problem is to put in a random wait step and this will
hopefully reduce (or remove) the number of errored workflows. I dont like this
solution as I hate putting in random wait steps unless there is a business need
for this.<BR>><BR>> Can anyone can suggest a better
solution?<BR>><BR>> Look forward to your input.<BR>><BR>> Alon
