<div></div>
<div>Hello friends,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Have a <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">workflow</SPAN></SPAN> that is started by an event. Now, there is a need to allow the users to start the same <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">Workflow</SPAN></SPAN> from <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">GOS</SPAN></SPAN> as well. Is there any way to prevent the <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">GOS</SPAN></SPAN> from starting the <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">Workflow</SPAN></SPAN> if an incomplete <SPAN class=correction id=""><SPAN class=correction id="">workflow</SPAN></SPAN> instance exists for the object? User training is not an option ;)</div>
