<div>Thanks <span>Kjetil</span>! I am aware of the FM. Even with the FM, I would need a background step and end up with a <span>workflow</span> instance that starts and then ends. And as you mention no feedback to the user other than a mail notification.

<div>Hello friends,</div>
<div><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font> </div>
<div>Have a <span><span>workflow</span></span> that is started by an event. Now, there is a need to allow the users to start the same <span><span>Workflow</span></span> from <span><span>GOS</span></span> as well. Is there any way to prevent the
<span><span>GOS</span></span> from starting the <span><span>Workflow</span></span> if an incomplete <span><span>workflow</span></span> instance exists for the object? User training is not an option ;)</div>
<div><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2"></font> </div>
