True chris,<br> I recently ran into same issue. <br>WF-BATCH user was locked and password synch could not be done. But when we unlocked it and tried synchronizing, the sych always failed.<br>We actually didn't delete WF-BATCH but changed it's password and then we used SWUB transaction and synchronized the password.

right. The problem would be in the RFC destination because the password is
there as well. We never change the WF-BATCH password. We have had issues with
the WF-BATCH user being locked after a client copy and couldn't complete
the auto customizing of the RFC destination. Our solution was to delete the
WF-BATCH user and then run the customizing again with a user that had SAP_ALL.
This created the WF-BATCH user again and the password with the RFC was in
synch.</span></font></p>

<p style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><font face="Tahoma" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Tahoma;">did you set up the WF-BATCH user as
a system user? Check transaction SU01, in tab Logon Data. In the
field "User Type" it should say "system". By
declaring it as a system user no one is able to log on with this user id
through the SAP GUI and the password expiration policies do not apply to
it. </span></font></p>

<p style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><font face="Tahoma" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Tahoma;">In any case, to sort out your
particular problem now, you will need to unlock the user id and you will also
probably need to change the WF-BATCH password in transaction SU01 (this only if
you don't remember the original password) and then re-configure the RFC
destination through SWU3. </span></font></p>
