<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>I have to wonder, why are you
checking the RFC destination in your WF ? This should be done once, and not
need to be done again unless you upgrade or your Basis people get loopy. But I
digress.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><br>
Since the workflow is not really in error, there is no need to restart it. What
you need to do is be able to model the workflow so that once the system
administrator re-sets your RFC destination, you can get back to the start of
your condition step. Setting a few flags here and there, and use of branching
or loops should do the trick.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the workflow to be restarted again once the table has been updated</strong>.How
to do allow the possibility of restarting the workflow.<o:p></o:p></p>
