life: SE37, FM SWW_WI_STATUS_CHANGE (or something like that –see what’s

SWI2_DIAG to restart it. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I have a
worlflow which for no apparent reason has just stopped. It is not in error.
There is a loop and the steps in the loop have been logged out of sequence in
the log [SWI1] and it is possible that this is the reason for the
stoppage. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>While I
don’t know why the workflow has stopped my question is it possible to kick
start the workflow to the next step?</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The workflow
has been in Production for some time and has given no problems before or since
this issue.</span> <o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>We are on
