<br>
My new client has a large number of workflow instances active on the system<br>
and many users have inboxes full of work items. The majority of these are<br>
highly customised purchase requisition release and purchase order release<br>
workflows. For some reason, these workflows were not designed with wait
for<br>
event steps to trap the event when the requisition or order is released or<br>
significantly changed, so the users have performed the necessary steps<br>
outside workflow and the workflows have not been terminated correctly. We<br>
now need to remove these work items from the inboxes of these users, but<br>
obviously a manual trawl through all the workflows is not a preferred<br>
option. Is there a function module or BAPI which I can use to logically<br>
delete a workflow instance in the background from a batch program?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Many thanks in advance,<br>
<br>
Brenda Raubenheimer.<br>
