10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy"> Ideally you need to define this exception in the method as a temporary error which would give a temporary error when the object
is locked (Yellow in WF logs). The temporary error can be swept and reprocessed using a Error processing Background Job configured through SWU3 (Configurable intervals). If you are using a standard BO method, Delegate them and change the exception type. This
should solve the issue.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif">The approval task is based on the SAP standard method for background approval. This has a couple of exceptions to capture if the object is locked, when the background approval
method runs.</span></font> <br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif">What is the mechanism (scheduled job name ?) for the workflow to keep revisiting this task waiting for the lock to go, and after a period of time or number of repeated attempts,
go into error, or take an alternative path?</span></font> <br>
