If your main intention is to do a bulk cancellation [logical deletion] of work items, you could acheive that in SWIA.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The Extended Notification Job at our site has ground to a halt, no memory etc. This is probably because there are just too many workitems still active that have never been archived. Recently
we have started running program <b>RSWNNOTIFDEL </b>and this is doing a marvellous job of tidying up the SWN_NOTIF table. The problem is that for far too long we have had these ‘task only’ workflows starting for IDOCS. There are a few million entries for
these items that are without agents and have never been completed. The linkage on these has now been successfully deactivated so there are no new ones being triggered. The problem seems to be all the old entries.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I would like to do a bulk cancel of the old ‘task only’ workflows. I have thought of having an ABAP program that uses function module SAP_WAPI_ADM_WORKFLOW_CANCEL to cancel them and then
let the archiving process and <b>RSWNNOTIFDEL </b>do the rest of the work<b>.</b><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> </span></b><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I have implemented note 1897379 to add the three new entries to the SWNCONFIG and set WORKITEM_VALID_FOR_NOTIF(DAYS) but it still seems to have had no effect. I had thought that this would
select less items.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> </span></b><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Is using an ABAP program and the workitem cancel function a good way to tackle this issue or is there another way out?<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Any suggestions would be appreciated.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
