Error message OL 826 Object does not exist

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Dave,
Looks like a bad GUID reference - i.e. the GUID reference you have given
for the BUS2000110 does not exist - i.e. the CIC activity does not exist.
This usually points to a design error with the workflow - sounds like you
are losing some or all of your full business object key reference in your
first couple of workflow steps.
 
Check that the first couple of workflow steps are not changing the reference
in any way.  Also check that your first couple of steps don't result in for
instance, the old GUID reference being deleted and a new one created.
Something
particularly to watch for in BBP/CRM as a number of objects tend to be
deleted/recreated instead of changed in certain scenarios.  Don't know a CRM
example off-hand, but one in BBP is shopping basket gets deleted/recreated
when a parked
shopping basket is completed and ordered.
 
Also check that the GUID reference is not being deleted by something else
while your workflow is running.

Subject: Error message OL 826 Object does not exist
 
 
Hi folks,
 
Need some help with this one before I report an OSS message:
 
In a CRM system I am using the business object BUS2000110 for CIC
activity with method CHANGEWITHDIALOG for a standard task.
 
In my workflow log when testing the template I am getting the error message
in
the technical details log:
 
Object does not exist
Message no. OL 826
Diagnosis
You tried to create an instance of the object type BUS2000110 with the key
39FC013B974B5AABE1000000AAF836A5. No instance of this kind exists.
As a resul the work item text variables from the object are not being
substituted correctly.
The bindings look good, the workflow trace shows no unusual errors and the
workflow
contaner and workitem container has my object reference in. So now I have
run out of ideas.
I had a quick look in OSS but there is no obvious note to address my
problem.
 
Anyone experienced this type of error with any of their workflows ?.
Remember this is not
a standard WF template, but one I am creating from scratch. The method I am
using is a standard
method in the CRM BOR for object type BUS2000110 for changing an activity.
 
If I use the method in a standard task as the first step in a WS template it
works OK. But I have it
further down in my WS template process after a condition and another method
and then it croaks.
 
Any ideas ?
 
Cheers
Dave
