FI Parked Doc workflows in 4.6c

[Susan R. Keohan]

Hi Jerry,
 
Thanks, I have tried this test using SWUE,using a document that had already
been created, and the correct workflow is started.  (all three Check FMs
get kicked off, two fail with exception - which is correct- and the one
that continues allows the correct workflow to be initiated).
 
I guess this means more digging...
Thanks again!
Sue
