WorkItem restart

[John Haworth]

Hi all
 
Could anyone help, I have a very simple workflow allowing document
scanniing and linking to SAP object. All works ok i.e. the workitem appears
in my inbox, when i execute it the correct 'create' transaction is
initiated and I can then create the Object and the link is formed. But if I
exit the create screen, the workitem disappears and I cant re-process.
 
I would have expected the workitem to remain in my inbox, is there a way of
ensuring this?
