Deletion of Workitems with Error status

[Flavio Oliveira]

To delete workitems (doesn't matter the status) you can use transaction
SWUL. There you can choose which workitems you want to delete by using
several select options.
 
Just be careful, because the transaction does not check any thing. If you
tell it to delete a workitem it will delete it, even if the workitem is
still being processed.
 
Regards,
 
Flavio.
