How to restart lots of workflows in 'STARTED' status

[Michael Pokraka]

Hi Ross, 
One option is usually to force the WF into error (SAP_WAPI_SET_ERROR), and
restart it from SWI2_DIAG. That's probably a bit tedious for hundreds of items.
I've never had success with SWPC, but it's also worth a try. 
Cheers
Mike
