Error message while trying to process an task of an old instance of a workflow template

Mon Feb 28 04:52:03 EST 2005

I’m afraid I’m not sure what else to suggest in that case – you could always try the steps out and putting them in again….?!!

Good luck…

Anna 

I haven't changed anything in the method mentioned in the error,

I've just entered a condition to check if the PM Order is in status Released (this is a new Attribute of the business object), 
And if it's not then the Path of the workflow is set to go through the the old step,

that allows the user to set the order status  to Release (Method : Edit_Asynchronous).

This step, task  and binding is the same as it was in the old version,

And those steps are working correctly in new instances.

If you have more ideas I'll be happy to hear them,

Thanks in advance

Hi Guy

Have you changed the method or it's import parameters (if you are using any) being called by the task? Even though the workflow instance is using the old version, it will be executing the current version of any method code so if this has changed so that it is no longer compatible with the task/bindings from the old version, then it will be uable to execute the method. 

Cheers

Anna

Subject: Error message while trying to process an task of an old instance of a workflow template

Hello to you all

After changing a workflow template and trying to process a task of an old instance of the same workflow template I'm getting this message :

"

Work item 000008261697: Object PRD400 ZBUS2007C 000002116691 method EDIT_ASYNCHRONOUS cannot be executed

Message no. WL 821

Diagnosis

The call of the object methods for the work item ended with a return code for which there is no handling defined in the workflow. This is regarded as an error by the work item manager (WIM). 

System Response

The work item was set to error status, the return values from the object method were saved.

Procedure

Check the saved return values of the object method. In particular, check whether

	*	an application (ERRORCODE = 1) or

	*	a system error (ERRORCODE = 2) is involved.

In the case of an application error, please check your workflow definition and the implementation of your object methods.

In the case of a system error, please contact your workflow system administrator. In this case also check whether there is an error in the binding definition between task and method.

"

The change I've made is a minor one, I've enterd a condition before the failed step, the same steps and task are used in the new version, 

and in new instances of this workflow, and by the same user who faild to process the old instance step, the step had been process successfully.

Have you enccunterd this kind of error, can you tell me what is the best way to deal  with it ?

We are working on Rel 4.6C. Support Package 40.

Thanks in advance
