Workflows for releasing purchase documents!

[Mark Pyc]

G'day Zsolt,

How are they manually retriggering?? Do they raise an event or start 
directly?

If they don't use the event then you simply need to filter the event on 
subsequent raises. Easy enough with a check function looking for existing WF 
instances - if any exist, don't start another one.

The usual story, a bit more info will help.

Have fun,
Mark

PS I'm not asking any 'Why' questions here, I'm assuming you've already done 
that.

Hi all!

One of our customers - they are using standard workflows for releasing 
purchase documents   for a long time - request is to change the workflows in 
a such a way, that workflow is started automatically only at the first time, 
when the release step is created; when the document is created. That is to 
say, they don't want to restart the workflow when the release step is 
canceled. In that case they want to start manually. Does anybody know a good 
solution to this problem?
The problem is not how to start manually the workflow (they are already 
using this), but how to not start when the release is canceled.

My idea is, to create a new starting event, but in that situation, my 
workflow will run just once, because at the second level the workflow is not 
triggered, the release step is not created.

Any idea is welcome
Regards
Zsolt
