Cancelling the previous workitem

[Kjetil Kilhavn]

It's a bit late I guess, but I would recommend using a check function instead. Then you prevent starting the second instance by looking for existing workflows related to your purchase order (function SAP_WAPI_WORKITEMS_TO_OBJECT). 
 
The fewer workflows started, the better - unless your salary depends on the number of started workflows.

  Hi Amit,

  You can built a parallel processing in Your workflow, which ends,  
  if one of the both branches is completed. One branch includes Your 
  current workflow and the other consits of a Wait Step , which waits 
  for the event 'CHANGED' of BUS2012.

     Betreff: Cancelling the previous workitem
     
     

     Hi Workflow Gurus,
     
     I am new to workflow and need some help.
     
     I have a workflow for which I am using 'CHANGED' event of the business object BUS2012 (Purchase Order) as the triggering event. When a user changes a particular PO, this workflow starts. But before it is completed if there is another change to the same PO, then, one more workitem is started.
     
     My requirement is that if there is change to the PO, then, it should delete the previous workitem and start a new workitem. Can you please advise me as to how this can be achieved?
     
     Thanks in advance.
     
     Regards,
     Amit
