Workflow definition lost

[Former Member]

Hi all.

My problem is that i did change an activate the workflow model by pftc transaction and when i click on the "Workflow Builder" buttom, got the Message No. WD401: " Workflow definition 'WS90300036' not in version '0012' ".

But by swds transaction i can access the workflow definition and can modify and activate it. Then in the basic data > version overview section of this definition the "Activ" radio buttom is not mark. And by swdd transaction till not access the definition.

Please i need some help urgent.

Thanks and best regards.

Hi Gregory,

Sounds like something may have become corrupted. System? Version? I assume you're talking about a dev system.

Try loading the previous version 011 and see if you can activate that. Edit it in the WF builder and try to select v012. Personally I'd do a 'Generate new Version' from 011 and redo all the changes because once a version is corrupt I don't really trust it.

Cheers,

Mike

hi,

the best way is to regenerate the version.just check whether the newer version has been generated or not from the header data-> version overview.

We faced such a situation, then we tried this workaround:

Workaround:

Execute function module SWD_WFD_REPLICATE_FROM_9999 in the client, you need to have the newest template definition. Enter your workflow template ID (with pattern "WSxxxxxxxx") in parameter IM_TASK and execute. Make sure that you do not lock the template in SWDD.

Then you also (may) need to execute transaction SWU_OBUF to synchronize the buffer.

hope this is useful.

Gregory - Did u try doing a SU53 after the WD401 error u get? Maybe you can find some authorization issue?
