Hi Roop,

Go to your workfow and inthe codition of hte Loop change the loop condition which satisfy this condition to exit from the loop. Then automatically you mail will stop.

Go to SM50, find your process which is running in infinite loop and select Program/Session menu list & from there you must be able to debug your workflow, then change the required value to exit the loop.

Roop,

It seems that the loop condition is a workflow step and not something in the method code.

For active instances of this workflow you will have to manually intervene. There can be 2 options -

1. Open the workflow log and change the container values such that it comes out of the condition

2. Logically delete the workflow.

Hope this helps

Hi RS,

try as our friends have suggested, but do take care of the WF definition, so that it doesnt occur next time.

You could probably add a ProcessControl Step, if the condition fails, so that you can terminate the WF there itself.

Hi Roop,

Deactivate the workflow which is active.
