Complete Running Processes Command Line Utility
Use the Complete Running Processes command line utility to complete or repair running workflow processes that have more than one input link approaching the END flag.
The utility does not repair the workflow templates themselves; it only repairs the processes that were created using a workflow template that has an END flag with more than one input path. To avoid running this utility again, you must modify any applicable workflow templates by adding an appropriate connector before the END flag.
 |
Run this utility against only those processes that have multiple links approaching the END flag and have no running activities.
