Delete workflow instance

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi Everyone,

we have too many unrecoverable/cancelled Workflow instances in our live ERP server and we are planning to clean them up.

are the below tables enough to delete the records from?

 

WORKFLOWTRACKINGTABLE 

WORKFLOWWORKITEMTABLE 

WORKFLOWTRACKINGSTATUSTABLE 

SYSWORKFLOWMESSAGETABLE 

SYSWORKFLOWTABLE 

declare @TableId int = 0;
DECLARE @RecId bigint = 0, @WTST BIGINT = 0;

select @TableId = sw.CONTEXTTABLEID,@RecId = sw.CONTEXTRECID from SYSWORKFLOWTABLE as sw where INSTANCENUMBER = @WFInstance

if(@TableId != 0 and @RecId != 0)
begin

DELETE from WORKFLOWWORKITEMTABLE 

where REFRECID = @RecId AND REFTABLEID = @TableId

DELETE from SYSWORKFLOWMESSAGETABLE
where WORKFLOWCONTEXTRECID = @RecId AND WORKFLOWCONTEXTTABLEID = @TableId and WORKFLOWCONTEXTCOMPANYID = 'ETIS'

select top 1 @WTST = Recid FROM WORKFLOWTRACKINGSTATUSTABLE 
where CONTEXTRECID = @RecId and CONTEXTTABLEID = @TableId and TRACKINGSTATUS != 1 AND CONTEXTCOMPANYID = 'ETIS'

DELETE from WORKFLOWTRACKINGTABLE 
where WORKFLOWTRACKINGSTATUSTABLE = @WTST ;


DELETE FROM WORKFLOWTRACKINGSTATUSTABLE
where CONTEXTRECID = @RecId and CONTEXTTABLEID = @TableId and TRACKINGSTATUS != 1 AND CONTEXTCOMPANYID = 'ETIS'

DELETE FROM SYSWORKFLOWTABLE WHERE CONTEXTRECID = @RecId AND CONTEXTTABLEID = @TableId AND CONTEXTCOMPANYID = 'ETIS'
END
