Symptom
It is not possible to ddit the Workflow settings in one of the Purchasing Configuration Apps.
Environment
- SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
App:
Manage Workflow Settings for Purchase Orders
Manage Workflows for Supplier Invoices
Cause
The workflow settings have been already activated.
Only the Workflow Settings with status 'Draft' can be edited. The Workflow Settings that have been activated can´t be edited anymore. Even if they are deactivated, it is only possible to delete the complete workflow.
This restriction occurs because Purchase objects could have been created and linked to the workflow already activated.
Resolution
Create a new workflow instead of changing current ones.
