1. Go to Configure Object Definitions
2. Select Work Order or Payment Information objects
3. Change 'Pending Data' field to Yes
4. Error shows

If you are seeing this error, there are various workflow requests still pending within your instance making changes to the concerned objects.

Workflows for the Work Order or Payment Information object will show under the Request Type = Change Generic Object Actions.

1. Navigate to 'Manage Workflow Requests'
2. Change 'Request Type' field to Change Generic Object Actions
3. Pending Workflows making changes to the Work Order or Payment Information object need to be removed/completed before the object can be changed.

Note : Unfortunately, there is no way to determine which requests are modifying the Work Order/Payment Information object. You will need to review each of these pending Requests to identify which workflows are making changes to the respective object. Once all Pending requests have been approved/declined, you can proceed with modifying the Pending Data field on the Work Order object.
