terminatewob

This command sends the specified work item to its Terminate workflow map or instruction sheet. The work item is then processed and ultimately removed from the system according to the logic of the Terminate map. When the Terminate map executes, all active, suspended, or disabled timers for the work item are ended. The command has no effect if the work item is already in the Terminate workflow map or instruction sheet.

TIP In vwtool, you can enter parameters on the command line (following the command name) or let vwtool prompt you for the information by entering just the command name. Generally, we recommend prompt mode for all but the simplest commands. Entering the parameters on the command line is intended primarily for script-driven input.

If necessary, change to the desired isolated region prior to executing the terminatewob command.

Syntax

terminatewob <wobnumber> <queuename> <overridelock>

Parameters

wobnumber

Work object number of the work item to terminate. Use the wobquery command to find the wobnumber.

queuename

Name of queue the work item is in. Use the wobquery command to find the queuename.

If you specify a system or user queue, you must also indicate the server to view.

overridelock

Override the existing lock on the work item. Enter "y" to override the existing lock, or "n" to cancel the operation if there is an existing lock.

Use the wobquery command to view the current lock status. Select the queue containing the work item, and look in the F_Locked field.

You cannot override an existing lock on work items that are locked by the system; the system maintains a lock on these work objects for data integrity purposes.
