Common issues and Solutions Issue: PO Workflow Issue
Problem: PO Workflow Issue, Workflow encounters the error in Reject Doc Activity. Using below script we can reset PO to Incomplete, Once the PO is reset it will be either in “Incomplete” or “Requires Re-approval” status. Then resubmit the PO for re-approval after being reset Example and Error Messages: Please see below screen shot.

PO#77000004593 from 2/15-In Process Error Stack Wf_Engine_Util.Function_Call(PO_REQAPPROVAL_ACTION.REJECT_DOC, POAPPRV, 74630- 188805, 285457, RUN) --po.plsql.PO_DOCUMENT_ACTION_PVT.do_action:16:failed to lock document after 1000 tries Reject doc error Why this is launched twice, second time also approver rejected this PO.

When approving the notification, the approver clicks on link 'Open Document' which opens the document. Upon modifying the purchase order details in the form the status of the form changes from QUERY to CHANGED and as a result the PO tables will be locked. When the approver does not exit the PO Entry form, but tries at the same time to approve the purchase order through the notification, the PO tables are still locked and as a result the locking error is thrown.

If this is the case then please advise support Then Reset the PO approval status Here are the steps to run the reset script a. Open a SQLPLUS session Start spooling a file for reference SQL>spool reset_log.txt b. Now run the reset script poxrespo.sql mentioned above (ref Note 390023.1) The script will be available in the $PO_TOP/sql directory. @poxrespo.sql c. You will be prompted for po_number:
