68579 - Deleting multiple terms with assigned workflows in SAS® Business Data Network 3.3 might result in "getCurrentTask failed" or "InternalError" messages

Problem Note 68579: Deleting multiple terms with assigned workflows in SAS® Business Data Network 3.3 might result in "getCurrentTask failed" or "InternalError" messages

An issue occurs when you want to use the SAS^® Business Data Network UI to delete multiple workflow-controlled terms at once:

image label

You might be unable to proceed with deletions because the Workflow actions selection is grayed out on the pop-up menu:

image label

Or, if you can trigger the desired action, you might receive error messages similar to the following:

com.sas.workflow.framework.client.WorkflowServiceException: Internal Error

getCurrentTask failed

These errors appear because of a synchronization issue between SAS Business Data Network and SAS Workflow Services.

As a workaround, you can use the DELETE method for terms from the RESTful API. See the REST API Reference for more information.

Alternatively, you can try to delete only one term at a time.
