Is there a way to remove a workflow activity besides pressing the 'x'?

turnea · ‎06-17-2016

Basically I have a workflow activity that a developer moved into the top corner and I can't move it. It's not a big deal if I can't remove it but I'd really like to be able to. Is there a way to do it from the back end, am I missing something totally obvious, or am I stuck with this activity in the corner?

Hi Amandah,

Good challenge!

Navigate to Workflow> Workflow Versions.
Locate and open the record of the workflow you have checked out.
Add the related list "Activities".
Find and delete your offending record (mine is shown as "foo" in the image below.)
Close and re-open your workflow in the editor.

THANK YOU! That was going to be my next course of action but I was worried it would make something explode, haha. Appreciate the help!

I was worried too which is why I tested it before giving you the instructions.

I concur with Berny, don't mess with the tables under normal situations. This was an extenuating circumstance and pretty isolated in the data that it represented. Moderate risk.

Agreed - I made sure to check that you were with SN before I went there.
