Reset Demand from Status "Completed" back to "Qualified" or "Draft"

A demand was accidentally pushed into "clompleted" status, although it is not yet finished.
Is it possible to get the demand back into Qualified or Draft status as an Admin?

As per the OOB it should be.

Go to record --> configure--> UI Actions and search for 'Reset to Draft' . See whether it has been customized in your instance.

If you haven't found then you can manually change the state value form the list view or form view if you have demand role or admin.

Hello Sarah,

Have you tried to add the "state" field to the form from the form layout option and manually change the state?

Thanks for that tip, but the state field is read-only...

Hello Sarah,

OOTB that field is not read-only. I just tested it in a nex New York box and I gave a user just the IT PPS ADMIN role. That user was able to switch states on a "closed completed" Demand.

I would check the Dictionary Override to see if they removed the read-only override. Sidenote this field is from the task table if someone made it read-only on the task table without a dictionary override it will affect anything that was extended from the task table.

This will be your easiest and quickest way to change that stats without modifying any business rules or workflows. Let me know if you want me to help you offline. You can email me with the email on my profile.

Hello, Change the state to draft manually and restart the workflow Follow this link for restart workflow. https://community.servicenow.com/community?id=community_question&sys_id=d1877ed9dbdf230411762183ca961945 Don’t forgot to change the state of associated project if that is not indented to be active at the moment. I would suggest to try this in non prod environment first. Regards, Sateesh Kumar Devadoss
