  • What causes this issue?

    When executing the workflow with the ID &V1&, the transaction brackets
    were destroyed by a <AB>commit</> command ('C') or a <AB>rollback work
    </> command ('R'). This command ('&V2&') was stopped from the
    implementation program of the object type. Access takes place, for
    example, when a condition is evaluated or when the container operation
    is executed. Access may only have a read character which is why a <AB>
    commit</> or <AB>rollback work</> command is not necessary.

    System Response

    The system has written a log entry. Uncontrolled <AB>commit</> or <AB>
    rollback work</> commands can affect the restart function of the
    workflow system. This restart function is only necessary in the case of
    errors. The current workflow instance is executed further.

    How to fix this error?

    Check the implementation program of the object types and remove the
    corresponding ABAP statements.
