  • What causes this issue?

    To activate a start condition, the following steps are necessary:
    A type linkage between an event of an object type and an event
    recipient (workflow) must be created.
    A check function module of the workflow system must be entered in the
    type linkage.
    The type linkage must be activated.
    The system has determined that the type linkage needed is already
    available and that a user-defined check function module is entered in
    this type linkage. Since only one single check function module can be
    active, the user-defined check function module in the type linkage must
    be replaced by the check function module of the workflow system. Thus
    the function defined by the user-defined check function module is no
    longer available.

    System Response

    The user-defined check function module was ignored in the type linkage
    The check function module of the workflow system was not entered.
    The start condition is not active.

    How to fix this error?

    If you want to activate the start condition, choose '<ZK>Yes</>' when
    asked whether the user-defined check function module is to be replaced.

    Procedure for System Administrators
