Experiencing unexpected error in Workflow - "... Please reset data to discard local changes." - How to fix?

@Phil I’m sure you are still busy with other more critical things. I just wanted to provide an update of what I have tried and noticed.

Observations:

  • I’m fairly certain this was working as expected a couple months ago.
  • Problem occurs with Workflow steps that go directly to Data Change action on WorkOrders table.
  • Similar Actions from Workflows against different tables, DO NOT seem to encounter the error.
  • If I activate the Action with a button, it works as expected.
  • If I wrap the action in another action - Execute action on a set of rows - and simply pass [_THISROW], it works as expected.
  • If I create another similar Action from a different Workflow on a different column in SAME table, I still get an error.

I have tried:

Deleting the offending action and re-adding with different name.
Deleting the column and re-adding with different name.
Deleting Workflow and re-adding with different name.

Potential next steps will be more intrusive. I’d rather you perform your debugging magic to isolate the real problem before trying anything else. It may be a bug that contributes to other issues and worth investigating.
