Validation Issues
Validation Issues Description	Validates whether at least one active workflow exists.
Checked Conditions	Checks whether there are any records in the SysWorkfowTable table.
Mitigation/How-to-fix	All active workflows in the system must either complete or be cancelled prior to upgrading. A workflow can be cancelled by the user that submitted a record to workflow, the workflow owner, or the system administrator. Active workflows can also be cancelled during upgrade validation. Make sure that the batch processor that processes workflows is running.

Remarks

The script checks to see the count of records in the SysWorkflowTable table. If the count is greater than 0, it assumes that there are active workflow instances and logs an error. It also gives the user the option to fix them by providing a custom form that allows a user to select multiple running workflow instances and cancel them.
