Once work item checked out, I believe I can not tranfer, suspend, delete or expire it. my business flow need the checked out work items should be deleted/expired with out the consent of the owner of the work item.
and I just want to know what we can do with the checked out work items. I tried to expire the checkedout workitem at runtime client but didnt get any positive result.
Any help?
Thanks |

the admin should be able to transfer the "ownership" of the work item to himself and the expire it.
failing that WF may need to be changes within itself to allow the person who owns the workitem to expire it via a button on screen etc.
worked on a project where both the above were the case |

The System Admlinistrator can definitly transfer a Checked Out ActivityInstance. This can then be force Finished or force Restarted. But there is no way I am aware of that you can "Expire" the workitem.

the solution implemeted on teh project was that the workitems had a shelf life of a certain time and once expired it would drop off the system
this was automated with WBIMB interfaces
but what tended to happen was that the shelf life never expired and the items wer infact force finished by admin |

We are using JavaAPI but not webclient. we have to send each workItem dynamically to a particular user. If the user simply checkedout the workitem and left, then the user become the owner of that workitem right? can admin continue that task after transferring to himself?

All the tasks done by web client should be possible to do programatically.
