workflow administrator - undo check out

[vedderkris]

I accidently checked out a workflow template. I did not realize this for a few days. In the mean time, users have been creating changes using this workflow. I cannot undo the check out or check it in. I get a message that states, "can't modify or delete process template, there are open instances." I tried suspending the workflow processes and then checking in the workflow template and it still won't let me. What can I do?

you can find documents that used this workflow (that was created since you checked out workflow) and stop associated processes. and politely clarify this to users I'm not sure in this, but hope it help.

I tried to suspend the processes and that still didn't work. How can I ever check out and edit the workflows when I will always have running processes? Am I doing something wrong? I really just want to cancel the check out.
