Hi All,
We're getting an error [DM_WORKFLOW_E_WORKITEM_TRANSITION]error: "Workitem (4a0039278005f102) fails to make the state transition
The scenario is the following:
I have process parent that has document package A, B and folder package C
parent launches child and passes IDs of all packages to child. users work on tasks in child. on the task form I have kept an action button that starts another process, passing the document name to that process. The new process queries and fetches the document into a package. An auto method executes, retrieves the package and completes the task.
However, at this time, an error is generated, though the auto task gets completed, and the result of it (a pdf file) is also generated.
The error is as follows:

On tracing the workitem, we've found out that this error is being thrown from the parent process, not the child.
Is there any restriction to passing the same object which is being worked on in one process to another process for asynchronous processing? If yes, what is the workaround to this case? In simple terms, what we're doing is the user is working on a document, and he wants to generate a PDF out of it so that he can see it before he "finalizes" it.
If there is no restriction, what is the problem in our way of handling it and how do we rectify it?
