Detailed Information
After a workflow process is initiated, many of the fields that you use to configure the plan are locked and cannot be changed. This is done to avoid errors and misleading results.
Upon the initiation of a participant into a workflow process it changes to a 'Process Status' of Active. At this point, certain fields become 'locked'.
Also note that upon initiation, the defined workflow process becomes locked.
