After enabling Workflow in CA Identity Manager we have the following error message in Application Server:

CA Identity Manager 14.x
During the CA Identity Manager startup, the Workflow database was not populated correctly
1. Stop CA Identity Manager (IdM) service ( JBoss/WildFly, Websphere or Weblogic)
2. Backup your IdM database ( Oracle or SQL Server)
3. Run the scripts "wp_dropfk.sql", "wp_droppk.sql", and "wp_drop_tables.sql" script to drop all Workpoint tables
4. Start IdM service which will re-create all WP tables and populate them.
About step 3, you can find the scripts under:
X:\...\IAM Suite\Identity Manager\tools\Workpoint\database\
Note: DBA must run the script with the user with DROP permission
Note: If you are using Workflow already, and you have data and jobs pending of approval/rejection, these steps will delete all data and jobs pending approval/rejection.
