Hi Folks,

Here is the steps to setup the workflow in CU8. To setup workflow for first time, we need to setup it first.

1. First of all we need a batch group which can handle the workflow triggers and proceed workflow task, also send the the notification to users.
 Go to System admin-> Setup -> Batch Group
Add a new batch group for workflow,

The table WHSWorkLineCycleCount does not contain the method WHSWorkTable.

Hi Folks,

Today i just got this error message for "WHSWorkLineCycleCount" table.  while there is no changes in standard objects. Have a look on below case and share your suggestion and feedback as well. Here i am sharing my experience with the same.

Compilation error:
The table WHSWorkLineCycleCount does not contain the method WHSWorkTable.

CIL Error:
CIL generation: Warning: CIL could not be generated for X++ method WHSWorkTableForm.sourceButton_clicked due to X++ compile errors. This method throws an exception if run as CIL.

Possible Reason:
After the configuration key "Warehouse and Transportation management" is disabled, you will get above compilation and CIL error on standard AX 

Solutions:
1. Add one method in table WHSWorkLineCycleCount named WHSWorkTable
To fix it on your environment, simply create a method with name whsWorkTable() on the WHSWorkLineCycleCount table, that returns the corresponding work based on the relation field 
2. You can also try below hotfix:
