Hi,
Is it ok or considered "safe" to update a work item container programmatically?
I do this because in the standard PO approval workflow design is to complete the workflow instance after approve/reject and trigger a new workflow instance in case there is still a next level approver required. In this case, in Fiori My Inbox 2 application the comment input in the previous approval process cannot be seen in the next approval process because now the workflow instance is different. Therefore, I read the previous workflow instance and get the comments and put it in the current work item container so it can be seen in the Fiori My Inbox 2 application.
Thank you.

Really strange decision to start a new workflow, the next level should be part of the same workflow...
I guess you had to make a choice because it's a standard workflow.
But anyway, technically, it's not an issue to update a container. Just make sure that it doesn't bug the standard workflow.
