Indeed there is an id field. That's the ticket!

And thanks much.

From the usage I guessing this function is not being used in a trigger.
As such the ROW variable exists outside the table. If you want to UPDATE
the table you are going to have to do a hybrid of what you have:

update workorder set wfstatus='failed' where id=workorderRecord.id

assuming there is an 'id' field of some sort.
