There has been a change in WmPRT from 9.10 version if I remember correctly and I have faced these issues.
Use pub.prt.admin:changeProcessStatus to change status and refer BPM_Process_Development_Help.pdf and Monitor_Users_Guide.pdf
Also in the past, there was a KB article published on the same, have a look at the Empower.
