Updating workflow subscriptions

A workflow subscription starts a workflow in response to an event triggered on a specific object instance, or on a class in the Content Platform Engine. You can deploy workflow subscriptions as you would other objects that are stored in Content Platform Engine. However, you must update the workflow definition information that is associated with the subscriptions before the workflow subscriptions are functional in the destination environment:

Ensure that the workflow definition that you want to use for this subscription has been transferred. This workflow definition might have been imported from the source environment, or it might be an existing workflow definition on the destination environment. For more information about transferring workflow definitions, see About transfer.
Tip: If the subscription and workflow definition document are imported at the same time, and you select the Transfer workflows after import option, FileNet® Deployment Manager automatically transfers the workflow definitions and updates the subscription information. If you select that option, the steps in this task are not required.

To update workflow subscriptions:

For each imported workflow subscription, select the appropriate version of a transferred workflow definition:
  1. In the administration console, in the domain navigation pane, click the object store.
  2. In the object store navigation pane, navigate to the Events, Actions, Processes > Subscriptions folder and open the workflow subscription that you want to update.
  3. On the Workflow tab, select the Workflow definition and Version to use for this subscription.
