Updating workflow definitions

Determine whether you must use FileNet® Deployment Manager or manual processes to update the workflow definitions.

To update workflow definitions:

Select one of the following actions:
  • If a workflow definition document will be the current version of the document in the destination environment after it is imported, use FileNet Deployment Manager to help you transfer the workflow definition. When you are configuring the import options, select the Transfer workflows after import import option. With this option selected, FileNet Deployment Manager automatically transfers the workflow definition into the destination workflow system after the import completes and updates any imported workflow subscriptions to use the newly transferred workflow definition.
  • If you cannot use the Transfer workflows after import import option of FileNet Deployment Manager, the workflow definition must be explicitly transferred after the import is complete. If the workflow definition is used in a workflow event action that is part of a subscription, the subscription must be updated to reference the newly transferred workflow definition in the destination environment. Use the instructions in Transferring workflow definitions and Updating workflow subscriptions to update the workflow definitions.
