Saving a Workflow to a New Location

When you save a workflow for deployment, it is output as item_type.Workflow.xml and checked in to the server configuration you select. You must store it in that configuration’s StarFlow Extensions project. The default location for workflows is the Projects folder, but you can select another folder. No working file is created for a .Workflow.xml file. The file is checked directly into the application repository.

  1. Click File > Save as.

  2. On the Save As dialog box:

    1. Type a name for this workflow.
    2. Select an appropriate folder to store it in.
  3. Click OK. The Revision Comment dialog box displays.
  4. Enter a description for this workflow. Your description/comment appears in both the description and comment fields of the saved revision if this revision is the first revision of a new file. It appears only in the comment field of the saved revision of this workflow file is not a new file.
  5. Click OK. If a workflow with that name already exists in that location, you are asked whether the existing file can be overwritten. Clicking yes causes a forced check-in.
