In addition to Workflow configuration rights, the user group that imports the life cycle needs System Configuration rights.

Tip:

Apply the verbose command line switch (-V) to the Client shortcut when importing life cycles; logging is turned on and errors encountered during import will be logged. In addition, if an invalid character is encountered, the lines of XML up to, but not including, the invalid character will be reported in a report stored in the SYS Configuration Reports Document Type.

Note:

Importing involves careful scrutiny of the data presented in the import dialogs. Care must be taken to identify each element in the life cycle to be imported, and determine how those elements will be mapped to the import life cycle.

Note:

Workflow task lists are always imported as New Objects and assigned new tasklist IDs. Any existing VBScripts or OnBase API integrations referencing tasklists linked to the imported life cycle will need to be updated with the new tasklist ID value.

To begin a life cycle import:

  1. Select Workflow | Import.
  2. The Database Backup Confirmation dialog box displays.
  3. Backup the database.
  4. Type DATABASE BACKUP COMPLETE in the field.
  5. Click OK.
  6. The Workflow Import dialog box displays. From this dialog box, you must choose whether you want to resume a saved session or import new data.
