Links between a workflow definition
and documents or document classes are specific to the workflow definition
version. If an author checks in a new version of an existing workflow
definition, use the new version by creating new links between the document
classes or documents and the new version of the workflow definition.
Link from a document class or document to a new version
of a workflow definition
While the example below shows links between a document class and a workflow
definition only, the concept is the same for links between a document
and a workflow definition.
Add new link:
To enable users to launch the new version of the workflow definition
from any document in the document class, add
a new link from the document class to that new version. If you want
to allow users to launch the previous version of the workflow definition
as well, retain the existing link to that version, as shown in the
diagram.
Link from a new version of a workflow definition
to a document class or document
To use a new version of the workflow definition, create a link to any
document class or individual document.
Add new link
To enable users to launch the new version of the workflow, add a
link from the workflow definition to the document class or specific
document. Retain the existing link to the previous version of the
workflow definition if you want to allow the users to launch both
versions. In the diagram, the dotted line represents a deleted link
between the previous version of the workflow definition and the
document class.
