In Process Designer, you can open workflow definition files in two formats: PEP format, the native format for Process Designer, and XPDL 2.0 format, a standard format for Business Process Modeling Notation. For both formats, the workflow definition is represented as a workflow collection. For an XPDL file that contains more than one workflow definition, the first workflow in the collection will display.
If you open a workflow definition that was created in Process Designer in Design mode, the map might contain additional step types and other symbols that are not supported in Diagram mode.
You can open workflow definitions stored in either an IBM® FileNet® repository (object store or CS library), or in your local file system.
