Versions of a Workflow

[Former Member]

Like ABAP Programs in workflow, the system manages several versions of a workflow. One of the versions of a workflow is the active version. 

For version management, click on Basic data and check the version overview tab. Here you will found all versions.

""

New version of a workflow definitionFor generating the new version of workflow you choose Workflow -->Generate version.

The workflow definition is set to status new, saved; then activate it else it will be in inactive status.

In order not to increase the memory space requirements for workflow definitions excessively, you should only generate a new version under the following circumstances:

• If you have made incompatible changes
• If there are productive workflows running that refer to the current version.

Generating a runtime version of a workflow definition You can generate a runtime version without activating the workflow definition. To do this, choose Workflow --> Activate --> Generate runtime version.

 

Generating and activate runtime version  Workflow --> Activate --> Generate runtime version.

• Features:

1. When the Workflow Builder is started, the last processed workflow in the last processed version is displayed as standard. 
2. When a workflow definition is saved, the old version is overwritten automatically. After being saved, the workflow definition has the status revised. 

• Extra:

1. The import and export parameters of the workflow container (the interfaces parameter) are not subject to any versioning.
