Creates a new workflow on the
StarTeam Server of your choosing. If you are not already logged on to the server configuration that will store this new workflow, you must
select the server configuration and provide logon information.
Open
Opens an existing workflow file. If you are not already logged on to the server configuration that stores the workflow, you
must select the server configuration and provide logon information.
Close
Closes the current workflow file.
Save
Saves the current workflow file and checks in a new revision. There is no working file. This is equivalent to a force check-in.
Save As
Saves the current workflow file, allowing you to specify a new name or location, and checks in a new revision. If the application
already has a file with this name at this repository location, you are asked if you want to overwrite the existing file. If
you agree, a force check-in is performed. No working file is affected.
Save As Disabled
Deletes everything in the workflow file, saving a single
<Disabled/> XML tag in its place. This tag disables workflow processing. To restore the workflow to its pre-disabled condition, check
out a previous revision, import it into
Workflow Designer, and save it. Why do you disable workflows? Suppose you have created a workflow and APE for change requests for an entire
project. However, you want one view to have no workflow. In the folder for that one view in the
StarFlow Extensions project, you would place a disabled workflow. When the application sees that the workflow has been disabled, it uses the
APE without workflow.
Import
Loads a previously exported Workflow xml file into
Workflow Designer.
Export
Saves the workflow document as a local
.Workflow.xml file. Does not check in a new revision. This feature allows you to save a workflow that contains errors.
Check for Errors
Examines the workflow for errors that could prevent it from running and displays the results. Finding no errors does not mean
that the workflow will run correctly, but it should run once the errors are corrected.
New Workflow Step
Allows you to draw a new step in the workspace.
Print
Prints the current workflow, reducing the diagram to fit on a single page.
