Creating Workflow Directly in P-System

[ronny-1]

Dear Experts, 

Happy New year and best wishes to you all.

Is there a way to create workflows directly into P-System?

Workflow that we required are for Purchase Order, Supplier Invoice, Journal GL entry. 

Thanks

Hello ronny-1,

Wishing you as well very happy new year!

Now workflows can be unlocked by customers themselves in P-System via App "Manage Workflow Scenarios", so the workflows can be created via Manage Workflow Apps in the P-System.

And to change workflow definition in the P-System that was transported from the Q-System, you must click "Enable Modification" in the "Manage Workflow Scenarios" app. Once it is enabled, you can edit the respective workflow definitions in the "Manage Workflow for..." app in the P-System again.

But still we strongly recommend customers to develop workflows in Q-System and then transport to P-System.

There are certain reasons why we recommend this procedure:

1) When you would develop workflows in P-System, you have no option to test the workflows first with none productive data. So during workflow development you could have effects that you don't want to have, and you might run into situations that you don't want to have with productive data and that might not be possible to correct easily.

2) When you develop/test workflows in Q-System in parallel you might transport the workflows from Q-System and overwrite your development done in P-System. This could also have unwanted effects on workflows already running in P-system. We won't be able to transport any further changes from Q for this workflow if the modification is done directly in P system

We really want to avoid such problems and recommend to use the Q-System as one single source system.
