created subprocess.
Note
The Branch tasks options Backup job file, Backup job information and Backup emulation, are

If any task converted into a subprocess was previously using local variables, these variables
must be removed or transferred to global variables or Job Information variables to be usable in
the newly created subprocess (see "Types of variables" on page512).
Importing processes
You can import individual processes or groups of processes from another PlanetPress
Workflow configuration file without having to import the contents of the entire configuration file.
The PlanetPress Workflow Configuration tool imports everything necessary to run the
processes, including configured tasks and configuration components.

Connect resource files must be imported separately; see "Connect resources" on page565.

Configuration program lets you open and import any of the following:
