5. Check "Overwrite existing components with same name" if you want processes with
existing names to be overwritten by those in the imported configuration, or uncheck it to
duplicate those processes under a new dynamic name.
6. Click OK to start the import.
PlanetPress Workflow Configuration imports the selected objects and automatically
renames duplicate items in the imported configuration. If the current and imported
configurations both include a startup process, the one in the imported configuration will
become a standard process.
Important considerations
l When importing a PlanetPress Workflow configuration file, PlanetPress Design and
PrintShop Mail documents are not physically imported as they are not part of the
configuration file itself. In order for the documents to be available, you will need to send
each document from PlanetPress Design and PrintShop Mail (see their respective
documentation for details).
l
If you import a PlanetPress Workflow configuration that contains a PlanetPress Fax
output task, you must update the task’s properties and refresh the host name. Otherwise,
when PlanetPress Workflow will attempt to output the file, an error will be generated.
Toggle the Run on Desktop property
Since PlanetPress Workflow configurations are typically meant to run without user interaction,
all of their processes are set to run in the background by default. In some cases, such as when
a dialog box must appear or user input is required, you may make any process run on your
desktop instead of as a service.
