If the default configuration does not include any active process, the PlanetPress Workflow
Configuration program asks you whether to continue.
If a file different from the default configuration file is currently opened, and if it includes unsaved
modifications, the PlanetPress Workflow Configuration program asks you whether to save the
configuration before exiting. Select the Always save without prompting for confirmation
option to automatically save any unsaved work before exiting.
Workflow Configuration resource files
Workflow serves as automation tool in a number of distinct products. Some of the tasks that can
be used in a Workflow configuration will work with product-specific resource files:
l
PlanetPress Connect Resources are files created with one of the other Connect modules
- the Designer and DataMapper (see "Connect resources" below).
l
PlanetPress Suite users may use PlanetPress Design documents (see "PlanetPress
Design documents" on page43) in PlanetPress Workflow processes.
l
PrintShop Mail Suite users may use PrintShop Mail documents to create output using
the "PrintShop Mail" on page518 task (see "PrintShop Mail documents" on page48).
These product-specific files need to be sent to (or imported into) Workflow before they can be
used in conjunction with a task. This chapter explains how to do that. Imported files become
visible in the "Configuration Components pane" on page818.
Connect resources
Connect resources are files created with Connect's Designer or DataMapper (see "Connect
resources" above). They are visible in the "Configuration Components pane" on page818 and
are added by using the Send to Workflow option from the PlanetPress Connect Designer's
File menu.
The available resources are:

Data Mapping Configurations: Data mapping configurations are used with the "Execute
Data Mapping" on page618 task to extract data from the job file.
For each data mapping configuration in the list, the following two items appear within
them:
