If the active configuration file is currently opened, and if it includes unsaved modifications,
PReS Workflow asks you whether to send the configuration to the PlanetPress Watch service
before creating the new configuration. Select the Always send without prompting for
confirmation option to automatically send the edited version of the configuration.
If a file that is different from the default configuration file is currently opened, and if it includes
unsaved modifications, PReS Workflow asks you whether to save the configuration before
creating the new configuration. Select the Always save without prompting for confirmation
option to automatically save any unsaved work.
Open a PReS Workflow configuration file
To open a configuration file:
1.
From the PReS Workflow button, choose Open. The Open dialog box appears.
2.
Navigate to the configuration file you want to open, select it and click Open.
If the currently opened configuration file includes unsaved modifications, the PReS Workflow
Configuration program asks you whether to send the configuration to the PReS Workflow
service before opening the selected configuration. Select the Always send without prompting
for confirmation option to automatically send the edited version of the configuration to the
PReS Workflow Service before opening any other configuration file (See "Saving and sending
a Workflow Configuration" on page131).
Note
You can also open a configuration file from a previous version of PReS Workflow by
changing the File Type selector to the desired version (for example, .pw7 for PlanetPress
Watch /Server configurations from Version 7).
Saving and sending a Workflow Configuration
The core of the PReS Suite workflow tools is the PReS Watch service which, once started,
constantly runs in the background to perform the tasks included in its current configuration file.
The PReS Workflow Configuration tool lets you create, edit, save and send configuration files.
