l
References to specific PReS Design or PrintShop Mail documents. Note that the doc-
uments themselves must be imported separately.
l
Specific printer queues.
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 automatically generated name.
6. Click OK to start the import.
PReS Workflow Configuration imports the selected objects and automatically renames duplicate
items in the imported configuration.
Important considerations
l
When importing a PReS Workflow configuration file, resource files like Connect templates, Plan-
etPress Design documents 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 Connect Designer, PlanetPress Design or PrintShop Mail (see
their respective documentation for details).
l
If you import a PReS Workflow configuration that contains a PReS Fax output task, you must
update the task’s properties and refresh the host name. Otherwise, when PReS Workflow will
attempt to output the file, an error will be generated.
Activating or deactivating a process
All processes are Active by default, but you may make any PReS Workflow process Inactive as
required.
An inactive process will display in the Configuration components as red and strike-through. Inactive pro-
cesses can be useful for designing new processes in a live configuration. As the process does not
execute there is no danger of submitting it to a PReS Workflow Service.
To activate or deactivate a process:
1. Right-click the process in question in the Configuration Components pane
2. Click Active to disable or enable the process.
3. Send the configuration. Because making a process active or inactive is a change in the con-
figuration, to make the change effective in the PReS Workflow Service, you will have to send the
edited configuration to your PReS Workflow Service (see "Sending a configuration" on page36).
Note: If you try to send a configuration that contains only inactive processes, the PReS Workflow
Configuration program will ask you to confirm the operation (this can be changed in the Noti-
fication User Options).
