Sending a Configuration
PReS Workflow Configuration saves entire configurations in the form of a single file. Like any other file,
configuration files may be saved and reopened, as well as rename as desired. Simply saving a
configuration has no effect on the configuration actually used by the PReS Workflowwhen it is started. To
change any currently active configuration, you must use the Send Configuration command.
When you use the Send command, the PReS Workflow Configuration program uses the currently opened
configuration to overwrite PReS Workflow service's current configuration.
If PReS Workflow service is running when you send a new configuration, it stops and restarts automatically
with the new configuration. If the service is stopped, it will not start automatically.
To send a PReS Workflow Configuration to the local server:
1. Open the configuration you want to use as PReS Workflow’s new configuration.
2. Edit the configuration, if required.
3.
When the configuration is ready to be used, from the PReS Workflow button, choose Send
Configuration, then Send Local.
To send a PReS Workflow Configuration to a remote server:
