PReS Workflow lets you create, edit and save configuration files.
As you are working on your configuration, you can save that configuration file as a file on your
local hard drive.
Saving a configuration file never replaces the current PReS Watch service configuration. To do
this, you must use the Send Configuration command.
Saving a Configuration
Files created and edited using PReS Workflow can be saved as PReS Workflow configuration
files anywhere on your computer or even a network location.
To save the current configuration:
l
From the PReS button, choose Save.
l If you were editing the current PlanetPressWatch service configuration or if you were
editing a new configuration file, you are prompted with the Save As dialog instead.
To save the current configuration under a new name:
l
From the PReS button, choose Save As.
l Browse to the location where you wanted to save the file, enter the new name of the
configuration in the File name box and click Save.
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.
