Workflow Modeler Nested Workflows

croot

Hello -

Has anyone had any luck implementing nested workflows with workflow modeller?

I am trying to call workflow B from workflow A. For the nested workflow task, I know that I need to fill in one of the two values:

-Workflow model
-Workflow template

I have filled in the workflow model value with the location of Workflow B "Y:\iwadmin\main\workflowModels\STAGING\Models\WorkflowB.ipm "

When Workflow A gets to the point where I press "Start Job" to start workflow B, It comes up with a dialogue box that shows the value "Y:\iwadmin\main\workflowModels\STAGING\Models\WorkflowB.ipm" and a Submit and Cancel button. When I press "Submit", nothing happens. I would like it to invoke Workflow B, but it doesn't. Does anyone know why? Is my syntax correct?

I have looked through the documentation for the correct syntax to put Workflow model/Workflow template values in, but cannot find an example or a definition. Has anyone seen any sort of documentation around this?

Workflow B runs just fine independently.

We are running Teamsite 6.7.1 on Windows 2000 Server.

Any help is appreciated.

What we do here is to just choose type "Workflow Model" and in the Default Value, we put the name of the workflow we need to run (without file system structure or extensions).

So if we wanted to run subWorkflow.ipm, we just put subWorkflow in for that value. You can also use configurable variables (and a instantiation screen) if you need to choose from multiple subWorkflows (eg, used for different levels of review approvals).

Chris.
