Issue - copying a workflow with sub-workflows ...
Sjaak_van_den_Akker_(originuser2_-_(deleted))
I've an issue and I don't know if this is a bug or if it's just the way it's working:I have a folder which contains a main workflow and several sub-workflows. If I copy the folder using the browser it creates a new folder containing all workflows. However the main workflow still refers to the sub-workflows of my original folder. Should I consider this as a bug or is a sub-workflow a real sub-item of a main workflow?To compair: If I copy a folder with sub-folders a new folder with new sub-folders is created and it's not referring to the old sub-folders ...

This is just a guess, but I think that when a main work-flow references a sub-workflow, it stores the nodeID of the sub-work-flow. When you copy the folder and its' contents, the new workflow nodes get new nodeIDs. This has no ramifications for the new main-workflow, but leaves the new sub-workflows unattached to the main. This is a logical restriction, since Livelink treats the move as 3 separate events (i.e., it doesn't know that the 3 move as a unit).
