To reuse an existing Content Cortex process as a task, first import the existing workflow into the solution.

Before you begin

Before you can import a workflow, you must have an existing solution with case properties and at least one case type.

Procedure

To import an existing workflow into a solution:

  1. In the Manage Solutions page, start IBM® FileNet® Process Designer: Hover over a solution and click More Actions > Open Process Designer.
  2. In Case Type Selection, select Solution Workflow Process Collection.
  3. Choose File > Insert and select Local workflow or Workflow from repository.
  4. In the directory, browse to the workflow file that you want to insert.
    Restriction: You must select a Content Cortex process XPDL or PEP file. You cannot insert an Business Automation Workflow case type XPDL file.
    You can also edit a workflow or insert a new workflow.
  5. Choose to update the base work class of the imported workflow process.
  6. Validate the workflow collection.
  7. Save and close the solution.

Results

You can now reuse the workflow as a task in Case Builder.
