I'm new to EPDM and just cutting my teeth on the 2010 beta... here's a real dumb question for ya:
How to I 'activate' a workflow.. that is, once I've written it, how do I get EPDM to start using it?
I have been learning the ropes using the Default Workflow that comes with EPDM out of the box, but now I need to try to write my own workflows. I created a simple one (should work, I think) but when I select 'Change State' in the menu, only the Default Workflow's Transitions are available. I had assumed it would also show the transitions for my new workflow as well, but no dice.
I decided to try disabling the Default Workflow (DW) so the only possible choice for EPDM would be to offer me the newly written one, so I set a condition in the DW that it would only run on BOMs, of which I have none. That should have made it impossible for the DW to be used for a Change State of a SLDPRT file, shouldn't it? Still all I saw were the DW's transitions and no sign of the one I had written. I considered deleting the DW altogether, but it's the only example I have of a functional workflow, so naturally I don't want to trash it.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
