If you modify, create, or disable workflow templates at different context levels, you must also modify or disable the associated life cycle template. For example, a change request workflow exists at the Site level. On the product level, you modify and rename the change request workflow template. However, change requests created in the product continue to use the Site-level workflow. The reason is because the change requests are still referencing the Site-level life cycle template. You must modify the product-level life cycle template with your new workflow name. |
