Removing states from workflow templates

You may want to remove states from workflow templates if they are no longer used in the workflow. The state is only removed from the workflow template, not from other workflows. Files in repositories that use the workflow template remain in the removed state.

1. Choose Tools > Administration > Workflow.

The Workflow dialog box opens.

2. Click the Workflow tab.

3. Select the workflow template to remove states from and click Edit.

4. Select a state and click Remove.

If the state is not used in other workflow templates, you are prompted to mark the state as deleted. Deleted states are not permanently deleted and can be restored. See Restoring deleted workflow states.

5. Click Yes to remove the state and delete it or click No to remove the state without deleting it.

6. Click OK to save the changes.
