Editing a workflow that is currently in use

If you choose to edit a workflow in use on an active project, all of that project's existing documents will continue to use the old version of the workflow; any documents uploaded to the project after the workflow was changed will use the new version of the workflow.

If you would like to apply the new version of the workflow to all documents in a project (both new and old), use the Change Workflow feature.

  • Add phases by clicking the icons under Add possible workflow phases.

  • Drag and drop phases to change workflow order.

  • Remove phases by clicking the “x” in the workflow preview.

  • Rename the workflow
