workflow management enhancement on version 5?

Hi,

are there any enhancement on workflow management on version 5?

we want to use workflow management functions in ebase server to create some applications (new applications)

We have other forms on 4.5.3. Should we directly build workflow application on version 5 server directly?

Thanks,
Xiaoli

Most of the workflow changes in V5 are internal - to make it work with files. There are a few functional changes, but nothing enormously significant. Most important functional changes are:

o There is no longer a release mechanism.
o You can have multiple assignment services (makes this much tidier)
o There is a new archiving program

Does that mean the changes will take effect on old submitted forms or jobs as well?

No, it just means that you no longer have to explicitly release a workflow process. When you start a new job, the latest process and any related entities will be used. The job is then effectively "locked" at that level and will not be affected by any subsequent changes made to any of the entities.
