The runtime Version number in your target system will tend to be higher in your target system if the definition has ever been kicked off as an instance or still has running instances when the Transport is imported. <BR>
<BR>
This is because SAP's Transport mechanism creates a temporary '9999' version (SWDSHEADER & HRS1205) each time in the target environment and then decides whether: a) it can simply overwrite the current active version of the definition with this, or b) it should create a new version and try to make this the current active version.<BR>
<BR>By the way, I have noticed that in ECC 6 (and presumably this was 600 onwards) the runtime version number has found its way into SWWWIHEAD. Before this was simply stored in SWP_HEADER. Now it appears in both tables for some odd reason.<BR>
<BR>
Also note that the 'Original Version' number from the source environment should still be kept in SWDSHEADER-ORG_VERSION. This is the value shown in brackets when displaying the WF definition in SWDD I believe.<BR>
<BR>
So I don't think Sherie's answer below was quite right. If the Workflow being transported has not been used in the target system then the '0000' version will probably be overwritten each time, yes. But, if the definition is being used often and changed often, the numbers will gradually become very different over time. This is particularly true if a Transport fails to activate the definition properly but the definition is kicked off frequently despite this failure. In this situation the system can unfortunately try to turn the '9999' version into a proper version and fail repeatedly but still bump up the version number each time in the process.<BR>
<BR>
As an exmaple we have a WF Definition in our development environment which is currently on version '0024' (remember that the creation of WF versions in development is purely optional), whereas in our live system the exact same definition has crept up to runtime version '0243'. <BR>
