status :Workflow transport problems

Fri Feb 9 02:07:52 EST 2001

Hi Alan,
  After applying the note 378487 for Releases 4.6Band transporting, the correct
version is active, i believe that still the old version is executed. Can you
confirm if this is the case or is there some other step that i should do after
transporting the workflow.

Thanks & Regards,
Aravindan.

Hi Alan, Peter and all others,
  Thanks much for the help. I have applied the note 378487 for Releases 4.6B and

it is working fine so far. It was a timely help from you guys. I have
successfully transported and have the correct version active. I was also having
problems while transporting copied templates from existing templates. I am in
the process of testing those. But right now, i have the main problem sorted.

Thanks again,
Aravindan.
