Definition" from the context menu of the workflow you wish to copy from.
All of the flow logic & container elements will be created for you.
 
Of course, this method is good for entire copies or including one workflow
as a segment or leg of another workflow.
 
For  pure copies, I also use PFTC.

Well,
 
It has been a very interresting Friday..
 
I did: SWU_OBUF, SWU7, set myself as agent, set it as general task, set the
workflow as general task... and between every action several SWU_OBUF's..
Still nothing!!
 
So I looked at the menu.. and I see the option "Extras - Ad Hoc functions -
Enable adhoc agent assignment".
Tried that and it didn't work... BUT NOW the startevent is gone,
workflowcontainerelements are gone... doesn't work anymore.. Workflow
scruwed up...
And nowhere to find how to disable this adhoc option... So I copied the
workflow, copy also doesn't work...........
 
** Solution: **  I made a new blank workflow, copied the tasks from the old
workflow to the new workflow and the workflowcontainerelements from the old
to the new workflow.
 
Now the workflow works again AND the subworkflow works!! :-D
 
This is not the direct solution to the 'No admin found'-problem but it
solved my problems. Perhaps the problem was that I have set the workflow to
general task. Now it is not a general task and it works fine. Perhaps, if
you set the workflow to 'General' you must define an Administrator for the
workflow...
 
Workflow is a nice tool, when it works the way I want it.....
 
PS: HOW-TO copy the tasks and elements from one workflow to another?
The trick is to stay in 1 session! Copy the block, go out of the workflow
and enter the new workflow, and paste the block! (loop doesn't work, rest
of tasktypes works) This also works for containerlements!
 
Well, I am going to have a good weekend now this works..
 
Regards and good luck!
Robert

I add myself to the Responsible Agent of task and Check the Agent
Assignment in the Template (First screen!)
 
SWU_OBUF,
 
SWU7 (Consistency check on WF and see if it finds issues with Tasks not
marked General),
Add yourself to the task. i.e. set the Task as not "General Task" add user
(yourself) and reset back to General Task.
You should see yourself and General Task. Save / Execute.
 
If these fail, close out all sessions if you have not done so already.
(SWU_OBUF does not work all the time as I have found out!)
Bring it back up.
 
>From time to time I get this issue no matter if I SWU_OBUF or mark as
General Task.
After I do the above, I remove myself from the agents of the tasks and they
work fine.
 
Let me know what fixes your issue...

Hi all,
 
I have this really strange situation. I have looked @ the WUGARCHIVE and
tried every solution which is described but nothing works...
 
I have created a workflow with several dialog tasks. In this workflow, I
call the same workflow as a sub-workflow (so you can repeate the many
different options in the workflow in several parallel tasks). When I
execute the dialog tasks in the normal (super)workflow it works fine! But
when I use the workflow as a sub-workflow and execute the dialog tasks,
they all give the message "No administrator found for task".
 
When I look at the log the possible agents are all users (it are all
General tasks) and the name of the agent which has the workitem in its
Inbox is empty! How is this possible?? I even set the workflow to General
task! Does it need any classification or other setting??
 
Hope that someone can help...
 
Regards,
Robert
