Before you create a workflow type, you must first create a query that will access the table fields for the workflow document. The following procedure describes how to create a query that will be used by the workflow type.
To create a query for a workflow type
-
In the AOT, right-click the Queries node, and then click New Query. A query group displays under the Queries node.
-
Right-click the new query and then click Rename. Enter a name for the query.
-
Expand the new query, right-click the Data Sources node, and then click New Data Source. A data source group displays under the Data Sources node.
-
Right-click the new data source group and then click Properties.
-
In the Properties sheet, set the Table property to the main table for the document type for which you are defining a workflow.
-
In the AOT, right-click the new query and then click Save.
