Copy a worfklow from a File Cabinet to another
We are working with several File Cabinets, with very common and complex workflows in the Workflow Designer. Moreover, we use DocuWare in different environments (development, test and production).
We would really like the possibility to copy a workflow from a file cabinet to another, and/or the possibility to export and import workflows between servers.
Our solution currently is to copy each activities of a workflow one by one to another workflow.
Thank you for your contribution. Your idea is available with version 7.4.

I don't think so @Richard Schöler. There are at least three similar suggestions an Support referred to all three of them, as I contacted them about this question. So I voted and Commented for all of them.

Fully agree - this is could be solved as part of the more comprehensive proposal here to allow workflow to be exported. Is there actually somebody who actively tries to merge similar proposals?
In particular for testing it is indispensable, for example to see how different workflow that might try to run on the same document are being handled,

Absolutely! I just have to completely rebuild a workflow for the umpteenth time, which I could actually have copied 1: 1 from another archive. That should become a featureafter so long time.
