- Click No to keep the BP inactive until a later date.
Important information
After a workflow record is created by using any workflow schema (unique combination of Setup Name + Workflow Name), the workflow record continues to reference the workflow schema even if the Status of the workflow schema has been set to Inactive.
This condition includes workflow records that are in the following statuses:
- Draft
- Initiation Step (I-Step)
- Also, this condition includes any workflow record at any other step in the workflow.
If there is an Active BP Template, the Template continues to create records referencing the Inactive workflow schema. For instructions on creating a template, see Creating BP Templates and Scheduling BP Creation in the Unifier Essentials Business Processes Reference Guide.
