How Do I Update Delivered Flow Patterns

You can directly edit the predefined payroll flows and make minimal changes to the flow in the context of a specific legislative data group (LDG).

To configure the flow to your specific requirements, you no longer have to copy a predefined flow, edit, and rename the flow.

You can only edit a parameter and not add a parameter. For example, you may want to change the name of a parameter in the context of an LDG, or change how a flow task parameter is derived.

The changes take effect only when you submit the flow during runtime. For example, if you have made changes and saved the revised flow for LDG A, you can't submit the flow for LDG B. You can submit the flow only for LDG A. If you submit the flow for some other LDG, the flow runtime ignores the changes.

If you want to make more detailed changes, copy, rename, and edit the flow.

Delete the Edits

The changes you make aren't overridden when Oracle delivers a new version of the flow. The changes you make for a given LDG holds good, until you delete or modify them.

Select Edit and use the Deleteoption at the record level to undo changes you have made to a record. When you delete a revision at the record level, you see a message indicating that the changes to the record are marked for deletion. The revisions are deleted when you save the flow.

At the flow level, you can use the Remove All Updates option to undo all the changes you have made to the flow.
