When you export workflows as .cex files and then import them into a vault, Enterprise PDM maintains any links between workflows.
Workflow links are only maintained in .cex files when you export a workflow from SolidWorks Enterprise PDM 2011 or higher.
To see this functionality:
- In an Enterprise PDM archive, create vaults A and B.
- In vault A, create two workflows.
- Right-click in the first workflow, and select New Workflow Link.
- Select the second workflow as the workflow to link to.
- Save the workflows.
- Export both workflows to a .cex file.
- Import the .cex file into vault B.
- View the workflows in the Workflow editor.
The workflow link is maintained.
