WorkFlow Deployment Steps :

1. In the first(source) site, create the required workflow and publish it.2. Now select Export to Visio option which allows you to save the workflow with a .vwi

extension. (Refer this workflow hereafter as source workflow).3. Now go to the destination site where you want the workflow to be copied, and

create a new workflow with the same name as the previous one & publish it.4. Now select Export to Visio option which allows you to save the workflow with a .vwi

extension. (Refer this workflow hereafter as Destination workflow).5. Now you will be having two .vwi files (one of source workflow’s –

SourceWorkflowName.vwi and other of the destination workflow’s – DestinationWorkflowName.vwi). Now add .zip extension to both the files. Now your files names should be SourceWorkflowName.vwi.zip & DestinationWorkflowName.vwi.zip.

6. Now open both the zip files, copy workflow.xoml.wfconfig.xml from destination workflow to (I have to copy to desktop and then copy/paste into source) source workflow. (Its destination to source and not source to destination).

7. From now on, we will not use the file DestinationWorkflowName.vwi.zip. So ignore that file.

8. Remove the .zip extension from SourceWorkflowName.vwi.zip which gives you the SourceWorkflowName.vwi file.

9. Now, go to the destination site, open workflows and click Import from Visio and browse to the SourceWorkflowName.vwi file.
