Import from XPDL file (P)

To import from a file in XPDL format, (i.e., in XML Process Definition Language specified by Workflow Management Coalition), click on the File tab, next on Open, then on Import and finally select Import from XPDL file. In the dialog that opens select the corresponding XPDL or XML file.

 

The public processes defined on this file will be added to the current project and then automatically opened in the Diagram pane. The participants defined on this file will be added to the set of roles.

 

If the imported XPDL file was created by Engage Process Modeler using Download process diagram as process definition file then some Engage Process specific properties not defined in the standard Process Definition Language will also be imported. Since not all property values are included there we suggest to use Engage Process native format to exchange processes between Engage Process Modeler users.
