Workflow name in AX 2012

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 578

Hi Experts,

I have created a custom workflow in AX 2012 which is working fine when I test it. My question here is where do this name (highlighted in red colour below) comes from when the work flow is enabled in the form for submission. I have changed the label in the respective workflow type but still it is the same. Do I need to do a full CIL generation to get it done after renaming the workflow type or should I change it somewhere else ?

    I'm not sure if the behavior is the same in AX 2021; but, in D365 the 'Name' field in 'WorkFlowTable' is initialized once before insert and doesn't change when you change the label of workflow type, which is not surprising because changing labels does not raise events like changing field (e.g. onUpdated) so 'WorkFlowTable' is not aware of label changes.

    You could try changing the 'Name' field by code or by using table browser and see what happens.
