Copying SPD WF will lead to the issue with duplicated BaseID which disabled the old WF and treated the copied WF as a newer version.
Never tried to copy it across site collections though, but I guess it shouldn't have the same issue as Tuan did. Will give it a try tomorrow and report back.

I was under the impression there were issues with copying SPD WF's. Can you do this across Site Collections?

I don't understand your question. Maybe it isn't clear enough. I use copy/paste in SPD to clone WF. And I prefer clone WF instead of create a new one because I can re-use many steps in the old WF.

Out of interest, what information were you using to clone an SPD Workflow?

Hi Jeffery, You are right. The problem is duplicate BaseID; I've solved the problem now. J Thank you.

Hi Tuan, When you make a copy of existing SPD workflow, it's using the same BaseID as specified in the xoml.wfconfig.xml and treated as a newer version of the old workflow rather than a new workflow. A simple fix is to modify the BaseID and republish the workflow. Hope this helps.

Firstly, I created a WF to do 3 checking tasks; After that, I think that I may want 3 separate WF to do these tasks. In order to do that, I clone the first WF to two copies and modifies to match the requirements. But only the first WF working; these others don't work, don't appear when I select WF in Item in the Document library. I attached 2 pictures for more information. Regards, Tuan.

Is this OOTB workflow or custom workflow with SPD or custom workflow with workflow foundation? From: ozmoss@ozmoss.com [mailto:ozm...@ozmoss.com] On Behalf Of Mai Anh Tuan Sent: Monday, 4 May 2009 4:57 PM To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com Subject: Attack Workflow to document library? I created a workflow and check "Automatic start this workflow when an item is changed"; this flow working normally. After that I copied this Workflow and pasted to two others WF; but these two WF DID NOT run. These are also didn't appear on "Library workflows" where usually display running and completed workflows. I want to re-attack these WFs to document library and want them to run automatically whenever Item is changed. How can I resolve that prob?
