Description
Resolution: A BW Workflow activity's use of Workflow Connection is validated at run-time and not at design-time. The Workflow Connection can be specified in the configuration or in the input and is therefore optional in both places. However, it must be specified either in the configuration (static) or in the input (dynamic). If it is specified in both places, the input takes precedence.
If the Workflow Connection is not specified in the configuration, then it must be present in the input at run-time. This can only be validated at run-time and not at design-time. Missing connections can be found by running the process using the debugger/tester. BW processes must be debugged before deploying.
