The operations have normally been already defined by the technical developers when defining the flow. If not, you will have to go first to the Operation tab of the Transaction Editor to create the operations that will participate in your flow. To understand how to create a new operation, go to Creating a UDTT Operation transaction file.
The subflow is a .xml file that is generated from the transaction file in which you select a subflow. Therefore, if you want to select a transaction file as a subflow, you must first generate the .xml transaction file.
6 In the Name field, input a valid state name.
7 Alternatively, if the operationflow that you want to use is in the same project or on the multi-project environment, you can select the OperationFlow file from the Project Explorer, then drag and drop it to the Editing area.
All the properties and events of the file are copied to the state.
The name of the state is the name of the file.
