crminthefield: Watch out for this CRM 2011 Workflow upgrade gotcha!
Источник: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/crminthefiel...de-gotcha.aspx
============== I was recently working with a customer who was getting an error when importing a solution into a CRM 2011 organization. The solution was the default solution from an organization that had recently been upgraded from CRM 4.0, and the error was pointing to a specific Workflow that wouldn’t import. After finding the workflow, we noticed a few things:
The reason the solution was failing on this workflow was because the child workflow no longer existed. However, the errors we were getting when attempting to edit the workflow were also because the child workflow no longer existed. After further research, I discovered there is a difference between CRM 4.0 and 2011 in how child workflows relate to a parent workflow. In CRM 4.0, if a parent workflow calls a child workflow, that child workflow can still be deleted. And if so, the parent workflow handles this by allowing you to Unpublish the workflow and remove the child workflow step. However, in CRM 2011, if you attempt to delete a child workflow that is being used by a parent workflow, you will receive an error and will be required to remove the child workflow from the parent workflow first. What we were running into was a workflow state that should be impossible in CRM 2011, but since it was upgraded from CRM 4.0 it was possible. There is little that can be done in a supported manner to fix this situation. The best solution is to go back to the CRM 4.0 environment and fix the workflow first. This could be removing the child workflow step in the parent, or remove the parent workflow altogether. Then upgrade the 4.0 organization to 2011 again and the problem should be resolved. This underlies the importance of reviewing your CRM 4.0 data prior to upgrading to 2011, and testing after the upgrade, especially your workflows as shown in this case. This workflow wasn’t even being used in 4.0 but caused an issue in 2011 after the upgrade. For more information on Microsoft CRM upgrade best practices, see the CRM Implementation Guide.
