Hi, I want to create a custom workflows and integrate to my alfresco share. I'm using Alfresco community 5.0.d.

I follow the http://ecmarchitect.com/alfresco-developer-series-tutorials/workflow/tutorial/tutorial.html#configur... tutorial, but the versions of Alfresco are different and in the tutorial they create a new shar and repo .

Anyway, specifically I want to know is, where are housed the process and model definitions?

thanks

The tutorial answers this question. The best way to integrate custom advanced workflows into your Alfresco is to create a project using the Alfresco Maven SDK. Then, produce one AMP for your Alfresco WAR, which is where the business process definitions and workflow content model reside, and another AMP for your Share WAR. You then install those AMPs into the respective WARs.

If you've chosen to auto-deploy the workflow then nothing more is needed. If you are not auto-deploying the workflow you'll have to go to the workflow console and do a deploy on the new custom workflow.

Can you rephrase your question? If you went through the tutorial, you've seen where the model and process definitions are defined. So I'm unclear on what additional information you are looking for.

The tutorial show where are defined in the share and repo projects created using the Alfresco Maven SDK. for example : $TUTORIAL_HOME/workflow-tutorial-repo/src/main/amp/config/alfresco/module/workflow-tutorial-repo/workflows

But, this path doesn`t exist in my Alfresco Community 5.0.d.

Can you explain me, how I can integrate a custom avanced workflows to my Alfresco?

regards
