Hello,

I have a process named TR which uses program TIK_TR for several activity implementation.

I would need to change the TIK_TR Program definition (to change Path and file name under Windows NT tab)

I have tried to import to runtime the TIK_TR only and found that:
Existing process instance still follow the old program (use the old path)
New instance of the process also use the old program (use the old path)

If I import again the process definition for TR (with translate option) new instance will then use the new program definition (Old one still follow old definition).

Is there any way to avoid importing the process definition (As it is possible with User defined execution server)?

This will avoid having a new process definition in runtime and would reduce the risk of error on re-importing all process definition just to change path of program used on activities.

Your help and comments are appreciated.
Cheers,
Milesi

If I am understanding you correctly, it is my opinion that this is working as designed. however you asked:

You can most definitely translate the process without importing it again using fmcibie like this:

Code:
fmcibie -uadmin -ppassword -c"TRANSLATE PROCESS '<process_name>'"

Thank you jmac, your suggestion indeed avoid the process importing step.

Change in program will be applicable to all newly created process for the associated process definition.
