But if this happens very frequently for a particular workflow, it may prove to be very time consuming and costly to maintain and operate due to the frequent setting changes and migrations.Is there a way to develop the workflow in such a way that sessions can be skipped with out any direct change to the workflow configuration?Please download the attached workflow to learn how we can achieve the above requirement by using workflow variables and overriding its values using parameter file when we need to skip a session.You can download this listing as part of the Bundle : Parameter Files.
