Abstract

A method for performing process instance migration between a source workflow environment and a target workflow environment is provided. The method includes a server computing system, exporting a source workflow environment to a target workflow environment. The method further includes the server computing system, migrating process instances from the source workflow environment to the target workflow environment. The method further includes, if a jump function of the target workflow environment is restricted to an activity sequence, a target computing system of the target workflow environment, adjusting the exported process models. The method further includes the target computing system, initializing another process instance, from the exported process models in the target workflow environment.
