MS Excel VBO - Renamed Actions

[flavio.lara]

Hello Experts!

We are migrating from v6.10.2 to v7.3.1. On the first tests, we realized that some actions from "MS Excel VBO" were renamed. 

Example:

<!-- Until v7.2.1 -->
<subsheet subsheetid="2b3544ad-af96-4f40-9b50-16dfbe0600f1" type="Normal" published="True">
    <name>Attach to workbook</name>
<!-- From v7.3.0 on -->
<subsheet subsheetid="2b3544ad-af96-4f40-9b50-16dfbe0600f1" type="Normal" published="True">
    <name>Attach to Workbook</name>

As you can see, we have the same subsheetid but a different name (capital letter "W" on workbook).

This change is breaking the processes.

I'd like to know which option we have to adapt the impacted processes other than manually adjusting everything.

Thank you!

Regards!

Hi @flavio.lara 

The easiest/safest approach is probably to export the impacted process to a .bpprocess file. This file is just regular XML. If you have a list of the action names that are causing issues for you, you could then do a Search & Replace on the .bpprocess file for those action names and then import it back into your BP environment.

Alternatively, you could perform this directly against the database, but it's safer to go the exported file route.

Cheers,
