Hi Ziphoh,

 

I don't think that there is a way to do this.

The risk would be to high, that the "Workflows" run in an error because there are missing information or something like this.

 

What you can do is that you restart every Workflow manually and say "Go to Activity".

But the risk that the Workflows runs into an error are also there.

 

Kind Regards

Hi Ziphoh,

  

You can migrate process instance running in one version to other version using one of the following way.

  • Use Process version migration tool from K2 market.

               One of the tool is Process-version-migration-utility (you can get more tools here)

 

  •  Write you own code to migrate process instance  version 

    This will be best solution as here you can handle the scenario like

    You have introduced new data field (this data filed was not in old version) and  this data field is required some valid data to run the process.

       This link will help you to know more on this.

 

 

Let me know if this helps you.
