# How to attach a workflow

> **Deferred.** Activiti is wired into the codebase but no workflow is
> deployed in this dev DB. See
> [Slice 7 (deferred)](../../slices/07-workflow.md) for the same
> reasoning.
>
> The shape of the recipe (when a DB with active flows is available):
>
> 1. Set `gdsmodule.bCheck = 1` to flag the module as workflow-enabled.
> 2. Populate `gdsmoduleflow` with the flow's window configuration.
> 3. Set `gdsmodule.sVersionFlowId` and `sVersionFlowCode` to the
>    Activiti process definition's ID and key.
> 4. Deploy the BPMN process definition through the Activiti REST API
>    or the `xlyFlow` module's deployment endpoint.
> 5. Verify rows appear in `act_re_procdef` after deployment.
> 6. Test by submitting a record — `act_ru_task` should populate.
>
> Once a DB with active workflows is available, this page becomes a
> proper recipe and Slice 7 becomes a proper slice.
