Global Data Not Adding Correctly When Published

I am using the example of the "Concurrent Workflow - Majority Approval" found here: http://www.screencast.com/t/tzClKVBC.

This example works perfectly in debug mode, however, it is not working once published.  In debugging the problem, the global counter variables ("HowManyApproved", "HowManyRejected") are not getting updated.

I found this previous discussion on global data: https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/global-data-property-question.

Is this the same issue?  If so, what is the work-around?

Thanks,

Chris

are you making certain to

are you making certain to change/set/confirm the global values during the publishing process?  the values aren't always updated automatically; you have the opportunity to adjust them during publishing.  in WF 7.1 it's the second page of publishing, just after you choose the publish target.

Global Data

I believe Chris is referring to values posted to the Global Data tab. The confirmation during the publishing process appears to be for values on the Properties tab only (at least in my 7.1 build). I think this is the same bug in the article Chris linked to above.

This is a defect that exists

This is a defect that exists in both Workflow 7.0 & 7.1. The issue will be resolved with the release of SP2.
