Global Workflow XML Element Reference

By using global workflow, you can minimize the work that is required to define and update work item fields and global lists that many types of work items and team projects share. With global workflow, you can define and update fields and global lists that apply to all types of work items in a team project or a team project collection.

If you want only to manage global lists for a collection, see Define global lists.

Global Workflow Syntax Structure

You define the global workflow by using the GLOBALWORKFLOW element, which supports FIELDS (Definition) or GLOBALLISTS elements as children, but not both.

Specify FIELDS:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<GLOBALWORKFLOW>
   <FIELDS> 
      <FIELD> . . . </FIELD>
   </FIELDS>
</GLOBALWORKFLOW>

Specify GLOBALLISTS:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<GLOBALWORKFLOW>
   <GLOBALLISTS> 
      <GLOBALLIST> . . . </GLOBALLIST>
   </GLOBALLISTS>
</GLOBALWORKFLOW>

FIELD (Definition) Element

You use the following syntax to define the data fields within a global workflow. This syntax shows the FIELD (Definition) element format and all optional child elements. For more information, see FIELD (Definition) element reference and All FIELD XML elements reference.

Note

You cannot specify the HELPTEXT element for a field that you define in a global workflow.

<FIELD name="fieldDisplayName" refname="fieldReferenceName" type="String | Integer | Double | DateTime | PlainText | HTML | History | TreePath | GUID "
syncnamechanges="true | false" reportingname="reportingDisplayName" reportingrefname="reportingReferenceName"
reportable="Dimension | Detail | Measure" formula="avg" >
   <ALLOWEDVALUES> . . . </ALLOWEDVALUES>
   <ALLOWEXISTINGVALUE />
   <CANNOTLOSEVALUE />
   <COPY />
   <DEFAULT />
   <EMPTY />
   <FROZEN />   <MATCH />
   <NOTSAMEAS />
   <PROHIBITEDVALUES /> . . . </PROHIBITEDVALUES>
   <READONLY />
   <REQUIRED />
   <SERVERDEFAULT />
   <SUGGESTEDVALUES /> . . . </SUGGESTEDVALUES>
   <VALIDUSER />
   <WHEN>> . . . </WHEN>
   <WHENNOT> . . . </WHENNOT>
   <WHENCHANGED> . . . </WHENCHANGED>
   <WHENNOTCHANGED> . . . </WHENNOTCHANGED>
</FIELD>

You can use these elements to enumerate a list of values that appears to the user as a pick list or a drop-down menu of items. For more information, see Define pick lists.
