If you are designing the workflow as part of an update set process, see Workflow movement with update sets before creating the workflow.

Right-click in the column header and select Configure > Workflows.

The Workflow Versions on that table appear in a list.
ClickNew.
The Workflow Version opens in New Workflow view. The Table field is filled in with the table you selected in step 1 and is read-only.
Enter Name.
(Optional) Enter Description.
(Optional) Edit conditions fields as necessary.
Click Submit.
The new workflow is added to the Workflow Versions list.
Click the workflow Name.
The new workflow is created with the Begin and Endactivities connected by a single transition.
Finish creating the workflow by adding activities, validating, and publishing so the workflow is available to other users.
