ChangeJobType

A step that is based on the ChangeJobType step template transfers control to the workflow specified in the New workflow property. ChangeJobType lets you reuse some of the information from another workflow to avoid repetition.

Before ChangeJobType transfers control, it creates an overrides file containing the values of the job properties in the current workflow. You use the step template SetJobPropsFromTextFile in the new workflow to set the values for the job properties to the values in the overrides file. Job property values from the steps of the new workflow are used only if the overrides file created by the ChangeJobType step does not contain values for those job properties.
