public bool Enabled { get; set; }

Property value

Type: System.Boolean
Returns Booleantrue if new workflow instance is allowed for this workflow association; otherwise, returns false. The default value is

Exceptions

Exception Condition
[System.InvalidOperationException]

The value is true and this workflow association is based on a non-declarative workflow template that has been deactivated. Error code: -1.

Remarks

Setting the Enabled property to false causes the workflow association not to be displayed in the user interface. This prevents users from starting new instances of the workflow. In addition, workflows that are configured to start automatically are no longer able to start automatically.

Setting the Enabled property to true does not change the values for the AllowManual, AutoStartCreate, or AutoStartChange properties. However, the option to start the workflow is again available in the user interface, and workflows that are configured to start automatically will start automatically.
