You can specify whether you want users to be able to deploy SharePoint Designer workflows on a site. The default setting enables deployment of SharePoint Designer workflows. When this setting is enabled, users with Web Designer permissions can create and deploy workflows by using the Workflow Designer wizard in Office SharePoint Designer 2007.

Important:
You must be a member of the Farm Administrators SharePoint group to perform these procedures.

To enable SharePoint Designer workflows for the site

1. From Central Administration, click the Application Management tab on the top navigation bar.

2. On the Application Management page, in the Workflow Management section, click Workflow Settings.

3. On the Workflow Settings page, in the User-Defined Workflows section, click Yes to enable SharePoint Designer workflows for this site.

Note:
If you later decide that you want to disable SharePoint Designer workflows, access this page again and click No to disable SharePoint Designer workflows.
