How to specify parameters for embedded workflows outside parent workflow?

Options

Hello,
I'm designing a re-usable workflow (parent = test for community), which uses another re-usable workflow (child = Dynamic Flag).
The child workflow requires two inputs specified at runtime - "source A" and "source B".
I want to be able to choose the values for "source A" and "source B" when dragging the parent onto the canvas - not the child.

At the moment, when I want to add Dynamic Flag to 'test for community' it prompts me to choose the values for source A and source B.

I want to be able to choose these when adding 'test for community' to a workflow.

Any ideas how to do this?

    Hi Emilia

    You should be able to do what you want to do.

    I think you are confused about the pop up in your second screenshot. You said it "it prompts me to choose the values for source A and source B."

    This pop up is not doing that. It is asking you to map a column, i.e. there is a mis-match between the columns you are supplying (from the "calling" Workflow) and the columns expected in the re-usable Workflow. It wants you to map in the correct column.

    Does this help?
