Changing the Default Database in ArcCatalog

This topic applies to ArcGIS for Desktop Standard and ArcGIS for Desktop Advanced only.

When there are many Workflow Manager Database connections configured on a local system, the Workflow Manager applications will access the default database connection. This is denoted with a check mark on the connection in the ArcCatalog Workflow Manager Databases node.

Steps:
  1. Start ArcCatalog and ensure that the Workflow Manager extension is enabled.
  2. Right-click the Workflow Manager Database node you want to activate and click Set as default database.

    The default database for Workflow Manager will be denoted with a check mark.

    Default Workflow Manager Database
    The check mark shows which Workflow Manager Database is the one the client applications will access when open.
