K2 Designer for SharePoint - Reuse a shared Workflow

In K2 for SharePoint 2010, shared workflows can only be seen by users to whom the workflow has been shared with in the Sharing and Reuse Setting page. If the workflow is not shared with you, you will not be able to see it. If you are the process owner, you will always see the workflow, even if it’s not shared.

Sharing a Workflow allows the specified Workflow to be used in other form libraries and by other users who have the necessary rights to create Workflows. The K2 Designer for SharePoint Workflows are designed to be reusable, saving development and implementation time. The ability to manage who accesses certain Workflows can be controlled by creating a level of security for K2 Designer for SharePoint Workflows. To use an existing Workflow in a different document library or by a different user than the one it was built in, the Workflow must be shared.
