Workflow Instance Entries Tab From Invoked Workflow

asked on March 13, 2014

I've built a shared Workflow (customer only has one repository for all departments) that handles moving, renaming, shortcut creation, and empty folder cleanup for all other Workflows by being Invoked by parent workflow.  It works great but I am hoping to find a way for a bit of added functionality.  As this invoked workflow deletes empty folders and creates shortcuts, it logs these entries in the Entries tab of the instance history in Workflow designer.  Is there a way to pass these entries back to the parent workflow so that they also show in the parent workflow's Entries tab? I realize I could pass back entry id's as tokens in the output parameter of the invoked workflow, search for those entries in the parent workflow, and then check the box to list those entries in the workflow instance detail, but I am hoping there might be an easier way.

 

Here is the parent workflow Entries tab where I would like all entries to appear (with customer specific portions hidden):

 

Here is the invoked workflow Entries tab values I would like the parent workflow to show:

 

I am hoping I am missing a check box or something that passes these values back to the parent workflow.  If not, could this be added in future functionality so that a single Workflow can show all entries it directly or indirectly affected?

There is no way to do that currently. Each workflow only keeps track of the entries it affected directly.
