Hello,
I am attempting to work through the "OpenRoads Designer - Drainage & Utilities - Fundamentals" learning path. In a video, specifically the "Exploring Drainage and Utilities Tools" video under the "Navigating Drainage and Utilities" training module, the instructor uses the "Drainage and Utilities" workflow while operating in OpenSite Designer. Unfortunately, I cannot find this workflow in OpenRoads. It is not included in the workflow dropdown list. Is this workflow only available with Opensite Designer and not OpenRoads? If so, I do not have access to OpenSite designer with my company and would be unable to complete the training or even use any of the functions included in the workflow in my design work. I cannot find any information on where I can find/install this workflow.
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks
Hi Andrew
Can you specify which commands/functionalities related to "Drainage and Utilities" are missing in OpenRoads? Also, which version of OpenRoads are you using?
There´s not a particular tool that I am looking to use but I'm curious why I don't have the workflow available. Would all of the tools shown on that workflow be accessible through the search ribbon feature?
I am using CONNECT Edition 2019 Realse 2 Update 7 Version 10.07.03.18
Could you please direct us to which workflow contains those commands/functions? Since we have to navigate through many workflows to find all the tools because there is no longer a unified interface, it would be quite helpful just to tell us where to find them, instead of asking which ones we can't find. It's possible we can't find ANY of them because they are hidden in some unintuitive separate workflow.

Maybe I'm a little confused about how workflows function in OpenRoads. Are workflows simply an arrangement of the ribbon to emphasize frequently used functions based on what design work is being done? Or are they external settings or downloads that provide new/additional functions? Apologies, I'm new to OpenRoads/Bentley and still am unsure of how the software works.
In the video the instructor is utilizing the "Drainage and Utilities" workflow. That one does not show up on my dropdown list of workflows. Since it's not there I am not sure if I will be able to complete the tasks shown in the examples. I.e., where do I find these functions if they are not on the ribbon/workflow? If that workflow is not shown on my list, am I still able to access/use all of the functions that are shown on the ribbon?
Ok, it seems we've misunderstood your use of the term "workflow", which is often used in its original meaning of going through a set of commands to achieve something.
The name "Drainage and Utilities" has been introduced in the 2020 Release 1 version, previously it was known as "Subsurface utilities". Do you have the "Subsurface utilities" workflow available in the dropdown in the Quick Access Toolbar in the left upper corner?
