Kernel Migrator for SharePoint Troubleshooting Guide - Source Workflow Template Not Present in Destination

Sep 12, 2026

This document provides a troubleshooting guide for the Kernel Migrator for SharePoint, specifically addressing the error "Source Workflow template is not present at the destination." It explains the cause of this error, which occurs when a workflow template used in the source SharePoint environment is not available in the target environment. The guide emphasizes the need for the source and target templates to match, and if a required template is missing from the target, it instructs the user to contact the site administrator to publish or activate it. A detailed explanation is given using an example: the "Collect signatures" template is present in both source and target, causing no migration issues. However, the "Approval – SharePoint2010" template is in the source but not the destination. Therefore, it cannot be migrated, and the user must ensure its availability in the target by contacting the site administrator. The document also provides contact information for support, sales, and product specialists at Nucleus Technologies.
