If a workflow has already been assigned to the folder, the name of the workflow displays and the list below it displays all of the states in the workflow.

The selected workflow is assigned to the folder or work area, and all documents at the root of the folder or work area are placed into the first state of the workflow. Existing subfolders or sub-work areas do not inherit the workflow assigned to their parent folder or work area, however new folders or work areas you create will automatically be assigned the same workflow as its parent folder or work area.
