I usually saved the macro in the folder of the parent workflow and insert it from the workflow.
so it will have relative path and will be packed together when export the workflow.

Hi @k3pineapple
It sounds like you're looking for "Workflow Dependencies". This can be found under Options > Advanced Options. The workflow dependencies window shows all macros, files, databases, or other connections the workflow has configured in the tools. Macro file paths can be edited there to be relative to the workflow location, use UNC, be absolute, or changed entirely.
I often use this if I have a macro in my workflow that I made a new version of, but don't want to re-insert. I open workflow dependencies and change the path (hit "test" to make sure it's a valid path) and that's it!
