Preserve environment-specific process settings during import (including Delegation Mode)

Hi,

currently, when a process is reimported into an environment, Delegation Mode is reset to its default value under Configuration > Notifications.

This can easily be overlooked during deployments. If administrators forget to manually re-enable Delegation Mode after every import, unintended notification emails may be sent to real users.

I suggest handling Delegation Mode the same way as User Privileges:

* Preserve the existing environment-specific value by default.
* Add an explicit “Overwrite Delegation Mode” option in the import dialog for cases where administrators intentionally want to replace the existing configuration.

Even better, I would suggest introducing a dedicated “Environment-specific settings” section in the import dialog. This would allow administrators to explicitly choose which environment-dependent settings should be overwritten during import while leaving all others unchanged.

This section could include settings such as:

* User Privileges
* Delegation Mode
* Redirect all email notifications
* Redirect all PUSH notifications
* Other environment-specific process settings that may be introduced in the future

This approach would make deployments safer, reduce the risk of accidental notifications, and provide a scalable solution instead of adding a separate import option for every individual setting.

Kind regards,
Sébastien

I support the idea of having the option to decide whether we want to override environment specific setting or not. In my opinion it works well already for the user priviledges.

What we are struggling most is the deployment mode with the redirection of email and PUSH notifications. WEBCON only asks if the deployment mode should be set, if the export has deployment mode activated.
For this reason, it is quite common for people to forget to reset the forwarding to its previous setting.
