The simplest way is to use Votive to generate a .SLN / .WIXPROJ and then
add the sln configuration | platform to to the build parameters in the
build definition. You shouldn't have to do any customizations in workflow
as the Default Template will work out of the box. Passing a
ProductVersion property takes a little bit more work on the msbuild side (
build parameters and preprocessor definitions in the wixproj and wixs ) but
it doesn't require any workflow changes.

Subject: [WiX-users] Best way to invoke Wix from a TFS build workflow?
I need to build some MSIs with Wix during our TFS build. Our current TFS
build is using the Windows Workflow XAML files to declare the build logic.
What's the best way to invoke Wix from there? Directly invoking the process
from an activity? Going down to a powershell script and calling it from
there? Are there any custom Wix activities to use?
