SharePoint Designer 2010 Workflow Email alert customization

Good day all

I have a simple request. I have created a InfoPath form which I have published to SharePoint (all is well)

I have created a workflow using SharePoint Desinder and this workflow send off an email to a user , I have pasted the link to the document library in the email but would like the user to open the form from their email and not go to the document library

 Can somebody please advise

I have a a list that recieves email. I have few fields that shows me the originator: "E-Mail From" and "E-Mail Sender".

I am trying to create a workflow that will generate an auto reply to the originator but the SPD fails to recognize the email address in these two fields. It's either truncating part of it or uses the html ( href=mailto:Demo@DemoSomething.com) in the To field.

Thank you,
Tzach.

 

In SharePoint 2007 Designer, I have used the Hyperlink column to store the link "http://www.sharepoint.com/Default.aspx, Details". The details text will be shown in the Hyperlink column. Everything works fine in sharepoint 2007 Designer workflow.

In SharePoint Designer 2010 Workflow, I used the same method but the hyperlink column is displaying the full text "http://www.sharepoint.com/Default.aspx, Details" instead of only Details

Trying to start a workflow from code.  The workflow itself has been created in SPD 2010, which from what I understand, means that there is no assembly until the first time it's ran.  However, when I try to find the association record, that doesnt exist.  Is this becuase the 'code' hasnt been compiled yet?  If so, how can I have sharepoint start the just-in-time compiler for a declarative based workflow, so that can kick it off with in code? tia Rocky SandersRocky Sanders

hi, How to trigger the workflow when current time is equl to end time. I need to send an document when  current time is equl to end time. I am using designer workflows(sharepoint 2007).I have created a variable and i am able to get todays date but not able to get time by default i am getting 12:00:00 Am.i want to get current time. can u please tell me.

I Have no experience using Sharepoint Designer and I am trying to design a test workflow to see how usefull workflows will be at our company.  I have specific steps that I would like the workflow to follow but I do not know how I would go about implementing these steps in the workflow.  I have done a lot of research online and have had no luck finding anyhing sililar to what I am trying to do which makes me wonder if Sharepoint Designer is capable of doing these things. Here are the steps I would like my workflow to take 1.  Propt the user to fill out a form 2.  Send this form to a specific user 3.  Specific user then selects a person from a different department to send this form to 4.  The selected user then sends multiple documents to the person who started the workflow I know there is a collect data action but once the data is collected i do not see any action to send the collected data to a user.  Also I know there is a send document to repository action which would be usefull if there was some action to prompt the user to fill out the document at the start.  Like I have said before my Sharepoint designer knowledge extends about as far as what I have been able to teach myself so I would greatly appreciate any help I can get with this.

I am having two custom lists,  First_List(Title, ID, Status) and Second_List(Title, ID) here Status is a choice menu with values Selected and Rejected I am copying data from First_List to Second_List using WorkFlow with SharePoint Designer, When I am inserting data in first list. For that I have written in workflow action if CurrentIten. Status equals Selected  Copy item in current item to Second List now the Problem is that only the Title field is getting copied into the Second List but I am unable to copy the ID field. I am unable to understand whats the problem    

I have set up an approval workflow for a document library that has email enabled. Emails come into the document library fine, however, if an item is emailed to the library the workflow kicks off with the initiator as "System Account" rather than the person who submitted the email. This makes the error of "The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the e-mail has a valid recipient." come up. If someone submits a document directly to the library (by logging into sharepoint and submitting) everything works fine. The person submitting by email is a valid sharepoint user and the profile shows the correct email address. The Created by and Modified by fields show the correct person (rather than System Account), it's only the workflow User ID that shows incorrectly if document is emailed to library. Any help or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi, Which configuration would prevent sharepoint to send a notification when a workFlow task is assigned to a Windows Group with an email ? The same task with a single User send a notification. Thanks, Patrice      

Hi, i have a custom workflow(sequential),developed using visual studio 2010. Now, i want to make it available to sharepoiint designer 2010,as an action.Has anyone done something like dis before? I have tried creating an actions file and changes in web. config ,but when i open my designer it says it cannot find the assembly(my custom worklow). What does it mean,i have tried this method by watching solutions on internet. If anyone has done this task, kindly guide me thanks a lot :)

I created a SPD workflow on a task list in SharePoint Server 2010.

The workflow generates an e-mail to the "Assigned To" user.  When configuring the To in the e-mail, I simply references the "Assigned To" value in the list.  Is that good enough?  Will it find their e-mail?

Also, what if the Assigned To allows for multiple values?

 

 

 

Hi,

 

I want to add two columns from an existing form library into "Collect data from user" action rather than adding a new column so that when the approver opens the "Collect data from user" content type, he should be able to see those two column values from existing form library in to that "Collect data from user" content type only. Is that possible?

 

Thank you.

Hi all,

I created a workflow in designer attached to a form library. I also have a custom list "Admins" containing names of persons that serves a different purpose but would also like to be used as recipients for the workflow email everytime a new item in the form library is created.

I have been searching the net and tried out few work arounds but so far able to send to only one person in the "Admins" list. The list has a column "Admin Name" which is of type "Person or Group".

Thanks in advance!

To complete this task:
1. Review SharePoint2010.
2. Perform the specific activities required for this task.
3. Use the Open this task button to mark the task as completed. (If you cannot update this task, you might not have access to it.)

But I need to go to Workflow Task List by clicking 3 item "Use the Open this Task" , this is not a link here

or I want like "Edit this task to mark the task as completed."  Edit this task should link to Task List

How to do this? do i missing any configuration?

I have successfully done the same  in MOSS 2007.                                                               Is there  any extra&n

I have a SPD Workflow that I now want to import into Visual Studio 2010.  I believe that the workflow has to be reuseable before I can do this is that correct?

Has anyone ever converted a SPD workflow into a VS 2010 workflow?

Thanks
