 Symptoms Users who have never access the SharePoint Portal before cannot save data to SharePoint list from K2 SmartForm. Diagnoses New SharePoint users were not being synced with SharePoint and K2 for SharePoint. Resolution Group sync when new users are added. Also, send the new SP users to an SP page so they can open the K2 form from there, this way SharePoint will create their user list profile and user profile on the SharePoint DB before they access K2. 

 Symptoms  Comment supprimer un utilisateur de la table des identit?s?  Diagnoses  Un utilisateur CSFMA-MG a ?t? renomm? en MAGASIN dans AD. Un workflow a ?t? lanc? et MAGASIN a re?u une notification de t?che. Mais, en cliquant sur le lien, l'utilisateur a une erreur qui indique que l'utilisateur CSFMA-MG n'a pas le droit d'ouvrir le formulaire. Je pense que K2 confond les utilisateurs parce que l'utilisateur CSFMA-MG existe toujours dans la table des identit?s et a la m?me adresse mail que l'utilisateur MAGASIN. J'ai essay? de d?sactiver l'utilisateur CSFMA-MG, mais cela ne change rien. La suppression est bloqu?e, et je ne peux pas non plus modifier l'adresse mail car la colonne est en lecture seule. Comment supprimer cet utilisateur de la table afin que K2 n'y fasse plus r?f?rence?  Resolution ISSUE: We change the login of a user in the Active directory. In the same time we change the display name and the E-Mail For Example: Before LoginA DisplayNameA EmailA After change of the user

 Symptoms Unable to search Employees from second domain in K2 Workspace after new domain was added. Diagnoses Secondary domain was added, however no restart was performed of the K2 Service which is causing domain not to appear. Resolution Local K2 Server Admin performed restart of the K2 Service. Domain was registered and can now search and add users from secondary domain. 

 Symptoms Bulk Update Offline Diagnoses How K2 does store data offline. Resolution Data cached locally.Wifi Only: this enables the automatic download of all forms (Task Forms and Application Forms) with OfflineAvailability set in the Form properties at design time, only when connected to a WIFI network. When not connected to aWIFI network, Forms can only be cached manually using cellular data.Logging out of the K2 Mobile App clears the cached (previously downloaded) Forms, this means that all Forms withOffline Availability will need to be downloaded again.If Download Forms is set to Always / WIFI in the K2 Mobile settings, the Form activity arrow will shimmer when the form is being downloaded. The form will only download once it is closed. This means that if you open a form and then lose network connectivity, and then close the form, it won't be downloaded and will therefore not be cached and available.If Download Forms is set to Manual, the Form activity arrow will be solid indicating

Hi All, How I can release "Open Work Item" when closing the form? I could find only Opne Work Item rule action in K2 smartforms. I coudln't find Release Work Item rule action in K2 smartforms.

However how can i check whether task is locked (opend) or not  in form load event. 

HiI am using SharePoint 2010.I have a SharePoint site with 10 calendars on it.  The users want each of the calendars to have the same functionality i.e. Everyone has permission to add to the calendar, but once an item has been added the item's permission needs to change so that only the creator and an admin group have access to update/delete (Contribute) to the item.I can easily create a workflow using the Set Item permissions - but this means creating 10 workflows - one for each of the calendars, and if it is ever changed I will need to make the changes in 10 places.  (I also believe once news of this functionality spreads other Sites in the same Site Collection will want to use it.)I have thought of creating a User Defined Action so I can pass the List Name and the Admin Permission group as parameters.  My first problem was that Set Item permissions is not available in UDAs - so I thought of using a web-service call,  I have tried to find which web-service to call - I think it is Lis

 Symptoms  You running older than 4.7 version of K2 and receiving exceptions: "Assembly 'SourceCode.Workflow.Functions' could not be found"   from workflows which are using functions, e.g. date calculation functions such as now() or AddDays().  Diagnoses  This is known issue which may appear in K2 versions older than 4.7 when SourceCode.Workflow.Resolver.Data.dll is erroneously registered in .NET v2 GAC.   This is happening because when K2 uses date calculation functions such as now() or AddDays() K2 code first calls SourceCode.Workflow.Resolver.Data.dll, which, in turn, supposed to call SourceCode.Workflow.Functions.dll.   Both of those DLLs are exist in K2 installation directory, so one can find another in current directory. As soon as SourceCode.Workflow.Resolver.Data.dll appears in GAC location this location takes precedence and this file being loaded from the GAC, once loaded from GAC it searches for SourceCode.Workflow.Functions.dll in current directory (not even in GAC, but in c

Hi,  I've got a very simple reminder workflow which is triggered when a date is entered into a SmartForm and a Save button is clicked:User enters a date into a SmartForm and presses the Save buttonA workflow starts and the date entered is pushed into a datafieldThe reminder activity is set to start based on the entered date datafieldAn email is sent when the activity startsThe process ends.I've attached a few screen prints to further explain what I mean. The problem I have is that the user may change that date at some point.When users make an amendment to the date, we'd like to update the date in the workflow and make it Go To the Start again. However, I couldn't find anyway of doing this codeless.The other option was to kill off the old workflow and just start a new workflow with the newdate, but again, I couldn't find a way to do this codeless either I'm guessing there just isn't a way to do either unless I get one of the .NET developers to think of something. I had a flick through s

Good day to all!Say you have a list with 18 fields.  These fields contain values that are associated by name in six groups of three.  Example: Project 1         Task 1           Subtask 1         Project 2        Task 2        Subtask 2         Project 3     Task3......The goal is to query any given row for the value of a defined variable and return which field it was found in. Example:Project 1         Task 1           Subtask 1         Project 2        Task 2        Subtask 2         Project 3     Task3......   One               Green              Cotton               Two             Blue               Wool              Three         RedIf we query the current item for a variable with value  "Two," then we know that it came from Project 2.  Ultimately we would use this as a "key" of sorts to then bring the associated Task and Subtask with it.Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance to the community.

HiI have a view which contains several dropdown controls which allow the users to filter list data.  I would like a button on the view to enable a reset of the filters so when clicked all the dropdowns are reset to blank.  This seems a simple task but I cant seem to find a rule which will do this?  Does anyone have any ideas?

How do other companies using Nintex Forms + workflow handle other users outside of IT who would like to build a form?  Or is that something that should be done at all?  We are currently receiving requests from multiple users for forms and workflows.  We are trying to determine if we should try to set up permissions to allow this, or if we should just handle them all within IT.Recommend? or no?Permission setup? Any insight from someone who does or doesn't do this would be appreciated.

Hi, How do I stop multiple email notifications being sent after a field is modified.E.g. When an submission is made to a list, I want a notification to go to person A. Then if only a specific field is changed, the workflow runs again through the 'run modified condition' send to person B.However, at the moment if person B makes an amendment, person A receives a notification again (Work flow is seeing it as an item is being created again & sending the same notification as first)I ideally want - I make a submission, one notification sends to person A. (Person A to never receive another email, no matter what is amended to any fields in future). Then person A makes an amendment, then person B receives an email only.I need it to run upon creation & when modifiedI hope that is clearThank you

Hello guys, I have a custom list and user only enters one of list field (person id- number field). Once he saves the item; one workflow will trigger and in that I have used copy item action which will copy the item from another list if person id matches. And I chose overwrite an existing item option. Workflow is copying the item but it is not overwriting?For example if user enters 1234 as person id and save; the workflow should replace this item with the item from another list. Please let me know your ideas. Am I missing anything here?

 Symptoms When IPC is called from a workflow, the IPC child process takes an hour to get started. There were no errors in the logs. Diagnoses The issue was stemming from the fact that the SQL Server time and the K2 Server time were an hour apart. Because of the difference in the time, the IPC will not be started until the server catches up. Resolution Changing the time on the servers to match each other resolves the delay.
