Hi Team,

I have SharePoint group (Named: EU) who will have the permission for adding items only in list. But i am creating a unique id with help of Workflow when ever item is created and set that value to my Title column. Who is having the edit permission they are able to update / set the field value. For the Normal user, could not able to update it. So  i am managing with workflow like below.

  1. Setting permission to edit item.
  2. Updating the value to Title.
  3. Removing Edit permission to that item.

In the above process, The User not able to update the item, when ever item is created by using workflow.

Getting the bellow eror: 

Workflow Details

Top of Form

The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.

Access Denied

make sure you commit pending changes for this.

see this:

Designing your Workflow - Commit Pending Changes Action NW2010 & NW2013

"

The SharePoint workflow engine doesn’t necessarily commit batched operations in the order they are displayed on the designer. For example, if you had the following actions in this order:

  1. Set item permissions action (Nintex)
  2. Update list item action (Microsoft SharePoint)
  3. Set permissions action (Nintex)

 

These would actually execute in this order:

  1. Set permissions action (Nintex)
  2. Set permissions action (Nintex)
  3. Update list item action (Microsoft SharePoint)

"

once you set permissions and update the item, then commit, then change permissions again
