I'm building a registration form with some checks while the form initializes, so I had a semi elaborate bunch of "if conditions" "else", but everything was executing as expected, except the disable the form. So I disabled the whole content of the rule and just threw in a "Disable the form" when the form is initializing, and not even that works.Please refer to the Rule.png for the rule composition, and refer to the Form_rendered.png for the form after opening.The form should disable itself right away, but it does not, it stays enabled. Could anyone give me an idea of why it's not disabling? Thank you

Hi, Is it possible to have a seperate AD Service for Nested AD Groups? I have an AD Group which i use for most forms, however i also have a Nested AD group within there which i want to use for a specific form only Is it possible to create a seperate AD Service instance and then click the NestGroups flag to true, and then use that Smartobject within this new form to use for when i need to specifically use nested groups? Thanks P.S. Even when testing on the current AD User Service and setting ResolveNestedGroups to True, the tester tool only brings back the AD Groups direct users, not the nested group.... Why?

I have a couple of workflows that have gone in to error. When I investigated it was because user account details were wrong so the workflow couldn't find an email hence the error.

Here is the business case... we are building a document control system. A document creation request goes thru approval process. Approval form has a link to the document that is being worked on. Requirement is, approver must not be allowed to approve document without opening it first. I put a "When a control raises a Changed event" rule to set the value of a temporary variable and check it at the time of form submit. Changed event is firing at the time form loads but it doesn't fire when approver clicks the URL. How can implement this requirement? Thanks

Hello Community,I got an error while filtering data in an editable ListView. First I load a value from a different SO. Afterwards I execute the GetList-method on my view with no input-criteria but with some filters. Most of them work but one filter on an value from an associated SO causes an error. The errormessage on the attached screenshot is in German. The translation is: "Invalid column-name 'Association_...'". Do you guys have an idea why I get this error and how I can get rid of it? Many thanks and best regards,Tim aka. Sparrow

Hi,does anyone know how the duration of a workflow is calculated?The results of the control output seems like a bit strange to me ...?Is just the start and end date used for calculation?Are only certain activities considered? Andi

Dear K2 Community ,We have taken a K2 db backup and restored it to a new server to migrate all live instances, then we installed K2 4.7 based on that restored DB to make this as our new QA K2 application server. But now we understood that in this mean time some more instances has been created in the old server, is it possible to migrate these as well ? Can we do a db backup & restore again? If this is possible, then should we run the K2 balckpearl setup manager again on new server to configure it again?

I understand that on K2 5 smartforms when you pull a SP Column onto a view that was attached to a meta data termset in SP, then this won't be tranposed into Smartforms automatically and I have to configure it against a drop down column on the form: I have done this the best I can see how (see screen shot) by using a dropdown list and adding my SP column name at the top and then have used the default settings that the smart object returned. However when running the form the column just has the 'circular' whirring icon (as though its trying to do something) but doesn't return any values, I can't see any other settings to fill in on the Smart Obect config screen, does anyone know where i cam going wrong? We use managed meta data columns extensively so need to crack this one off by heart ;-) I've scanned the turotrials and you tube but can't see any examples of using meta data smart objects Thanks!     

I have a list view where instructors click the add list view button to add a new student. The student comes into a dropdown and the entry normally works fine. If the instructor doesn't add someone, but instead clicks on the add new row button twice, I get a blank row. My question is:  How do I best prevent the blank row problem.  I was thinking of adding a color to the blank row, but I am getting confused in add/edit row values and display row values.  I would like to add some sort of conditional formatting on the field, so the blank rows show up with some color, and the other rows with values are normal. The blank rows which are added are very, very tiny and hard to see on the form. I can skip them when I go to write out valid data to the smartbox object, but it still leaves blank rows on the screen if I run a validation, and they are so hard to see. Suggestions? I don't want remote services, but trying to find an example of building this routine. Thanks! BKlaege

Hi Everyone, I have a approval matrix which has different combination of items with approvers. I want to query this list and get appropriate item based on user input.I tried using Get List Item reference and smartobjects get list item by titile method, but both these actions work with equal condition, there is no option to use contains. How can I query the list with contains option? Thanks,Prafull

  Using the answer from the post above; if I have a process escaltion that uses a go to activity outcome, where does the line go? I need this escaltion to kick in at the process level. For me this does not require a line because literally any activity could be hosting the workflow at the time of escaltion. In this instance do I just draw a line from "Start" activity or do I do a line from each activity to the failure activity? Thanks in advance
