I am using K2 SmartForms for one our project. Form submits data to K2 Workflow. Workflow does not do any users interaction and runs only few seconds. I need to show result to the user right after workflow completion. So, scenario is:1. User enter data to K2 SmartForm and click submit.2. Workflow processing data and return result.3. User getting pop-up notification window with result message. Can I wait till workflow will be completed and get result from K2 SmartForm?

Hi K2 Community, Is there any product feature that enables migrate users with all permissions and worklist items related to them (e.g., migrate user A to user B without losing user A's tasks and work items)? I've tried to search information about this topic in the forum, but I only found threads related to user migration between AD domains: https://community.k2.com/t5/K2-Blackpearl-Forum-Posts/Migrate-AD-users-to-different-AD/m-p/85952?advanced=false&collapse_discussion=true&q=user%20migration&search_type=thread https://community.k2.com/t5/K2-Blackpearl-Forum-Posts/Migration-script-for-moving-user-to-new-domain/m-p/85821?collapse_discussion=true&page=2&q=user%20migration&search_type=thread And both were answered redirecting them to a Microsoft's guide site. Has been any update since 2016 (the date from the threads I mentioned before) about this topic? Thank you for your help in advance. 

Hi all, I am trying to use the users in an activegroup to become the dropdown values in a dropdown column.  I have achieved this using the 'getusersbygroup' method on an active directory smartobject as the data source. However, our organisation permissions sites and assigns actions via an AD 'Organisational Role' group as opposed to the direct individual user AD account.  For example we assign a task to an 'IT Manager AD Group'.  Inside this group we place the inidivdual user account of the person currently in this role.  The reason for doing this makes it fluid to manage permissions when individuals move departments or new employees start, in that the tasks are automatically assigned to the new person in the IT Manager role without any manual intervention of reassigning tasks to individuals. Issue:When I use the 'getusersbygroup' method on my drop down it will only return 'individuals inside the group and not any of the 'oganisational role sub groups' that we have put inside the main

Hi I'm fairly new to K2 and experiencing a bit of an issue. I have a form that the user wants to save and then a workflow triggers sending the form to the manager. On clicking the link in the email it loads the form with all the data that had previously been save repopulating. I have the whole form loading correctly apart from a checkbox list. The check box is populated from a seperate smartobject with a foreign key being the form GUID. I have done a get list method using the form GUID as the parameter to load the form but only the first option is loading. Any help is greatly appreciated  Thanks Steph

Hi, Normally i use a Javascript (Data label + expression) in View and Form tables to change the Table background as follows: <script type="text/javascript">$(document).ready(function() {$("span[name='TableCSS']").closest('table').css({'border':'darkgrey 1px solid', 'background':'#White'});})</script> But I simply cannot get the above to work when the Table in in an Editable List. The Tables above the Editable List have a grey background, I want to change it to white, but the above script will not apply it. I have put the data lable inside the Table and no matter where i place it, the table background remains Grey. As mentioned, same script works on Item Views and Forms, just won't work with List/editable View. I don't want to touch the CSS templates etc and prefer the Javascript method. Any ideas how why it isn't working? Thanks

Got a few text boxes and text areas on a List View and have added Watermarks to all boxes and set the text to Arial 12 -> The Text Boxes show the watermark in Arial 12 -> The Text Areas show the watermark in tiny Arial 8 (i.e. much smaller) Why is this and how do i get the Text Area Watermark to be Arial 12? If i type in the Text Area, the font is indeed Arial 12, so the problem is the Watermark font size... Bug????

Hi,I have an item view with 3 drop down list controls. The font must be Arial 12 and despite setting it on the Style, it is not applied.How can i change the Drop down List controls (just on this View) to Arial 12?The dropdown itself can be widened both horizontally and vertically via Padding, but the font stays the same when selecting an item from the list and afterwards.I do not want to change the theme, as that will affect all forms.Is there a scripty way (using a data label, literal and some script) to change the font on these controls please?Thanks,

I am pretty sure this is not possible, but I thought I'd as you experts.   Is it possible to get workflow (and/or Smartform rules) to write something like this in a memo field on a smart form as separate records onto a database table using the 'create' SmartObject method?  I'd like the end user to be able to copy/paste a list of document control numbers either from an e-mail or a spreadsheet into the field, and then click "Save" or something and have the list of items get written as individual work item records in the database.   I've experimented with Create Reference and For Each, but can't get it to work.   Any thoughts? Rob 

We got the requirement of migrating SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2016 where the existing application is having around 15 workflows build on K2 (version 4.5). As a part of migration we migrate the content from 2010 to 2013 and 2013 to 2016. We are totally new to K2.Is it possible to migrate from 4.5 to 4.7 by maintaining the workflow instance state? If yes, what is the procedure.

Hi, Has anyone had it in the Management Console of the K2 Workspace where servers that don't belong show up on the left? The attachment is of our Development (K2DV02) environment K2 Workspace. The servers highlighted in yellow should not be there. I'm wondering how is this controlled? I've tried the k2 helpfiles but haven't come up with much. We are on 4.6.10 Thanks, Rebecca

I would like to be able to stack some fields in a list view column.  I.E. have one control above another control within the same column in the same row.  Is this possible?

Hi, Is there any technique on a List view to mark items as done? For example, i have a Summary List View, when user double-clicks a record (row), it opens a form in a seperate window and they do whats needed in that form and close it. Then they go back to the Summary List View and do the same with the next. Is there a way of highlighting/change colour of completed rows in the Summary List View or put a Check box next to each record so the User knows which ones have been actioned? The List is Not editable, just used to double-click to open a record and mark as done. Thanks

Hello.   First of all, I would like to say how much I have appreciated the support of this community over the last year in our K2 implementation.  The advice I've received here has been invaluable.   So, here's my next question: I have a simple workflow that fires off a stored procedure in my database which basically runs a query to pull in data fro a specific report.  I want the stored procedure to hit around 2:00am PST when no one is working.  Because the end result of the stored procedure running is about 2500 new records in a specified table with a specified date stamp, it's pretty obvious when it runs and when it doesn't.  So, I created this workflow, and then ran the scheduler to tell it to run.   I am attaching a couple of screenshots...one of the schedule and one of the report that says it's run at least 7 times.   So, in the morning when I go and look at the database table that SHOULD be populated with new records...there are none. HOWEVER...when I then go into the K2 Manageme

Hello All,I'm implementing a custom user manager, and I've done it as described here : https://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2blackpearl/icg/4.7/default.htm#Configure/UM-Changing.htm#RefreshUMc  which is working fine, I can authenticate in the workspace using the new security label and retrieve the users, but I noticed that if I open the managed users worklist I do not see the subordinatesm, running the Smartobject methos "GetUsers" I noticed that in the manager field I get the Distinguished name instead the user name, and If I run the "Get User Details" method I get it correct, the manager's user name. This is my LDAP Mapping<K2LdapMapping K2Name="Manager" FullOnly="true" LdapName="manager" ObjectType="System.String" SearchQuery="(&(objectClass=Person)(objectCategory=User))" SearchResultProperty="samAccountName" /> I wonder someone knows a way to set and retreive the manager's user name instead the distiguished name in the "Get Users" methos os the User SO from URM service  

I have to implement a logic to check if a document exists in a document library using a key field. If document exists, update a custom meta data column. But when document doesn't exist, workflow throws error. How to bypass this error if document doesn't exist?Thanks!

Hi All Is there a proper method or function to "uninstall" a K2 smartstarter and remove all the associated views, smartobjects, forms, workflows ? We've installed a few to try them out but now dont want them all  thanksPaul

Hello Community, Is there a way how I can load multiple single items into a picker control? Szenario:-User picks multiple user in a picker control-Save items with a for each rule (I need single items for a different Drop-Down control)-Load users for editing into picker control (but how?) I hope it is clear what I mean. Thank you in advance. Best RegardsAlex 

Hi, I have a date column on the smartform that is showing in US format, when I save the item to the SharePont smartobject it shows on the list view in UK format, but on the smartform it shows in in US and I can't find any setting to set the locale for the date. This I guess will also apply to workflow conditions/actions I set based on a date criteria so need to get it right :-) Can anyone advise where you tell K2 that your platform is in the UK datewise? Thanks, Julie :-)

Is there a possibility to change filter labels (I mean "Selected Filter" and Quick Search") because I would like to give the Polish name?

We implemented a new process using K2 at the first of the year. This process once approved, inserts into an existing database where we track our projects. The next phase of this process was once the status changed in the existing database it then goes and changes the status of the record in the K2 database where the new process is and starts a new workflow for another process. This all works great except for records that were already in the old process that weren’t part of the original K2 process but of the old process. How can I get pre-existing records in the existing database to run in the new K2 process?

Is there anywhere in the K2 database or reports that capture when a particular task was allocated to a user? I've found good levels of detail on when a task is redirectred, completed, and released but not when it is set to "Open".

We currently support several existing K2 Blackpearl/Smarforms environments.  Each environment has its own set of service accounts that are used to run Windows Services and IIS application pools.  Our security engineering department has asked us if any of these service accounts can be converted to Group Managed Service Accounts (gMSAs).  Does K2 support using these service accounts to run services in K2 Blackpearl 4.7?

I have a SharePoint site with a document set. Users will have the capability to create multiple document sets (document set 1, document set 2, etc).  Does K2 allow setting permissions on a specific document set (document set 1, 2, etc)?
