Hi, Can anyone suggest how best to deal with this: User submits a form, which send a Client event (authorisation) to the named Authoriser Authoriser goes on holiday, so the workflow is stuck. Is is possible to report the status of the request on a Admin form (only accesable to named administrators/office staff)  and display that the request is with the Authoriser, but then allow them to redirect the Authorisation to someone else? Rather than going to workspace, basically can office admin staff be able to redirect approvals stuck in the system? Thanks, 

I am creating a proposal manager applictation for the organisation and one of the requirement is that the proposal devlopment team can submit a request for clarification regarding to the proposal to the proposal originator and the proposal originator can then submit a reponse to the proposal development team. The process may go through a series of iterations before the proposal is finally approved. The proposal development team need to keep the history of the requests and responses. I have set up a form to to the request and response but it only saves the mosts recent request and response. I need to be able to save all the requests and responses. Could anybody advise the best way about doing this i.e. saving the requests and responses history Regards Andrew

 Hi all, I would like to find out if someone knows if anything is available on the K2 market that I can use to to retrieve the sub-structures (hierarchical structure) of the OU levels in Active Directory?   I did find an AD Smartobject method - i.e. "AD Organizational Unit" but it only returns the top level of OU's. We want to create a user in AD with the ActiveDirectoryEvent in a workflow, and the problem here is that the users are created in various OU's - depending on the Campus, Department etc.  I'm using a smartform that retrieves most of the new user's biographical information from our ERP system and then on submit wants to start a workflow that will create the user in AD, Exchange & Lync (will use custom code that runs a powershell script for the Lync user creation). Therefore we need to create the OU string beforehand and then send the string value to the ActiveDirectoryEvent in the workflow.  Below an example of how the string will look: "OU=Users, OU=IT System Development

Hello all, after 2 weeks of trying to get K2 to work properly, I ran into another issue. I setup a very simple workflow which works fine when run on the K2 server, but from outside I get "Server is not configured for Windows Authentication" when I try to run this workflow. Everything else works fine - data connection to SQL server etc. From outside I use windows (login-less) authentication and do not use SharePoint. How do I enable Windows authentication for WorkFlows or how do I disable WorkFlow authentication completely?thank you

Hi, Anyone know of a javascript that will put a Double-Border around a Table control? I need it to enclose some text.... I can put a Double border around a Label, but the problem is that i can't fit all my text in a single Label, so there i will need two labels, but then you can't have a Double-Border with both labels inside... So my idea is to somehow Have a Table with the two labels inside, then somehow use code to put a Double around the table.... It's only a daft thing, but i try and get my forms to look tidy ;-) Mr Mustafa aka JavaGuru gave me this one a while ago:<script type="text/javascript">$(document).ready(function() {$("span[name='TableCSS2']").closest('table').css({'border':'darkgrey 1px solid', 'background':'#White'});})</script> This works for a single line border, but any ideas how to make it a Double Line Border?

Create a category that you want to use to create the picker control.    Search for UMUSer in K2 Designer.       Right click the UMUser SmartObject and select Move To…  The category that you created earlier.       Decide what Properties you want to get back after you perform your search search.  I will use Get User method, which requires a Label as input.       I tested this in the Smart Object Tester Utility  I will get back FQN, Name, Description, Display Name, Email, Manager, and Object SID.  I will use Display Name as the display in this example       Create an Item View. I chose not to use the UMUser SmartObject as the data source, since I want to get the data to save somewhere else. (I won't show saving the data in this example)     Drag and drop the picker control on top of the form.  In the Properties Pane  Click on the SmartObject for the Data Source  Choose the UMUser SmartObject,  Get Users Method  Filter the properties that you want.  I choose the Name as the Identifier  And

Just upgraded our development environment to 4.7 We have custom workflow solution. I tried deploying this using both Visual Studio and K2 studio which resulted in the following error:Task Error: System.Exception: Forms Generation publishing has failed: Please ensure that if you are deploying this project that you are not attempting to do so on client. Deployment package needs to be created and run on the server in order to publish forms correctly. Any suggestions

Hi, Got form properties set to Read only, but i want to have a view at the bottom with a text area enabled, how do i do it? The only i can think of is making each view read only, then leave my last view enabled. I tried read only form, then enabling View properties, but that doesn't work, any ideas?

Hey there,we've encountered some performance issues while publishing new Service Objects via the Visual Studio. We often receive the "Timeout"-error. I was looking through the documentation and the forum und found a solution where you should increase the timeout-time. That gets me rid of the error but it doesn't fix the performance-issue.  While looking at the documentation in the given example I saw that they used more than one Service in a Service Object. I am wondering if there is a difference with the performance level if you use more services (and methods) in one Service Object than always creating a new one. We have about 20 Service Objects in our Environment but all of them contain only one service and mostly one to two methods. BTW: We're still on 4.6.11 but going to upgrade to K2 5 in the near future. Best regardsTim

Can someone please help me to understand the Sync group functionality of sharepoint k2 app? I understand that it is a background activity runs once in 8 hours. What does it do? Does it get all the sharepoint groups and users to K2? Which is/are the smart objects responsible for performing this action in the background. When a workflow is triggered with user context, how it gets authenticated?

Hi K2 community: Anyone know what the below symbol means when creating a method binding where the service is a database reference?In my case 

Hello, We are having problems with the k2 mobile android app. We published the k2api as pass-through and other k2 subsites with ADFS as a preauth. method but when we log on to the mobile app and try to open a smartform, the "browser" in the app opens the STS site but can't redirect us to the smartform. We had the same problem when the entire site was published as pass-through - the user would open the smartform but the rule to redirect the browser to a different page (Internet or Intranet url) wouldn't action. Is this a general problem with the application or a setting in the k2api config? Best regards, Veronika
