Hello all, I'm curious to find out if there are any out of the box integrations with Yammer or if I would have to create my own Service Broker.  If I would have to create my own has anyone done it before or have any good documentation to start?  This would be the first time I've created a Service Instance. Thanks!

Hello everyone, we have recently upgraded K2 connect 4.6.11 to 4.7.2. Following the upgrade, BAPI smartobject data returns integer number in decimal format. Say for instance if we execute Employee BAPI from SAP console, it returns employeeID as “1234”. But when I execute the same BAPI from K2 connect smartobject, returns data in “1234.00000” format. The same K2 connect smartobject was working fine returning the data in integer format before the upgrade. Does anybody have come across the same issue before, any suggestions/hints are much appreciated. Thanks,Prajwal Shambhu

Hello, I have to creating a vacation calendar for the manager can approve or deny the request. I have the vacation calendar set up and is working good. However, I now need to have the system also create a meeting for the requester and the manager for that day. Our wise “IT” has disabled the nice K2 “send meeting request” and now have to find another way. I did it in our old SharePoint site with a Nintex workflow. I have tried to take some of that code and update it for the new K2 but still cannot get it to work correctly. Was wondering if anyone has been able to get a K2 workflow to do that? I’m starting to go crazy!! Thanks

Hi, I have a List view connected to the Task SMO - get workitems method. The List View shows in Actioner Name field the format K2:domainAccountID, I want to display the Actual AD Display Name in the format Surname, Forename (this is how it appears in AD) I added a new Datalabel field to the List and did an expression on it to display domainAccountID (trims out the K2 part i tried a Smartobject method on ADUSER SMO? using the Datalabel field as input but its not working. Any step by step guides on this? Thanks

So one SMOA has the ID in format K2:domain/userA the other SMOB has the ID in format domain/userA How on earth can you get this to work when creating a compositive if SMOA doesn't match each other when doing Method bindings. I have tried all sorts, no joy at all, some smartobejcts use K2:, others use K2 and then some just have domain, is there are way while doing the mappings to get round this? My lookup won't work because SMOB expects it to be the format domain/userA, but SMOA only have fields showing K2:/domain/userA Any ideas? Thanks

It is taking approx 5.4 s to load.  Currently the Performance of the Form is as below  Most of my views contain static information which I am pulling from the Application Database using SmartObjects.

Hello All, I like to create something similar to what the SmartBox does. I have SmartObjects created from SQL Server Database tables. Every time I want to add more columns to the table, I have to add the column on the Database table and refresh my SQL Server Service Instanc to get the new Column and also update my SMO. The Question now is: Is there a way to create something similar to what K2 SmartBox Service does. Such that, everytime I want to add new column for my Database Table, I don't have to go to the Database, but just open up the SmamrtObject from K2 Designer and Add the new columns? Thanks All.

Yes, we all know K2 Forms is being used for much more than originally designed... and seems like everybody want to find the magic tool to enforce and automagically do the work to keep everybody on track. Some departments like to have the purchase agreements and like to go back and forward, using K2 + Word Broker looks like the perfect fit, considering that K2 PDF Broker does not let you use templates, put header/footer and keep control over the layout. so is time to expand our horizons and look for more alternatives. Word Broker from Mustafa has been around for a while, like is simple and works... not sure about the SQL storage still having some issues to work out... in order to render the file back to the user in the browser. Another Broker in town is the Word Document Generator Service Broker from Link Solutions. this seems to be very easy and flexible, like the ability to have until 200 templates and render data from an array using the XML functions from MS-Word and this means your

Hi there, I'm attempting to create a view to help filter down a large library based on 4 different criteria.  What I'd like to do is use a wildcard so that if a filter is left blank, it will not exclude results. Example:Property CodeTenant CodeTitleID If a user enters 2 of the 4 criteria, nothing comes back because nothing meets all 4 criteria.  Is there a way to wildcard a filter without having to create a complex rule set to take in all combinations of filters? Thanks!

Hello all, I've got a smart form with a view that has fields for an email: date, subject, and verbiage.  I've got validation on the smartform that prevents null entries on all of these fields, and it is working properly.  However, a user still can enter a blank space in the subject and verbiage fields and this is accepted by the workflow. I've tried setting the validation on the fields to alphanumeric (no spaces), alphanumeric (with spaces), but that hasn't worked.  I've also set up an advanced rule that checks if the subject or verbiage fields start with a " " value but that doesn't let any entry proceed, even a valid one. Any ideas or suggestions on how I can get this validation to prevent a user from putting a space into either field?

Hi everyone, I a have bunch of rules in one button in a form  (all the rules are created in the form not the view),  and Im trying to create another button in another form, so is there a way to copy the rules from the first form to second one. and to let you know I'm using the same view in both forms. Thank you so much.

Hi all, Is there any way of displaying the TASK LIST for a Process in a Smartform..... basically without having to use the clunky Management URL? In the management URL, you have to manually navigate to a process instance, then click the task list to see the active tasks. Is there a way to see these tasks in a Smartform instead and have a button on the form to redirect the task for example... (i can see the tasks if i give the user admin process rights) Must be a way, come on K2ers....

Hi All, K2 workspace offers an option for a request to be delgated to someboday else. It is present under Managemetn Console -> Worklists.When i looked at my environment, a user had to added as Admin in Workspace before he/she is able to use the Delegate functionality. But if we add user as admin, it exploses them to many other functionalities which we do not want them to have access to.So my question is - is there any way using which we can restrict users so that they only have access to Delegate functionality and nothing else? Also, will they be able to delegate requests which are assigned to that particualr user only? (They should bot be able to delegate requests which are not assigned to them). Please let me know if my question does not make sense.  Thanks,Rohini

Hi, My company is going to make a bussiness split, and we would like to have separate instances of k2 for each stream. Is there any way to migrate both 'half's of the database to new instances? even if necessary process by process ? Thanks in advance

The oob Active Directory service is useful, however there's no way to retrieve data fast enough to use certain controls,so I made a workflow that was supposed to grab all the AD users and write to a local smartobject a couple attributes, just username, display name, and email.My thought process was, if it's a local smartobject with way less attributes/properties than the real AD and without having to query AD I could perhaps use autocomplete and some of the other neat controls that help in making users enter less data manually.However when I ran it, it was extremely slow, writing one user every minute or so, it's gonna take a while to write 10k+ users that way. Does anyone have a better method or something similar they have done?

Hi, I created smartobject from a SQL stored procedure with linked Oracle server inside:   This smart object doesn't return anything but when I run this stored procedure under the same account I have for that Service instance I can see the data. I will really appreciate any help. Thank you

Property Folder does not exist on method CreateListItemAccess_Certification_Workstream'. Anyone faced similar kind of issue or any idea why this is happening so? Thanks in advance,Nidhya
