I have a specific use-case in Mobile offline involving workflow that I could use some help with. Imagine I have a form with basic header information.Then I have a detail section where the user can attach multiple pictures.This form is to operate offline. When trying to save the master/detail stuff from smartforms and then starting the workflow, I have no way of getting the primary key of the smart box save I just did. This is all in batch mode. If I try to start the workflow and pass the form data to the workflow via fields, I can save the master information, server side in the workflow to get the primary key back, but how do I handle the images? I tried to pass the image to a process data field and then save the detail record to the smartbox, but it doesn't seem to save correctly as an image. I wish I could just do this master header/detail save in the smartforms, but I don't get the key back.Anybody else run into this issue? How do you handle it? How do I handle images when pass

Hello, I would like to have a SmartObject that displays data from our Microsft Dynamics 2013. And I would like to have data from several entities in the same SmartObject but I can't find how to create the relationship between the entities in K2. For exemple, I want to have a Smartobject that displays information of a contact (Contacts entity) like name, email, phone number and in the same row, information of the contact's parent account (Account entity). How can I configure a relationship between Contact and Account entities in K2? I have created all my CRM entities as Smartobjects using the CRM Service Type in K2. Smartobjects associations doesn't seem to work for what I want. I also tried the Composite Smartobject but as my two Smartobjects come from the same service, it doesn't seem to work either. Any help would be really appreciated!
When using the REST Service Broker with a Swagger 2.0 definition, the put operation is failing, while the get operation is successful. Testing the put operation in the Swagger Editor, both operations are successful.

Hi There, I have client event activity with three destination sets. I have destination set rules and I have planned per destination adn created a slot for each destination. The outcome for the acttivity is approve or reject. I have outcome rules set thus: All Slots = Action Result ApproveAndAll SLots = Action Result Reject My use case is that, for example, if all three destination sets are included in the activity, and all three approve the use the approve outcome in the activity.If any one of the responses is reject I want to use the reject outcome in the activity. So I changes the outcome lin rule for reject to: At Most 1 = ActionResult Reject So what is happening now is the process is not waiting for all slots to be complete and as such is going down the reject outcome as soon as anyone responds and irrespective of the Action result. This makes sense as the activity needs to wait for the responses, common issue, seen it loads on this forum. So the genral answrs is "Add a suceeeding
HI There, I have a workflow that kicks of other workflow depending on smartobject values from a smart form. So kind of like I want something, but who approves the thing I want depends on what I want choose in a smart form. I thinking in terms of who (group of people) shoudl be a sub process feeding into a parent process. So each who has an approval process that can be resused for other processes. In terms of the parent process my [problem how does the parent process determin the outcome of the sub process? I have been looking at IPC for a solution but info is pretty thin regarding this use case therefore first question is: Is this possible using IPC for this purpose? and if so please, provide as much info as possible as I cannot find anything about this specificlly usiong the usual resources, all the material I have covered seem to suggest that this is not possible but it seems like a reasonable use case to be able to determine an outcome from a sub process in a parent. The actual us

1. In SQL Server Management Studio create a new Database 2. Create a new table within Database 3. Add a new Column and then “Set Primary Key” Note: If you don’t set a primary key, you will get an error when trying to create smartobject. 4. Apply proper Permissions for the DatabaseNote: If you don't have the proper permissions, you wont be able to connect to DB. 5. In K2 Management under “Integration” find "Service Instances" Note: This is where you will create a new Instance for SQL Service Instance. 6. Create New Services Instance for SQL Service Instance Note: Database * should be the name of the SQL Database you are referencing. Also make sure “Generate SmartObjects for this Service Instance” is checked. Note: If all settings are correct the above message should appear. 7. Check to make sure new SmartObject was created in SQL Instance folder in Management 8. Test to see if you can execute "List" to display your column with no error Note: You can a

I get DeserializeToArray does not exist as a method of this SmartObject Instance when running billSchedule.MethodToExecute = "DeserializeToArray"; The "DeserializeToArray" method only shows up in the smart object list methods, and not the smart objects methods. How am I supposed to retrieve a datatable from this smart object in code?
Trying to learn about SMO within SQL, went trough some issues when found the Imported data needed some Primary Key, so decided to create another table this one with the primary Key autogenerated then just populate data with: CREATE TABLE New_Table ( ID int NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY, Category varchar(255),... ....blah blah blah more columns.... ) Then to populate the data&colon; INSERT INTO New_Table SELECT * FROM Original_Table And voala we have a new table with the Auto Generated Primary Key. But the problem since I created the smart objects and also some views, when I realized did not have the indexes, went to SQL and Delete the original tables. No I ended with Orphaned Categories that can't be deleted. Then when right click and try to delete... I wonder if there is a way to run a SQL Query to clear the orphanned Items within the Database to prevent this issues... or something within designer that allow overwrite the deletion
Just thought i'd start up a thread on your thoughts on upgrading to v4.7? For me, it means a new server buiild, as i'm currently on Server 2008 which isn't supported by v4.7 How has your upgrade gone?Any bugs or issues with your existing forms not working etc?What has performance been like since upgrading? Anyone had issues migrating projects from v4.6.11 to v4.7?What is the best improvement for you since upgrading to v4.7? Is there anything you miss from the older versions? Thanks
I have tried looking at some other articles to establish whether any of the below actions are possible, but the responses consistently start with "not possible out of the box" so I thought I'd group them together and get a wider response. In 4.7, how do you: Store collection of results returned by a smartobject call (designer or studio) Copy/paste rules (designer) Copy/paste expressions (designer) Copy/paste controls (designer) Undo design changes (designer) Bulk update controls i.e. style, state, location (designer) Find references to a parameter/rule/control (designer or studio) Specify column widths explicitly, rather than dragging each one to a certain percentage (designer) Add buttons to a list view (designer) Count the number of items in a choice control (designer) Pass variables in to rules (designer) Dynamically add controls to a view (designer) Center align column headings (designer) Add additional columns to the worklist control (designer) Sort list of parameters alphabetical
Hello all, I need to store some user details (variables) such as the user's ID, his manager's ID etc. In a classic web app, I would store these in a session variable, how can I do it here? I read some comments about using a smart object for that, but smart object is just a data table and I don't want to read from this table each time I refresh a page. What options do I have? If I could for example write the desired value in the SystemValues.CurrentUser.Name object, that would work fine, but does not seem like I can write to these SystemValue objects?Thanks
Hello all,I am looking for the best method to load multiple values into a list display. At the moment the values are saved in the primary smart object as Foreign ID's in a multivalue data type. The list display references a secondary smartobject, when I populate the list display I attempt to filter out the results based on the ID's, unfortunately I return the following error: However, when I have a list with only one item selected the method above works with no issues.
