K2 blackpearl

Please guide on the workaround for the preceding rule in k2 five. It doesn't exists any more. Scenario:I have 1 task which is being used by 4 different group. after the acceptance of 1,2 or all groups, in my workflow it will succeed by executing thesmartobject to update the record status.The problem is how to determine that 1, 2 or all groups accepted the request. There should be a preceding rule? Regards 

Hi, Might have posted this before, but still can't figure how to do this. 1) User submits a form2) The form has to go for approval3) If the approver does not reply to the approval, then allow colleagues from TeamA to redirect the worklist item How is this possible for TeamA to access the worklist item and redirect it? The TeamA are not part of the original worklist destination users, TeamA also do not have administrative rights and i dont want to give them access to workspace either. If there is a way, please let me know, as I need to implement this asap. Can TeamA be made members of the Worklist destination users (without getting any emails) while the original Approver does her the email? Thanks,

Encounter issue where workflow event email notification not able to sent. Check in workspace error profile show error:Message: Could not resolve user: xxxxx; ServiceName: ADServiceDOMAIN; ServiceGuid: cf330c03-f5e5-43eb-9223-ce183df7c471; InnerExceptionMessage: ; Any idea? Thank you.

Hi all, Got a requirement to allow users to add multiple files to a form, then save the form as a PDF and send an email with the PDF (of the form) and also any attached files. Any ideas which is the cleanest way to do this? I have had a dabble and created a k2 smartobject and have the 3 fields, id(autonumber), requestid (integer) and attachment(file) I then created a "requestid" parameter on the view (just for testing gave the paramater a value of 2)Then created the editable list from the smo and edited the save button rule and changed the 3 inputs of the create,save,delete rules to save the requestid as my parameter. I ran the form, added 3 files and clicked save. This all works, i now have 3 seperate objects in the SQL table with 3 seperate ids, the files and all have the requestid=2 Creating the PDF of the form is fine as well. The requestid will be got from the output of doing a save on the form itself and retrieving the ID But my question is, how do i add all the files into the em

Hello All,    Sometimes AD puts usernames/display names in a format that is not the easiest to use. Something like Doe, John can be hard to get just the last or first name. We can use expressions to strip off the first name or last name.      Let's say we have a Display Name Property like Manning, Peyton. We only want to get Manning from this. We will use the Left and Find expressions to create this. I am using a simple Text Box to hold my values.      It would looke something like this:  Left ( [Text Box Control] , Find ( [Text Box Control] , [,] ) - 1 )     We will break this down from the inside out:     We use the Find Operator (Found in the Text folder of Operators) to search for the comma. This gives us a Integer for where the comma is located, which we can then use to split in the Left expression. We need the to subtract 1 (Subtraction sign found in Operators folder) to take out the comma character as well.     It looks like below:  Find ( [Our Control], [comma character] ) -1. 

  Issue PDF Conversion tool does not properly print on MS Sans Serif and MS Serif with 12 point font or less.     Symptoms When printing out a PDF from the PDF conversion tool, junk characters are being printed out instead of the words.      Resolution - Switching to any font besides MS Sans Serif or MS Serif will fix the issue. - Also using a font size greater than 12 with MS Sans Serif and MS Serif will also fix the issue. 

Hello K2 Experts Looking for your advise.We have Smartforms and Workflows that were created using K2 for Sharepoint API. Form data is going in sharepoint list.However, forms are taking *personal details removed* second to load. We are suspecting slower loading time might be related to K2 for Sharepoint API. We are planningto create database in SQL and forms in K2 and load k2 forms in sharepoint webpart.Will that approach help us in reducing the loading time issue?Any insight on this will be helpful.

Hi Everyone, I've got this kind of error after a server failover in my production system environment, the thing is all of my workflow are working normal, but this error seems to refer to my disaster recovery server but it appears on the production system, is there a way to check the K2 configuration to fix this issue, previously I've changed all entry refering to the DR server in the production server to clean all the configurations, now all the production server configuration are pointing to the right server but this error still occurs, by the way, I didn't backup/restore or move the database if you guys wondering. Thank You "328609221","20*personal details removed*:23:47","Error","System","2025","InternalMarshalError","SourceCode.Hosting.Server.Services.TCPClientSocket.InternalMarshal","2025 Error Marshalling SourceCode.SmartObjects.Runtime.SmartObjectClientServer.GetSmartObject, Please create a master key in the database or open the master key in the session before performing this o

Hello,  Is there a way to remove the k2 comment user display or change the appearance of the Authors name? Could we set alias instead to appear in the comment section?   Thanks

I have an editable list view using and oracle package/procedure to handle the storage of records being saved. When I click the Save button I have a simple rule that uses the execute SMO for all items that have been Added rule. On the ORacle side I was controling whether there is an error or not in the data or insert/update and passing the error message back out whereby I want that error to display on the screen as a simple message. On the oracle side I know I have an error, but K2 is not seeing any error message in the passed back parameter I am storing it in before trying to display the message. What am I missing here and how do I work with K2 to identify an error when submitting for each record being inserted? Thanks,Steve

hi, i have  two views wit two different SMO , please how do i transfer data from one view to the other nd in the process updating the SMO's .

Hi again.  It seems like this should be possible...but I can't figure it out. I have a smartform that when a button is clicked, it executes a stored procedure to update one or more work items that are selected from a list view in the form.  If an item is selected in the list view, it works perfectly, as it should.  However, when an item is NOT selected, of course you get an error because SQL is looking for an item ID which is a mandatory field in the stored procedure as it's doing an update. So, if you just click the button with nothing selected, you get: SmartObject property ItemID is a required property for selected method Execute. Value must be set.  As far as I can tell, there is no built in rule to validate if a list item is selected before a rule will fire...there's nothing in "If the form passes validation" etc.  I'm sure that there is a way, though.  Any of you smart K2 folks have any suggestions? Thanks, Rob 

Hi, Using a form with a couple of states which i reference in Workflow emails. When the users click the URL (containing the link to the form state), half the time the form hangs indefinitely on the K2 loading spinner. If the user then hits F5 again on the same URL, it loads up fine. Other times, the form loads first time Anyone else have this issue and what on earth could be causing the hang Currently collecting smartobject and trace logs, but just wanted to put the question out there for you fellow K2ers Thanks

Hi,How can I do the following by "SQL query" using K2 :1. Get the name of the owner (Person A) of an activity.2. Get list of participant(s) for an activity, in case the activity was assigned to a different person (Person B) by owner, and Person B eventually assigns the activity to Person C .

Good afternoon, I have a requirement to trace every user a task has been assigned to. This means if a single task is assigned to one user (User X), and then they assign the task to a new user (User Y), we need to be able to locate that information somewhere in the database. I need to be able to determine the amount of time the task was assigned to User X and then how long it was assigned to User Y before they completed the task. Currently, I am able to locate the task being assigned to User Y and the amount of time they took. That being said, I cannot find the data associated with User X anywhere in the database. Where can a look to get the assignment history of one task? Your help is appreciated! I am using K2 4.7. Justin

Is there a way to view which objects use a specific Smart Object? I know in designer you can expand a view and it will show all Smart Objects associated with that viewform.  

I have a workflow that has outcome rules based on controls withing the view. I added new columns to the database and updated the smart object and the service instance. I then added then saw the new fields appear in the form so I added them. However, when I update the workflow outcome rules I do not see the new items in the item reference. How do I refresh the workflow's view of the smart object to include new items when a smart object is updated? Thanks
