Hi all, What's the best way of doing this? Say I have an AD Group with 20K+ members (Display Name is Surname, Firstname) I want to include a user friendly way on the Form, where the Form user can find a member from the AD Group by starting to type in the users name, in the format Surname, Firstname (like the Displayname property). What is the best way to do this, i want results to appear as the user enters each character of the name, then narrow down results as each further letter is typed. I've experimented with k2 picker before but i don't think it worked UPDATE. I've tried the Autocomplete Control linked to the AD User - getusersbygroup method but it still takes about 20  seconds to load the form, but then autocomplete does work filtering the names as you type more letters. Only problem is, users won't accepet (hell i wouldn't either) waiting 20 seconds for a form to load. I then tried ticking the Live Search and delay of 2 and trigger 2, but this just results in the infamous "spinn

Hello All,I have been making lots of small changes and testing my workflow with smartforms, my workflow was created using K2 studio and for some unknown reason it has randomly started displaying a blank error list after compiling the project.I'm really stuck with this and I need to get my project back on track. Any help I would be grateful Kind regards,Martin

We are wanting to gather all approval data from our applications (K2 and other apps)  via sql scripts to publish so that all users are able to get to this to see outstanding approvals. Does anyone have the script for this handy?

I have a workflow that I'm working on right now that is for report approvals before a client meeting. The staff who is submitting the report marks a priority of normal for a report that the meeting is not scheduled yet. They use the priority of urgent if the meeting is scheduled and in days. The requirement is that for an escalation to occur after a week for those reports that have the priority of normal while an escalation in one day occurs if the priority is urgent. Can I set this up all on one activity or am I going to split this activity into two activities in order to have escalations based upon the priority?  

Hi, Has anyone setup their smartforms to send emails to NHS mail?  If so, how did you go about setting this up?  There is a link below, which details configuration to setup but was hoping for some advice before we started testing a change in configuration. https://developer.nhs.uk/library/systems/nhsmail/nhsmail-apis-sending-automated-email/  Kind RegardsSana

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to create the runtime custom filters on a list view in a way that they are not personal but available to all users? (so rather design time)  In other words, can I preset the filters as shown below or is it something every user has to do for himself?

Hi folks, maybe someone has an idea for me:I call a subform with three views.On two of these views I have list controls (auto-complete). 5 list controls in total.These need to be populated depending on a parameter of the subform. So in the initalize rule I populate the list controls with the parameter as input value.The results are correct, the list controls populate as expected. The issue is, that this takes ages.I'm talking up to more than a minute load time for a form with just those 5 list controls and a button on the third view. The data for the list controls is coming from SQL tables (one per list control).The SQL-Server itself does not show performance issues.The tables are not big, the biggest one maybe 10000 items, no more. What I've tried:Executing the rules in a batch - no difference Executing the rules asynchronously - the loading icon is not shown this long but the fields are not populated any faster. When trying to select a list control, it freezes until the population is

Hello there, I cannot delete forms or views from my production server. They were deployed using K2 Package and Deployment. When i run K2 Designer after clicling on forms/views i can only choose 'Run' and in case of form also 'Design a new Workflow' but there is no 'Delete'. Is it problem with permissions? If so then where can i change it and what level of permissions do i need to delete them? Wojtek

Hi all, Is there any solution for this topic?The post only provides a workaround and I´m not sure if that is really a good working solution for a productive enviroment. 500 errors on combinedresources.ashx:http://community.k2.com/t5/K2-blackpearl/After-upgrade-to-4-6-9-forms-are-getting-500-errors-on/ta-p/78633 Does anyone have further information on that topic?

Im having this issue, where im trying to update a list item in another site using a k2 workflow that runs when a list item updates.Source list, where K2 runs: <sitecollection1>/Site1/lists/List1List that needs to be updated: <sitecollection1>/Site2/lists/List1 The two lists have the same name, and the same structure too. the smart objects created also have the same name (List1) but in different sites.When i am designing the workflow to do this, i add a 'Update list item' action and start to configure it to update the list item using the smart object List1 in Site2. I go thru the wizard, browse to the site collection, select the site (Site2), then the list (List1) etc.. and click finish, when i run the workflow nothing happens. I go back to check the update list item action, go thru the wizard only to find that it is trying to update the smart object List1 in Site1, instead of Site2. I've updated this multiple times, but for some reason it would change back everytime. Has an

Hi all, We are trying to troubleshoot an issue where a webservice is failing to return a GUID. When looking in the K2 hostserver logs, I can find the error, but it's only showing the first part of the error: "The first 1024 bytes of the response were:'<HTML><HEAD><link rel='alternate' type='text/xml' ...." The information relating to error is missing because of the 1024 byte restriction, is there a way of increasing that limit temporarily to help us find the error? Thanks

Hi, Just had this land in my lap today... Workflow was working fine originally, but whats happened is: The request is approved by the first Authoriser (that is stored as Name of Participant) in the K2 Studio Workflow. Then there is a second stage approval and usually that 2nd Approval overwrites the Name of the Participant (1st stage Approver) with the 2nd Stage approvers name. But today, somehow when emails are sent, I include in the email, the datafield NameofParticipant, but its listing the 1st stage Approver, not the 2nd one. Any ideas?

Hi K2 community, I think this is something obvious that I'm just not seeing and could use some help.I have a picker on my SmartForm for selecting users from AD and I am storing in the database their user names. I just want to build a string of picked people's display names. That's all.  Can any one provide some input how to accomplish this? I just want to pass it to my K2 workflow to use in emails.  Users don't want to see "DOMAIN/MPOPPINS;DOMAIN/JBANKS;DOMAIN/MBANKS;" they want to see "Mary Poppins, Michael Smith, Jane Smith".  I do not want to build the string in K2 workflow unless it's really not possible to do in SmartForms.

I am trying to load record based on Id (@id as parameter) from my stored procedure using smartform but to no avail.If I used list view it works but if I used Item View no return data. Please guide as I am new to K2. RegardsDabuskol
