K2 blackpearl

Hello K2 Community - We will be implementing K2 4.7 soon and I am working on pulling together our internal K2 governance. I would greatly appreciate any guidance you would be willing to provide. Maybe I am approaching this wrong but I cannot seem to find anything related to this topic online. We would like our Citizen Developers to have access to K2 Designer for SharePoint and SmartForms. I understand how to disable Wizards but how do I disable Citizen Developer access to K2 Designer if they need access to SmartForms? K2 Designer provides too much in terms of features/functionality as all of the work the Citizen Developer will be doing will be SharePoint centric. What are your thoughts? How would you define these? Thank you in advance for your time. Brian

Hello K2 Community - We will be implementing K2 4.7 soon and I am working on pulling together our internal K2 governance. I would greatly appreciate any guidance you would be willing to provide. Maybe I am approaching this wrong but I cannot seem to find anything related to this topic online. Has anyone launch their own internal K2 User Group for their Citizen Developers? Do you as part of internal IT participate in any local K2 User Groups? We are planning on providing internal K2 training but it will take ongoing support in order to make our K2 implementation successful. Thank you in advance for your time. Brian

Hello K2 Community - We will be implementing K2 4.7 soon and I am working on pulling together our internal K2 governance. I would greatly appreciate any guidance you would be willing to provide. Maybe I am approaching this wrong but I cannot seem to find anything related to this topic online. Where are your Citizen Developers developing their K2 solutions? Are you allowing to develop in production or do you make them use a lower environment and then deploy to production? How do we manage this from a Citizen Developer perspective? What are your thoughts? Have you defined a process for this management of Citizen Developer source code? Thank you in advance for your time. Brian

Hi, I'm using K2 for SharePoint, while I'm creating Item using K2 workflow it showing created by value as SharePoint app.How to change this metadata value.  

Anyone try this to see if its a bug? I've got a message box on a Subview which comes up when a user clicks submit (it basically checks for missing information) The message box pops up, but when you click OK, the Subview goes grey (like it is disabled) and then you have to click the subview to enable it. -Sometimes mouse clicking doesn't even work and the subview remains grey and you can't close it.... I've tried putting in a "Stop Rule execution" in the rule to see if that would work, but it doesn't... Why doesn't clicking OK on the message box not take you back?

HI, I am using k2 for SharePoint where I added a k2 management smart-object methods to stop, start, delete workflow instance in the smart-form rule.Same I have to do in the workflow. Is there any way to stop instance using workflow.Or, is there any way to add that k2 management smart-object methods in a smart-object tab in the workflow designer. thanks in advance.

Hi Blackpearl users, I've recently started using the out-of-office feature provided by K2; I've read that it is used to "share" tasks with specific users but is it possible to redirect or at least delegate the task to the user set up in the out-of-office rules? The reason for my question is that we have a web app that kicks off instances off the workflows and the users approve and decline tasks from the web app.  If UserA chooses UserB as the person who will be actioning their tasks, UserB won't be doing so from within the workspace but rather from the web app.  This results in the error : "24411 K2:DOMAINUserB from ... is not allowed to open the worklist item with SN=78448_25".  is there a way arount this?  The only way I can think of is redirecting or delegating UserA's task to UserB but is it possible using the out-of-office feature? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!  Thanks in advance everyone. Shaun

Hi, I am using K2 for SharePoint.  I have a scenario like creating the custom list using saved list template.I couldn't able to find any options to select a saved list template in Create List Wizard.  Note: I'm using K2 for SharePoint and K2 workflow using the designer.  Thanks in advance.

I put a ViewFlow to show the Process Summary, but the users like to see 2 extra columns Risk Levels & Target Date. I wonder if there is a way to add those columns and/or have another search list with link to the existing Active Process and mimic the ViewFlow with the new extra columns.

Hi, Anyone able to help, spent ages on this with no joy. I've added an HTML table with two columns. If i add a simple thing like <td nowrap> or anything other than <td> by itself, the resulting email displays the below in the body of the text: <td< span=""> nowrap>  Why? I can't even change the width of my table, otherwise i get the same thing as above.... I tried adding width=100% to the Table tag, that results in the same "span message". Is the issue with K2 only having a limited HTML set? I need to keep the first column fixed width and have spacing of 1.5 between all rows, but no matter what i try, it doesn't work. Any ideas?  

Dear all, I am using API to call workflow in my asp.net  web page. I define SmartObjects and workflow only, without using SmartView and SmartForm. Now I have scenario as showed in the attached figure (K2 Example.png). One big manager (user A) create a form header (step1),  then he will assign his subordinate managers (user B) to create a detailed forms (step 2) separately. After each detailed form is created, another manager (User C) will approve it (step 3). After approval, a group of employees (User D) will be assigned to submit the forms (step 4). Each detailed form will have a list of  users, these users will submit their own detailed form independently. I created a workflow (attachment K2 Example Design.png), but I am not able to make all processes run in parallel. For example, the workitem assigned to user C1 shall go to next without affected by C2, C3, C4,  the workitem assigned to user D11 shall go to next without affected by D12, D1

Hi, I have a requirement where I need to download a file from sharepoint using a hyperlink and this hyperlink will be a in a smartform. This need to be performed in IE specifically. File will be a xlsx file. I transferred the url to the hyper link control and when I clicked the hyper link I get option only to Open and Cancel. If I get the document into a File Attachment control and click on it then I will get Open/Save/Cancel options but not for hyper link. Is there any way I can enable Save when I click hyperlink?  Regards,Madhu

Hello everyone, We checked the email box for our K2 workflow email account the other day and saw that there were 23 drafts that had never been sent by the service account email. They are all from a particular process, though most of the emails from that process are sent correctly every day. Has anyone ever seen anything like this? Any thoughts as to what might cause emails to be saved as drafts instead of being sent? Thank you,Taylor

Hi All, I would like to use the SQL Import/Export Wizard to import smartobject data by using the .NET Data Provider for K2 smartobjects.I installed K2 blackpearl Core on the SQL Server which made available the provider in the drop down for the Data Source.After this, I completed all the details relating to server name, port and selected smartobjects.I completed the wizard by selecting all the relevant source and destination info, but when I got to the summary screen it complained that there is no mapping file:[Source Information]Cannot locate the mapping file to map the provider types to SSIS types This then made the import fail when you continue and have it execute. I would like to know if anyone else could get this to work and if you did, how.If there is a mapping file I need to create, which current mapping file can I use as a base and what do I name it so that it is picked up by the Import/Export

we have a REST Service Not able to create a service instance (to create advance smartobjects) to receive objects any guidance..

Hi! I am new and I am trying to develope my first workflow. I have a workflow in which a request is made and it has to be assigned dynamically to multiple approvers. I have created a smartobject with a method that loads the approvers depending on some fields of the request, but when I try to load the approvers, it returns the error "SmartObject property IdCentro is a required property for selected method List. Value must be set.". Here are some images of the process. This are  the rules of the create button click:  but all the instances created have the Folio "Solicitud contratación" without the Tipo Text Box and Denomin values Any idea? Any help will be appreciated.
