We are using SAP SSO and have created K2 Connect SO's and SmartObjects. I have one smartobject that takes a SAP userid and returns their AD Name. With our K2 Connect configured to use SAP SSO I somehow (in C#) need to get the string value of the users SAP Login Ticket so that I can pass that value into the SmartObject method argument. Can anyone please explain to me how to do this in .NET (C#). Â
Hello, I have an entry form that has a workflow. This worlfow guides the process from beginning to end. I have another form and this form has a list view with some item views below this. I would like to "On Click" open an item in its current workflow state so that it may be actioned from the list view. Does anyone have any ideas on how this might be possible? The form with the list view does not have a workflow associated with it. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks,Bryan Peters
Hello!I have, in a form, three choice controls. The values of the second choice depends on the first one and the values of the third choice depends on the second one. Thanks! Â
Whenever I try to design a new view or open anything on designer, the site will go to that page but a "loading logo" will overtake the page and not go away not allowing me to click anythingn the page. The logo itself is frozen as well just showing: The memory of the remote desktop I am accessing this on is only 49% used. Please help!!  Â
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. There is no versioning for Smartforms; Workflow Admins must export and save "somewhere"/export K2 package in case there is a need to roll back to a previous version. 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
Now they are redirecting you to a nice page to submit your ideas and let the community vote on those.https://ideas.k2.com/?sort=popular  After posting about dozen ideas, look into the Email... and looks like K2 is using another third party tool https://support.aha.io/hc/en-us To post the ideas and have it vote.... I wonder why if K2 could have the capability of do what AHA does, not using AppIt instead of Aha. Is this perhaps the cloud/tenant version of BlackPearl ??? This is exactly one of the sites I like tobuild with Blackpearl, but need to be able to edit the list view or to use an Item view as template to iterate in teh list view =)   Â
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. Who should be responsible for drilling into workflow errors? Is it the Workflow Admin? Do they have the access that they need? What the best practices that could be taught to Citizen Developers? What are your thoughts? How would you define these? Thank you in advance for your time. Brian
Hi, Is it possible to have a People Picker tool in K2 Smartforms, but limit the selection to one AD Group? I want to allow a user to click on a Drop Down List Control and display all the members of an AD Group, but then allow them to pick one or more users by dragging them into a text box and then email the chosen people. Is this possible? Thanks as always
I'm looking to add three drop down list controls to my smartform that are dependent on each other, that the user can select multiple options from and all selections would then be saved.An example would be a sales order where you can choose colour, size and amount and add to your cart and then choose the same item in a different colour, size and amount.It seems like it should be simple enough but I can't get them to link back to my original smartobject.I've created the composite smartobjects and have got the three levels saving into a smartobject table, but I don't know how to transfer them back to my original smartobject - e.g. it will save blue, size 10 x4 as one entry, and pink, size 10 x3 as another entry in the composite smartobject, but i can't figure out how to link that back to the order.
We have few templates which are need to be distributed to more than 500 users. So we need that distribution should take minimum time possible. How to increase the performance distribution.
Is there a way to view / edit smartstarter workflows?
I would kindly ask if somebody could help me with preparing expression for formating value stored in TextBox to currency format. Example:Sored value in TextBox is 1000.1 (it's styled and is shown as 1000,00 EUR). I need to format this value for sending it to Windows servis in format 1.000,10Â
I'm not sure if I'm doing this right. I'm allowing the user to edit an existing records. I want to show the existing field's value in an autocomplete control. I connect the smart object to the control. I set the method of the smart object and the value (integer) and the text field in the display. When the control loads, the autocomplete field shows the integer value??? What should I do here/

In reference to the timer control in this article: https://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2appit/userguide/current/default.htm#timer_control.htm it states that "The Timer control can be used for example to keep track of the time spent on a specific Form, i.e. counting the seconds lapsed once the Form is run." It then goes on to provide little to no help on exactly how to do this. What I'd like to do is have the timer control start when a subform initializes and then stop when the subform closes and store the number of "ticks" (even better, the number of seconds" in a parameter or datafield that I can then write back to the database with the amount of seconds the form was open total.   So, I'm thinking you'd have a rule to execute the timer's start method when the form initializes...and run the timer's stop method when the subform closes...but does anyone have any idea how you could have the number of ticks (or preferable seconds) record somewhere that can be written back also at the time the
So, I have a Oracle database and I have tables with lot of records (1000, 5000 or 10000). I created SmartObjects with Service Tester tool and I am trying to use these SOs on Smartforms (K2 Designer). I can make a view based on this SO with no problems. But, when I try to edit this view (item view or list view - it doesn't matter), it keeps loading forever. It takes a lot time to initialize this view.  I tried to find a workaround, but I was unable to find a solution, altough I believe that there is a way to make life easier in Smartforms using Smartobjects based on tables with lot of records. I would appreciate any help.
I'm not familiar with K2 exception rules configuration and K2 exception handling, I just need to know is there any way to suppress/bypass specific exceptions preventing running process instance from falling into error state and continue normally with the next event. an example scenario:I have some escalation rules sending a notification email for destination user in a client event for some reason this user does not have an email address assigned to his active directory account, in such case upon executing that escalation rule it fails to send the notification bringing down the entire process instance to error state.I was thinking for a way to ignore/bypass this notification which is not that urgent from business perspective and continuing the running process normally. any clues will be much appreciated

 We have done a migration of the Production environment down to the dev environment.  I am trying to redeploy the workflow to discover and straighten out any errors. When I try this workflow I get this message.  (Job Matrix) The SmartObject method '' in SmartObject 'intranet__sites___swat_WorkingDocuments' used in '' could not be found.I can see that the smart object has lost its relationship with the smart object method but I am trying to find out which one. The error message is not telling me which one, only blank "  Does anyone know how I can troubleshoot this.Â
Hello everybody, I would like to know, how to display the message set in "Message" (under validation section).  I put a "If the form passes validation" condition but i'm enable to display my message. So far, I've juste a custom message if the formulaire doesn't pass validation but i'm not able to point out wich control is not correctly set.Instead, I set a "custom generic" message to explain what is required and why. Thx for sharing,T.

Hi everyone, My organization is looking to have the K2 Admin be able to access all workflows that are currently running and closed for troubleshooting and other issues. They want them to be able to have a large list and then be able to click on a specific one and be able to open it up. Is there anyway this is possible? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,Pob
Hello guys! I was wondering if you could help me... Do you know if K2 has a dashboard or something to view the tasks that each user has? The situation here is that a manager needs to see how many and which tasks are assigned to an especific or several users and if able, to see the progress of the workflow. Something like this:   I know that K2 has the Activity Instances Grid. That's exactly what I need, the only problem is that it doesn't show the users involve in the task or the progress of the workflow. Do you know how can I do this?Thanks in advance.
