I looked up this topic and found the items outlined below on how to time/date stamp comments and then have them move above the comments section after each entry.
I have created an "Add Comment" workflow on the list which is set to start manually and appears on the item context menu.
It has one variable which is shown on the start page of the workflow and is required.
The workflow does this:
- Build String = Current date and time, new line, initiator display name, new line, comments added on start form, new line, item property comments (so new comments are timestamped and added above previous comments). Stored into variable called vMTextComments
- Update Item = set comments field on current item = vMTextComments
this will be possible to do in the form also if you wanted it to be done in there.
However, I can not it to work. Would anyone be willing to send my screenshots of the step by step process to make this work?
