Considerations
This issue occurred due to changes made previously to improve the accuracy of the Activity Instance Destination SmartObject. After installing the Fix Pack, you now have the option to use the old behavior.
Follow these steps to make use of the old behavior:
- Stop the K2 Host Server.
- Execute the following query on the K2 database:
DECLARE @XML NVARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @GUID NVARCHAR(MAX)
SELECT @GUID = [Guid] FROM [K2].[SmartBroker].[ServiceInstance] WHERE [name] = 'WorkflowReportingService'
SET @XML = <service><key name="Behavior">pre-aidid</key> </service>'
UPDATE [K2].[SmartBroker].[ServiceObject] SET [ServiceKeysXML] = @XML WHERE [ServiceInstanceGuid] = @GUID AND [Name] = 'ActivityInstanceDestination'
- Start the K2 Host Server.
- If you used the Activity Instance Destination SmartObject in a workflow, change the filter to use the Activity Display name instead of the Activity name and ensure the activities are executing as the K2 Service account.
