Hi, The business need is that the Supervisor wants a button to approve al Tasks assigned to him/her for a specific workflow type. Is there a way to do this?I was thinking there might be a Smart Object or Service instance that is able to take the workflow instance Id and action it? Please help out with the best and possible way to do this
Hi K2 Community,I'm trying out the DMZ deployment topology described at Separate IIS Server for DMZ-style External Access, however, the documentation is not clear to me. In my environment, the internal domain does not trust the DMZ domain, while the DMZ domain does trust the internal domain. I can sign into DMZ servers with internal domain accounts, we have other apps in the DMZ where we can use our internal AD accounts to sign into them. There's a firewall between the DMZ network and the internal network that blocks all traffic between them, we configure firewall policies in case-by-case to allow traffic on specific ports. The edge firewall is mostly limited to port 443, again this is on a case-by-case basis. So far this a common DMZ environment. I'm installing K2 Smartform runtime and web services on the DMZ --IIS app pool will run with an internal domain account, as recommended by the documentation--. The account I'm using to install it is from the DMZ domain because the DMZ is join
Hi K2 Community,I have been testing different K2 Five installations scenarios with a PROD license and in both instances a stand-alone or farm configuration, K2 Host Server process will not start --this is a new installation, not an upgrade--.

Hi, I want to retrieve the list of active tasks of a workflow from K2 Worklist "Task List". From the Task List, I want to obtain the list of destination users from K2 so that I can create a report of the active tasks pending action from the destination users. Is there any way I can obtain this information, from K2 database? Thanks.
Hello all,My admins tell me that end users aren't setting up their Out of Office delegation, and they would like a big button on the home page of their K2 app (in SharePoint) that offers the option to do that. Users aren't finding the existing button on their worklist, maybe because it's small and unlabeled so they don't know what it is. Anyway, is there a URL or some other way to pop up the "Configure Out of Office" dialog window that I can be launched from a big button on the SharePoint/K2 app home page?

Anyone else seen this issue? We have a workflow that's been around for about six months. It was created by User A. When I visit that workflow and look at its Last Modified Date and Last Modified By, it shows a date in the past, and User B--who was not even hired onto our team on the date K2 says the workflow was last modified. We do have a few workflows that need to be changed at the database level to switch their checkouts or locked-bys to different users, but we checked and this was not one of them. Any ideas why this is occurring?
We just upgraded our K2 environment from 4.6.11 to 4.7 to 5.2 with latest Fix Pack. We have a legacy workflow which was built in Visual Studio Pro 2013. After the upgrade to K2 Five 5.2, we tried to package and deploy this legacy workflow using K2 Studio and it throws following exception:Â Attached is the full text of this error.Â
Hello,I am trying to generate notifications from a workflow dynamically. I can easily generate a message from SQL Procedure based on parameters. But where I am having issues is including Workflow variables in these messages. Is there a way to do this ? Is there a text representation of a variable? What I want to do is to write something along the lines of {Workflow.RequestID} and have it be replaced by the RequestID variable. Is this possible in K2 Five?  Thank you TomÂ
Hi, I didn't find any topics on this, which surprised me as I can't imagine that I am the only person here with this issue.I have a listview with in it a column with numeric data. I want to sort this data on this column, where I would find an order of 1,2,3,...9, 10, 11 a logic one. But the result of the List view sort is an order of 1,10, 11, 2,3,4,... Does anyone know how to fix this? Â
Hi AllCan i have some question regarding K2 Smartform.As a new developer i already make a literal button that can print smartform without the button showing.   I attach Test.xps that are the output of the print function  But did anyone of you have tried to download to a smartform to a file.

Hi All I thought this was possible but for some reason it doesnt work for me.I want to add some simple HTML formatting to the task reminder email which I'm generatingFor example <b>this text should be in BOLD<b> When I get the email the HTML is ignored and is just displayed as normal text with the tags I'm positive I've been able to do this before? Â
I'm new to K2 5 so excuse my ignorance if this is a simple problem that has been solved before.I have 2 unbound rules on the form that are called from 2 more general "Save" and "Load" unbound rules that are called during form initialize depending on whether the FormID paramater is specified or not. Below the first two highlighted rules are the general Save and LOad rules. The bottown two rules are the attachment list save and get list rules. According to the Management Console the Save is apparently working. The underlying smart ofject is populated. The Get List load rule is not pulling in the list of attachments. The details of the 2 rules are shown below. What am I doing wrong?  Â
I have a workflow that requires me to have one of the task to be assigned to a Group. We need this to be only one task that all members can open and if someone has it open, they want to still see it on the task list. I have this setup within the Task and I have the checkbox for "Resolve groups to individuals" unchecked. For the most part, this is working. I had built it into the workflow to have a "close" option that actually loops back to the task so that if they don't actually finish the task, it can then be picked up by another member of the group to complete - this avoids the one single task becoming stuck with the person who opened it (so if they take a half day out of the office, someone else can complete the task). This also works pretty darn well. In this particular workflow, this task can be assigned out to one of 8 groups. The issue is that the one group has a much larger count of members and members tend to open a task and just leave it open in a tab and don't get back to i
Hello,What is the best way to insert multiple records into a workflow email using a single smart object? I have a table that holds records for multiple transactions based on a single main transaction. When I insert the smartobject reference into the email it just inserts the records for each entry together e.g. TransactionNameVariable appears as 'Test1Test2Test3' in the email (3 records found for the main transaction) Any suggestions on a method to use to display them separately? ThankyouÂ
Hi All, I have a requirement where user would like to action a workitem through a hyperlink in their task email. For example, the email will have two hyperlink's Approve and Reject. On clicking Approve, user expects the task to be approved and on clicking Reject, the workitem should get rejected. Is it possible to implement this?  Regards,Madhu
Hi, We have a requirement to render the UI components, text box, labels, etc, based on an XML/JSON that a web service provides. Is there any way to use K2 Views to do this runtime loading? The view will not have any idea of the elementss present in the xml except the parent node. This is quite important for us as we are trying to create a dynamic workflow solution for our business and the content types used will need to be configurable. Regards,Deb
Hi,Anyone have idea to load K2 5 kprx into PersistableObject? I have try to get a PersistableOject using "Load" method of SourceCode.Framework.SerializationInfoProvider with memory Stream of K2 Five kprx. see below source code.static void Main(string[] args){ byte[] x = GetProcessSource(@"C:Usersk2adminDocumentsK2 5 kprxKprxUpdateSubSiteByGetRefProcess_K2Five.kprx");using (var serializer = new SerializationInfoProvider()) using (var stream = new MemoryStream(x)) { if (stream != null) { PersistableObject pot =(PersistableObject)serializer.Load(stream); } }} public static byte[] GetProcessSource(string fileName) { try { // Read the file as byte byte[] kprxBytes = File.ReadAllBytes(fileName); // Return the KPRX bytes return kprxBytes; } c
I have 2 different smartobjects which I would like to use for emailing purposes. One for customer, and one for recipients, where the recipients smartobject has: RecipientID, RecipientName, EmailAddress and CustomerID (Foreign Key). Customer is CustomerID, CustomerName.In my smartform I'm using a multiselect on the Customer SmartObject which looks at the CustomerName and returns the CustomerID.I want this to then populate another multiselect to return all Recipients that are associated to the CustomerID's returned in the first multiselect.However, when doing this with more than one customer, I'm unable to populate the Recipient List as I get an error because of the ; delimited list selected in the first part is seen as an nvarchar and not an int. I'm currently using a work around which isn't best practice with relational databases, I'm using one large smartobject consisting of the CustomerID, CustomerName, Email Addresses. The email addresses field consists of a large list of all the re
