I have a workflow approval process..  When I attempt to open the approval form, I get the error message "the following fields are required: ID".  The item I am attempting to view HAS an ID number,, verified by looking at the item data in the Management workspace, and there is a field for ID on the approval, to be populated by the Load method.  So it seems there IS an ID field, so what is it talking about?  Thanks!

What 'Form Type' are you using for your task form? Is it a 'Basic Task Form', a 'SmartForm' or a 'Custom Form'?

Basically, what I think is happening, is that you have a rule on your form which is trying to execute the 'Load' method of your smartobject. This requires the 'ID' value of the smartobject to load the correct record. Typically this value would be passed as a query string parameter in the task form URL and then used to load the data into the form.
