Sharepoint 2010 workflow gets access denied.

$

Scenario is : We have a sharepoint onprem environment ABC.com which has SP2013. Recently we have migrated abc.com users to xyz.com.

xyz.com is hybrid(o365) environment. 

So now, when xyz.com users goes to approve workflow from abc.com they get get access denied. 

User is being domain joined machine on xyz.com. Apart from incognito mode is there any other workaround that you may suggest at this time. Over 200 users are affected. 

can we change the workflow initiator on SP2013 server?

can guest user approves the workflow? Is this even supporting scenario. i have been reading about stsadm/move-spuser but nout sure if these cmdlts will be applicable in our scenario. Please any feedback will be appreciated.

connecting Repeating Table nested in Repeating section (sharepoint secondary data sources)

$

Hello,

I have 2 secondary  data sources that are sharepoint lists.

The first list is included as a repeating section.

The second list is included as a repeating section nested inside the repeating section.

Basically, I would like that a field in the first list be used as a filter for the repeating table in the second list.

In the repeating table, I included the following formatting rule that hides the control with the following rule:

xdXDocument:GetDOM("Projects")/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/d:SharePointListItem_RW/d:Initiative != d:Initiative

The Initiative is the field in common in both lists. I would like that the table only shows the elements that have a matchingInitiative coming from the parent section. However, I am unable to find any filter combination or use ofcurrent() functions to determine inside the nested table what is the current value of the parent section.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Graphic with hyperlinks

We have SharePoint 2007 and I'd like to know if it's possible to have a graphic with multiple hyperlinks or several graphics each with their own hyperlink, and have it be on the main page as a menu like item. The project manager would like to have a graphical image with buttons for hyperlinks to use as the menu (versus just having the tabs at the top.........don't ask....).

Thanks,

Unable to migrate SharePoint 2013 document set to Modern sites

Hi All,

I am trying to migrate a document library having document sets to modern sites in SharePoint Online. The structure and content of the site got migrated using ShareGate tool but there are few issues.

1. Unable to migrate the workflows. I feel it can be fixed using PowerAutomate.

2. Unable to migrate the custom forms. It could be fixed using PowerApps but every item I select the document set and click 'Edit Properties', it throws an error. Please see below.

Is there any way to replace this form without SharePoint designer 2013? FYI, SharePoint 2013 Designer doesn't work on modern sites. Please suggest.

Thanks,

E-mail not received by approvers in SharePoint native Approval Workflows

$

Hi,
We have a blog site in SharePoint 2007 on which the Posts List has an automated SharePoint Approval Workflow (native SharePoint Approval Workflow) configured to send an e-mail to a specific user to approve the posts whenever a new item (post) is created. Workflow related Timer Jobs are working fine (all up and running). When workflow starts, it sends an e-mail to the post creator but fails to send the e-mail to the user that approves the post (or at least e-mail is not received). We tried to change approvers but the result is the same: the email is not received.

Our analysis so far

    Emails are not sent to the Junk Email
    Looked for the SMTP configurations and they are all correct;
    We have set a SharePoint alert configured to the same user and it works: the email is successfully received by the user that approves the post (e-mail is sent and received);
    Created a new approval workflow in the same library with the same settngs as the original workflow (e-mail not received);
    Created a similar approval workflow to send an e-mail to a different user (e-mail not received);
    Created a similar approval workflow but without the “Automatically start when a new item is created" option) (e-mail not received);
    Looked for workflow related errors in SharePoint ULS Log files and found this error that is generated every time a new post is created and the workflow set to start automatically when a new item is created fires (manually started workflow do not generate errors in Log file but the emails are not received anyway);

    Error in log:

User Fillable Form and Calculating tool

$

Hello All, 

I have built an internal tool for my company in excel. It consists of 10 questions, each with 2 dropdown options. A user responds to each of the question by selecting a dropdown option for each of the 10 questions. The dropdown option for each question is different.

For eg,

Question 1  -  "Region" has options: 1. USA and 2. Canada

Question 2  -  "Home Type" has options: 1. Apartment and 2. House

so on and so forth.

Choosing option 1 vs option 2 for each question has a value assigned to it. 

Once all options are selected, the sum total of all values are displayed as a total score. 

Task: 

I am trying to create this form on sharepoint. Such that users will be able to fill the form (answer the 10 questions by selecting dropdowns) and see the sum total displayed below. 

I tried fiddling with Sharepoint Lists / Custom lists / Survey, but didnt help. Any suggestions ?

Any other solution (MS forms, flow or anything else within office 365 will also help). 

Thanks in advance

How do I customize Sharepoint alerts (selection of fields and order in which fields are displayed)

$
0
0

We're trying to set up alerts to notify users when new items are posted, and the setting up of the alerts is easy enough. I've also been able to use the fabulous guide to customizing alerts (found here --> http://blogs.msdn.com/sharepointdeveloperdocs/archive/2007/12/07/customizing-alert-notifications-and-alert-templates-in-windows-sharepoint-services-3-0.aspx) to get the alert template customized with fewer fields and a nice custom footer.

However, I'm still having a problem with one pesky field that shouldn't be there and with the order of the fields.

The field that shouldn't be displayed is named State/Province and I have represented it in the <ImmediateNotificationExcludedFields> and <DigestNotificationExcludedFields> tags asState_x002f_Province (which should be the right way to do it). However, every time, I still get this field appearing in the e-mails. Odder still, I can't find any leading or trailing spaces that might be bollixing the works. Is there some other hex code that I should be using instead of what I have above?

The other issue is with the display of fields - I'd like to know if there's an easy way to set the order myself (or even understand HOW it's ordering items). I thought at first that it was displaying them alphabetically, or perhaps in order by where they appear on the form, but neither is true.

So, those are my two questions:

1. How do I get this one field to stop displaying? (all of my other attempts to hide fields have worked)

2. Is it possible to identify or even change how Sharepoint is ordering the fields for display in the alert message?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions, ideas, etc.!

SharePoint 2013 Designer Workflow - Unable to create new document in Document Library using Create item action.

$

Hi Everyone,

As Microsoft has declared that SharePoint 2010 Workflow will be decommissioned from SharePoint Online, I am converting workflow from 2010 to 2013. There is one place where it is required to create new document in the document library. There is an action Create item in <<Document Library>>. When we use this action, the document which is created in library is corrupted. But if we create the document using same action in 2010 workflow, then it is working fine.

Scenario:

Developed workflow in SharePoint 2010 designer mode. Create item in <<Document library>> working fine.

New workflow in SharePoint 2013 designer mode. Create item in <<Document library>> corrupting document.


Can anyone please suggest me solution for this?

I am using Sharepoint 2010 and the workflow is a Reusable workflow on a Content Type.

Please let me know how I can update that one field.

$SPList = $SPWeb.Lists[""]
$userName = "";
$user = Get-SPUser -web $SPWeb -Identity $userName;

$ListItem.UpdateOverwriteVersion()
}

The script runs successfully but when viewing the metadata from the browser I noticed the values don't get updated

Lookup Created By -

Hi everyone,

I am quite new with SP and read somewhere that SP Designer can do some sort of VLOOKUP.

In my company, our email address is based on employee ID, meaning I am 123@xxxx.com however whenever I submit into SP, my display name will be shown instead which is Fierul F@xxxx.com.

How to convert it back to employee ID? I tried with SP Designer but I cannot locate Created By as a list. Is this something I can do with SP Designer + workflow or there's other method to do it?

Thanks!
