Hi,
I’m new on Sharepoint development, I need help to implement this customer requests.
I need to create a workflow that create a sequence of tasks when a document are uploaded in a document library.
The business process is quite complex and these tasks have to be assigned to different groups with different cut-offs.
I thought to use the SP designer 2010 to create the workflow or the workflows and a custom activity.
This custom activity will have a parameter with an activity code and should create a task based on data from a specific SPList that contains title, group and cutoff.
After the task creation wait for status changed to complete.
The user can take in charge the task (set a property) and set the status to completed.
Is it possibile?
Do you have suggestions, tutorials or code samples?
Thanks a lot for you help
Well.. When you would set up the workflow on a library, a task would be generated on each upload of a document to that library.
When I mean “set up” – I mean add a workflow to the library (using workflow settings -> add a workflow). This enables creation of tasks on each upload.
As in case of your example: When you would upload doc A, a corresponding task 1 is created in the task list, provided you have added your workflow to the (doc) library. This task 1 could pick data from any SPList and update the same or a different SPList using eventreceivers.
Is that something you were looking for? 🙂
