Hoping someone can help me or at least point me to something online or on YouTube that can help me with a rush issue. I’m taking over some duties and needed to build a workflow that does the following:
- Checks a calendar for a recurring weekly meeting
- Based on the recurring meeting name (Title?) sends out a notice 4 days before the next recurring meeting to an attendee reminding them it’s their turn to take notes at the upcoming meeting
- Sends that same attendee a notice the day after the meeting reminding them to submit their notes
- Progresses to the next attendee in a list (6 members) and repeats the reminder cycle in #2 for the next meeting
- After it goes through the list of attendees it starts again at the first person in the list
My experience in SharePoint 2010/2013 has been predominately BA for departments to determine their needs in SharePoint and helping them design their pages, branding, calendars, etc. I’m pretty new to the whole workflow tool and could really use some help. Thank you so much!
So, recurring meetings don’t show up in the data as multiple events. It is one event with a Recurrence column that describes how often it repeats. Your workflow would need to construct the proper dates and filter down to the one in question. That’s a pretty complex task to perform in workflow.
