We are trying to automate the approval process for course registrations on our SharePoint. Several lists are created throughout the year where people can sign up to a specific course and we have setup a re-usable workflow, tied to the content type, that emails that person’s manager for approval. This has been done. However, we wanted to include the course details in the email to the manager but with the goal of fully automating the process (avoid having to edit the 30+ lists with course information) by creating a separate list (Course Schedule) that lists all the courses that can be referenced by the workflow, but have no field to link them in from the course list
Due to organizational barriers, I’m unable to modify the list with visual studio. One alternative that seemed promising was to create the course in the “Course Schedule” list with a field for the name of the list, then, on the course registration form, add a webpart that uses Javascript to strip the name of the list from the url then pass that value to the form. However, I’m unable to replicate the SFSubmit function that would normally get called when pressing the button on the HTML form web part. (54csN.png)
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciatedÂ
