Bold column list headings for Cloud version of SharePoint 2013

$
0
0

Hello,

I have scoured through most SP forms in an attempt to find a good resolution for my issue. I have recently created a few Lists for my organization, and I've been trying to figure out a way to Bold/Highlight the headings in my lists, without the use of JQuery, or inserting any additional web parts.

Can this be done without JQuery, or some other overly complicated script?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Dave.-

How to deploy SharePoint 2013 workflow created on SP Online to On Premise

$
0
0

Hi there

I wondering if anyone can help with this.

I have created a whole lot of 2013 Workflows in SharePoint designer (developed on SharePoint Online/O365). I exported them as WSPs to deploy as Solutions. They work fine deploying to other SP Online environment - but, deploying to an On Premise environment it does not like.

What i did - From Site Settings > Solutions > Upload Solution, I choose the WSP (2013 workflow) and upload. All is okay until I activate the solution. The error I get:

Unable to load assembly group. The user assembly group provider was unable to provide any user assemblies for the specified assembly group.

This error message I have encountered before and is generally when the Sandbox Code service account does not have permissions to the Web Application. So permissions are fine - that does not seem to be the issue.

My thought is that it is to do with the SharePoint versioning - Online (16) and On Premise (15) - so they have references to different assemblies. Could this be the case?

So my question is what is anyone's experiences with this - and what is the best approach to developing workflows online and deploying them to an On Premise environment.

regards

Shaun

Hi there, I have a workflow that I would like to create in SharePoint 2013 online (office365) my requirements as follows:

I have two lists, 1 contains a list of technician names, the other is  a list where the technicians fill out a form daily (created in InfoPath), which is submitted.

Basically what I would like to do is when the technicians submit their form to the second list, a workflow would runbut at the end of the day to compare WHO has submitted and who has not. Then an Email would be sent to the manager to notify with a list of technicians that DIDNT submit..

Now I have setup the lists and filled out with all the techs names,  with the respective column names. "Technician Name" for both lists. I  just cant get the logic right???????

any help would be great

Environment: SharePoint 2013 (online) Office365.

Cheers

Error enabling InfoPath form template via Powershell

$

I have an administrator-approved InfoPath form template with C# code behind that I'm trying to deploy via PowerShell. I use the Install-SPInfoPathFormTemplate command to install the form -- that part works, and I can see the form listed in the Manage Form Templates page in Central Admin.

However, when I try to enable the form using the Enable-SPInfoPathFormTemplate command, I get the error below:

Enable-SPInfoPathFormTemplate :
At C:\Temp\InfoPath\enable.ps1:5 char:1+ Enable-SPInfoPathFormTemplate -Identity $form -Site $site+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~+ CategoryInfo     : InvalidData (Microsoft.Offic...mTemplateCmdlet:EnableFormTemplateCmdlet) [Enable-SPInfoPathFormTemplate], SPException+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.Office.InfoPath.Server.Cmdlet.EnableFormTemplateCmdlet

There isn't enough detail for me to follow it up in any way - no correlation ID that I can look up in the logs or nothing related in the Event Viewer, as far as I can see.

I also tried to deploy the form via the Manage Form Templates page in Central Admin (i.e. click the Activate to a Site Collection dropdown). That produced the enlightening error message

Sorry, something went wrong

The local device name is already in use. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070055)

Technical Details

Troubleshoot issues with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation.

Correlation ID: 9cb02e9d-20d4-e01a-4752-bac166fec88c

I looked up this correlation ID in the log viewer but there is nothing that seems to be related to deploying an InfoPath form. I am pretty certain there is nothing wrong with the form itself or the code behind because it has been deployed successfully on another server. There are no immediately obvious differences between form libraries/content types on the server where it works and the server where it doesn't. Separately, I am looking for the needle in that even bigger haystack too, but for now I am hoping someone will be able to shed some light on the situation described here, because in the absence of any kind of meaningful error message I am completely stumped.

SharePoint 2013 & Caml & Membership

Can you use the membership element as part of a caml query for a view in a document library? I have a document library with documents and I have a site column called 'Department' that contains one or more SharePoint site groups. I would like to show documents based on the current user's site group memberships. I don't have enough time to develop and test item level security, so this is my option around it. Can I use the Membership element on a document library in SharePoint.??? Please help. 

Thank you in advance.

SharePoint is auto deleting my VERY complex workflows made in SPD 2013 - days and days of work now lost - wtf Microsoft...

$

Hi,

I have made some very complex SPD 2013 workflows that have been saved and published to SharePoint online - however some time later - at least a week - I come back to do other work and notice my workflows are empty - the name of the workflow appears but if i open it there is nothing there - this is insane.

I have days and days of work here - I am not new to SharePoint or workflows so you don't need to ask me if I am sure they were saved and published - yes they were and tested many many many times....

When I closed SPD they were perfectly fine and now totally gone - what the hell?

Does anyone know why or how to get them back?

Uploading a document to a document library with a SPD workflow on it raises a "file has been modified by" error

Hi,

Thanks for reading. 

I am using SharePoint 2013 online and I am uploading a document to a document library that has a SPD created workflow on it. (which i made)

When I upload the doc I get an error that says in red text: the file: "whateverfile" has been modified by: "me"

The document library has metadata fields needed by the workflow but due to this error I dont get a chance to enter the data needed by the metadata fields and so the workflow does not run....!

I have tried adding a SPD pause action to the workflow but I still get the error.

The workflow is configured to run for new item, item changed and manually.

Any help much appreciated - if you have any questions please let me know.

I have a virtual machine (with VirtualBox) that runs on and on W2012 I installed SharePoint Server 2013. When I prepare for my host system (W8) to create a new page with SharePointDesigner, introduce the IP of the virtual machine (http : //192.168.56.1/) and the message to me: "This site must be created on a server running Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Choose another location.". What I can be doing wrong? Does anyone has thought of something similar? Thank you.

I am trying to make the field description of a specific element on editform.aspx both red and italic. Using Designer, I wrote this in editform.aspx:

<td width="400px" valign="top" class="ms-formbody" style="color:red!important;font-style:italic;">
       <SharePoint:FormField runat="server" id="ff34{$Pos}" ControlMode="Edit" FieldName="Bill_x0020_Analysis_x0020_Comple" __designer:bind="{ddwrt:DataBind('u',concat('ff34',$Pos),'Value','ValueChanged','ID',ddwrt:EscapeDelims(string(@ID)),'@Bill_x0020_Analysis_x0020_Comple')}"/>
       <SharePoint:FieldDescription runat="server" id="ff34description{$Pos}" FieldName="Bill_x0020_Analysis_x0020_Comple" ControlMode="Edit" />
      </td>

The italic took effect, but I can't get the red to.  Can anyone tell me why?


There are no mistakes; every result tells you something of value about what you are trying to accomplish.

Large list - Unable to use workflow interop

Hi,

I have an issue during migrating/restructuring a 2010 library to a 2013 library. At a certain point I'm no longer able to call a support 2010 workflow from my main 2013 SPD workflow.

Some context, I have some 2000 document sets, and already moved some 2000 files. All together 4020 items, so not even the 5000 limit ;-)

I have a 2013 workflow that runs on update, it enriches the document item with metadata from another list. After enriching, the document is moved to the right document set based on the name of the file.

A dummy 2013 workflow that calls a 2010 workflow which writes "Hello world" to the log, does not work either anymore. I only have this behavior in ONE document library.

Previously I already did some testing with something like 100 document sets with each 100 documents in there. Everything keeps working.

I have the following error:

Retrying last request. Next attempt scheduled in less than one minute. Details of last request: HTTP BadRequest to http://sharepoint2013.test.com/qshe/_vti_bin/client.svc/SP.WorkflowServices.InteropService.Current/EnableEvents(listId='6178f9d7-71ea-4cfe-a86f-18c427c39b31',itemGuid='48df8858-4bb7-4c40-8bd3-d96a7d03b9aa') Correlation Id: e1138de7-7d76-518a-89be-1fd319cb300c Instance Id: 2e91e524-e92f-41f0-af47-4516a9060305

After something like one minute, I have the following error and my workflow goes to the suspended state:

RequestorId: e1138de7-7d76-518a-0000-000000000000. Details: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the workflow instance. Exception details: System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: Input at Microsoft.Activities.Hosting.Runtime.Subroutine.SubroutineChild.Execute(CodeActivityContext context) at System.Activities.CodeActivity.InternalExecute(ActivityInstance instance, ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager) at System.Activities.Runtime.ActivityExecutor.ExecuteActivityWorkItem.ExecuteBody(ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager, Location resultLocation)

Any ideas how to solve it, or how to get more infomation about it ? The 4020 looks like an odd number to me ;-)

Best regards,

Marc Nemegeer

we can't do that for you because the file is no longer checked out or has been deleted (sharepoint 2013 designer)

Method to migrate submitted InfoPath forms from O365 into on-premise SP2013 library?

$
0
0

I have a web-based InfoPath form published to a SharePoint form library on Office 365 for external users to fill out and submit. After submitting the form to O365, I need a workflow to automatically move\copy each submitted form into an internal on-premise SharePoint 2013 form library, and then delete the form from the O365 library once it migrates.

Is there a method to migrate InfoPath forms automatically from O365 into on-premise SP2013?
