Approval date in word footer

Hello!
I have a doc lib with approval and required check in. I have tryed severall things to get the value of the approval date in the page foot of the Word document.
If i use a workflow i run into the problem that i can´t make any changes unless the document is checked in and if i check it out a new version is created. I would also like to have the name of the approver in the document foot...
Anyone that has a great solution for this, i´m in a Little bit of a hurry so i have to find a way to solve tihis ASAP..

Lets start with the obvious question, is there anything that's saying having workflow created versioning is a bad thing? If you've got document checking and versioning turned on, you're clearly in an environment where auditing it needed.
SPD has steps for checking in and checking out.  If you use these, than you can also use the "log item to history" or something similar to log the history.
Other than that, try using calculated columns to look up both the Approver and the Approver Date.  Return these as single lines of text and they should work fine with Quick Parts.

  • Approval data of SC and PO in SRM 7.0

    Hi experts,
    we use SRM 7.0 with BRF workflow.  I need the approval data of SC and PO for such view in Mail:
    Approvingstep    Status       Approver        GID Approver
    purchaser          approved   John  Alex       z00000001
    approver           approved   Tom Morgan    z00000002
    etc.
    I attempted to use FM BBP_PDH_WFL_APPROVER_GET, but  it was futile.
    Can you please give me an advice for this?
    Regards,
    Evgeny.

  • How can I display the date a word document was last modified on my web page?

    I have lists of links to word documents on my web pages. I
    want to be able to show the date the word document was last
    modified next to each link. My pages are straight html.
    Thanks.

    >but I would have to go to each individual file (I have
    hundreds) and put this code on each link.
    No, you can use the FileSystemObject to get a list of the
    files in the directory. See if you can adapt this for your site:
    <link href="/CSS/dirlist.css" rel="stylesheet"
    type="text/css">
    <%
    Function FormatSize(SizeInBytes)
    if SizeInBytes > 1024^2 then
    FormatSize = formatnumber(SizeInBytes / 1024^2,2) & "
    MB"
    elseif SizeInBytes > 1024 then
    FormatSize = formatnumber(SizeInBytes / 1024,2) & " KB"
    else
    FormatSize = SizeInBytes & " Bytes"
    end if
    end function

    Hi,
    Revenue is a sample column. You can pull any measure column used in the report.
    And put this formula in a separate new column. And in the narrative view use this column number.For Ex- if the number of the column in the criteria is 15, then mention @15 in the narrative view.
    NOTE-Rows to display in narrative view should be set to 1.
    And in the formula-CEILING(CAST(COUNT("F1 Revenue"."1-01 Revenue (Sum All)") as DOUBLE)/ 25)
    25 refers to the number of row count to display. You can define the number according to your requirement.

  • How do I auto-update the date (in a footer)  in Pages 5.2.2 ?

    I have inserted the date into the footer of my document. I am running Pages 5.2.2 on Mavericks.
    I would like the date to auto-update to today's date.  I found a post from 2013 ( How to auto-update Time and Date?), but my version of pages doesn't work as described.  The only choice is update to today's date as a button I can manually click, but there doesn't seem to be an auto-update check box anymore.  Is there a new way to do it or has the feature been removed?

    Hi Cindy,
    Click once in the Footer.
    Menu > Insert > Date & Time.
    Double click to select the Date & Time in the Footer and choose a Date & Time format
    And there is also the Set to Today button.
    Waiting several minutes (just enough time for a cup of coffee) and then clicking the Set to Today button, the time changes from 9:53 pm to 9:59 pm.
    I can't wait until tomorrow to see if the date changes, but I think it will .
    Another way (clunky) is to insert a single-cell table somewhere in your document and type =now and format to your liking.
    As far as I know, Date & Time will update after you Save and then Open your document. Please call back after you test.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • HOW DO I ADD A DATE IN THE FOOTER?

    I can not find the INSERT DATE function to add a DATE to the footer of a NUMBER spreadsheet.  How do I do that? 

    Bob,
    Further to Jerry's pointer, see this thread for a description of how you can set up an 'insert date' pick in your menu.
    If you want (thanks to Badunit for showing that this was possible) instead of going through the steps described there you can just grab a copy of the service via this link (automatic download from Dropbox).  When you doubleclick it, you'll be asked if you want to install it. You may have to go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy to click 'open anyway' if you get a warning message.
    That's it. After it's installed it will be a menu pick similar to the screenshot above.
    If you want to rename it, then in Finder hold down the option key choose Go in the menu, navigate to Library > Services and rename it there as you would any other file.
    If you don't like going to the Services menu then assign a keyboard to it at System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts.

  • PO Approval date

    Hi Experts,
    I have an issue with PO Approval date, we have a release strategy in place for all PRs > 5000 k INR, we have developed a costomised report where in we need to have the approval date of the PO ie the PO release date, we tried to consider the PO workflow for approval date, but we have the versions also maintained for the PO, so we are unable to depend upon the workflow changes in the header changes. please advice if we can use anyother method to get the PO approval date.

    hi
    The Release dates of the PO are unfortunately not stored in SAP but as stated above you can check the change documents in the follwowing manner:
    Go to CDPOS table with Objectid = <PO Number> and OBJSCTCLASS = EINKBELEG and FNAME = FRGKE and NEW_VALUE = <Final release code> and get the CHANGENR from CDPOS. Then go CDHDR with the CHANGENR and get the update date..

    can any help me to sort out this pbm,i am new to IDM..
    Thanks in advance..

    Access policies get a static value.  You can't populate a field with an adapter.  If you must do this, leave the field blank, and put an adapter on the process form for your field that must be populated using code or logic.

  • How user data in word/exel file is going to to be stored in SharePoint content databse

    Where user data in word/exel file is going to to be stored in SharePoint farm. Kindly share MS KBs on this.

    Can you expand on what you want to know?
    'Documents' are uploaded into SharePoint where they are then sent to SQL where they are split into segments and are stored in a table, typically in the 'AllDocs' table (which you should not touch directly).

  • Disable automatic insertion of date in Word 2007

    Hi
    We use Office 2007 Danish and I need to find the setting that disables the automatic correction/insertion of dates in Word 2007. If I want to write
    24. february 2011 it automatically corrects it to 24. february 2011-03-17. I have looked everywhere, but can't find the setting that I have to disable?
    Can anyone help?
    /Lasse

    THIS WORKED !  Thanks Stefan.  Sadly I have no understanding of how and why it worked and I wish MS would make something like this much easier to turn on and, more importantly, turn it OFF.
    Thank you very much, I miss the old ? Help at the top of the toolbar.
    I'm glad you found my reply useful. :-)
    Note that newer versions of Word make it easier to turn off AutoComplete suggestions. In Word 2010 and 2013, you'll find the option at File tab | Options | Advanced.

  • Join issue - Requestor and Approval data

    Trying to show approval task information with requestor/customer information.
    We are unable to show approval task information and requestor information in the same result.  It appears that there is no join between requestor/customer and approval data.  Is there any way for us to create this join.

    Hi Dan,
    This should not be a problem with the Custom Reports Data Model. For instance, one could build a simple informational report displaying Requisition Number, Service Name, Customer Name, Approval Task Name and Approver Name as follows:
    ServiceRequestFact - RequisitionID (fact)
    Service - ServiceName (dimension)
    Customer - Customer Full Name (dimension)
    Authorization Tasks - Task Name (fact)
    Performer - Performer Full Name (dimension)
    As an FYI -- In the event that you do need to build a report containing data on 2 query subjects that do not have an explicit relationship (not the case here), you can do so by building a Master Detail Report in Report Designer.
