Create new content type...

Greetings all,
I am trying to include the Word, PowerPoint and Excel content types in my document libraries so that when a user clicks the "New" drop down they can select which document they want to create.  However I seem to be running into some problems
getting this done.  I have created the Site Content Type and have also uploaded a template to be used for the document.  I have also gone into the library settings and have added the content types to the document library and set it to open the documents
in the browser rather than in the client application.  Using Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox when creating the new document I am prompted if I want to open the corresponding application, it does not open the new document in the browser.
 Using Google Chrome I am prompted for a name for the new file and when I click OK I receive this error message:
"Invalid template URLhttp://sharepoint-dev/Documents/Forms/New Word Document/WDTMPL.DOTXThe template must exist in the Forms directory of this document library. Create the
template in the Forms directory, and then re-type the Web address. Note that you cannot move or copy a template into the Forms directory."
Any thoughts or ideas?
Thanks
Ryan 

Here is what shows up in the log when trying to create a new Word document (hopefully it makes sense):

  • Workflow Status column for new content type

    Hi,
    Initially I had a document library and several workflows associated with it. After that I created a new content type inheriting Folder content type. My existing workflows could be started and work fine with any item of this new content type except anything
    related to the workflow status column, such as "Automatically update workflow status to the current stage name", or workflow action "Set workflow status". If I use the OOTB Folder content type, everything's fine. But I need custom fields
    for folder as well.
    The workflows can be started then it seems unreasonable that they are not associated with the items of the new content type, considering I set my new content type to be the child of the existing Folder content type. So why any item under this new content
    type does not have the workflow status column? I've tried removing the workflow from the list and publishing back using SPD without success.
    I also notice that when you associate a new content type to a document library/list which has some custom columns, you cannot edit those columns to be used in the new content type. You need to delete those columns and recreate them, then the option "Add
    to all content types" is there. Is this expected design?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    According to your post, an error occurred when you created a custom Edit form for new content type.
    We can do as follows:
    1.Add the MyNameSpace.MyNewEditPage dll file into GAC(C:\Windows\assembly).
    2. Execute the iisreset command.
    We can create a new content type using visual studio 2012/2013.

  • Can't create a Content Type List Item on Visual Studio 2010

    Can't create a Content
    Type List Item on Visual Studio 2010

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to select the specific content type in new item form.
    This is a default behavior. The "Add new item" link uses the default content type and does not display a dropdown list to change that value. This behavior is hard coded into the control and can't be changed.
    Here are some similar threads for your reference:

  • New Content Type with RDL template

    I'm building a new Project Server 2010 site template and one of the libraries that I want to provide will store the Status Reports for each Project.
    I'm struggling with what seems like a simple concept.
    Create a new Content Type that uses the status_report.RDL as it's template so that users can click on the 'New Document' button drop down in the ribbon and select 'Status Report' from a list of possible document templates and then the status report opens, they
    add the required parameters, run the report and then 'Export' it as an Excel Sheet which they can store in the library as a point in time report of the projects status.
    Am I asking too much or do I just need to decypher the way that SharePoint builds the URL for the report from the actual .RDL file that's stored in a library in order to enter it as the location of the content type template?
    Thanks in advance.
    N03L.

    I should add that I'm planning on having this content type stored in a Content Type Hub and published for use in another Site Collection.

  • What is the need of creating New order type in PO

    Dear Experts,
                 I have a doubt in MM, what is the need of creating New Order Types?  Please explain with Business scenario.  Thanking you,
    Regards,
    Elangovan.A

    Hi Elangovan
    Whenever you have a doubt like this...
    --- just verify the config settings for your parameter (order type here).
    ---Also check whether authorizations can be given for this ?
    ---Do you need it for specific analysis ? Are there standard reports/listings available ?
    So, some of the uses of order type are:
    1) What are the parameters controlled by order type ?
    It controls the number ranges and screen layouts etc. So, if you want to have different set of number ranges and different screen settings, then you may need a new order type.
    2) Authorizations can be controlled with order type.
    3) You can also use it in analysis/listings

  • Can we create new partner types for quallity notifications in SAP system?

    Can we create new partner types for quallity notifications in SAP system?
    The business requirement is to limit the available entries for partners  displayed when they search in quality notification. I have already created new partner functions & assigned the relevant partner types, however struggling with defining new partner types.
    Would appreciate help in resolving this.
    Thanks,
    Nilesh

    I know this customisation setting ...It allows us to create the partner functions & assign it to the partner determination procedure.
    Then you can assign the procedure to the notification type.
    This customisation setting does not solve the problem I have.
    I'm looking for the partner type creation process which we assign to the partner function.

    Then I went to ZV0000(NSC Quotation Output)  and ZV0001(NSC Order Output) determination procedures and changed outputtypes to ANSC and BNSC instead of AN00 and BN00.
    Now what should i do next?? I went to 'Assign Output determination procedures' but here no new entries can be added and I cant find procedures which I created.
