Document review in workflow

Hi folks,
is there a simple way to review the document sent via approval workflow to the user?
In the default approval workflow only the location of the file is provided; since I want to check the document before approval I have to go to this location first and then approve or reject the document.
I saw examples in the BPEL custom workflows, but then I need a licensed BPEL engine etc.
Thanks,
Kresimir

Hi Rick,
Its two different workflow for review and approval. but approval works fine as it creates work item one after other .for expmaple if set 3 approvers then first is generated for 1st user and unless he apporves it then new work item for other user does not get created.
and for review 4 work items created if i set 4 reviewers at a time.and even in my z table where the apporvers/reviewers are updated once wf gets triggered after saving the documents in RR status.
even i checked log but could not able to find anything wrong in the log,will check once again throughly.intially is says a meesage "Execution interrupted",is is something wrong and the message is SWF_RUN 611.
Regards
Prsahu

How to move a document to a particular document library after workflow review and approval

Hello ,
I want to do a work flow for a document review and its approval, if the document is approved
then it should be moved to a document library called "Approved Documents". I have done
following steps but don't know how to move the document to another document library.
Library > Library settings > Add a work flow
> customized Three state work flow
and it is generating work flow review emails but don't know how to move the document
somebody please help how to do this????

You can either create another SPD workflow which will run on item changed event. This workflow will check if the document status is approved and if it approved it moved document to different library. SharePoint designer does have an activity to move list
items.
SharePoint Designer workflow: Move a document from one library to another
Or you can write an event receiver which will get triggered on ItemUpdated and again if the status of the document is approved it will move your document to destination library.
Writing an event receiver will require custom coding as oppose to SPD approach.

Shared PDF document review

Hi everybody,
I'm using Acrobat X Professional and would like to try out the shared PDF document review via acrobat.com
However, when I choose "send for shared review" I cannot select "acrobat.com", I can only choose an internal server. Already checked the preferences and tried a new installation, but nothing changed.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Document review process

I have a question about the workflow of a document review using Acrobat 9.
When I send a document for review and people make comments, when I want to reply, what is the best way to send the document back? The way i am doing it was to send the document back for review again. It just seems that there is a step out of line doing it that way. It may be the only way, but i just needed to check with someone else that may be using this.
Thanks

Thanks for answering ...
Still, does anyone has an idea about the first error I mentioned?
I tried to follow instructions in the Document Review Process Tutorial (to create a whole new project/bpel process), when I tried to compile it I got the following errors:
Error(80) [ORABPEL-10014] Unresolved variable
Description: In line 80 of <bpel file> of the <to> is not defined
I went through the bpel code and it is failing in the setUserDefinedAttributes at each of the copy rules.
I opened the Rules in the Diagram editor and it looked ok:
expression: concat("Review of " ,bpws:getVariableData('inputVariable','payload','/client:DocumentReview2ProcessRequest/client:documentTiltle'))
To: Xpath: /task:task/task:title
The only thing is that the task:title was not highlighted as usual, so I tried by going through the tree and highlight it .. the xpathd did not change but the entry was now highlighted. I compiled it again and now the error for that specific variable is gone. now I am getting the error on the next Assignment rule...
The fact that by using the WF template to create the process left this kind of errors and that they are fixed by going through them and re-do the copy rule looks to me like a bug.. Any feedback is appreciated

Document change via workflow log.......

Dear all
In our scenario, I am creating a word document in workflow.After creation its going to first level approver for his decision.consider he is not executed the doc.
When I check the status of document from the workflow log(from :Work item executed by me), its allowing me to change the doc.If I made any changes its updating the document,which is already waiting for decision.......Is this correct?Is there any possibilities to restict the document changes from the workflowlog view?
Not only for Word doc.......other doc also.........

I feel you can restrict this by putting some authorization. May be there is something you can restrict in the HOLD Document option.
Thanks

We are about to embark on our first java project around document management and workflow.
I would be interested to know how others have approached similar projects – Open Source applications or other tools/APIs.
It would also be good to know of any issues encountered along the way.
Thanks,

Extend/modify deadline in Acrobat Pro 8 shared document review

Is it possible to extend or modify the deadline for an Acrobat Pro 8 shared document review?

Christian,
No it's not possible to extend/modify the deadline in Acrobat 8 shared reveiws. These features have beed added in Acrobat 9. In Acrobat 8, the reviewers can add comments even after the deadline has expired. The review file can however be checked out of the review by saving a copy of the file using the 'save an archive copy' option under file menu(File> Save as archive copy), when the reveiw process is complete.
Thanks,
Richa

Create document set by workflow based on external list

Hello,
I'm wondering if the following is possible:
I have a external list with all my projects.
Next to that i have an document library where i place all the documents about the projects in document sets. Is it possible to automatically create the document sets based on the external list?
So when a new record is created in the database (External list) it automatically creates a document set. (The document sets have an external data column which refers to the projects external data)
I was thinking of an workflow, but i don't know how to accomplish this. I'm just a beginner with SharePoint.
Kind regards,
Robbert-Jan

Hi Robbert ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to create a document set for an external list in SharePoint 2013.
For achieving your demand, you can refer to the article:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff394479(v=office.14).aspx
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/chandru/archive/2013/08/10/sp2013-creating-document-set-using-workflow.aspx
One thing to notice is you cannot associate workflow with External List because workflow engine cannot run on back end system.

Word document created by Workflows do not open

We are using Sharepoint Online (2013 version) and sharepoint Designer 2013
We have a requirement by which we would like to update a 'Word template' with the metadata information from a Document Set. A word document is created after the workflow executes, but the
created document is corrupt.
It does not open in Word Web App and when I open it using Word, I get errors.
I have Word 2010 installed on my machine. Can this be some kind of incompatibility?
I was going through some threads in this forum and noticed that this problem has been reported before also.
Is this some kind of a known issue when creating documents using Designer workflows?
What will be the alternate solution to meet this requirement
Any suggestions in this regard would be helpful
Regards,
Maneesh Agrawal

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the word documents created by workflow could not open.
Did the issue occur in other libraries? You can create a new workflow, then check whether it works.
You can also use the Copy item action for a workaround.
Here is what you can try.
1. Have your template in a folder that is hidden from your views.
2. Copy the template file with a name of your choice using "Copy list item" action
3. Use "Update List Item" action to change the properties.
For more information:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/forums/154/t/155334.aspx
As this is the forum for the SharePoint server, I’m not familiar with the SharePoint online.
For this issue, you can also post your question to the forum for SharePoint Online:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/forums/154.aspx.
More experts will assist you, then you will get more information relation to SharePoint Online.
Thank you for your understanding and support

Document Review

Hi,
I’m looking to setup a document review approval process. I have Acrobat 9 Professional which seems to have good inbuilt commenting / review functionality.
The problem I have is this. I have the ability to set up the reviews however I won’t always be the document author.
I need this kind of document flow.
Document is created
Document is placed on a share for review
Reviews take place
Comment gathered and passed back to author
Author adds final comments as to whether they are going to implement the changes
Changes made
Changed document re-reviewed to ensure changes have been made.
Any suggestions as to the best way I can accomplish this. Only I have Acrobat Pro everyone else (including the authors) just have the Reader.
Many Thanks.

That depends.
Do you have Acrobat Pro? You're lacking any information required to give you an answer.

Reviewer Added Workflow

Hi all, can you help me with the following issue:
I am using the SCSM functionality to automatically add reviewer by clicking the "Line Manager Should Review" checkbox. In this case manager's name should be automatically included in Reviewer's list. All users have managers in AD. I found that
the workflow responsible for this action is "Reviewer Added Workflow".
The problem is that in some Service Requests the name of the manager is not populated automatically. This happens in 30% of the Service Requests which is not good.
I checked that all workflows are with status "Succeeded" even those with missing Reviewers:
So, can you please advice me where the problem might be? Is it a workflow problem or
something else...<o:p></o:p>
Thank You!<o:p></o:p>

Hi,
"Line Manager Should Review" is a legacy from SCSM 2010 and is actually adding the manager for the user
creating the request. So the question here is, do the user that created that request have a manager specified?
