How can I add a link to an item within a workflow email - which will always find the item - even if it's status has changed?

I've used the method within the SharePoint designer to add a link to the workflow context current item URL, but when the current item status changes then obviously this link will no longer work.
How can I change this link so that it will always open the item, even if someone has changed it within the list, before I clink on the link?
This is an important one as over 300 people will use the list and many of these will be emails about items on the list will be in different time zones.  I don't want to have lots of mails from people saying "this list doesn't work" as it's
critical they keep using it.
Please help.
P.S.  I don't know if the <href> method will work, so if someone can confirm to me then that would be great.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that add a link to an item within a workflow email.
I’ m not very clear about the status you said. Please descript more detail which URL do you want to display.
Per my knowedge, you can display the following url in your email body:
[%Workflow Context: Current Item URL%]
[%Workflow Context: Current Site URL%]
[%Workflow Context: Workflow Status URL%]
[%Current Item: Encoded Absolute URL%]
Please start the workflow automatically when an item is changed and changed.
No matter how you  edit the item or update the approve status, the URLs remains the same.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best Regards,

  • How can i add css styling to all elements within a symbol.

    How can i add css styling to all elements within a symbol.
    For instance.
    If i have a symbol call "data" and within this i have 4 elements called 1,2,3,4 how do i add styling to all these elements without having to re-write code for each element.
    I know i can style a symbol called "data" by :
    sym.$("data").css("font-family", "baumans, sans-serif", "font-size", "15px");
    ...But this does not style the content of the elements 1,2,3 and 4
    If i were using standard CSS and HTML then all div's within a div called "data" would be styled the same.
    help "my friends of the code"

    Hi Justin,
    1) You have a syntax error here: sym.$("data").css("font-family", "baumans, sans-serif", "font-size", "15px");
    sym.$("data").css({ "font-family": "baumans, sans-serif", "font-size": "15px"} ); // correct
    sym.$("data").css( "font", "15px baumans, sans-serif" ); //correct
    2) Then, loading the jQuery file is not required. You can create a class or change tags.

    How can I add a person to an event (and send that person an invite) without resending the meeting invitation to all participants?

    Apple doesn't make it easy to do what you want.  However, here's how I do it. 
    Select the photo you want to move and create a new Event for it via the Event ➙ Create Event menu option.
    In the Event mode select the new Event with the one picture and drag it onto the Event you want to move the photo to.

  • How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc which has ample remaining free space? After preparing the new video for burning and clicking on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject.

    How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc with a video previously successfully recorded on it? (The disc has ample remaining free space.)
    After preparing the new video for burning and clicking in the File menu on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject. My assumption has been that iDVD would automatically find the free space and continue with the new recording from there. I'd be grateful if anyone can shine light on this.

    There are, but not with a DVD written as a movie disk. It must be closed when completed, or it doesn't work.
    Apple's built in Burn utility also automatically closes any data CD, DVD or Blu-ray disk you burn. Doesn't matter how much space is unused, you can't use it. You'd have to use a more advanced disk creation app, such as Toast Titanium. I then have the option of choosing to write the data as a session:
    I can keep doing this until the disk is full. If I've written five sessions to the disk, when I put it in the drive, five CD/DVD icons will appear on the desktop since the OS will treat each session as if they are separate physical disks. At any point you choose Write Disk when writing a group of data, that means you're closing the disk, and again can't add anything after that. So if I had written two sessions, and the third was Write Disk, it's over. I can't put anything else on that disk.

  • How can I add a link in a cell in pages to another document

    Hello I am new to this so be gentle with me
    Can anyone tell me if it is possible to add a link in a (table) cell in pages to another document on my Mac, so when I click on it, it will take me to the document
    Many Thanks
    Charles

    As far as I remember you couldn't do it in PAges 09 and Pages 5 has lost over 90 features that Pages 09 has so I would say no you can't. I can't test it right now. I had a quick look in the help (http://help.apple.com/pages/mac/5.0/?lang=en) and could find that you could link to another document from anywhere let alone a table cell.

  • How can I add a link to an external page to the iWeb created navigation menu?

    Here's a JavaScript that inserts a link in the navbar
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

  • How can I add a direct refrence to a task from an email

    Hi, I use a work flow to notify a user when a task is opened, how can I send with this task email notification a direct link to task itself? (same goes with opp/SR)

    This is a link to an Opty record on the DSA pod:
    https://secure-ausomxdsa.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/OpportunityDetail?OpptyDetailForm.Id=ABJA-XXXXXX
    To reuse this for any other record type or another system do the following:
    Open a record that you want to link to i.e. SR for DSA Demo and you get this URL at the top
    https://secure-ausomxdsa.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/ServiceRequestDetail?ServiceRequestDetailForm.Id=HU15-XXXXX&OMTGT=ServiceRequestDetailForm&OMTHD=ServiceRequestDetailNav&OMRET0=ServiceRequestHomepage&OCTYPE=Other&ocTitleField=Abstract&ocTitle=Send+copy+of+Annual+Report&ocEdit=Y
    As you can see the URL starts the same except it references ServiceRequestDetail instead of Opty detail.
    From the OnDemand screen copy everything from http:// to ServiceRequestDetail? ServiceRequestDetailFormID= and paste it into your workflow email.
    Click the Fx button and add the Row ID.
    Voila you now have a link in an email that will open the record that triggered the workflow.

  • How can I add a link to an essay written in Word?

    I'd like to assemble an iWeb site that includes links to essays I have written. These are in Word files. They are also on my iDisk. Is that the route? How would I do this?
    Thanks!

    Okay, now I got it to open in Firefox using your Cmd I trick. So it opens on the web. But the URL has an htm on the end, not an html. Thus, when I drag the address link to the desk top, so I can attach the site to a message, then try and open it, Firefox says "no page found" or some other error message.
    Although Word says its saving it as an HTML, it comes out as an HML. Is that where I'm going wrong? Or is it that I'm putting it in the wrong place on my iDisk. I've tried the Public folder, but I get the same problem.
    What next?
    Thanks!

  • How can I add multiple addresses to a group within address book?

    I realize you can add in addresses by going to 'Message' then 'add Sender to Address Book,' but what I'm interested in doing is within Apple Mail, adding multiple addresses into a specific group within address book. I've tried to do this using mail scripts but keep getting an error.
    Is it possible to do this?
    Thanks.

  • I have a 'family' yahoo email address which is shared across several phones. How can I set up my phone so if I delete an email which isn't relevant to me it doesn't automatically delete from the other phones?

    I share a yahoo email account with my husband and children. The emails may be for one or more or of us. When an email arrives on my iPhone 5C, if it is not relevant to me (because it's something he is dealing with) then I would like to delete it just from my phone without also deleting from his phone. Or it may be an attachment like a photo which I don't need stored on my phone, but will need to download when I get home and on the PC. He can delete from his Samsung without it deleting on my phone or on the PC, but I've not found a way of setting up my phone so it works the same way. Please can someone tell me which are the best settings to use?

    To set it up as POP you need to delete the account, reboot the phone by holding the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds), then add it back following these instructions: Forcing creation of a POP or IMAP email account
    I understand that you have used the same account for many years, but the technology is also changing constantly. Years ago the standard was POP (Post Office Protocol), which was designed at a time when it was inconceivable that anyone would access their email from more than one device. When people started using multiple devices, for the most part they wanted to see changes on one device mirrored on another. A new standard, IMAP (Internet Mail Access Protocol) was developed. With iMAP the master copy of all messages resides on a server, and multiple devices are kept in sync with the server. So if you delete a message from one device it is removed from the server, and then removed from all other devices when they next sync. This is the same way Microsoft Exchange works. Other benefits of IMAP include the ability to have multiple mail folders that are kept in sync across devices. In your case you could use this to create a separate folder for each family member, so they could move messages to their own folder and not clutter up the shared Inbox. Most computer mail readers can even automatically sort incoming mail into folders based on the contents of the message.
    IMAP is considered a "higher level" standard than POP. When you create a mail account iOS devices query the server and ask what it supports; if it says it supports IMAP then the account is automatically configured for IMAP. So if you really want POP you must fool it, as described in the link above. In my experience Android devices default to the highest level protocol also, and I suspect newer Blackberries do (although it has been 15 years since I used a BB).
