How can I change the 'Check-in' trigger for contribution step in Workflow

We have created a Criteria workflow where the workflow is triggered based on a custom field called 'Publish Status'. During check-in, when a content author sets 'Publish Status' = 'Sent to Review', the content is sent to Reviewer's Workflow Assignments. The client however wants to be able do this from the 'Update Metadata screen' i.e., trigger the workflow and send the document to review from the Update Metadata screen and not just check-in screen.
The workflow scenario that client wants is as follows:
- Author checks-in content
- Author previews content using custom Preview widget from Content Info screen. This is custom code written that gives author the ability to preview their content within the context of the portal where UCM content is rendered.
- Author is satisfied with their content.
- Author should just to go 'Update metadata' and set 'Publish Status = Sent to Review' and this should send the content to Reviewers' workflow assignments.
The problem here is that currently the trigger to send content to Reviewer is only SET by the Check-In screen. How do we change this so it can be triggered directly from the 'Update Metadata' screen and does not require 'Check-in'. The client is right here in that if there is already some checked-in content in UCM that they want to send to review now, why should they have to go to 'Check-out' screen to get to 'Check-in' screen to trigger workflow, why can't they avoid all this and just go to Update Metadata.
We thought of using Basic Workflow as well, but that does not solve our problem, since once the content ID is selected in the basic workflow, the contribution step still requires user to Check-out/Check-In content. Can anyone suggest a way to send content for review by using 'Update Metadata' screen.

Hi tanushreem,
Update triggered workflows are not an uncommon requirement. However, they are a small customization. We have standard and supported components that will do this and would be happy to chat with you more about them. Please let me know.
Alternatively, it is a fairly straightforward customization if you wanted to build it yourself.
Warmly,

  • :-)  How can we change the default file path for Bank file ( dmee ) ?

    Hi All,
    We encounter a problem.
    Electronic bank file ( created after a F110 run ) are created, in an automatic way to the DIR_TEMP directory. ( On the SAP server )
    How can we change the default file path for Bank files ( dmee ) ?
    We'd like to specify another path.
    Thx for your help.
    Erwan

    Hello,
    Make sure that you have created the directory in transaction code AL11 with the help of basis consultants.
    You can link your PC directory to the application server.
    You can maintain the path whether your file needs to get saved in OBPM4 against your DMEE structure example GB_BACS etc.
    If you do not maintain any path in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to temporary directory. If you give the directory path name in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to that directory with numbers 0001, 0002, 0003 etc till it reaches 9999 and reset from the beginning.
    If you give the path as well as file name as ABCD, then the file gets generated to that directory folder with ABCD0001, ABCD0002, ABCD0003 etc. till it reaches ABCD9999 and reset from the beginning.
    Hope this solves your problem.
    Regards,
    Ravi

  • How can i change the Director App Icon for Windows?

    How can i change the icon for my App for Windows? Director can do this from the Publish Settings. The Custom icon for app doesn't work. I select a .ico file for windows and Director can't attach this to the app.
    There is anothe way to do that simple like in Mac with the Contest folder?
    Regards
    Gino Delgado

    You can also try my RiEditor here: http://www.director-online.com/dougwiki/index.php?title=Resource_and_Icon_Editor
    However, to answer your original question directly, I suspect there's something wrong with your .ico file as the feature in the publish settings works just fine, last I tried.

  • DITA + FM: How can I change the automatically insert text for the element info?

    Hello,
    when I insert the element info in a topic, FrameMaker automatically insert the text "ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:".
    How can I change that?
    I know how to change it for the elements result, postreq and prereq. I change the text format rules for the elements in the topic.edd.
    But the element info has no text format rules and when I search in the topic.edd for the text "additional" or "info" I dont find something.
    With kind regards,
    Nina

    Hi Scott,
    thanks a lot for your reply! I've found the code in the EDD on page 65.
    "... is using the @type attribute value ..." - I have changed the values in the DTD (Structure\xml\DITA\app\dtd\commonElements.mod), but that didn't had any effect, not even after a restart of FM. I also changed the note attribute values in "dita-map.edd.fm" and "topic.edd.fm". Nothing. When I insert a note tag FM still inserts the original values.
    Did I missunderstand something? Further tips?

  • How can I change the speed of slides for each song on the custom list?

    Hello - I am working on an anniversary slideshow in iphoto on my Mac.  It contains 145 photos.  I have a custom playlist of two songs.  I want to adjust the speed of the slideshow in the beginning to be slower because the song is slower.  Then I want the photos to move faster at the end.  I did notice I can specifically define the speed for each of the slides manually, but that would take forever.  Does anyone have a recommendation of a trick for doing this in batches?

    What is your iPhoto version?
    In iPhoto '11 you can change the duration for several slides at once, if you are using the Classic Theme or the Ken Burns theme.
    In that case do the following: SElect several slides at once and open the Settings. Click the "This slde" tab and change the "Show this slide for ..." setting.

  • How can I change the default page size for the Adobe PDF Printer?

    Hello All,
    I have cases where I need to switch the default paper size from 8.5x11 to 11x17 via api for the Adobe PDF Printer and have not been able to find how this can be accomplished.
    I am using C# .Net and would appreciate any help.
    Thanks in advance,
    Bob

    There is no Acrobat API for this, but so far as I know there doesn't need to be. The user can go change this from the Printers Control panel as needed. The Adobe PDF printer has some differences from regular printer drivers, but this isn't one of them.

    I am not sure, if this Will work on the title page:

    Double-tap the page containing the text you want to work with.
    Do the following:

    Choose the font size: Tap the text box, and tap the font size you want.
    Make changes to the text: Double-tap the text box, and type.
    You may need to change the Book Theme to have a different title font size.

  • How can I change the default EXPORT directory for latest iPhoto?

    Perhaps I am missing something, but I have as yet to find a way to set my default EXPORT directory. Since installing Lion and the iPhoto update, whenever I want to export it wants to put the image in 'Pictures', but I want 'Desktop' generally or somewhere else.
    I am all set with library and import location. In fact, Import is smart enough to remember where I import my stuff FROM - namely, the desktop.
    But once I have edited files and want to export them, the default jumps back to Pictures.
    Again, this is NEW and CHANGED behavior with the latest release to coincide with iOS 5 ...
    I just want it to remember my default from export to export ... heck, it even changes within the same session!

    I can certainly confirm the behaviour and have no solution to it.
    That said, in the export dialogue typing command-d will point the export to the desktop.
    Regards
