How to create a three state approval workflow in SharePoint 2013 using visual studio 2013

Hi Everyone,
i have a requirement like 3 state to approve. Here is the details:- when the item added into the list it will go for reviewer. Once the reviewer review the item, he will assign the task to concern person/department(Parallel process more than two persons).
Once they will approve the request again it will come back to reviewer and he will assign the task to team member(parallel process). Once the team member accepted then workflow terminate.
i want develop this workflow using visual studio 2013 only, not using designer.. 
Thanks in Advance.....

Hello,
you can find multiple sample on the web like those

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee231606.aspx
I don't think that's very different using VS2013 or VS2012

    Dear Team,

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to create a SharePoint 2013 workflow using Visual Studio 2013.

  • SharePoint 2013 State Machine Workflow Developped using Visual Studio 2013 Terminated

    Hi all,
    I developped a state machine workflow using Visual Studio 2013, and deplyed to SharePoint 2013, the workflow work fine for first task, and some times for second task.
    after that the workflow become terminated with below error:
    - System.Activities.Statements.WorkflowTerminatedException: The workflow instance exceeded the throttle of 10000 activities executed in a row and could not be unloaded because it was not persistable.
    I spent many days to solve this issue but witout any result...
    Please advice...

    Hi,
    According to your description, there seems an endless loop in your workflow which makes the workflow exceed the throttle.
    A suggestion is that you can create a new clean sample state machine workflow firstly, when it works without error, then adding other activities with custom logic
    gradually.
    By doing this, it would be easier to find out what might cause the error in this workflow.

  • Create office app for word using visual studio 2013

    Mohamed Abdeen

    Hi Mohamed Abdeen,
    Please try to enable a build-in app for Office, such as "Bing dictionary" and check if the task pane pop-up.
    If the "Bing dictionary" works well, I suppose that this issue might be caused by itself. I recommend you post the question to Word for DEV forum:
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=worddev&filter=alltypes%2Calllanguages&sort=lastpostdesc
    If all the apps can't be used, they might be blocked. Please go to File/option/trust center/trusted app catalogs/enable it.

  • How I can use Visual Studio 2013 to create lists or libraries via remote?

    Hello guys,
    I use visual studio on my machine and try to create a list, but the sharepoint server is on another machine. It is possible to run a program on my computer and then create a list on the sharepoint server. If yes, how can I achieve this?
    Best regards
    Matthias

    You can create and manage lists and libraries using SharePoint Designer. To use Visual Studio you would have to create a SharePoint project, create a feature, define the list, etc. then create a Solution package and deploy that to the server. If you just
    want to manually add a list then use Designer.

  • How to determine which CDockablePane in a group is currently active in Visual Studio 2013

    I understand that to activate a pane, I can do the following:
    dockablePane->ShowPane(TRUE, FALSE, TRUE);
    But, in a group of panes, how can I tell which pane is currently active?
    For instance, let's say there are 3 groups of panes on the screen.  The first group contains three tabs captioned "A", "B", and "C".  The second group contains "D", "E", and "F" and the
    third group contains "G", "H", and "I".
    How would I determine the active pane within each group?  (As an example for reference, within Visual Studio in the left pane group, I can currently see the contents of "Solution Explorer" while "Class View", "Property M...",
    "Resource Vi..." and "Team Explo..." are within the same group but not active.  In the bottom group, I can see the contents of "Output" while "Find Results 1" and "Find Results 2" are present but not active".  
    In the right group, I can see "MySource.cpp" while "MySource.h" is present but not active.  So, I need to know how to request from each pane whether they are the current tab within their container or not.
    Steve

    Hi Steve,
    Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.
    (As an example for reference, within Visual Studio in the left pane group, I can currently see the contents of "Solution Explorer" while "Class View", "Property M...", "Resource Vi..." and "Team Explo..."
    are within the same group but not active. In the bottom group, I can see the contents of "Output" while "Find Results 1" and "Find Results 2" are present but not active". In the right group, I can see "MySource.cpp"
    while "MySource.h" is present but not active. So, I need to know how to request from each pane whether they are the current tab within their container or not.
    This scenerio in your example, we don't need to know the current tab within which tab group. Actually I don't understand why do you need to know that? If you are using
    AFX_DOCK_TYPE::DT_SMART   model dock pane, the dock pane should be implemented in a internal MFC
    CSmartDockingManager
    class and it is not intended to be used directly from your code. . You could read the source code of this class at VS installed path-> VC->altmfc->src->mfc->afxsmartdockingmanage.cpp
    For the dock pane layout in VS interface, I remember there is a sample named Visual Studio Demo sample in Visual C++ 2008 Feature Pack. You can download it at here.
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/b4e6cb6e-e2a8-4e02-9c67-0dc431618157/visual-c-2008-feature-pack-samples-where-to-find?forum=vcgeneral
    And the dock pane control implements the core functionality that controls docking layout in a main frame window by CDockingManager class.
