Hi,
Thanks for posting your query,
There are a lot of mechanisms for doing this, but doing a simple export from your dev environment and then an import into your prod environment is probably a good place to start. You can move the whole site or just a list/library. You can do it via PowerShell
or Central Admin:
Export:

Import:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee428322.aspx
I hope this is helpful to you. Please mark it as
Answered. If this works

SharePoint 2010 Designer Workflow - Pause Until Fails Succeeds

Hi,
I have created a SharePoint 2010 Designer list workflow, which contains a step to pause until date time. My issue is this step works inconsistently, sometimes it will execute after few hours some other times it will fail.
Given screen shot is a case which execution delayed. Pause until set 4:10 pm but worked at 2:46 pm only. Please advice.
Thanks in advance :) ...

There seems to be some issues in your timer job , you can use STSADM to view the status or activate the job if not active as explained here(STSADM should works for 2010 also) -

How to deploy SSRS 2008 reports to Sharepoint 2013.

Hi,
Can some one guide me how to deploy SSRS 2008 reports to SharePoint 2013 by giving the exact steps from where to begin. We have all our reports deployed in SharePoint 2010.Need to migrate those reports to Sharepoint 2013 instance. I

also.Kindly help me by providing step by step method.
Thanks,

If you don't just want to upgrade your database, simply open the report project (which should be on your local file system) and edit the report properties, changing the Report Server URLs appropriately to the new SharePoint server URLs.

How i can transport request created in R3AR2 from Quality to Production ?

Hi, Gurus !
I'm new in CRM 7.0, and need your help. Well, we made our implementation in 7.0 version, and the things will be fine, until the start of work.....
Well, the initial download of CUSTOMER_MAIN (in transaction R3AR2) do'n't run OK, because a lot of customers in selection have a bad data.... and this time, anybody change this data,
Today, i know how to re-made this task.....
But my question is : how can transport this request, created in R3AR2, from Quality to Production ?
If the transport is not possible, the answer for the question is remake the request in Production ?
Thank you very much.....
Loduca

Did you put your development in a transport when you first saved it? If yes, and if your transport system is properly configured you can release the transport using SE09 and import it into the production using transaction STMS.

MS SharePoint 2010 Designer Workflow Email - Enhanced Rich Text Field look-up values on HTML email have large spaces

MS InfoPath 2010 form with RTF (Rich Text Fields)
MS SharePoint 2010 Custom Library
MS SharePoint 2010 Designer Workflow Send Email
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-designer-help/send-e-mail-in-a-workflow-HA010239042.aspx
https://www.nothingbutsharepoint.com/sites/eusp/pages/creating-html-emails-with-spd-workflows.aspx
Hi all of the above work, our question is how to control the RTF (Rich Text Field) look up values to the InfoPath 2010 form in the HTML email?
How to FORMAT the RTF look up value? in the HTML email
EXAMPLE
we have a InfoPath 2010 form published in the SharePoint 2010 custom list library there are 5 RTF fields (Notes1, Notes2, Notes3, Notes4, Notes5) there are other plain text fields, date fields, and other field types in the form
We use a HTML table to make the email look like the InfoPath form, so when the users fill out the form and they get the email notification everything looks the same.
Our problem is the EXTRA LINE SPACE in the RTF look up values
We want to remove any leading spaces, and line spaces between HTML table cells
Our Workflow has the HTML in a Workflow variable, as you know it does not support remote CSS it has to be in-line style for any formatting we want all cells to have
valign="top" the email should align at the top of the cell, all field types do except the RTF look up values they make the email look bad and they contain a lot of white space.
Please test this in your enviroment
<table>
<tr><td>Title:</td><td>[%Current Item:Title%]</td><td>[%Current Item:Notes1%]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Created by:</td><td>[%Current Item:CreatedBy%]</td><td>[%Current Item:Notes2%]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Date Created:</td><td>[%Current Item:Created%]</td><td>[%Current Item:Notes3%]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Modified by:</td><td>[%Current Item:ModifiedBy%]</td><td>[%Current Item:Notes4%]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Date Modified:</td><td>[%Current Item:Modified%]</td><td>[%Current Item:Notes5%]</td></tr>
</table>
I could not update the question below to the proper forum section. that is why i am asking again.

Hi IssackB,
perhaps you may try this article:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/f8fa2a11-9f74-4dd2-b277-21ce872fdcb2/can-we-add-rich-text-editor-to-the-sharepoint-designer-2010-workflow?forum=sharepointcustomizationprevious
there are some notes that perhaps you may check:
Use the same font for all the controls to ensure consistent spacing between rows.
Choose Size from the Format menu, and then choose To Fit from the menu that appears. This adjusts the size of each control, depending on the font set for the data that appears
in the control.
NOTE: The Print Preview and Output To commands use different algorithms for calculating text width; therefore, the text may occupy more or less
space in the RTF file.
Reduce the amount of blank space above and below the report controls. Any vertical
space between the controls is converted to whole lines
in the RTF file. For example, a
space of .02 inches can increase to .1667 inches in the
RTF file.
Make sure controls on the same output row are not too close to each other or overlapping. This can cause the Output To command to omit the controls or to align the columns incorrectly
in the RTF file.
Use the Align command from the Format menu to ensure that a row of controls is aligned properly on the report. If a row of controls is not aligned properly, the Output To command may place the controls
in different rows, causing extra blank
spacein the RTF file.
and please have a check there are updates for exchange 2013 and will be available with the upcoming release of CU4 for Exchange 2013, that stated the format rtf was saved instead HTML. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2862739/en-us

Renaming SharePoint 2010 Designer Approval Process Action Variable Name

Hi,
I am creating a 7 level(Mutiple) Approval Workflow in SharePoint 2010 Designer.
Whenever i add a new Approval Task Process action it adds 14 to 15 varialbes like Duration Unit,Duration Description,IsApproved,IsDeleted,EnableContentTypeApproval etc.
Since i am adding 7 Approval Task Process actions i am getting the variables added as Duration Unit1,Duration Description1,IsApproved1,IsDeleted1 etc in the Workflow.
I want to rename them to track it in a better way so that i can change them like Duration Units-Level1,Duration Description-Level1,IsApproved-Level1,IsDeleted-Level1 etc.
I am able to rename all the varaibles except Duration Unit and Duration Description. I see the Local varaible type as Duration Unit for Duration Unit varialbe and i am not able to modify it since i don't see a Type Called Duration Unit in Workflow variables
type properties.
For Duration Description i can rename it but while publishing i am getting the error as mentioned in the below blog.
http://spnovice.blogspot.com/2012/12/spd-workflow-error-path-needs-to-point.html
It's hard to track this varible with names like Duration Description,Duration Description 1,Duration Description2,Duration Description3,Duration Description4,Duration Description5,Duration Description6 etc.
How to rename these two variables in Approval 2010 Designer workflow.
I see varailbes like CC and Approvers which i dont need.Can we remove the unused vaiables also so that i can have limited no of vaaibles in my workflow.
Please help.
Thanks, Vijay Arockiasamy

Scott,
I have created 7 different approval workflows on a single list.Just followed the recommendation from
Keith Hudson, J.D in this blog.
https://www.linkedin.com/groups/sharePoint-designer-2010-multilevel-approval-136589.S.5824115633184350208
But as per this blog the workflows triggers only when a new item is created not when a an item is changed.
I have few questions on these 7 workflows on a single list.
1.If the Approver rejects the request the request needs to reubmit it with some changes.In this case if the requestor edits the existing list item the workflow will not trigger.
2.I am using Wait on Field action.For Example if Level 1=Approved and Level 3 is pending then level 2 approval workflow will trigger.
In level 2 workflow i am using update list item action and updating the Level status=approved.Int this case level 1 workflow will also trigger if i am executing the workflow on both item created and item changed event.
Could you please help on this.
Thanks, Vijay Arockiasamy

Move file from one library to another library via SharePoint 2010 Designer Workflow

Can SharePoint 2010 designer be able to move a file from one library to another using workflow? I tried to use the copy list item but it won't show my destination library. I prefer not to use the 3rd part workflow like
http://www.codeplex.com/SPDActivities
Please advise.
Brian
Brian

Hi Brain,
From your narration, I undersatnd that you want to move document to another library across site or site collection. However,
the copy list item action is used for coping list item to another library or list in the same site, so you can’t achieve it through ootb workflow action. So to move document to another library across site under the same site collection, then you can use site
content and structure. If across site collection, then I suggest you use that the 3<sup>rd</sup> part workflow action.
For more information about site content and structure,

SharePoint 2010 Designer workflow failing in an Ad hoc manner.

Hi Friends,
We have a SharePoint 2010 Designer workflow with 25 approval stages (supposed to run for around 1.5 yrs. ) . We have a consistent problem in the workflow as it keeps failing with message "error occured" at some stages(not uniform) after a users
tries to submit his Tasks .
After lot of troubleshooting , we found that all the workflow which is getting failed have a Tasks on which the due date of tasks has exceeded. I meant to say that user is submitting his Task (which is a custom info-path 2010 form ) after the due date of
the Tasks.
Can any one suggest if this is supposed to be the Obvious behavior of workflow ? That is ,if the user submits his Task when the due date has passed , the workflow will fail with error.

Installing and deploying a .webpart file in SharePoint 2013

I have a webpart that took from a SharePoint 2010 web site from its webparts library. This webpart has the .webpart extension. I downloaded it as a copy. Now I want to install it to a SharePoint 2013 site ti its webpart gallery. I tried using Visual Studio
by opening the .webpart file and copy its XML to the new empty .webpart source code. Also I uploaded the .webpart file to the Sharepoint 2013 WebPart Library. That also not successful. There was an error regarding when I insert the webpart to a page with a
Correlation ID.
The error is at the below.
Unable to display this web part. To troubleshoot the problem, open this web page in a Microsoft SharePoint Foundation compatible HTML editor such as ...........................
Correlation ID: cb3b839c-b011-e0f5-999c-31292d78623c
Then how am I supposed to do this properly. I am new to Sharepoint.
Could someone please help me to solve this matter?
Thank you,
Regards,
Chiranthaka

What web part is it? Is it a custom / third party one?
Also, more information on the .webpart structure might be handy -

How to use custom forms created in SharePoint 2007 to work in SharePoint 2010

Hi,
We have created some custom forms in SharePoint 2007 (for add a New item and Edit item for some list and libraries) after migration to SP 2010 we found out thet we can use those custom forms because the document versions are 12.0.0.0 which
should be 14.0.0.0 in SharePoint 2010
Could someone please tell me if we can migrate forms from SP2007 to SP2010 as well?
I even tried to change document Version and content but still not working! Do we need to recreate those forms in SP2010?
Thanks
Kate

Hi Khojasteh,
How did you do for changing document version and content?
Whether you tried to set the forms update automatically, then re-publish them.
There are some similar posts for your reference:

How to import Solarwinds Dashboards into a SharePoint 2010 site?

Hello ,
I am planning to import solarwinds dashboard in a SharePoint 2010 site, so could anyone please tell me how to achieve this.
Thanks and Regards,
Srikanth G.

Hi Srikanth,
Main purpose of the dashboard is to display the real time data and the dashboard should be updated very often. This can be achieved by using RSS feed.
RSS feed gives data in XML format. By Using the below piece of code, you can iterate the XML and fetch the data. Once you receive the data , keep it in datatable and display it in the dashboard webpart as you like.
XmlReaderSettings settings = new XmlReaderSettings();
settings.IgnoreComments = true;
settings.IgnoreWhitespace = true;
settings.CheckCharacters = true;
settings.CloseInput = true;
settings.IgnoreProcessingInstructions = true;
var client = new WebClient();
string URL = <SolarWindsRSSURL>;
try
var feedAsString = client.DownloadString(URL).Replace((char)(0x1F), Convert.ToChar(" "));
XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(new MemoryStream(Encoding.Default.GetBytes(feedAsString)), settings);
//XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(URL);
SyndicationFeed Feed = SyndicationFeed.Load(reader);
reader.Close();
foreach (SyndicationItem item in Feed.Items)
//Solar Winds RSS data

Single line of text,
Multiple line of text,
Choice
Number,
Date,

Now i need to export the excel data to SharePoint list.
When iam trying to copy data from excel to List , it is showing as "The selected cells are read only".
can someone guide on this to export spread sheet data to SharePoint list without importing Spreadsheet.
Thanks in advance.
Badri

I've updated the example of using PowerShell to include a Person field (user field) and a choice field.
The CSV file has the following columns:
TRIP_NO
VESSEL_NAME
FLAG
AGENT_NAME
CURRENT_LOCATION
RPT_DATE
EMPLOYEE
EMPLOYEE_TYPE
#Get the CSV file and connect to the SharePoint list
$vessellist = import-csv -Path C:\Temp\VesselInPortReport.csv
$l = (Get-Spweb "http://devmy101").GetList("http://devmy101/Lists/smarInPort")
#Get the lists EmployeeType field (choice)
$employeeType = $l.Fields["EmployeeType"] -as [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFieldChoice]
#Loop through the items and add them to the list
$r = 1;
foreach($item in $vessellist)
$ni = $l.items.Add();
#Add the Title, using the rows VESSEL_NAME column
$ni["Title"] = $item.VESSEL_NAME;
#Add the "Date Recorded" field, using the csv rows "RPT_DATE" column
[DateTime]$rd = New-Object System.DateTime;
if([DateTime]::TryParse($item.RPT_DATE, [ref]$rd)){
$ni["Date Recorded"] = $rd;
#Add the csv rows "TRIP_NO" column to the new list items "Trip Id" field (SPFieldNumber)
[Int64]$tn = New-Object System.Int64;
if([Int64]::TryParse($item.TRIP_NO, [ref] $tn)){
$ni["Trip Id"] = $tn;
#Add some other text properties
$ni["Flag"] = $item.FLAG;
$ni["Agent Name"] = $item.AGENT_NAME;
$ni["Current Location"] = $item.CURRENT_LOCATION;
#Add user information
$ni["employee"] = $w.EnsureUser($item.EMPLOYEE); #In this case, the $item.EMPLOYEE value from the spreadsheet is a persons name. Eg. "Matthew Yarlett"
$employeeType.ParseAndSetValue($ni,$item.EMPLOYEE_TYPE); #In this case, the $item.EMPLOYEE_TYPE value from the spreadsheet is valid choice present in the EmployeeType list field. Eg. "Manager"
#Update the item
$ni.Update()
Write-Host ([String]::Format("Added record:{0}",$r));
$r++;

How to Save site as template in SharePoint 2010

hello,
I am little bit confused about how I can save a site as a template in moss 2010!
In SharePoint 2007 it was simple > site actions > save site as template... and done!
but I do not find how to make that in the new SharePoint, I would be really happy if someone could tell me how to do that.
I found some tutorial:
To create a Site Template, browse to the Site you want to create from. Go to Site Actions –> Site Settings –> Save site as template (under the Site Actions heading). Give your template a name, and don't forget to check the "Include Content" box if you want to include library and list content in the template. This will create a new site template in your Solutions Gallery, which you can then use when creating new sites. You can also download directly from the Solutions Gallery to a .WSP file.
but the thing is, I do not have the "save site as template" link! I also checked if I need some special site feature activated, but I have all activated.
thank you in advance

I imagine you are trying to save a publishing site as a template, correct? If so, the save as site template link is not available for publishing sites. This was not supported in MOSS and I imagine isn't in SharePoint 2010. The reason was due to publishing sites having pages and layouts tied to content types that do not move with the template.
If you would like a work around, you can disable the publishing feature (which will then make the save as site template link visible), save the site as a template, then re-enable the publishing feature. You would have to re-enable the publishing feature on each new site built from this template, if desired.
Go to Site Actions > Site Settings > Manage site features under Site Actions. Deactive the SharePoint Server Publishing feature, then go back to the Site Settings page. You should now see the save as site template link. After you save the template, turn back on SharePoint Server Publishing.

How to "Capture Multiple Levels" of a SharePoint 2010 site

Hello! I have an end user I'm trying to support who is trying to update her SharePoint site so she can print the .pdf format. Whenever she tries to "Get Entire Site she gets an authorization failure and it says Error: Nothing Done. We have migrated the site content over from the old intranet page into a SharePoint 2010 site. However, user informed me that she needs to have the ability to print the entire site content and she had been doing this using Adobe Acrobat X Pro. How do I correct the authorization failure message? I'm a SharePoint administrator so please let me know what I need to do on the back end to get this to work. Thanks!

I have seen the same error a number of times. I found that certain domains would not work and give me the error msg. and not allow me to capture a website into PDF format.
http://www.wisconsindot.gov/projects/index.htm generates the 'Authorization Failure' error msg. and will not create a PDF file.
http://www.dot.wi.gov/projects/index.htm and http://www.dot.state.wi.us/projects/index.htm both work fine and create a PDF file as intended.
Do you have an alternative domain you can use for the URL? If so, try that and let me know if it works.
