How to publish workflows created under content type to make it available in all my-sites.

Hi,
i followed this procedure to publish workflows in my-sites but even after activating workflow feature am unable to get created workflow templates in my-site.
Create a workflow and associate it with your content type in the hub.
Before publishing this content type, export the reusable workflow and import it in all the subscriber site collections or deploy your workflow to the farm if it is a farm solution
Activate your workflow feature
Now, your workflow is available in the hub as well as all the subscriber site collections.
Publish the content type. The workflow association will be publish.
can anyone help me out of this issue.

Hi,
As I understand, you encountered the issue after activating workflow feature.
Per my test, I can get the created workflow templates
after activating workflow feature by workflow 2010.
1. Check if you use SharePoint 2010 workflow because SharePoint 2013 workflow doesn’t work.
2. Reactive the workflow template feature in your site collection.
3. If it still doesn’t work, open the site collection you want to use the workflow in the SharePoint designer and associated the workflow with the content type in the site collection. After these steps, you can use workflow in your all site collection.
There is a similar thread:

How can I add Adobe Acrobat into my Applications under content type so I can open up pdfs in a firefox window?

firefox won't open pdf's in a new window. I get a blank page. When viewing my application options, Adobe Acrobat is not listed under content type anywhere. I entered about:plugins in the address bar and it is showing that I do in fact have Adobe acrobat.
File: nppdf32.dll
Version: 7.0.8.218
Adobe Acrobat Plug-In Version 7.00 for Netscape
I also know I have it, because I have no problem using it in IE.
What can I do to get pdfs to open in a firefox window?

Thanks. That worked.
I went to the profiles directory by putting %APPDATA% in the run window, then in explorer went to mozilla, firefox, profiles, and deleted the mimeTypes.rdf file after making sure firefox was closed. Opened firefox again and mailto links worked. Tried it on my friend's computer and it work on it as well.

OOTB Approval Workflow for a Content Type sends emails for 2 content types

My environment: SP 2013 Server (WFE-APP) + SQL
I have a few Content Types configured in a document library. Every content type has an OOTB approval workflow to fire an e-mail to the approver on each new/edit.
When I create a new file for testing, it first becomes checked out with no properties added. I then edit the properties to specify its content type and other fields. When I check in the document, SharePoint sends out an e-mail to the approver for that content
type which is correct. What SharePoint also does for this very same file is sends out an approval request e-mail for the default content type for that library which is something else than a desired content type.
This is something I cannot understand. I thought that the workflows start on a file 'Check in'. If I check in a file that is a certain content type, why does the approval for a default content type for a library trigger as well?

Hi,
Is it SharePoint 2013 workflow or previous 2010 model workflow? If it's SharePoint 2013, how are you associating workflow to content type. As per
MSDN "Unlike previous versions, SharePoint 2013 does not support workflows that are scoped to a
content type. However, the messaging infrastructure is extensible, so it can support
any arbitrary scope. As a developer, you can set to", workflow association with content type (which was possible in SharePiont 2010) is no longer available out of the box. You need to do it manually, (not sure how as there's no documentation yet
from MS) and programmatically.

Crystal Report Preview vs. SAP B1 Report Preview as a Layout under Content Type

Hello good day i'm trying to create a report that will be preview under A/R Invoice but the details need is under delivery module for example i create a serialize Item and set the Management Method on Every Transaction Under Item master data, so the transaction flow will be like this SO -> Delivery -> A/R Invoice. So under delivery transaction i will choose the serial that i will deliver so that under A/R Invoice Transaction i will no longer choose again the said serial that i choose on Delivery Transaction. There for on my Report i will Based on Delivery Transaction to get the chosen Serial But the Report will be Preview under A/R Invoice.

Error when associating workflow with Task Content Type

Using SharePoint Designer 2010, I have created a simple workflow that sends an email out when a tasks due date has past. I created this as a Global Workflow and then tried to "Associated to Content Type", selecting "Task". I am then taken
to... COMPANY PORTAL--> Site Settings--> Site Content Types--> Task--> Add a Workflow. When I try to associate the new "Global" workflow and select OK I get the following error...
Error
Workflows may not be associated with content types whose base is on 'WorkflowTask'.
I have looked up the error but find no real explination of what it means. And I have associated global workflows with custom content types and never had this issue.
So what's going on?
Thanks
Steve
Thanks in advance for your time. Steven

Hi ,
I understand that when you bind the workflow to Tasks content type, there is an error. I can reproduce this error. This is because we cannot add a reusable workflow to a workflow tasks content type. When you add the reusable workflow to the Tasks content
type, you must have checked the ‘Add this workflow to all content types that inherit from this content type’. In this way, the workflow will be added to all the Tasks content type and workflowtasks content type. There will an error. After you close the error
message, the workflow is added to the Tasks content type.
The workaround is the check No to ‘Add this workflow to all content types that inherit from this content type’.

Creating Custom Content Types

As the title suggests, does anyone know how to create Custom Content Types in Adobe Livecycle Content Services ES? I have looked far and wide across the www, and haven't had any luck with a straight forward, easy to follow, tutorial on the subject. I have seen it for Actions and Aspects, but not Content.
Thank you in advance,
Alex

Marc,
Thanks for your response. I've spent the past couple of days trying to get it to work, but I still cannot figure it out.
According to all documentation I have found, I have modified the files I thought were the same as the Alfresco files:
C:\...\jboss\server\all\deploy\contentservices.war\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\extension
+ .\liveCycleContentModel.xml
Added the <types> tag above the <aspects> tag, and created my type as specified online and also in a book
Then I copied the web-client-config.xml to the extension folder and renamed as web-client-config-custom.xml and added the code to Content Wizards and Action Wizards to display it in the web ui.
Am I missing anything? When I re-package the .war file and redeploy/restart JBOSS, my localhost:8080/contentspace is completely broken. no login in or anything but workspace is still in tact.
Thanks for any further help,
Alex

2013 Workflows - Trigger a workflow from a Content Type

So now that a workflow cannot be triggered from a Content Type, how are people doing this now?
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
J Sykes

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to trigger a workflow from a Content Type.
As we all know, we can attach a workflow to a Content Type, but the workflow cannot run until the Content Type is added to a list or library.
The elements of a list content type include the columns of metadata that are associated with the content type and workflows that can run on items of that content type.
More information about the content type and workflow are provided in the link below:

Can't create a Content Type List Item on Visual Studio 2010

Can't create a Content
Type List Item on Visual Studio 2010

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to select the specific content type in new item form.
This is a default behavior. The "Add new item" link uses the default content type and does not display a dropdown list to change that value. This behavior is hard coded into the control and can't be changed.
Here are some similar threads for your reference:

If i create apps and publish ibooks in Apple app Store will it be available to all countries... I am from India

If i create apps and publish ibooks in Apple app Store will it be available to all countries... I am from India

You will need to do apps and books separately. Apple suggests using separate Apple IDs for them. There are far more regulations involved with books than with apps. The short answer to your question is a qualified yes, with more caveats for books than for apps.

How to create the custom method and make it available to clients:

Hello, Can any one help me with this problem ASAP??
I am trying to work on an example of "Customizing the Query and Creating an Associated Custom Method"
from http://helponline.oracle.com/jdeveloper/help/topics/jdeveloper/developing_mvc_applications/adf_pviewcustommethod.html?tp=true#method. To do that, the first task is to create the custom method and make it available to clients.
Following instructions in the helponline documentation, I completed the three steps: (1) "Specify a custom query for the View Object definition for EmployeesView", (2) "Add the custom method to the application module Java class", and (3) "Make the method available to clients".
The following is the error message I got to test the application module. Can anyone tell me what the message really means and what I should do. I am wondering if there is any mistakes in the document.
(oracle.jbo.SQLStmtException) JBO-27122: SQL error during statement preparation. Statement: SELECT Employees.EMPLOYEE_ID, Employees.FIRST_NAME, Employees.LAST_NAME, Employees.EMAIL, Employees.PHONE_NUMBER, Employees.HIRE_DATE, Employees.JOB_ID, Employees.SALARY, Employees.COMMISSION_PCT, Employees.MANAGER_ID, Employees.DEPARTMENT_ID FROM EMPLOYEES Employees WHERE Employees.SALARY > :1 and Employees.DEPARTMENT_ID = :2
----- LEVEL 1: DETAIL 0 -----
(java.sql.SQLException) ORA-01008: not all variables bound

You need to set values for the parameters in your query before you try to execute the query in the view object.
So you need to call the setBindVars method before the query.

How do I make firefox available to all users in Windows 7?

I've installed Firefox on a Windows 7 computer. It is only available for the user who was logged in at the time. Is there a way to make it available to all users on that computer, or do I have to run the installer under each login?

''ricmcdav [[#question-1045158|said]]''

I have already installed firefox on about 15 pc's. Just realized it is user specific. Any way change it to all users or do I have to reinstall using "run as admin".

I believe you just use Firefox sync, to have the profiles mimic each other. Here is a link (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-set-up-firefox-sync).

How can I know about the latest updates / versions which when available for all the CC products, without having to install and check it with the Desktoip Creative Cloud Application ?

How can I know about the latest updates / versions which when available for all the CC products, without having to install and check it with the Desktoip Creative Cloud Application ?

Thanks for looking into this Jeff!
I work with an Inventory module software and is responsible for software detection across several computers. Once an updated version comes up, I update our database with latest software details to get it detected if installed on any machines.
The problem tracking updates with Desktop Creative Cloud Software are;
1)We have to have it installed with the CC applications in-order to get the notification of the latest updates and have to check everyday.
2)Only relates to the latest updates, so in-between we may miss a prior update unknowingly.Hence, the remote machines having those updates may not get detected with the software version update which would create problem in reporting.
3)For all CC products, there is no base or previous updates available for installation if we miss one.
I went through the Adobe Products Update pages [Product updates] which holds good when it comes to Acrobat and Reader software which I follow to track down any newer updates but this is inconsistent when it comes to CC products like in After Effects CC, Dreamweaver CC etc...
So overall to be very specific, is there any one channel I can follow to get the notifications only for the updates on CC products and then may be I can rely on Desktop Creative Cloud for installation if not available anywhere like in product update pages of Adobe ?

Subrat

Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email? So that the user can print it out.

Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email?
I'm making the book for children and there is one chapter providing coloring pages. So I wish to attach pdf files that allow users to download it at the end of chapter so that they can print it out. Been searching through discussion, I've found some advice about taking screen snapshot page-by-page > then send the pics from photo album to email. However, I'm wondering if there's a way that make the process easier.

Warehouse that PDF on your own server, then link to it from your book.
