List item with user and/or department field linked + dynamic update of department field

Hi all,
I've the mission to create a Sharepoint 2010 list to manage our IT assets.
An asset is linked to a user or to a department. The user field is not mandatory, the department field yes.
When creating or updating an item, we should be able to choose a user (person column) and the department should be automatically populated. Or we should also be able to let the user field blank and only choose a department.
1. How can I manage this ? The user profile service is already configured, linked to the Active Directory. So user and department information is already in the User Profile.
2. Second constraint : when a user is moving to an other department, the department field should be automatically updated for all items linked to this user. Any idea ?
Thanks a lot and best regards,
Steve Roh

I think you must write some code for this functionality.
It could be a custom web part or a custom field.

  • How to create list items with multiple attachment files using rest api javascript

    In one of user form I am using javascript rest api to create a list item with multiple attachment files. So far I am able to create list item and once created uploading an attachment file. But this is two step process first create an item and then upload
    a file.
    It create an additional version of the item which is not desired. Also I am not able find a way to attach multiple files in a go. Following is the code I am using.
    createitem.executeAsync({
                    url: "/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('UserForm')/items(1)/AttachmentFiles/add(FileName='" + aFile.name + "')",
                    method: "POST",
                    contentType: "application/json;odata=verbose",
                    headers: {
                        "Accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",
                        "X-RequestDigest": $("#__REQUESTDIGEST").val()
                    binaryStringRequestBody: true,
                    body: fileContent,
                    success: fnsuccess,
                    error: fnerror
    So somehow I need to combine item attributes along with attachment files in body: param. I visited https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn531433.aspx#bk_ListItem but no success.
    Appreciate any help.

    Thanks Mahesh for the reply and post you share it was useful.
    But this does not solve the core of the issue. You are uploading attachments after creation of item and multiple files are being attached in loop. This is kind of iterative update to an existing item with attachments. This will end up creating multiple versions. 
    What I am trying to achieve is to create an item along with multiple attachments in a go. No item updates further to attach a file.
    Please suggest how this can be done in one go. SharePoint does it when one creates an item with multiple attachment.
    Thanks for your reply.

  • SharePoint Designer 2013 (2010 Platform Workflow) - How can I create a new list item with a SPECIFIC content type?

    In SharePoint 2010 I created workflows that used the 'Create list Item' Action, which then set the Content Type ID (so I could create documents of various types in a document library). 
    We just switched to the SharePoint 2013 platform, and now the drop down for Content Type ID is blank in all of the workflows that are still using the SharePoint 2010 platform.  Is there any way to create a list item with specific content
    type?  Even if I could just input a string into that field instead of using this blank drop-down.  Please help! 

    Hi Sarah,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you cannot create a new list item with a specific content type using SharePoint 2010 Platform Workflow.
    I tested the same scenario in my environment, and the Create List Item worked fine with the specific content type.
    How did you create the content type?
    Please check if the content type is added to the list/library the workflow associated with.
    Best regards.
    Thanks

  • Is it possible in iTunes 11 to get the old album list view, with covers and track listings like in 10?

    Is it possible in iTunes 11 to get the old album list view, with covers and track listings like in 10?
    If not, then to me that is a huge retrograde step

    No, the old album list view is not an option in iTunes 11...
    You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
    ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
    CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
    CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
    CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
    If you still feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • Customising a SharePoint list content type form - "Manage multiple list items with this form"

    I have designed a form for a content type on an existing SharePoint list.  When I ran the initial wizard, I selected

  • Deleting a List Item with Very Huge Amount of Versions

    A faulty workflow flooded list items with 50K+ versions on SharePoint List. Attempts to open the list item/delete/edit via SharePoint UI/PowerShell failed! Programmatic iterations to delete versions/items trys to consume complete server memory and
    fails.
    Deleting the complete list is successful, but that results in SharePoint timer jobs fail and places Lots of Block in the database, which stops SharePoint sites from loading.
    Any help please?

    SP 2010 and 2013 support a max of 50,000 versions. Accessing more than 5000 items at a time causes SQL Server to escalate from row locks to table locks, which will generally bring SharePoint to a stop. You will need to write code that can bring back subsets
    of the data, and the only approach I can think of is a CAML query. But, I can't find any examples of working with versions using CAML.
    You could just change the Throttling settings in Central Admin from the default of 5000 to 50000 and then run your code during off hours.

  • Authentification with user and password

    hello experts,
    Someone knows, what steps are necessary to carry out in XI for Authentification  with user and pasword in  SOAP adapter receiver?.
    It's necesary put something in  visual  administrator?
    thanks for all

    user/pwd need to be provided by the Soap client. You'll need to store it there and maintain whenever the pwd is changed in XI.
    As of best practices:
    - The minimum requirements here should be SSL, so that no one can get the pwd;
    - Also, as to avoid this, you could take a look at client authentication with certificates.

  • Populate list Item with a recordgroup?

    Hi Friend
    I want to populate a list Item with a "Recordgroup". Does it possible without using the add_eliment function?
    I did it through the Loop to read the item from record group. If the database changes the record does not change in my list item. because the list containing the added items which was delivered in the load time. But like Pressing F9, we can easily see the last changed data of the database.
    If possible please send me the detail code to me. Here I delivered the detail procedure which i did for that purpose.

    Hi Farhad,

    Populate_List(list_id, 'RECGRP');

  • Error when other user want to change list item with rejected status

    Hi All,
    I have list with Content Approval option.
    One of users edits one of the items, which are being rejected. After that, other user wants to edit same item. Second user doesn't see rejected changes from other users, he changes some field in this item and want to save changes.
    Unfortunately, SP shows error and doesn't save changes. Content Approval is still Rejected.
    Why SP doesn't allow other users to change this item ?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that second user get an error and can’t save changes when one user and the second user are editing the same item in a list at the same time.
    I do this test in my environment, and the result is the same as you get.
    In SharePoint, the system enables you and your colleagues to view the same item in a list at the same time.  
    However, it’s by design that the system can’t allow both you and your colleagues to save the their corresponding changes when they are editing the same item in a list at the same time whether this list enable the Content Approval option, the Content Approval
    status of the current item or not.
    If one user first click on the “Save” button to save the modified item, he can save the changes back, and all the late users will get the error and can’t save their modified item when they click on the “Save” button.

  • Display of document line items with user defined fields

    Hi all,
    I have created two user defined fields in CI_COBL structure and they are available on OBC4 screen. I maintained  optinal for entry in the screen layout. I posted one document with user defined fields and saved.
    Now the document is updated in BSEG table. I then display the document, and it display the doucment
    But when i double click on the one of the line items system gives an error that there is some problem in customising and entries missing in Table COBM.
    I checked OXK3 and see that in field information for user fields, it says entries maintained in table COBM.
    But still i couldnt display my line items in detail.
    Any solutions
    Thanks in advance

    Yes your are looking at the correct sap note.
    Things look pretty straight forward in the notes documentation.
    1)Extend the VBKRED structure with the fields you want.
    2)Populate thse values in the user exit in program DBKMVF02 in FORM routine USER_EXIT_FUELLEN_XVBKRED.
    For extending a standard structure you need to create a zstructuree in se11 first and then append it to the standard structure.
    In your case you need to  extend VBKRED_EX1 structure rather than VBKRED.
