Managing a set of documents that require approval, for each project stage

Good day to all,
I am new to SharePoint but I have dived in head first due to my job.
The users I am dealing with need a solution where they can upload a specific set of named document types (example: project charter, site plan, schedule, costing approval, designs) but all documents will be scanned to PDF before being uploaded. Every stage
will have its own set of documents with the same named document types. Each document has to be checked and the approved.
I know I can use a workflow for the check and approve part.
What I don't know is how to create a "blank" document set for uploading PDF files. In other words, I envisioned that I would have a document set of sorts where I can enter common information such as the Project Number, and the Project stage, and
then I would have multiple upload fields that are named by the types above (project charter, site plan, etc.) so that the users will know exactly what documents are needed to complete the document set.
Can anyone assist me in find a solution?
Thanks and best regards.

Hello,
One thing to note is that the document set content type in SharePoint is analogous to a folder; you don't specify upload fields on the document set, but users can upload any number of documents to the set once it is created. You can have fields of information
on the document set, and different fields of information on the documents within the set.
With that in mind, the best way to accomplish what you're looking for may be to have columns on the document set that indicate which required documents have been uploaded.
Document Set content type columns:
Project Number (text)
Project Stage (choice)
Project Charter Complete (yes/no)
Site Plan Complete (yes/no)
Schedule Complete (yes/no)
Costing Approval Complete (yes/no)
Designs Complete(yes/no)
Document content type columns:
Document type (choice)
It can either be a manual step so that when a user uploads a document, they then mark the corresponding yes/no checkbox, or it could be automated with a workflow.

  • Tasks that require ROOT for RAC DBA

    Our Networking Team and Applications Team are going through some growing pains. We are trying to resolve what permissions should be given to a RAC DBA. Our RAC DBA is responsible for Oracle Clusterware, Oracle Automatic Storage
    Management and Oracle RDBMS software. The OS, Server and Storage Subsystem are the responsibility of the System Administrator. We have the following Environment:
    Production and Test (RAC)
    Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 update 2
    Oracle Clusterware 11.2.0.2 -- Grid Infrastructure
    Oracle ASM 11.2.0.2
    Oracle Database 11.2.0.2 EE
    Development (Single Instance)
    Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 update 2
    Oracle ASM 11.2.0.2 -- Grid Infrastructure
    Oracle Database 11.2.0.2 EE
    As the RAC DBA, I have identified the following areas that require ROOT for RAC and Single Instance DB's; however, I understand there may be more:
    diagcollection.pl
    - diagnostic tool for Oracle Clusterware and may be requested by Oracle Support
    ocrconfig
    - to repair ocr configuration issue (add, replace and remove requires root)
    srvctl modify
    - required root to change ip address
    tar
    - TAR Grid Infrastructure Directory structure preserving files with ROOT ownership
    cluvfy
    - cluvfy fix it scripts need to run as ROOT
    - some cluvfy commands under 11gr1 would only run properly for -post cfs check as ROOT in our last installation
    ASM Libraries
    - ROOT required to install and configure ASM libraries
    fdisk - l
    - this is used to see disks attached which is relevant when ASM disks are not mounted
    /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm
    - oracleasm loading configuration file
    /usr/sbin/oracleasm
    - to make disks available to ASMLIB (scandisks etc.)
    /usr/sbin/asmtool
    - asm config tool due to bug
    asm cluster file system
    - some commands require ROOT (mounting etc.)
    - acfsutil
    /var/log/messages
    - loading errors ohas and oracleasm would be logged here
    cvuqdisk
    - needs to be loaded for new install
    root.sh
    - script needed to run at install, upgrades and patching
    oraInstRoot.sh
    - script needed to run at install
    rootupgrade.sh
    - upgrade script
    roothas.pl
    - upgrade script
    ocrcheck
    - check for ocr corruption
    - corrupt check portion requires ROOT
    - oracle local registry
    Grid Infrstructure
    - .runInstaller from Grid Infrastructure
    - includes upgrades
    asm configuration assistant (asmca)
    - configuration of asm diskgroups
    - vol mgr for asm disks
    ocrconfig
    - ocr configuration tool
    - ocr import
    - ocr export
    - oracle local registry
    ocrdump
    - used to check ocr backup file
    - oracle local registry
    opatch
    - patching grid control requires ROOT
    crsctl
    - Startup and Shutdown Oracle Clusterware, Oracle ASM and Database/Instance
    - restore voting disk
    - restore ocr
    - set log for dynamic debugging
    - check install periodically
    srvctl
    - modify nodeapps (ex. ip address change)
    - add filesystem (acfs)
    What other items would a RAC DBA need to have ROOT access for?

    I'd like to say at the outset that this is a scenario and I am NOT in anyway choosing who does what. A simple -- not so simple -- discussion of roles and responsibilities and associated privileges. If you say that the System Administrator is managing the Grid Infrastructure then this would include all Clusterware and Storage Management (ASM) activities. The System Administrator would manage the OCR and Voting Disks, backups, integrity checks etc. The DBA would then only be responsible for adding the storage within the database itself like assigning tablespaces that reference ASM Disk Groups. This doesn't mean that the DBA can't see the ASM information in the database. The major challenge seems to give your DBA access to the OS, networking and storage tools to preliminarily investigate what they believe to be a OS, networking or storage issue. Without this crossover, your System Administrator may be doing work that is unnecessary. A DBA should have clear understandings of what performance the storage system, cpu, memory and networking should be providing and access to the tools that allow them to understand what side of the fence an issue resides.
    There seem to be choices for an organization.
    1) Is there a position called RAC DBA or is the RAC portion managed by the System Administrator.
    2) If a RAC DBA exists then what should the System Administrator be responsible for
    3) What access is need for an existing RAC DBA?
    4) How will access privileges be given to the RAC DBA?
    5) other considerations regarding security?
    I agree that there needs to be crossover regarding handling workload and issues. The agreements on roles and responsibilities shouldn't stop the crossover but they should help in understanding who is ultimately responsible for certain areas of the system and application.
    If this isn't happening at organizations then how is it handled? or not handled?

  • Approval for each phase in task

    Hi Everyone
    I am using task list to create Projects. I have field named - "Phases" with values of Planning, Monitoring, Executing, Closing.
    I want to have approval for each phase from approver. Need suggestions on how do I show each approval for each phase for project? Should I create different fields for each approval? I can create approval workflow so that when user change phases it will send
    out an e-mail to approver, but how user will know which approval is for which phase while looking at project item in the list.
    Your suggestions are appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi Swetha,
    For your situation, once any phase is approved, you could send an email to notify task creator the certain phase is approved.
    If you need to let users who can access the item know the approved phases, you might add some other fields in the list. For example, add the multiple choices that has:
    Request Initiation
    Initiation approved
    Request Plan
    Planning phase approved
    Request Closure
    Closing phase approved
    And add an extra action in workflow to change the field's value per the approve status.

  • Calculate total empoyee days (as of present) that have elapsed for each month in a FY

    Hello, everyone,
    I'm running CF server connecting to an Oracle (11g)  db.
    I have a table that keeps track of projects (past, present, future) and need a way to sum the days for each project, for each month, that have happened.
    For example.
    ID   -
    Name         
    -   Start
    -   Stop 
    - Employees
    001
    Project A     
    01-Oct-14
    31-Dec-14      
    8
    002
    Project B     
    06-Feb-15
    21-Feb-15      
    9
    003
    Project C     
    30-Oct-14
    29-Nov-14      
    3
    004
    Project D     
    26-Dec-14
    16-Apr-15     
    21
    I'm trying to create an overview where the display will have the months of a Fiscal Year go across the page, indicating the number of employee days for each project that have elapsed. (NOT counting the current day).  New requirement: To make matters even more complex, there is a related table for the employees showing what dates they actually started and stopped (not every employee starts on day 1 and ends on the last day.. some start a day or two after the project start, etc.)
    I'm not wrapping my head around this, for some reason. Mental block. Any ideas?
    Someone in another forum suggested a PIVOT.  That's above my paygrade (I have never used PIVOT, don't understand how it works, etc.)
    V/r,
    ^_^

    This may be a good start. Display by Month Year the Average and Sum Dates between Start and Stop by Project.
    SELECT      CAST    (
            (CAST(MONTH(Start) AS varchar(2)) + '/01/' + CAST(YEAR(Start) AS varchar(4)))
            AS DateTime
        AS DatePeriod,
        AVG(DateDiff(day, Start, Stop)) AS AverageDaysToClose,
        SUM(DateDiff(day, Start, Stop)) AS SumTotalDaysToClose,
        Name
    FROM     Projects
    GROUP BY CAST    (
            (CAST(MONTH(Start) AS varchar(2)) + '/01/' + CAST(YEAR(Start) AS varchar(4)))
            AS DateTime
        Name
    ORDER BY DatePeriod, Name

  • How to set Logo Image for each Project Site Seperately in project server 2010.

    Hi,
    I want different logo images to be set for each Project Site of different  project Separately in Project server 2010.
    Scenario is,   we have different Project of different client , each client want different logo for their respective Projects.
    How to accomplish this task?
    Please Help me.
    Thanks

    Hello. Store the logo somewhere accessible, either in a library at the PWA site collection or on the project site, make a note of the URL to the site then navigate to the project site and depending on what logo you want to update you can click Site Actions
    > Site Settings > title and description then update the image URL there. Alternatively, on the homepage of the project site add an image web part then reference the new logo using the URL. Paul

  • How does one set options such that the entry for a successfully downloaded file automatically got removed from the download window?

    In earlier versions of Firefox, I could set options such that when a download completed successfully, the download entry was automatically removed from the download windows. I don't seem to be able to get this functionality in ver 13.0.1. In this version, i have to right click on each completed download entry, and choose "remove from List". This is very cumbersome.
    I really liked the earlier auto cleanup as it left only pending, current and failed downloads in the Download window - just the stuff I needed to pay attention to. Is there any way to set up ver 13.0.1 to make things work the way they worked so well earlier.
    A related issue may be that in the Privacy tab, the option for Browsing and Download history have been combined (were they separate earlier? - don't remember). I want to keep my browsing history but not my download history. I can still clear them individualy in the "Clear Recent History" settings, so why can't I set the control for keeping either individually? Or can I?

    The download history is part of the regular browsing history, so you would have to disable the history altogether as you've already noticed.
    * Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
    **"Remember my browsing and download history"
    Firefox manages the downloads in the Downloads folder in the Library.
    * Firefox > History > Show All History > Downloads
    Future Firefox versions won't use the current download manager (pref: browser.download.useToolkitUI; Bug 726444), but use a toolbar button with a drop down list, similar to the Bookmarks Menu button.

  • Need help Setting up Multiple Static Ip , 1 for each port of the fios router

    Need help Setting up multiple Static Ip on my fios router
    I have been trying to figure out how to set up multiple ip in my fios router.
    However I kind of managed how to set up multiple static ip However the way I want it is for each port of my router to have an external ip signed to it. ( like 4 different modem in 1 )
    Verizon gave me 5 static ip but they can not help me how to set it up.
    Have anyone here done more then one static ip on different ports? I assume that the process will be the after the second static ip.

    You want to set up Static Nat. You will not assign the IP to a port, but rather to a local machine. Figure out what machines you want your IP's to go to. Under the firewall section you will see static nat. Pick the machine you want and enter one of the IP's you were assigned.

  • IProcurement approver for each line

    When creating requisition (that could consist of many lines) one of the steps is to see mandatory approvers and add additional approvers.
    However, all approvers are for the whole requisition.
    I cannot find out, whether it is possible somehow to define that everey approver can see - which line is devised to him to approve.

    Sorry, AME is oracle approval management. It is a method to create custom rules for different scenarios with specific groups.
    THe workflow process would appear to be a more secure/easier method and you could also utilise Oracle Application Framework to allow for information on the various lines to be validated prior to submission in that only scertain people can approve certain lines. A bit complicated, but can build in the validation prior to submission.

  • Material Document (Post goods receipt) for each Tranfer order in Inbound De

    Hello All,
    We have following the below process for goods receipt.
    1. Create Purchase order.
    2. Create Inbound Delivery.
    3.Create Transfer order for each line item in  Inbound Delivery
    4. Confirm tranfers orders.
    5. Post goods receipt will automatically takes place after last Transfer order confirmation for that delivery.
    So, in the above scenario the Inventory is not available in the IM till last transfer order is confirmed.
    So, is it  possible to create a Material Document at each transfer order confirmation and post IM inventory , instead of waiting till last transfer order is confirmed.
    please advice.
    Thank you
    T Reddy .

    Hello Aktar,
    Yes With standard SAP we can post  goods receipt either before using MIGO and after using VL32N.
    In our scenario we are using Inbound Delivery.
    So , with using Inbound delivery we are posting goods receipt after  last TO confirmation.
    But In our client they may take 2 days to puyawat all the items of an Inbound Delivery.So they do not want to wait till 2 days for the IM posting.
    ie in SAP WM as soon as Inbound delivery is created it creates negative stock in 902 and once all the transfer order are confirmed and then post goods receipt takes place and 902 is cleared.
    So, we are slitting the TO at delivery line item level and creating separate TO for each line item in a delivery.
    So, I am wondering whether is there a way so as soon as first TO is confirmed WM stock updates and IM stock also should also update with same amount with a material docuement.
    ie TO by TO IM posting should take place and at Last TO post goods receipt should happen at delivery level.
    Please advice.
    Thank you
    T Reddy.
