No actions for document sets in SharePoint Designer

Hi,
I am an SharePoint Online user and I want to create a workflow that copies/moves a document set from one library to an other library/repository.
The problem is, that I don't have any actions concerning document sets in my SharePoint Designer. There should be an action "send document set to repository".
I have already activated the content organizer feature. Did I miss to activate a feature? Are actions for document sets included in SharePoint Online?
Thank you.

Do the normal move item actions not work?
The content organiser feature is slightly different. That allows you to use the Information Management policies which might be more appropriate as they let you move documents based on things like the time since last updated + 5 months.

  • Updating a title column in list that is a lookup column to document library in sharepoint designer workflow 2010

    Hi I have a requirement to create a list item in Contracts List when a document is uploaded in Contracts Vendor library.
    Contracts List will
    have  columns - Contract Name ( title column), Contract Number, Contract Start date and end date.
    Contracts Vendor library will have Contract
    Name,Contract NUmber.
    User will select the Contract Name from drop down ( this is look up column linked to Contract Name in Contract
    List).When user uploads document in Contract Vendor library then item should be created in Contract List with selected Contract Name and
    Contract number .
    Contracts and Contracts Vendor are related by look up Contract Name. Contract Name is internally a title column in
    Contracts List.
    Issue1 :
    Since Contract number is look up column, while I am creating item the Contract name is not getting updated in
    Contracts List. I have to use sharepoint designer workflow to achieve this task. Title colum or Contract Name shows no title.
    Issue 2:
    One
    more issue I am facing is that Contracts List has Section and Division cascaded drop downs when i select values from section and division
    dropdowns and save item in Contracts list the values are getting saved in Contract List.
    Could anyone suggest me how to handle this ? I am
    attaching the screenshots of the list and library structure. TRuly appreciate your help.
    Below are screenshots of the list structure

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to update a title column in list that is a lookup column to document library in sharepoint designer workflow 2010.
    I try to reproduce the issues as follows:
    Create a custom list named Contracts List, add columns: Contract Name ( title column), Contract Number(Number), Contract Start date(Data and Time) and Contract End date (Data and Time).
    Create a document library named Contracts Vendor library, add columns: Contract Name(Lookup), Contract NUmber(Lookup).
    Create a workflow associated to the Contracts Vendor library.
    Add action: Create List Item.
       5. Start the workflow automatically when an item is created.
       6. Upload a document, select the Contract Name and Contract NUmber, the workflow will be started automatically.
       7. Open the Contracts List, an item will be added with the Contract Name and Contract Number in the Contracts Vendor library.
    Thank you for your understanding.

  • Define Actions for Document Output - Activate / link std. Interactive Forms

    Hello,
    The transactions 'Actions for Document Output' help tells me the following:
    If the processing type External Communication is used for document output using SAP Interactive Forms, the following configuration needs to be done:
    SRM Document (Action Profile)      Form Name            Format
    Purchase Order (BBP_PD_PO)      BBP_PO_ADB       BBP_PO_ADB_PRN
    The interactive forms are available in our SRM system. Still up on searching the forms for f.e. the Purchase Order definition it can not be found. Only smartforms are listed. How come?
    Has the setting in transaction 'PDF-based Forms for SAP ERP' -> 'Activate PDF-Based Forms' got anything to do with this?
    Kind regards,
    Tim

    Hi Jay,
    I tried searching for it where you should link the form with the BUS object.
    Following path (PO): Cross-Application Basic Settings -> Set Output Actions and Output Format ->  Define Actions for Document Output -> Action Profile: BBP_PD_PO -> Tab: Processing Types -> Smart Forms Print -> Search for Form doesn't include the Interactive forms.
    I just realised: I need to add a new entry 'External Communication', would this entry be applicable for all communication methods? Thus fax + print + e-mail? And how did you go about setting it up, i suppose adding an 'external communication' entry next to the smartform entries in the std. SAP BBP_PO would be double (system wouldn't know which 1 to choose).
    Kind regards,
    Tim

  • Workflow for Document Set

    I am trying to develop an e-mail notification on a Document Set - problem is the workflow triggers not only on the document set, but all the documents within the set.
    I know I can't start the workflow "when a document is created" - has anyone found a solution so the workflow is only triggered when the document set is created (and not again when individual documents are uploaded)
    Cindi

    There are a couple of options that I can think of.
    Firstly you could create a Resuable Workflow that is associated with the Document Set Content Type. Although in this instance I would probably look to create a new Content Type (let's say I call it MyCustomDocumentSet) with a Parent of Document Set
    and set the Resuable Workflow to be based on MyCustomDocumentSet Content Type. Then associate the MyCustomDocumentSet with your List instead of the Document Set Content Type.
    After you have created the Workflow you would need to go back into your MyCustomDocumentSet Content Type and set the Workflow to start on When an item is created.
    The second option (perhaps not so elegant, but easy to set up and will work) is to have a normal List Workflow that fires for the Document Set and Documents within it, but have a condition to check what is being created. For example:
    If CurrentItem:ContentType not equals Document Set
    Stop the workflow and log "My Message"
    If it isn't a Document Set then the workflow will stop. However, if it is a Document Set it will continue with whatever you add to your workflow after the condition and stop workflow action.

  • How can i assign permissions to all documents inside a document set ? - SharePoint 2013

    Hi All,
         I have created some document sets and i did use a workflow to assign specific users to these document sets thinking this will cascade to files in the document set.
    But it seems users cant see the files under the document sets as they don't have permissions.
    Can i use a workflow to assign permission to all documents under the document sets? If yes will sharepoint designer do the trick.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hello,
    The documents within your document should be visible if the security is not broken on the item level. If it's normal that the permissions are broken, take a look at the link provided before
    but reading your post, I feel that you are surprise with this permissions break. You should maybe just take a look a the document creation process to see why the permissions are broken

  • Word Crashing When Discarding Checkout for Document Stored in SharePoint

    We have recently noticed an issue when we have a Word file checked out from SharePoint, if we then discard the checkout from Word, Word crashes. The error details point to an issue in wwlib.dll.
    Having done some further investigation into this it appears this only happens if the document has an attached template which contains a custom ribbon.  We use SharePoint 2013 and Word 2010, although I have tested using Word 2013 with the same results.
    This was noticed on our company templates which contain a custom ribbon tab and a number of custom buttons. I have since tested it by creating a template with a single button on a custom tab with the same results.
    Has anyone else come across this issue and and is there any way to resolve it?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Hi Daniel,
    Thanks for the response.
    The issue only happens when discarding checkout. Editing and saving a document back to SharePoint does not cause an issue. I am using a dotm template. I am not storing the template
    as a content type. When I say I created a custom tab, this was created by adding the XML to create the ribbon tab and button. I used the 'Custom UI Editor for Microsoft Office' to add this. The file created for this is called customUI14.xml and the
    XML is as follows (in the basic test template that I created):
    <customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2009/07/customui">
    <ribbon startFromScratch="false">
    <tabs>
    <tab id="customTab" label="Custom Tab">
    <group id="customGroup" label="Custom Group">
    <button id="customButton" label="Test Ribbon Button" imageMso="HappyFace" size="large" onAction="TestRibbonCrash" />
    </group>
    </tab>
    </tabs>
    </ribbon>
    </customUI>
    The code this points to is as follows:
    Sub TestRibbonCrash(ByRef Ctrl As IRibbonControl)
        MsgBox "Ribbon button working"
    End Sub
    Following your reply I have tested it by adding a custom tab and button through the GUI and the problem doesn't occur when using that method of creating the tab and button.
    I will see if I can find anything useful in the ULS logs although no correlation ID is displayed when the error happens and in my experience even with a correlation ID, 99% of the time the ULS logs don't provide any useful information.
    I've also observed that Word doesn't crash if I discard checkout when I have another document open at the same time which is based on the same template.
    I have already posted on a MS Word forum. Is there more chance of getting some help on one of the other Word forums you have suggested?
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-word/word-crashing-when-discarding-checkout-for/95565f9e-411b-4f11-b14d-d3771e2e2ba4

  • Call HTTP web service action not allowing HTTPS in SharePoint Designer 2013.

    HTTP works perfectly in browser and in workflow.
    HTTPS works perfectly in browser and hangs in workflow.
    Others having this issue have been advised to use OAuth2. OAuth2 is not an option without HTTPS, you're passing authorization tokens around in plaintext. This is not an acceptable solution.
    Please advise.

    It says HTTPS web services will have an Issue with the SharePoint Designer.

  • Set unique file name for document library in SharePoint 2013

    Hi,
    I have document library in the sharepoint 2013 with two dropdown fields-dept name,dept id.
    My requirement is to create a namiing convention for each file uploded in the document library.
    So the naming convention should be "deptname-deptid-filename-Id".
    I tried this naming convention using workflow as below-
    In this case ,first I attach the file and then it asks for dept name & id,Whwn i input these value,it shows error message as this file is modified by you at this point of time.On cancel it saves the attached file but does not save the deptname and dept
    id.
    please help if any idea or suggestion.
    Thank you.

    The only way I've ever seen this work while adding a new file is to use an Event Reciever.  Build an Event 
    Receiver that fires whenever a file is added and have the code change the name of the file from whatever the user titled it to the naming convention you are using.

  • How to apply masterpage for document library in SharePoint 2013

    Hi,
    is it possible to change the master page in library level.

    DO you mean JUST at the library level?  If so, there's no way that I know of as Master Pages are applied to Sites at a whole.  They then have Page Layouts added, which tell SharePoint where to load the content, which is where your document library
    would be.
    What do you hoping to achieve?

  • Need help to check prerequisites for Document migration to SharePoint

    Hi All,
    I would like to confirm the required prerequisites which I need to follow before migrating contents to SharePoint online so that, I can analysis everything and ensure my job without any interruption.
    Any suggestions/recommendations are highly appreciated.

    Hi  Jyotirmoy Deb,
    Last time might be,you are the one that asking about using join statement on 3 tables.
    Now what are you doing in your code. use are joining almost 18 tables.this will not work anyone, and it will slow down the processing time of the report.
    First of all analysis the report what exactly you want and then
    first read the header data as in your case you using the Sale Document Header data.
    On the basis of Header data fetch the line item data.
    Don't processes all the tables at a time using the join clause.Because it decrease the efficiency of the program.
    Reward points,if useful.

  • How we create workflow using sharepoint designer for first review the documnet than go for approve the document.

    Hi ,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to create a workflow which contains review and approval process.
    For implemening your requirement, you can create a workflow containing two steps. The first step is used to collect user information and set workflow variables, and the second step is used to verify whether the reviewer approve. If the reviewers complete
    approving, a pproval workflow is started. The whole workflow is like :

  • Document Set Creation in document library using REST API in Sharepoint 2013

    Hi,
    I want to create the document set using REST API call. Currently i am able to create the folder and able to upload the files using REST API's in the document library. Is there any way we can pass the contentype name or Id and create the document set using
    REST API call. We need to create the document set along with metadata and upload the files inside the document set.
    I need to create the document set along with meta data column values using REST API. Please let me know how we can achieve this through REST API.
    Thank you,
    Mylsamy

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to create document set along with managed metadata fields.
    The REST API does not currently support working with Managed Metadata or Taxonomy fields.
    As a workaround, we can use the JavaScript Client Object Model.
