Pass data between InfoPath forms in SharePoint

Hello!
Maybe someone has ideas about the next issue: how to make pass data between InfoPath forms in SharePoint, like it is shown in a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nGl-Se2cOQ
I've read similar topics, but still can't find solution.
Thank you.

When you go to modify the submit connection, you can specify whether or not to overwrite, as well as a default title value. If you use the now() function in the title, it should never have the same name.

How to have Infopath form use Sharepoint Domain credentials

I have built a for in infopath which is published to a library on Sharepoint 2013. This form is filled out by certain users and when its completed it gets moved into a subfolder. We then provide a link to a client who has a domain account with restricted
access to just this folder of sharepoint. They can view this form and any others we put in this folder.
The form has 2 views. The first is the view our staff sees when filling it out. There are some hidden sections in there for us that the client does not need to see. So there is a second view which is read only and I have taken away the option for them to
switch views so they can't go back to our internal view.
What I would like to happen is that the form can somehow detect by the domain login info from sharepoint, what user is opening the form and switch views based on that. What I can't figure out how to do it to have the form pull domain credentials from the
sharepoint site and use those a a variable when opening the form to set the view.
I believe I am on the right path what trying to setup a data connection but I am just missing something. I found this great guide http://www.pointgowin.com/seethepoint/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=55 but now when I open the form I get a warning stating "You
do not have permissions to access a SharePoint list that contains data required for this form to function correctly." Also I still can't seem to pull the username.
Can someone help me out? Point me in the right direction? Thanks.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to have Infopath form use Sharepoint Domain credentials.
When you use Claims-based authentication, your user name is prefaced by “0#.w|”. So for example, if your user name is SuesDomain\jdoe then your Claims-based user token will be, without
the quotes: “0#.w|SuesDomain\jdoe”
InfoPath can’t handle that, or more specifically, the UserProfile.asmx method GetUserProfileByName method can’t handle that. InfoPath tries to pass in your Claims-based user token instead
of your domain\User Name.
You have an authentication problem where the currently logged in user is not allowed to hit the web service, so you get an Access Denied 401 authentication error
To resolve the issue, you can refer to the great blog:
SharePoint 2013, InfoPath and Claims – GetUserProfileByName

How to pass Parameters between two forms

im trying to do this but i could not find any way for this.
can any one help me how can i pass parameters between two forms
in forms4.5. any help will be appreciated
thanks.

Global variables can be used, but you can do what the online help
says ...
Parameters are passed to called forms by means of a parameter
list. A parameter list is a named programmatic construct that is
simply a list of parameter names (called keys) and their values.
You can pass parameter values to forms invoked by the built-in
subprograms CALL_FORM, OPEN_FORM, and NEW_FORM. In addition, you
can pass parameter values to other Oracle tools with the
RUN_PRODUCT procedure.
A parameter you include in a parameter list can be either a text
parameter or a data parameter. The parameter type determines how
its value is interpreted.
Text Parameters The value of a text parameter being passed to a
called product is a CHAR string that can represent the following:
n a user-defined form parameter defined in a form invoked
by the CALL_FORM, OPEN_FORM, or NEW_FORM built-in subprograms
n a command line or user-defined parameter for a product
invoked with the RUN_PRODUCT built-in subprogram
Data Parameters The value of a data parameter being passed to a
called product is always the name of a record group defined in
the current form. (A record group is a data structure that
stores records derived from a query or through programmatic
assignment.) Data parameters are used to pass data to products
invoked with the RUN_PRODUCT built-in subprogram. You cannot
pass data parameters to forms.
The following table shows the structure of a parameter list that
contains four parameters:
Key Paramtype Value
CITY Text_Parameter 'BOGOTA'
CATEGORY Text_Parameter 'EXPORTS'
MULTIPLIER Text_Parameter '.0275'
NEW_DATA Data_Parameter 'RECORD_GROUP8'

How to migrate sharepoint 2010 infopath form to sharepoint online.

how to migrate SharePoint 2010 infopath form to SharePoint online.

Hi Partha,
You use powershell script to migrate infopath forms from SP 2010 to SP Online. But you need to be careful about external connections used in infopath forms(web service connections etc.) because they might required to be changed. So, for data connections,
use of Data Connection Library is a preferable way or you can write a powershell script to update the data connections also.
You can find the sample script from the below url:

Cannot view InfoPath Form on SHarePoint 2013 since I removed SkyDrive for Business and installed OneDrive For Business

I removed SkyDrive for Business and installed OneDrive for Business on my laptop. After that, I had problems opening a Word and Excel document in a SharePoint site (SP2013). After installing Service Pack2 from Office2010, this problem is solved.
But I still have the same problem with InfoPath. Whenever I click an InfoPath form (I have InfoPath 2010 on my laptop),...
... I get the error "cannot display web page".
When I change the URL
ms-infopath:ofe|u|http://intranet.water-link.be/samenwerken/awwit/Autorisaties/Gebruikersbeheer/2015-02-25%20Aanvraag%20gebruikersbeheer%20voor%20Stephanie%20Geeraerts.xml

I can open the InfoPath form and read it.
Any ideas about how to fix this ? I already tried to restore the Office 2010 via Control Panel - Install Programs but without any success...

Hi Gert,
As I understand, you can’t open InfoPath form in SharePoint 2013 unless you change the URL without “ms-infopath:ofe|u|”.
There are some reasons which maybe cause this issue, and you can try to do things below:
Access CA -> General Application Settings -> Configure InfoPath Form Service -> Check the two options in User Browser-enabled Form Templates.
Go into the registry by typing regedit from the Run line and rename the SharePoint.OpenDocuments.5 key (ex. SharePoint.OpenDocuments.5.old) under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.
In library settings, click "relink documents to this library".

Infopath form for sharepoint 2013 lags when searching for person or group.

Dear all,
After implementing a infopath form on sharepoint, the search for person or group column lags when I search for someone the second time. (The first time won't lag). Is there a fix to this? And is there a way to modify the search for person or group function
to sharepoint OOTB person or group search? I think the OOTB one is a lot better. Thanks all.

How can I share data between two forms on different lists

Using a custom content type, I created two lists that I want to share the same data - one is a calendar. Our employees complete a form from the "Out of Office Request" list that has workflow functionality that sends an email to that person's
manager. If the manager approves the request, the item automatically populates the "Out of Office Calendar." The problem is that the only information from the request list that populates the calendar is the Title field and date/time fields.
I need the manager name in order to create a view for each manager.
How can I connect the other information in the request list to the calendar list. It seems to me that if the title and date fields carry over the information, there should be a way to connect the other information. I'm using Designer.
I've tried to connect the two lists' webparts with the wizard, but when I get to the page that maps the two lists, there are no column names and the "Next >" button is grayed out. This seems like the logical place to connect the two lists,
but it isn't working.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted share data between two forms on different lists.
To show external information on the calendar event, there are two methods: Calculated column, workflow. You can refer to:
A Simple Guide to Show More Information on a Calendar Event
I recommend to use workflow to achieve what you want. But you need to create a people column to display the manager.
You can create a workflow associated to the "Out of Office Request" list, add action to Start Approve Process. If the manager approves the request, you can create a item in the calendar, and then update the people column and the title column.
Then the calendar will display the Title, date/time and the manager.
To create a view for each manager, you need to modify the Filter. You can use the people column is equal to the manager name or the Title contains the manager name.
Thank you for your understanding.

How can I pass data from a form guide to another form in a business process

How do we pass data from a form guide to another form(not necessarily a guide) without having to open the form. For example we have a small form guide to capture the contract id so we can then get data from contracts table to present to the user in a form. We want the user to open the guide (either Flex guide or form guide) to enter the contract id. Upon submission we want the process to get the contract data and put it into the form that will be opened at the next step by the user without having a user interact with the form to get the data into it. In other words we need the process to get the data and populate a different form than the form guide the contract id was entered in and this new form needs to be opened in the next step by the user.

Firstly, I'm assuming that you have a Forms ES Server if you are rendering a Guide. This could be either version ES1, ES2/2.5 or ES3/ADEP
If you submit the form back to the server, you can populate a second (PDF/XDP) form with the data bound to the same schema/Data Model using Forms ES.
You referred to the next user in the chain - If you are using Process Management, this is very easy, as you define what form is used to render the data in the "Presentation & Data" section of the Assign Task activity

How to pass Data from one form to the other

Hi all
Can any one suggest me how to pass data from one form to the other form, which i zoomed from the original one?
I tried to do this by passing parameter in Event Procedure but i am getting error msg when i am opening the zoomed form.
If any one of u have any idea, give me a reply
Thank you

If you choose the second alternative you should erase these global variables after the second form is opened
You can erase the global variable using:
erase('global_var')

Best method for passing data between nested components

I have a fairly good sized Flex application (if it was
stuffed all into one file--which it used to be--it would be about
3-4k lines of code). I have since started breaking it up into
components and abstracting logic to make it easier to write,
manage, and develop.
The biggest thing that I'm running into is figuring out a way
to pass data between components. Now, I know how to write and use
custom events, so that you dispatch events up the chain of
components, but it seems like that only works one way (bottom-up).
I also know how to make public variables/functions inside the
component and then the caller can just assign that variable or call
that function.
Let's say that I have the following chain of components:
Component A
--Component B
-- -- Component C
-- -- -- Component D
What is the best way to pass data between A and D (in both
directions)?
If I use an event to pass from D to A, it seems as though I
have to write event code in each of the components and do the
bubbling up manually. What I'm really stuck on though, is how to
get data from A to D.
I have a remote object in Component A that goes out and gets
some data from the server, and most all of the other components all
rely on whatever was returned -- so what is the best way to be able
to "share" data between all components? I don't want to have to
pass a variable through B and C just so that D can get it, but I
also don't want to make D go and request the information itself. B
and C might not need the data, so it seems stupid to have to make
it be aware of it.
Any ideas? I hope that my explanation is clear enough...
Thanks.
-Jake

Peter (or anyone else)...
To take this example to the next (albeit parallel) level, how
would you go about creating a class that will let you just
capture/dispatch local data changes? Following along my original
example (Components A-D),let's say that we have this component
architecture:
Component A
--Component B
-- -- Component C
-- -- -- Component D
-- -- Component E
-- -- Comonnent F
How would we go about creating a dispatch scheme for getting
data between Component C and E/F? Maybe in Component C the user
picks a username from a combo box. That selection will drive some
changes in Component E (like triggering a new screen to appear
based on the user). There are no remote methods at play with this
example, just a simple update of a username that's all contained
within the Flex app.
I tried mimicking the technique that we used for the
RemoteObject methods, but things are a bit different this time
around because we're not making a trip to the server. I just want
to be able to register Component E to listen for an event that
would indicate that some data has changed.
Now, once again, I know that I can bubble that information up
to A and then back down to E, but that's sloppy... There has to be
a similar approach to broadcasting events across the entire
application, right?
Here's what I started to come up with so far:
[Event(name="selectUsername", type="CustomEvent")]
public class LocalData extends EventDispatcher
private static var _self:LocalData;
// Constructor
public function LocalData() {
// ?? does anything go here ??
// Returns the singleton instance of this class.
public static function getInstance():LocalData {
if( _self == null ) {
_self = new LocalData();
return _self;
// public method that can be called to dispatch the event.
public static function selectUsername(userObj:Object):void {
dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent(userObj, "selectUsername"));
Then, in the component that wants to dispatch the event, we
do this:
LocalData.selectUsername([some object]);
And in the component that wants to listen for the event:
LocalData.getInstance().addEventListener("selectUsername",
selectUsername_Result);
public function selectUsername_Result(e:CustomEvent):void {
// handle results here
The problem with this is that when I go to compile it, it
doesn't like my use of "dispatchEvent" inside that public static
method. Tells me, "Call to possibly undefined method
"dispatchEvent". Huh? Why would it be undefined?
Does it make sense with where I'm going?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Performace tuning: how to pass data between different batch job programs?

Hi everyone,
    now i have one problem about performance tuning using threading in SAP programs: split one big program into two programs - one is main program and the other is sub program. using batch jobs, we can submit multi jobs of sub program at the same time.
    does anybody know how to pass data between different batch jobs? I don't want to use temp files. can ABAP memory can implement this?
    thanks!

Wei,
Yes we can transfer the data by using
SAP Memory OR ABAP Memory.
Ex: V_count TYPE i.
V_count = 100.
LOOP AT itab.
IF v_count EQ 25.
Here For every batch job
EXPORT data TO MEMORY ID 'ABC'
   Function module
    JOB_OPEN
   JOB_SUBMIT
   JOB_CLOSE.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP .
IN your 2nd program.
INITIALIZATION.
IMPORT data FROM MEMORY IF 'ABC'.
FREE memory if .---When you free the memory you will get recent data.
Don't forget to reward if useful.
