Some users getting 2 task notifications from SPD workflow

Hi,
I have created a SPDesigner Workflow in SharePoint 2013 Ent, using the SP2010 workflow engine as it is a fairly simple process.
The odd thing is that for one particular user, when a Task is assigned, she gets 2 notification emails:
email1:   
"Task Assigned by xxx on 19/02/2014"
You do not have the required permission to view this Task
1. Request Access
2. Review you task for specific details about this request
3. Perform the specific activities required for this Task
4. Use the Open this task button to mark the task as completed.
email2:
"Task Assigned by xxx on 19/02/2014"
To complete this Task
1. Review Kxxx.pdf
2. Perform the specific activities required for this Task
3. Use the Open this task button to mark the task as completed. (If you cannot update this task, you might not have access to it. Click here to request access).
Why 2 emails??
(the permissions issue I will tackle, it is a secured site).

Thanks for your suggestion regarding the security Ramakrishnaraja.
The ongoing site re-organisation is now complete and we have resolved the security issue.
(All users need to have Read access at the site level, as there are a number of hidden lists involved in a SharePoint Designer Workflow, such as a hidden Workflows list where the .xsn workflow forms re stored).
Sadly however, it looks like the problem in the original question I posted is still happening.
ie. some users are getting 2 emails when a task is assigned.
If anyone knows why duplicate emails might be sent (only to some users!), do let me know.
Many Thanks
Ruth

    keep on getting double notification  from my default mail app, and gmail app, how do i make google my primary one? so that i dont have to get doulbe notifications  on both apps

    This is probably not the answer to all your questions, but I am sure it answers some.
    Unlike Word and InDesign, FrameMaker's anchored frames, which hold graphics, "hang" from their insertion points, typically at the end of the paragraph. An anchored frame that follows a paragraph is set to be below the line, the line being the last line in the paragraph. If you turn on View > Text Symbols, you will see a marker that indicates the point from which the anchored frame is hanging.
    If the anchored frame is taller than the available space, it is moved to the next page ALONG with that last line. If the paragraph style/tag has a widow/orphan lines number that is more than 1, then that number of lines are also moved to the next page, because the paragraph tag says to keep that many together, EVEN if there is space at the bottom of the previous page.
    So, you can set the widow/orphan lines number smaller OR as you have done put a blank line before the anchored frame, which now holds the marker for the anchored frame, and set its font size to 2 pt (the lowest FrameMaker allows) and its line height to zero. This is the standard workaround UNLESS you use the line above the anchored frame as the title/caption of a figure, which is also a typical way of dealing with FrameMaker's ways.
    To my knowledge, one cannot change the default of the checked cropped box. Maybe others know of some way to change this.
    There is no page break in FrameMaker, hence there is no symbol for it. In the paragraph designer for the paragraph, you set to Start of the paragraph to Top of page. Top of page is FrameMaker's equivalent to a page break. To "remove" a page break, set the Start of the paragraph to Anywhere.
    Since you are new to FrameMaker, I suggest reading throught the User Manual that comes with FrameMaker. You will likely find the answers to most of your questions there.
    Hope this helps,
    Van

  • Missing some value of Message Notification from WorkCenter

    Hi Expert,
    I have scenario when user create message notification from workcenter, it will be send mail automatically to the user (mail account) in status new and I have successfully create it.
    And the issue is =
    When i preview the message from the transaction (from menu action), it will display the whole message.
    But when user received the message via mail account, some value from the message is miss (not whole message will be appear)
    Could anyone help me how to solve this issue?
    Regards,
    Rhesa Syahrial

    I just used to have stalonetray running at the bottom of my screen. I made its height small enough to fit along with my conky 16px I think it was. Doesn't take up too much space.
    Since I switched to i3, I find its better to just not use trays as I can simply assign a whole workspace for skype and so I don't need any tray.

    I have apps in my notification center on for notifications (like News apps), with banner and sounds, but i never get the notification from those apps. I tried reinstalling the app and restarting the phone but all in vain

    The apps I currently have are for the i phone and i pad but i would like to see this on this computer
    On the Mac Air launch iTunes. Then connect either the iPad or iPhone.
    Select the iPad or iPhone under Devices left side of the iTunes window in the source list.
    Then select Apps from the menu on the right.
    If you don't see the apps listed there, from your iTunes menu bar (top of your screen), click Store > Authorize This Computer.
    See if that makes a difference...

  • User will receive notification from workflow?

    Dear,
    When buyer creates a new PO and needs to get approval from supervisor. Supervisor will receive an email from Oracle Workflow and the email includes the details PO information for supervisor reviewing.
    What setup I need to do?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    You have not mentioned whether supervisor will approve through e-mail or from notification link. Approval is based on Employee-Supervisor or Position Hierarchy?
    Your question : Supervisor will receive an email from Oracle Workflow and the email includes the details PO information for supervisor reviewing..
    Ans : When supervisor click on the notification link which he/she received for PO approval, he will able to see a link "Edit document" in the approval notification..Supervisor can view the PO details before approving the same. Supervisor only can view the PO from this Edit document link only when he is assigned appropriate Purchasing responsibility to his User Id. This is an oracle Bug, supervisor can't view the PO details unless PO responsibility is assigned to him.
    Prerequisite for flow of notification:
    1) Notification mailer is up and running
    2) For testing Schedule "Workflow back ground Process" with last parameter as Y,N,N, Schedule it to execute for every 1 or 2 mins.
    Hope this helps
    Kind Regards,

  • How to send email notifications from a workflow?

    I am having problems trying to get notification emails to work from a workflow. I have done the following:
    1.Checked notification to file is commented out in waveset.properties
    2.Set SMTP server and port setting in Configure > Servers > email template
    3.Set SMTP and port setting in Account creation notification template.
    4.I am then running the following workflow code in reconsiliation per user workflow:
    <Action id='0' name='Send Notification' application='com.waveset.provision.WorkflowServices'>
                          <Argument name='op' value='notify'/>
                          <Argument name='template' value='Account Creation Notification'/>
                          <Argument name='type' value='email'/>
                          <Argument name='toAddress' value='$(email)'/>
               </Action>I am currently getting an error:com.waveset.util.WavesetException: toAddress must be specified.
    Whatever I try I cannot get the email template to pick up the email address for each user from the workflow.
    If I add a valid email address into the "toAddress" in the Account Creation Notification email template, the error goes away and reconsile completes, but no email is sent.
    Could someone advise what I can look into to sort this and get it working.

    You're running into a common IDM bug. I've hit it a few times too. I'm not sure of the root cause (sometimes using notifications as you did works for me sometimes it doesn't) but there's a workflow sub-process called "Notify" that you might look into. It's got a few extra features (such as retries) that the direct provisioning class does not.
    Call it using something like the following action:
          <Activity name='Notify User'>
            <Action id='0' name='send notification' process='Notify'>
              <Argument name='template' value=Template'/>
              <Argument name="from" value="[email protected]"/>
              <Argument name='to' value='$(userView.global.email)'/>
            </Action>
            <Transition to='end'/>
          </Activity>

  • Exchange 2007: User getting meeting invitations from 3 meeting rooms

    Hi,
    Hope someone can help. I have an Exchange 2007 server with various room mailboxes.  One user is getting meeting room invitations from 3 meeting rooms. He is not a delegate on these meeting rooms, nor does he seem to have special permissions on their
    calendars. I checked a couple of persons who ARE delegates, to see if he was a delegate on them in case there was some weird looping thing going on but nothing. I also checked transport rules and there was nothing that could cause this behavior.
    Anyone have any ideas, because I don't?
    Thanks.

    Not sure that I follow this completely.  My understanding of this issue is that there are 3 or so resource mailboxes who I assume are setup to auto-process incoming meeting request.  For each received meeting request, another user is receiving
    a copy of the meeting request, even though he is not listed as a delegate nor are there any rules configured to send to this user.
    So my understanding of the question was, why is this user receiving meeting notifications for these calendars/resource mailboxes?
    But now it sounds like there is a 3rd person involved. 
    Are there any calendar folder permissions or settings specifically defined in any of these 3 locations (resource mailbox, user1, colleague)?
    Completely remove delegates from all 3 resources & apply the change.  Test to see if the problem still occurs.  If not, re-add all of the users who should be delegates and test again. If they get the message again once delegates are added,
    then one of those delegates might be the cause.
    For PublicDelegates, open ADSIEdit  and look at the Active Directory properties of each users.  These are attributes on the AD object.  Just open ADSIEDIT.msc, select the defaults in the Connect To window, go to the OU where the users
    reside, and view the properties of the users.

  • Can automation plug-in gets error notification from Photoshop ?

    Hi All,
    Suppose I open the photoshop file(.psd) and font is missing in the layer. Photoshop shows error dialog box. Can automation plug-in get any kind of notification regarding this font missing in layer ?
    I want to do some stuff if font is missing in the layer.
    Any idea/logic ?
    Thanks,
    Amar

    Hi,
    Thanks Tom for the response and idea. I can now check whether the font used in text layer is present or not by checking in font list for photoshop.
    Now I am stuck in another point: load font (saved in local folder) in the photoshop in runtime. Can we update the font list of the photoshop by automation plug-in ?
    I can get font list from descriptor using "kfontListStr", update the lists like "keyFontName", "fontPostScriptName",  "fontFamilyName" and call
    "sPSActionControl->Play(&result, eventSet, descSet, plugInDialogSilent);".
    But at the moment its returning error code and I don't really know if these are enough to update font list in photoshop.
    If this can't be done by automation plug-in then let me know some idea on how to solve loading font in photoshop in runtime.
    Thanks,
    Amar

  • Get filename only with spd workflow

    Hi
    I want to get the filename of an image located in an image library. (i.e. myimage.jpg) ising SPD workflow
    I've tried several options:
    Curent Item:Web Image URL
    Curent Item:PitureURL
    The one that comes close is:
    Curent Item:URL Path which gives:
    /sites/mySiteCollection/myWeb/PictureLib/myimage.jpg
    I actually want only the ending (myimage.jpg) is this possible?
    The reason for this is that I am moving enviornments and then the full path wont work, in addition I am creating a template and when the new template gets cretaed and the site re-named the hard wired link wont work.
    In the webpart (which is intended to read the filename) I will rebuild the url based on actual location.. I think anyway.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Here is a workaround for your reference:
    We can create a new column named "FileName", then create an event receiver to set the value to this field when the item is added. Then use this column in the Workflow directly.
