Tabs or Collapsable view in Workflow Email
Hi all,
We have a requirement to have Tabs in mail sent by WF or to have collapsable view.
Collapsable : Click on a word or so and it opens a section . On clicking again, it should close.
We are using HTML language to send the Workflow Email.
The mail would be sent to Lotus notes and / or Outlook.
Let me know if this can be achieved.
Regards,
Siddhesh sanghvi
I Have defined Workflow in SAP. The mail is sent to SOST and then to outlook or Lotus Notes.
As you said you have defined workflow in sAP. mail is sent to SOST.
am aware that this will be possible on receiving side i.e. Lotus Notes or Outlook.
But I am not aware, how to create it in HTML or any other language for Workflow mail.
Thank you for your inputs.
Then you want to send mail again in HTML what is your excat requiremnt. You can get every thing in SAP itslef why do you want HTML.

Viewing Approval Workflow as a Customer
Viewing Approval Workflow as a Customer
I have a service where there are five service group authorizations. When viewing the submitted requisition as a customer, the following delivery process is presented:
--- Delivery Process ---
Service Group Authorization (Status = In Progress)
Delivery project for <<Service Name>> (Status = Pending)
I was not able to locate where the customer can view the approval workflow. There is just one line in the delivery process (Service Group Authorization) indicating approvals are in process. The customer does not know how many approvers or who is approving.
Emails could be sent after each approval, but this still does not address the concept of the self service by checking the status of the request online.
Is there a way to view the approval workflow as a customer?Angelo - I agree, we've also submitted it as a feature request. Cross our fingers for version 10.
Ed - Where we get a little confused about the feature request process is that, other than finding out in the monthly calls, we never seem to be able to test possible features before they get released. An old one of ours was 'released' until we tested it and worked out that our requirements did not match the functionality.
David... one suggestion, though a bit of a hack, would be to look at the TxActivity table and try and have an insert/included page in the RequisitioneEntry Summary page (requisitionentrystatus.jsp I think) that checks the DB for the given ReqEntry and graphically (or textually) builds a table to highlight the stages. Something we've had a couple of dreams about but haven't moved forward with - it would be something 'external' to the RC application but included in the presentation.
Thanks,

Weekly Reminder Workflow Email
I have created a list and have set up different views.
Is it possible to auto trigger a workflow Email every-week which shows the list items of only a particular view.
I am using SharePoint 2013 enterprise.
I have got SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013 Workflow platforms installed.
Let me know if the above is achievable.
ThanksHi Alex,
To trigger the workflow automatically every week, I recommend to create a custom timer job to start the workflow and then set the schedule of the timer job to be weekly.
Please refer to the link below for more details:

Hey all,
I use the inbuilt Mail-software on my Macbook with Lion 10.7 and I constantly overlook new messages in a thread, as I organize by conversation and usually have all my threads in 'collapsed view'. For some reason Mail seems to prefer showing the 'first', i.e. the earliest unread message as the one message that I see in collapsed. If there are newer messages already in the thread, I don't see them, unless I un-collapse the thread. I find this really unintuitive and annoying, my inbox seems far more static than it really is.
Is there any way to change this and have Mail show me the most recent unread message as the message I see in collapsed view?
I appreciate any advice.
Thanks, Carl
PS: BTW, I have the same problem on my iPhone, double props to you if you can solve it for both Mail and iPhone!Mail

EPM Workflow Email Notifications
I have inherited an EPM implementation that has EPM Workflow Email Notifications. The email text is not very informative and I want to customize this text to something more meaningful. I have been told this cannot be done, but find this very hard to believe.
Does anyone know if this can be done? Many thanks, in advance.Hi,
I am assuming these email notifications are sent when the project moves between workflow stages, approval etc.? The short answer is: yes, the text of the email notifications can be updated. However, it depends on how your workflows have been built, which
tools have been used (e.g. SharePoint Designer, Visual Studio, 3rd party tool etc.) and the project server version - 2010/2013.
If you are using project server 2013, check if the workflows have been built using SharePoint Designed (open the PWA in SharePoint designer and check the site workflows)
Hope this helps

I've used the method within the SharePoint designer to add a link to the workflow context current item URL, but when the current item status changes then obviously this link will no longer work.
How can I change this link so that it will always open the item, even if someone has changed it within the list, before I clink on the link?
This is an important one as over 300 people will use the list and many of these will be emails about items on the list will be in different time zones. I don't want to have lots of mails from people saying "this list doesn't work" as it's
critical they keep using it.
Please help.
P.S. I don't know if the <href> method will work, so if someone can confirm to me then that would be great.Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that add a link to an item within a workflow email.
I’ m not very clear about the status you said. Please descript more detail which URL do you want to display.
Per my knowedge, you can display the following url in your email body:
[%Workflow Context: Current Item URL%]
[%Workflow Context: Current Site URL%]
[%Workflow Context: Workflow Status URL%]
[%Current Item: Encoded Absolute URL%]
Please start the workflow automatically when an item is changed and changed.
No matter how you edit the item or update the approve status, the URLs remains the same.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best Regards,

I used to be able to view my Yahoo emails in Firefox. Now I can't. What do I need to do?
I have a new computer with Windows 7 and I usually use Firefox as by browser. Recently, I found that when I checked my Yahoo emails in Firefox that I would get a blank screen with no email content showing. However, when I use Internet Explorer and open the same email message, I can view the contact. I'm assuming this changed after an automatic update. Do you have any idea what I need to do to be able to view my Yahoo emails in Firefox?
I tried running Firefox in Safemode and still have the problem. I cannot view my emails.

How to create and use tabs for WD views
Hi,
I have created two views. A button click from onw view leads to the second view and vice versa.
I would like to add tabs to the two views, in a way that when pressing the button on the first view - the second one will open, and the tabs of both views will be seen, in a way that will enable me to navigate between the views using the tabs.
Is this possible to do? or must I implement one view with a tab strips? (whcih means - rewriting the secod view into the first...)
Thanks,
Oren.Hi
There is no need to use inbound outbound plugs and navigation links when you use Tab Strip
You have a tab strip control in which you inserted two tabs
each tab contains transparent container which intern contains ViewContainerUIElement, so your Outline looks like this
TabStrip[TabStrip - Child]
--Tab[Tab - Child]
Tab_Content[TransparentContainer - Child]
viewContainerUIElement[ViewContainerUIElement - Child ]
Tab_header
--Tab1[Tab - Child]
Tab1_Content[TransaparentContainer - Child]
viewContainerUIElement[ViewContainerUIElement - Child]
Tab1_header
So you have two ViewContainerUIElements in Two Tabs, you need not write any code to navigate if you select second tab second view is displayed and if you select first tab first view is displayed.

How to include time in [Today] in workflow email variable
I want to add the date/time that an item was added to a library in the email body of a workflow email. I created a variable and set the date value to Current date. When the email comes though the date is correct, but the time is 12:00:00 a.m. Why is that, and is there a way to get the time in the date/time stamp?
Hi,
This is one drawback in SharePoint. Whenever you write a field of type "Date and Time" in the workflow email, it will always show the time 12:00:00 AM no matter if you have selected "Date Only" option also. This not only happens in SharePoint Designer's "Send an Email" activity but also happens in Visual studio workflow. There is no inbuilt solution for this and if you are using SharePoint Designer then you cannot get rid of this.
I was using Visual studio workflows and in order to remove this "12:00:00" part from date, i followed some logic. First i converted my date to a string variable and then used "Trim()" function to trim the "12:00:00 AM" part. Like this i made this working.

Change display name of workflow email address in sharepoint 2010
Hi
How I can change display name of workflow email address in sharepoint 2010. I want to configure display name (from address)of email
for each site collection separately.for example I want to change "software unit"
in below pic to another name for my software unit site collection.
How I can do this?
Thanx.Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to change display name of workflow email address in sharepoint 2010.
In my environment, if I assign a task to a user, the email is as below:
The “test” is the site name, the [email protected] is the “From” user.
Do you want to change the “From” field in the workflow?
If so, you can have a look at the "Send email extended" custom SPD workflow activity (http://www.codeplex.com/SPDActivities
) which allow you to specify the sender.
Here are some similar threads for your reference:

Formatting the mail content in the workflow email
Hi,
In a workflow i am displaying a currency value.I want to format the currency value in the output. For eg: currently in the workflow email a value is displayed as 20000.0000 but i want it to display as 20,000.00 .
I have written the code in the method of the business object where i fetch this value such that the value is changed to the required format and is placed in the container element. The value of this container element is then displyed in the mail body.
I checked and the value does change to the required format and it is placed in the container element also in the required format(i.e 20,000.00) But only in the email output the formatting is lost and it is displayed in the original format(i.e 20000.0000).
Is there any other way to format the output of the currency field. I tried changing the data type to a character string but then the comma does not appear on the output.
Thanks!
Regards
ArchanaHi,
amount = 20000.0000
mail_amount is the variable that you'll use in mail body
p_curr is the currency you'll use.
WRITE amount TO mail_amount CURRENCY p_curr RIGHT-JUSTIFIED. -
8830 phone from Alltel. When I read an email message that contains an image, all I see is the text of the link to the image and not the image itself. Is there a setting I can change that will let me view images in emails?
Thanks,
PeterThis depends on two factors. One your device OS need to be 4.5 of higher and second your carrier need to have BIS 2.5 (which can be considered done by now). If you don't have OS 4.5 of higher then consider upgrading your device OS version.

Cannot view images in emails on Safari or Firefox
I cannot view images in emails on multiple accounts from different sites (Gmail, AOL Mail, Hotmail) on Safari and Firefox on my Macbook. When I click "Show Content" on the emails to unblock the spam protection, either all of the images don't show up and instead I get the "?" boxes or only some of the images show up. Can anyone help me out? I have an important email I need to print out but need to see all the images before doing so (plus, it's just plain annoying). Thanks.
I have the same problem. Since a while I can no longer view images in html emails even though it was set to do so in the prefs. I am considering ditching the plist file but am concerned that I will lose more valuable info (like account passwords and such). What does the pref file (plist) hold?

MS InfoPath 2010 form with RTF (Rich Text Fields)
MS SharePoint 2010 Custom Library
MS SharePoint 2010 Designer Workflow Send Email
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-designer-help/send-e-mail-in-a-workflow-HA010239042.aspx
https://www.nothingbutsharepoint.com/sites/eusp/pages/creating-html-emails-with-spd-workflows.aspx
Hi all of the above work, our question is how to control the RTF (Rich Text Field) look up values to the InfoPath 2010 form in the HTML email?
How to FORMAT the RTF look up value? in the HTML email
EXAMPLE
we have a InfoPath 2010 form published in the SharePoint 2010 custom list library there are 5 RTF fields (Notes1, Notes2, Notes3, Notes4, Notes5) there are other plain text fields, date fields, and other field types in the form
We use a HTML table to make the email look like the InfoPath form, so when the users fill out the form and they get the email notification everything looks the same.
Our problem is the EXTRA LINE SPACE in the RTF look up values
We want to remove any leading spaces, and line spaces between HTML table cells
Our Workflow has the HTML in a Workflow variable, as you know it does not support remote CSS it has to be in-line style for any formatting we want all cells to have
valign="top" the email should align at the top of the cell, all field types do except the RTF look up values they make the email look bad and they contain a lot of white space.
Please test this in your enviroment
<table>
<tr><td>Title:</td><td>[%Current Item:Title%]</td><td>[%Current Item:Notes1%]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Created by:</td><td>[%Current Item:CreatedBy%]</td><td>[%Current Item:Notes2%]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Date Created:</td><td>[%Current Item:Created%]</td><td>[%Current Item:Notes3%]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Modified by:</td><td>[%Current Item:ModifiedBy%]</td><td>[%Current Item:Notes4%]</td></tr>
<tr><td>Date Modified:</td><td>[%Current Item:Modified%]</td><td>[%Current Item:Notes5%]</td></tr>
</table>

-IsaackHi IssackB,
perhaps you may try this article:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/f8fa2a11-9f74-4dd2-b277-21ce872fdcb2/can-we-add-rich-text-editor-to-the-sharepoint-designer-2010-workflow?forum=sharepointcustomizationprevious
there are some notes that perhaps you may check:
Use the same font for all the controls to ensure consistent spacing between rows.
Choose Size from the Format menu, and then choose To Fit from the menu that appears. This adjusts the size of each control, depending on the font set for the data that appears
in the control.
NOTE: The Print Preview and Output To commands use different algorithms for calculating text width; therefore, the text may occupy more or less
space in the RTF file.
Reduce the amount of blank space above and below the report controls. Any vertical
space between the controls is converted to whole lines
in the RTF file. For example, a
space of .02 inches can increase to .1667 inches in the
RTF file.
Make sure controls on the same output row are not too close to each other or overlapping. This can cause the Output To command to omit the controls or to align the columns incorrectly
in the RTF file.
Use the Align command from the Format menu to ensure that a row of controls is aligned properly on the report. If a row of controls is not aligned properly, the Output To command may place the controls
in different rows, causing extra blank
spacein the RTF file.
and please have a check there are updates for exchange 2013 and will be available with the upcoming release of CU4 for Exchange 2013, that stated the format rtf was saved instead HTML. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2862739/en-us

Using html in a workflow email
Hi.
Does anyone know if there's a way to use html in a workflow email so the the html tags are rendered and not displayed literally? I'm trying to include an a href tag so that the email just displays the hyperlink in the email and not the big long ugly url that I'm referencing. I thought maybe there was a function that would allow the html to "execute" but I cannot seem to find one.
Thanks for any help you can offer!
PamHi Taier,
For this issue, I recommend to verify the things below for troubleshooting this issue:
What are the OS used in your phone and tablet? Does this issue occur with all the phones or tablets? I recommend to check the email with another phone or tablets to narrow doen the issue scope.
What email client is used in your phone?
What HTML tags did you used in your email template?
Here is a link about some reasons about blank email in mobile for your reference:
