Task Pending Changing Email to Current Task:Assigned To

I have followed the directions to modify the approval email users get to approve a request I have built a workflow for.  But, when I try to publish it in Designer, I get the following error.
Workflow from update required
The form *.xsn has been customized using InfoPath and may no longer be compatible with this workflow due to field changes.  To continue using the existing form, you must first update it using Infopath.  If you no longer wish to keep your customization,
you can delete the form and a new one will be generated when the workflow is published.
I'm not sure what to do here?  I can't find the *.xsn file it is talking about.
Any ideas?

is there any permanent solution for this case ? I'm having similar issue.

  • Task Assignment to Ggroup - Group Members Not Getting Email

    I have a process with an approval activity with initial user selection set to a group rather than a specific user. I want all selected users to receive an email notification that a new task awaits them. When I assign to a specific user, the custom email template is sent to the user. When I assign to a group, the group members don't get the task assignment email.
    How do I change that so that group members will receive email notification of task assignment?
    Thanks in advance!
    Eric

    One possible solution:
    You can use our Group Lookup component to get a comma-separated list of the emails of the members of the group. Then, in the step before the User>assignTask step, send the group an email. The only problem is that you won't be able to embed a link directly to the task, because the task doesn't exist yet.

  • 1 Email shows all tasks assigned to team member

    Hi,
    Project Server 2013, (not using timesheets)
    Can any ways I can accumulate all the 10 tasks assigned to user xyz,
    and send him 1 email containing all tasks info to the users.
    2nd- Can I send a email to every users- with their Pending tasks of last week-in 1 email.
    Thanks

    I would first decide if that is worthwhile. My experience is that very quickly canned emails like that get treated as spam and sent straight to the bin.
    It is useful info, but when thrown at people, it is rarely received well!

  • Is this normal? "There are currently no approval tasks assigned to you."

    Our site owners encounter the following situation:
     - We are using sites based on "Publishing site with workflow" template.
     - We have used Owners (Permission Level=Full Control) for site managers  and Visitors (Permission Level=Read) for everyone on domain. We also did not add usernames directly, but instead used an AD group (which was added to the SharePoint Owners group).
     - There is currently no users in Approvers (Permission Level=Approve) group.
    In this situation when someone from Owners grope creates a page and clicks Submit, he sees Approve and Reject buttons. However he is not able to Approve either Reject and gets "There are currently no approval tasks assigned to you".
    I have added the AD group we have used for Owners to Approvers group, the site manages still were not able to Approve (with same error message).
    The situation finally got fixed after I have added a user directly with his username to the SP Approvers group. Adding any user directly with his/her username fixes this partially: then the task is indeed created, but someone from Owner group (that was not
    in Approvers group when task was created) still can not approve by clicking on Approve button, but he can take over the Task from Task List and then approve...
    To my knowledge all this happened because there was indeed no approval task created (that is what actually error indicates). But still I am little bit confused about 2 things:
     - Why someone with Full Control permission can not approve/reject a page (in the end that is just an item from the list with a workflow activated on it)
     - Why there were no task created (I would expect that if there is no one in Approvers group, the tasks would be created for other users with Approve permissions, for example through Full Control right; also situation when there was an AD group is strange,
    why not to create a task assigned to that AD group).
    Just wondering about other thoughts on this behaviour.
    Thanks in advance!
    Tofig

    Hi Tofig,
    As you rightly said, this behaviour is by design. 
    As far as I understand, the owners need not be given the approver permission considering them to be mostly from technical background.  They may not necessarily be good at content authoring and design and keeping them away from the approver group may
    avoid any language related goof-ups (punctuations, grammatical errors etc.)
    On the other hand, if they are good at content authoring, the site owners can be included in the Approver group, to avoid getting this message.  This message also goes away once any of the user under Approver group, approves the changes.
    Cheers :)

  • My Tasks View in my custom task list fails to display the tasks assigned to me (that is the currently logged in user)

    Hi
    I am new to sharepoint 2010.
    I created a custom task list, where I  have many tasks assigned to users (I had tasks assigned to me as well). I created a view as "My tasks "and having a filter as Assigned To is equal to [Me]. When I do that my view fails to show the
    tasks assigned to me. This happens same with the Sharepoints 'My Tasks' view as well. I tested by creating some test tasks under my name and when I selected 'My Tasks' view no tasks are getting displayed.
    Please help.
    Thanks,
    Gokulkumar.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to display the tasks assigned the current logged in user.
    In my environment, if I used the System Account, My Task view didn’t display any tasks.
    However , if I used other users except the System Account, My Task view could display current user tasks correctly.
    I recommend to use other accounts except System Account to log in site. Then everything will work well.
    Thank you for your understanding.

  • Reminder email notification and task assignment notification from humantask

    Hi All ,
    We have developed a 3 level approval SOA composite which sends the 1st level approval to a Manager and once Manager approves the request, the approval task is assigned to a 2nd level approver role(Group) for approval and after the approval from 2nd level approver group , the approval task is assigned to a 3rd level approver group .
    After the request is submitted and the task is assigned to Manager for approval. Manager receives a task assignment notification (defined in the notification tab of the .task) and a reminder notification is fired after X hours of the task assignment. The issue is, the assignment notification and reminder notification are same, is it possible to send different notification on task assignment and a different notification on reminder.
    Appreciate your help on this !
    Thanks
    suren

    The default email solutions in planning are using workflow or task lists, though the task lists are based on due dates.
    If you wanted a solution where an email is sent out when a task list is complete, then one route could be to have a business rule attached to a task list and then the business rule uses a custom CDF to send out email notication.
    If you are interested in sending emails from business rules then I did write a blog on the subject a while back.
    Cheers

  • CProject 4.0 Task Assignment/ Scheduling Changes

    Hi All,
    My Question is about Task Assignment with the Role Functionality,
    Scenario: I have created a Task A with validity Period 08/1/07 - 08/31/07
    and than created a  Role A with validity Period 08/1/07 - 08/31/07, and than hard booked a  resource (Bob) with validity 08/1/07 - 08/31/07 {30 hrs} to the Role A,
    Now as a part of Task Assignment I have linked the Role A to the Task A.
    Question 1) If the Project Manager now changes the Task A validity Period 08/1/07 - 10/31/07,  and does the scheduling in the project ,Is there any way to automatically shift the dates of Role A to 08/01/07 - 10/31/07 and than the Resource to 08/01/07 - 10/31/07,
    Question 2) Is there any Mass tool option to change Dates other than the Table view
    Hope I made my questions 2 clear,
    Thanks

    Thanks Shiv for the response,
    You are right, I change Task dates by using the Graphical view, but it will not change the Role Dates, assigned to the Task, as they both are not tied together,
    I wanted to know if there is anyway, i can shift theRoles dates using the Task Date Shifting, other than coding
    Thanks

  • Avoid email on task assignment

    I do NOT want an email to be sent when a task is created and assigned. Is it possible to do so from SPD using 2013 WFM?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to avoid email on task assignment
    It is impossible to prevent sending email on task assignment.
    By design in SharePoint, when you create a task in the workflow, it wll send an email to the Assigned To.
    Here is a similar thread for your reference:

  • Need Help of Sending Email Notification when new task assigned

    Hi all,
    How can we send a email alert notification for existing lead or new lead, when a new Task is assigned to particular person. Here in my requirement daily n number of tasks assigned to executives. So how can i send the same.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Ratan

    Hi Ratan,
    It is not clear from your question whether you are trying to trigger the email notification for the task or the lead, but it doesn't matter. You'll need to write a WF for the Lead/Task and trigger it when a new record is created and then in actions select the email notification.
    Best of luck

  • Task Assignment Notifications

    I have a LiveCycle implementation which currently hosts one workflow. We have the "Send an email to the user for new task assignments" check box selected and have specified an email subject and message within the "Task Assignments" section of the "Email Settings" within the LiveCycle administrator. The problem is that now we wish to add another workflow which would require a different email notification on task assignment. My question is how we can make the task assignment notifications process specific? Unfortunately I don't see any property in the Assign Task workflow item in which I can specifiy a notification message - so I appear to only have this one system wide notification message which, as I mentioned above, has already been tailored for one workflow.

    Hi Jeff,
    In Livecycle ES, the product only provides standard e-mail message templates that can be configured using the LiveCycle Admin Console
    for task assignment and reminders.
    In LiveCycle ES Update 1, we have provided the ability to configure these messages on a task/process basis.
    I presume you are still running LiveCycle ES and hence you will need to upgrade to LiveCycle ES Update 1 for this functionality. There are work-arounds in LiveCycle ES leveraging task assignment events however this would require some customization.
    Thanks,

  • How to get tasks assigned to me or group in which I belong to using Search Query?

    Hello,
    I want to get the tasks assigned to me or tasks assign to me in which I belong to. I know how to get it using CAML query however I want to get it in my custom search display template using Content Search Web Part.

    Please let me know how to filter tasks assign to group in which I belong to.
    Here is query which shows tasks assign to me but not to tasks assign to my groups
    (ContentType:Task OR ContentType:RequestTaskContentType OR ContentType:DelegacyAccountingContentType) AND
    AssignedTo:{User.Name} AND
    -Status:Completed AND -Status:Closed AND Status:"Not Applicable"
    Thanks & Regards,
    Jay
    Jayesh Prajapati

    Hi Jay,
    No, you can filter tasks assign to group in which you belong to using Content Search Web Part. Because there is no Query variable for current user group in SharePoint 2013 Search Query. You can have a look at the article:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-in/library/jj683123.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
    For a workaround, you can use the My Tasks web part outside of MySites:

  • OIM - Task Assignment Adapter - How to get the object instance key?

    Hello experts,
    I'm trying to use a task assignment adapter to assign an approval task dynamically. Basically, the user can request a resource like "CustomApp Profiles" and we create an object form to let them choose the profile that he needs. Each profile has an owner, which is populate in a Lookup (Owner is the code and Profile is the decode).
    So, in the approval task, I need to get the profile selected by user in the object form and search into the lookup who is the owner of that profile. But I don't know how can I get the object instance key using the parameters that can be mapped to a task assignment adapter.
    Looking into the OIM documents, I believe that the easier way is using the request key, because the REQ_KEY is a foreign key in OBI table.
    Did anyone knows how can I get the object instance key using the request key? Can I use some API or should I execute a SQL statement directly in OIM database?
    Best Regards,
    Nitto

    To retry a task that is in a rejected state, you use the SCH_KEY which is the task key.  In OIM, all rejected tasks are listed in the OTI table.  It contains all the important information about a rejected or pending task.
    You can use the APIs found in the tcProvisioningOperationsIntf class to retrieve open tasks.

  • Query for tasks assigned individually to all members of a user group

    I am looking for a query that will allow me to create a list view that will show all tasks assigned to the current user (in the Assigned To field), as well as to other members of the user group that the current user belongs to. The scenario is that we want
    a student to see tasks assigned to them, as well as to other students in the class. Each class is its own user group. I have seen a lot of examples where the filter shows tasks assigned to the current user and the current users group - that is NOT what I am
    looking for.
    For example - Todd (me), Fred and John are members of one user group. When I look at this class view, I should see tasks assigned to me, as well as those assigned directly to Fred and John.
    Does anyone have a CAML query for this? I am thinking it would need to include the SPGroup element. Thanks!

    Hi William,
    I've tried this, but it isn't working for me. Should I chnge the Smart Group, to an ordinary one?
    Thanks
