Travel Request Form in SharePoint 2010

I want to make Travel Request related site on SharePoint 2010. I have some basic plan in my mind how it will. Its like User will fill form (Travel Form) then it will go to his/Her Manager then after approval, it will go to HR department. From here onward,
complexity starts as HR will give some preference of Hotel, Flight & rest info for selection to user. Once user select that then it will again go to HR for confirmation of such info & then HR will book flights, Hotel nd rest. So kindly let me know
such kind of workflow can be made where multiple loop created with these users for follow up & selection, approval...
Can anybody will guide me how to move ahead step by step..I did a lot of search n all but didnt found what i need. Also let me know from where i can open "Workflow designer" in SharePoint Designer 2010 as some video showing this tool in SPD.

Looping in SPD workflows is tricky. To create complex workflows you can break them down into a set of simpler workflows. For looping you will typically create "workflow A" that changes a field that then triggers "workflow B". You might create a typical approval
workflow that walks through the manager approval. It changes a field that then triggers the HR workflow(s).
The Workflow Designer is displayed when you edit or create a new workflow. In the left navigation click Workflows and then in the ribbon click one of the new workflow options (List or Reusable (Content Type)).

Adobe Form Logo Edit(Modify) Problem in Travel Request Form of ESS

Dear Experts
We have the ESS working in which travel Request form has got the logo of IDES (Adobe Form) thatb come from the t-code: TRIP. My query is to remove that logo and print our company's logo on the same. After doing many effort to change that logo, I am not able to make change on that Adobe Form. Please suggest how could we achieve that?

Hi,
As per your code, you are seletcing data from BSEG table as 'SELECT * FROM BSEG'.
BSEG is a cluster table. Its better to use only selected field from this table during select query.
Other than this run your program in SE30 and check analysis for the queries taking more time.
Better to modify them, tune them and re transport the program in production.

Browser based InfoPath Forms in SharePoint 2010 performance has slowed down after SharePoint 2010 SP2

hi All,
Our Browser based Infopath forms have slowed down drastically after applying SharePoint 2010 SP2. Prior to this, we had SharePoint 2010 SP1 and the timings was around 10 seconds (single user) for the entire infopath form to be displayed which has 10-12
views and 5 data connections and 15 business rules and around 100 fields.
But now after applying sharepoint 2010 sp2, the performance has slowed down and it now takes for a single user around 50 seconds.
Refer to the link below, which we followed by applying the patch as well, but the performance is still the same very slow.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/0b673324-01c4-49f7-86cb-647aa43fefd6/infopath-browser-forms-extremely-slow-after-service-pack-2-upgrade?forum=sharepointadminprevious
We have raised a ticket with Microsoft, but there is no concrete resolution as to what component of the infopath has made the form rendering and display slow.
Can someone point me to the right resource or knowledge base where i can do a kind of debug, which tells me exactly which infopath dlls are the issue or which part of my form is taking more time. I am using AOLPageTest and Fiddler, but they do not give me
any details where exactly is the bottleneck.
Any tools that give me the details of the bottleneck.
Thanks and appreciate your help in this.
Regards
Ram
Thanks Ram

hi inderjeet,
The application has gone live and its on production, the same application is on pre-prod and UAT, system testing and integration environments.
The infopath form used to work very well on all these environments before we installed sharepoint 2010 sp2. but the moment we installed sharepoint 2010 sp2, the infopath forms have slowed down.
Microsoft has acknowledged that there is an issued with sharepoint 2010 sp2 and infopath form performance, but they are not able to provide an appropriate fix on this.
We have another environment where there is no sharepoint 2010 sp2 applied only sp1 is applied and the infopath form works very well within fraction of seconds.
So your point no. 1 and 2 and 3. does not reveal anything. Fiddler does not give any detailed component by component breakup where the time is taking more.
The form used to work very well before we applied sp2.
I want to know a tool that gives me exactly component by component grant chart kind of breakup of time taken when the infopath url is requested on the browser.
Thanks

Getting Prompt for Credentials When Opening InfoPath 2010 Form in Sharepoint 2010

I have a domain user who runs Office 2010 x32 and uses a Sharepoint 2010 site daily. Lately a specific page on that site has been randomly giving prompts for credentials when opening existing documents and creating new ones. The process can be most easily
replicated by opening the new document template in Infopath by going to Documents -> New in the ribbon bar of the SP page. Most of the time the Windows credentials for the user are passed to Infopath/Sharepoint automatically (which is normal), but on the
fourth or fifth attempt to create a new form, the prompt appears. The user can still enter the credentials and open the blank template form, but a prompt should not appear. The user is also the administrator for that page, so I'm thinking it's not a permissions
issue.
The user is running IE 9 on Windows 7 Pro x64. I have performed the following:
Reset advanced IE settings and all user cache data
Cleared cached Sharepoint credentials in Windows credential manager
Re-applied group policy for the machine using gpupdate /force
Logged in with a clean temporary profile
Logged in to another domain account using the user's Sharepoint credentials
Cleared Infopath cache
Re-installed Office 2010 x32
The problem only occurs only on this particular machine. There are no Sharepoint or authentication-related errors or warnings in the application and system event logs. There are also no error messages on-screen when the prompt appears. I also considered
the possibility of this being a performance related issue in the case that maybe Infopath was taking too long to start, causing the credential pass-through process to time out and fall back to a prompt. I ran disk cleanup, deleted some temporary files, and
checked for excessive CPU/memory load. I didn't find any issues and doing these things did not help.
I'm convinced there is another setting somewhere in Windows that is causing this. Interestingly it always happens after four or five attempts, never the first time. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hi Titan, this sounds like an IE security setting issue. Things to do:
1. In Internet options>Security>Local Intranet, make sure "Enable Protected Mode" is not selected.
2. Under Sites>Advanced, add https://*.sharepoint.com (and make sure "Require server verification..." is not checked).
3. Under Security>Custom Level, scroll all the way to the bottom and make sure "Automatic logon with current user..." is checked.

Submitting PDF Form to SharePoint 2010 Library

I've inherited a simple PDF form created with LiveCycle ES2. We'd like to be able to let users Submit the result of the form in a PDF format, to a SharePoint 2010 Library using a Submit button. I've added a button and configured the Control Type to Submit. I've added a SharePoint library to the Submit to URL: field and changed to Submit to PDF. Now when I click the button, it opens the SharePoint library but nothing is there. I'm sure there's more I need to do to get this working. Do I need to install the server-side stuff for LiveCycle on the SharePoint server?

This is not striclty my area of expertise so I don't want to give you a bum steer - at best my response is vague but it may give you a few clues of where to start looking. I'm not too sure how you might have confgured this but your PDF form needs somewhere to send the data and then receive and store it - that's not a SharePoint list or document library (I seem to recall reading somewhere that you can do clever stuff with PDF and SharePoint but I don't think it works out of the box like you're describing here - that info basically alluded to using PDF and SharePoint together [like marketing statements] but didn't go into the hows). I suspect that submitting a PDF form may result in an XML data stream but don't quote me on that either. Alternatively if Acrobat is going to collate results then I think the form being submitted may need to end up in the same locaiton as the "master" PDF form but again I'm guessing a bit here too. For all intents the "master" pdf form may need to reside in SharePoint (and as a result it is addressable on a URL or as a file via WebDAV) in which case it will (or ought to) function like any other PDF form where you can collate results to a spreadsheet. If thats all it can do then using SharePoint seems moot. I think Google is your friend here :-)

Error when trying to pulish an InfoPath form to SharePoint 2010 list

I am getting this error:
The SOAP response indicates that an error occurred on the server:
Server was unable to process request.---> Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Any ideas on why I can't publish form and how I might fix this?
Laura

Hi Laura,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you published your InfoPath form.
I aggreed with Sangha said, please check the "Design Checker" to check if there are any errors in the form.
If yes, I suggest you remove the related fields and check if the form can be published successfully.
There are two similar posts, please check if they are useful for you:

How to do simple form post to payment gateway from SharePoint 2010 list form OR InfoPath 2010 Web Form?

Working on a SharePoint 2010 Ent extranet site where parents of students can submit field trip permission forms and make payment at same time (optionally if fees involved). Was wondering if someone could advise (or point me to resource on) best way
to do a simple form post to an external payment gateway? Would be from InfoPath web form OR SharePoint 2010 list form.
Any guidance would be appreciated.

Customize Access Requried page with code behind attached to it in sharepoint 2010

Hi,
I have modified default AccessDenied page to my custom accessdenied.aspx page and put Request Access button on it and javascript client side redirection to my requestaccess (reqestaccess.aspx, reqestaccess.aspx.cs) application page.
Here the problem is whenever i try to redirect to custom requesaccess page in _layouts it again shows me accessdenied page since user is not having access.
I changed requrestaccess to my custom requestaccess through Powershell command (UpdateMapping - 5). I can only modify the UI part of requestaccess.aspx and can not bind code behind where i want user to select combination of what access is required
on the site, there are lots of controls on requestaccess page e.g. dropdown that fetches data from list\external list and so on.
I tried many things to attach code behind to requestaccess page e.g. <%@ Page Inherits="codebehind.cs" /> and all.
Q - How can i redirect user to custom request access page (includes both aspx, aspx.cs) and allow user to interact with custom page? Is there any way OR WORKAROUND to do this in Sharepoint 2010?
OR
Can we overide with ElevetedPermissions in UI\CodeBehind and show the application page to user?
OR
Can user access application page even though they donot have rights to access site? Anything will do.
OR
In short, I need to redirect a user to some .aspx\.aspx.cs page from AccessDenied page, irrespective of user having access or not.
I hope question is clear enough to understand the issue. :)
Regards,
Rahul

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you had an issue about the custom Access Required page.
Microsoft supported using code behind, but for these pages it seemed some difference.
However, as a workaround, we can put all the functionality to the aspx page directly.

Anonymous User forms in Sharepoint 2013 Online

I'm using Sharepoint 2013 online with Office 365.
Is there any way for an anonymous user to communicate with the site using forms (preferably Infopath)?
There are many, many versions of this question on the web. Several lead to
http://claytoncobb.wordpress.com/2011/06/03/infopath-allowing-anonymous-users-to-submit-forms-in-sharepoint-2010/, but this is about Sharepoint 2010, not 2013. Other answers talk about features that are not in Sharepoint online 2013, such as Application
Management in Central Administration. There is also a Sandbox solution from CodePlex that gets touted,
https://anonymous365.codeplex.com/, but this fails in Sharepoint Online 2013.
The only feature I can find is the Excel Survey in Form Templates. This is at least a start, but what I really want is the ability for an anonymous user (a customer) to submit information into a Custom List using a form; or, second best, in an email (WITHOUT
having to have Infopath Filler installed). Seems a pretty basic need, really - letting your customers place orders. This is all do-able for a fully-subscribed user of the intranet site, but I can't afford to buy individual subscriptions for all my customers.
Nor do I want them seeing each other's data, or accessing my intranet!
I have spent so long researching this and getting nowhere, and really need to know if it's just a straight 'no, it's impossible', or keep trying.
Thanks
Jonathan

Thanks pramod7
Yes, I am using the public site. But unless I'm missing something, Custom Lists (and associated forms) cannot be exposed to anonymous users. They are just not in the permissions list.
I can create a page in the public site and add a Form Templates web part. The options I then get for creating a new form in the Form Templates library are Word Document, Excel Workbook, Powerpoint Presentation, One Note Notebook or Excel Survey. An
InfoPath form is not an option. None of these (as far as I can see) allow for any data entered in the 'form' by a user to be stored in a Custom List for further processing. Most require the user to have Word/Excel/whatever on their machine, rather than
just use the browser. The nearest you get is the Excel Survey, which at least regularises the data entered by an anonymous user into columns in a spreadsheet, but this is not sophisticated enough for, say, an online ordering system in which you would not want
customers seeing each other's orders.

InfoPath 2013 customized forms no longer working after linking Sharepoint 2010 list to MS Access 2013 database

Hello,
I am having trouble with my infopath form now that I have linked my Sharepoint list to an Access database.
Background: I created a simple SharePoint list and a few workflows to have users submit requests for changes to my organization's EMR system and have those requests be approved by the appropriate manager/department. I used
InfoPath to customize my form so that it would hide/show different portions depending on what the user selected. The form has 3 views: NewItem, EditItem, ViewItem.
Issue: The form and workflows were working great until I linked my SharePoint list to an access database so that I could run queries and reports using that information. Now when I click "Add New Item" on my Sharepoint site,
the correct form opens but the fields do not allow me to input any data and some of the formatting for the form has changed (ie: the text boxe fields are no longer centered. I opened the form in InfoPath and it displays perfectly fine in there but
not once it's published to the site) .
The only way that I've been able to input new data is using Datasheet view in SharePoint.
Is there a way to fix this issue? I really need to be able to have the customized forms for users to fill out the information since most users are not familiar enough with SharePoint to expect them to be able to use Datasheet view to submit their requests.
Again, I'm using InfoPath 2013, Access 2013 & SharePoint Server 2010
If the issue cannot be fixed, how can I disconnect or unlink my SharePoint list from the Access database because when I cliecked on "delete list" from inside Access, a warning popped up stating that it will also delete the list off of SharePoint
as well. If I can get the list back to the state it was in before linking to Access then I'll be happy enough to export it excel and then importh the excel file to Access as a work around for reporting purposes since I don't have to run the reports that
often.
Any insight would be very helpful!!

Hi Bostic,
I tested the same scenario per your post in my environment, however the InfoPath form was not affected if I used the list as external data in Access database.
The issue may be due to the browser you used.
I recommend to verify the things below:
Change another browser to see how it works.
Add the site to the trusted zone and add to compatibility settings in Internet Explorer.
Test with a new list to narrow down the issue scope.
As a workaround, you can save the list as a template including content, and then create a new list based on this template.
