Using InfoPath form to create a task item in SharePoint 2013

Hi,
I have a requirement where I have to use InfoPath to create a task with attachments in a SharePoint 2013 List B.
I have to query a SharePoint Document Library A to display documents on the InfoPath form.
The user should be able to select the documents using checkboxes that he wants to attach to the task created.
When he clicks on the "Create Task" button, a task is created with the attachments in a SharePoint list B.
Also, the documents that are attached are then deleted from the SharePoint Library A.
Will the above require programming and does it have to be done on the SharePoint 2013 Server?
Thanks and regards,
Poonam

Hello,
I have already tried your solution, however in that case I get the error - "UncaughtSys.ArgumentNullException: Sys.ArgumentNullException:
Value cannot be null.Parameter name: context"...
Also, I tried removing SP.SOD.executeFunc
from my code, but no success :(
Kindly suggest !!!

  • Sharepoint infopath form should have only new item rights

    Sharepoint infopath form should have only new item rights

    You may create a custom Permission level for this requirement. Go to Site Settings -> User And Permissions -> Site Permissions -> Click on Permissions Tab in the ribbon. Now click on Permission Levels. Click on Add a Permission level.
    Give name to this new permission level. In the List Permissions, Check Edit items and keep "Add items" unchecked. Select other permissions which you need to give. Save the Permission level. Now assign this permission level to the group. Note that,
    you can also change the OOB permission levels like "Contribute" and uncheck "Add Items" permission but that may have an undesirable effect on other things. It is always better not to change OOB things.

    Is possible to take the Infopath form  with two repeat section in one Sharepoint list

    The motive is that the first repeat section is based in account own by the requestor and the second repeat section is when the requestor is doing backup time for some one else where need to log the amount of time that spend in the peer account.
    I have basic logic in the form when requestor said Are you doing backup for some else? and press YES it is be able to use the second repeat section.

  • How to disable Add New Item in SharePoint 2013

    Hi,
    I want to disable the Add New Item button after the user created one item in SharePoint 2013.
    Is it possible to disable?
    Please reply
    Thank you

    I'd do it creating a custom web part that would mimic the list web part, and have logic in there that makes sure to hide the button once an entry by the current user has been made in the list. You could also create a workflow that would remove the user's
    permission to add a new item on the list upon creating an item.

  • How to print out answers using the form I created

    I created an application form for my company. People have submitted their applications, but I do not know how to print them out.
    Is there a way to copy the answers into the form and print that? Or something like that?
    I cannot just print the answers because it's over 100 pages and would be disorganized.
    I basically just need to know how to print out the form I created with the respondants answers.
    Thanks

    Here is what you can do...
    Open the form file
    Go to the View Responses tab
    Select the View menu in the upper right corner of the UI
    Select the Details View menu item on that menu
    The Details View pane will open on the right side of the window
    At the bottom of that pane there is a set of buttons
    The first button let's you print the detail view of the currently selected response
    The last button labeled Export will create a PDF file of the selected response
    Is that what you were trying to accomplish? I'll admit that we need to make print and export to PDF more discoverable and easier to get to - that was too many steps

  • Create a private view for Task List in SharePoint 2013

    I have a Task List, How can I Create a Private View that every user can see Only his Tasks, and Sync it to his outlook (sync only his tasks) , no one can see or sync tasks not assigned to him?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to limit view permission on particular users in SharePoint.
    There is no out of the box way to achieve it in SharePoint.
    CodePlex has a good tool SharePoint 2013 Column & View Permission, it have some features as below, we can use it.
    Features:
    Column Permission
    - Hide or Read Only Columns in a List Forms (New/Edit/Display)
    - Hide Columns in Views
    - Hide Columns in Alert Me Emails
    - Specify the permission for Users, SharePoint Groups or Active Directory Groups
    View Permission
    - Disable Views
    - Automatically Disable Views in Custom WebPart Zones
    - Specify the permission for Users, SharePoint Groups or Active Directory Groups

  • Two Infopath forms to submit or update the same sharepoint list

    Hi, I'm building a request SharePoint site so users can submit a request from a simplified InfoPath form (with only 5 out of 10 fields), but support personnel can open the form and then see all 10 fields.  For the list view, I know I can create custom
    views when user's see the list.  But when they open an item, I only want them to see the fields they entered and not the other fields the support personnel can see.  So I guess my question is: can I create two InfoPath forms to update one list or
    can I create an InfoPath form that has two views so one view suppresses fields and the other does not (based on permissions perhaps).

    Hi Darby,
    I would suggest creating two views, instead of two forms. Views can be shown/hidden based on the logged in users, takes few rules to configure based on the logged in users. you can also explore web service to get the users from groups to show/hide based
    on the user group, little overhead but give more control due to the fact of one single form.
    Two forms will be bit complex, if you want to update the same rows of information.
    here are some references -

  • How to create Ticket Booking Functionality in SharePoint 2013 App?

    We have created a Ticket Booking site in Asp.Net.
    In that in Ticket Booking page user can book the ticket and the booked seats will be stored in the database. If there are any booked seats it will be disabled for the user and from other user can book tickets.
    Took reference from this site:
    http://techbrij.com/online-ticket-booking-system-asp-net-sql-server
    Now I want to do same functionality using SharePoint 2013 App Part with SharePoint Hosted App.
    I don't know how to start
    Anybody having Idea.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to create a Ticket Booking solution as SharePoint Hosted App.
    To build the similar solution in SharePoint, I would suggest you take a look at the links below about how to create ShrePoint Hosted App for a quick start:
    Create Host App:
    How to: Create a basic SharePoint-hosted app
    Create App Part:
    How to: Create app parts to install with your app for SharePoint
    Then for the data storage, here is a documentation will provide more information:
    App data storage:
    Data storage options in apps for SharePoint
    For the responsive UI, HTML plus JavaScript would be OK.
    Feel free to reply if there are still any questions.

  • How to create column for attachment in SharePoint 2013 Document Library.

    I've created document Library where user can upload the file while click on Upload option (OOTB).
    Now in this Library I want to create one more column where user can put some comment and attach one more file for reference. 
    For comment I can create "Single line of text" type calumn where user can put some comment but for attachment not sure which type of column I have to create.
    Want to know is there OOTB feature/column available which I can use to Add / create a one more column to upload a document for reference.

    Hi,
    For issue 1, please refer 
    To manage the permissions for a Document Set, you must have at least the Design or Full Control permission level.
    On the Welcome Page for the Document Set, click the Manage tab of the Document Set ribbon, and then click Permissions.
    Do one of the following:
    To change the permission settings for the document library itself, click Manage Parent.
    To stop inheriting permissions from the document library and create unique permissions for this Document Set individually, click Stop Inheriting Permissions.
    To view the specific permissions an individual has, click Check Permissions, and then type the name of the user or group you want to check.
    To inherit permissions from the parent document library (if the Document Set was previously configured to stop inheriting them) click Inherit Permissions.
    For more information about working with permissions, see the links under See Also.

  • Is there any option for voting on a list item in SharePoint 2013?

    Dear All,
    I am looking for a feature vote a for list item from multiple users and need to show consolidated results on that.
    for SharePoint 2013 we have "like", "rating" by using these can we show the consolidated results.
    otherwise is there any alternative for this.
    Thanks & Regards,

    I haven't seen any OOB vote feature in sharepoint list. It's better to go with "like" or "ratting" options.
