The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information. Outcome: Unknown Error

Received this error (The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.) recently on a workflow that was
working fine and no changes were made to the workflow.
I have tried a few suggestions, i.e. adding a pause before any ‘Update’ action (which didn’t help because the workflow past this action without incident); checked the data type being written
to the fields (the correct data types are being written); and we even checked the list schema to ensure the list names and the internal names are aligned (they
are), but we still cannot figure out why the workflow is still throwing this error.
We located the area within the workflow step where it is failing and we inserted a logging action to determine if the workflow would execute the logging action but it did not, but wrote the same error message.
The workflow is a Reusable Approval workflow designed in SharePoint Designer 2010 and attached to a content type.
The form associated with the list was modified in InfoPath 2010.
Approvers would provide their approval in the InfoPath form which is then read by the workflow.
Side note - items created after the workflow throws this Unknown Error some seem to be working fine.
We have deleted the item in question and re-added it with no effect.
Based on what we were able to determine there don’t seem to be any consistency with how this issue is behaving.
Any suggestions on how to further investigate this issue in order to find the root cause would be greatly appreciated?
Cheers

Hi,
I understand that the reusable workflow doesn’t work properly now. Have you tried to remove the Update list item action to see whether the workflow can run without issue?
If the workflow runs perfectly when the Update list item action is removed, then you need to check whether there are errors in the update action. Check whether the values have been changed.

The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information using Update Item action

I got error "The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information "I found out the cause is Update Item action
I need to update item in another List call Customer Report ,the field call "Issues" with data type "Choice" to yes
then the error arise . please help..

Thanks for the quick response Nikhil.
Our SPF 2010 server is relatively small to many setups I am sure. The list with the issue only has 4456 items and there are a few associated lists, eg lookups, Tasks, etc see below for count.
Site Lists
Engagements = 4456 (Errors on this list, primary list for activity)
Tasks = 7711 (All workflow tasks from all site lists)
Clients = 4396 (Lookup from Engagements, Tslips, etc)
Workflow History = 584930 (I periodically run a cleanup on this and try to keep it under 400k)
Tslips = 3522 (Engagements list can create items here, but overall not much interaction between lists)
A few other lists that are used by workflows to lookup associations that are fairly static and under 50 items, eg "Parters Admin" used to lookup a partners executive admin to assign a task.

Background job not updating data for some steps of program

We have created a custom program and submitting the standard program RPRCCC_READ_KR1025
which is used for conversion of AMEX credit card files.
Since this program can update data for 1 company id at a time,we have created a background job
for that program with 10 steps and 10 variants of data related to 10 different company codes.
when this job is executed it is not updating data for all the 10 files , sometimes it updates 5,7,etc...
If we execute the other files which didnt update in job manually they are getting updated.
All the files executed with that program can be seen in PRTA transaction.
Regards,
Gautham.
Edit: Solved.
Since the standard program updates the database every time with commit work
there should be some time until the next database update,so we can use wait command
after the submit statement which will do the trick.

Hi,
I mean B(Sub Assembly)
Item Rollup Flag
A No
--B Yes
---B1 No
---B2 No
---B3 No
--C Yes
In this case when we run cost rollup by giving item A, Oracle will consider below structure.

The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.

I started getting these errors on one of my lists that has several workflows running on it. The strange thing is it has been running pretty much error free for 1.5 years and we have not made any changes to the workflows and no updates have been applied prior
to the errors staring.
It is typically always the same workflow but it doesn't always happen, only some of the newly added list items will error. If I simply cancel the current instance and manually start it again it runs fine to completion and it only seems to error out
at the start.
Most of the other workflows pause/wait for a status change but I will be reviewing all the workflows to confirm there is no locking conflict. I have added a Wait to one other workflow that I know will update the list item on startup, it is populating
the Title column but even after that I am still getting the error.
I noticed in the TraceLogs, 2 errors that started on Feb 2 and I could not find them in any previous logs (went back many days with no occurrences).

The "Field ID"{49af83c9...} listed is a Lookup column to a Clients list on the same site.
Any suggestions on what could be causing the sudden errors. I will be reviewing all other workflows but as I mentioned previously, this system has been working great up until Feb 2 with no changes to the lists or workflows for 3-6+ months.
Thanks in advance.

Approval Workflow does not update the Content Approval status if started automatically

Hi,
I’m using a simple Approval Workflow associated with
Content Approval on site pages. It works fine when I set it to be started manually (by using
Allow this workflow to be manually started by an authenticated user with Edit Item permissions
option) and on the completion of the workflow the
Content Approval status is updated accordingly. But when I set it to be started automatically (by using
Start this workflow when a new item is created
/ Start this workflow when an item is changed
options), it does not updates the Content Approval status. Note that I’ve set the
Update the approval status after the workflow is completed (use this workflow to control content approval)
option to true.
Regards

Hello,
It is recommended to select "Start this workflow to approve publishing a major version of an item" when you want to use the workflow to manage content approval for
a library.
According to the Notes for “Enable Content Approval” option in
this reference:
If you are using this Approval workflow to manage content approval (moderation) for a library, and you selected the Start this workflow to approve publishing a major version
of an item check box on the Add a Workflow page..
If you did not select the Start this workflow to approve publishing a major version of an item check box on the Add a Workflow page because you do not want this workflow to
be the default content approval workflow for a library, you can select the Update the approval status (use this workflow to control content approval) check box to make this workflow a secondary content approval workflow that specific users can
start manually.
That means having an approval workflow start automatically when a document is changed or created is not a good practice when you want to use the workflow to manage
content approval for a library. You should either select "Start this workflow to approve publishing a major version of an item" or give users the option to start the workflow manually at the time they want to submit for an approval.
Thanks & Regards.

Dataguard - logical standby - need help - not updating data at commit

Hi
Need help ?
We have logical standby setup where data is not updated at standby when committed at Primary. It only updates when alter system swith logfile.
On Primary:
log_archive_dest_2='service=xxStandby LGWR ASYNC valid_for=(online_logfiles,primary_role) db_unique_name=xxStandby'
On Standby:
we have already created standby redo logs ( 1+ # redo logs)
we used ALTER DATABASE START LOGICAL STANDBY APPLY IMMEDIATE NODELAY;
The data only ships when we do the ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE whereas it should so when data is commited on the primary.
Is there anything we are missing or need attention.
Please help
Thanks you so much

Yes, I have standby redo logs = ( 1 + # redo logs on the primary) and are of same size.
I also changed the log_archive_dest_2 setting for valid_for to ALL_LOGFILES, but the performance is still very slow... we are now overr 9 hrs behind the primary.
log_archive_dest_2='service=xxStandby LGWR ASYNC valid_for=(ALL_LOGFILES,primary_role) db_unique_name=xxStandby'
The Logical standby performance reallly not good at all. trying to increase sga/pga more ... hoping this will speed up some

Workflow Container not updated

Hi All,
The user has taken action on a work item, but one parameter in container is not updated.
Is there any user related authorization we need to take care.
Thanks,
Aravind

Hi All,
Thanks for the replies. I will further elaborate the scenario. This is an HCM forms & processes based workflow.
The user is approving the form, the user can either approve, reject or return the form. Based on this PROCSTATE variable
can have 3 values, APPROVE, REJECT or BACK. But for one user only the PROCSTATE parameter in container
is not getting set.
Why for only one user this parameter is not set? If this is an issue with binding, it would have happened all the users.
Thanks,
Aravind

OPC Server does not update data value

Hello,
I have a problem with a program that uses an OPC server to comunicate with a PLC.
It happens randomly, when I update the data, i cannot see any patern, sometimes it happens quickly, sometimes it takes longer...
The data socket is declared like that:
hr = DS_OpenEx ("psp://localhost/Server/Automate.405466", DSConst_WriteAutoUpdate, NULL, NULL, DSConst_EventModel, TIMEOUT_OPC_mSEC, &ecr_MW5465);
And is update like this:
hr = DS_SetDataValue(ecr_MW5465, CAVT_SHORT, l_buf, 1, 0);
The function does not return any error, but the value is not updated server side.
Lookout version is 6.6, the program is made with CVI 8.5.1 and communication is in ethernet modbus. I do not know if further details could be useful.
Thank you.

Fred,
Can you read the value being updated directly from the OPC server? Usually you can just view the values and see if they are updating.
The next thing to check would be to use the shared variable monitor to see if the variables that are bound to the OPC server are updating. It is under Tools >> Shared Variable >> Variable Manager.
Also, when you have the program running, do you get any type of error from reading the shared variable? If you are seeing an error, it would give us a little more insight into what is going on.

Can not update data in table view

When i open a table from a connection in the connection navigator i can not alter the data in it... I can only add new rows. Is there a setting so i can alter the data?
My user has update rights because when i write my own update statement and execute it, it works fine.

I found the issue... You can do it in 10g but you have to define a PK on the table, otherwhise he does not know what row to update. When i added a PK i could edit the data in Jdev in data view.

OOB Approval Workflow does not update WorkflowStatus column as "In Progress"

Dear Experts,
Any advice will be most appreciated. Here is the scenario
Repository: document library
Workflows: OOB Approval Workflow is turned on
User Action: User uploads multiple documents (say 5 or 10) to the document library
the workflow status column is not marked as "In Progress" for some of the documents. Out of say 10 documents, 6 to 7 have "In Progress" in the workflow status column and the remaining 3 to 4 don't have it!
It is very critical to have this field updated.
Alternatives: Currently it seems like the only way to update the blank workflow status column is to delete the document and re-upload it.
Solution tried: Tried turning off "Update Content Approval" option in the workflow settings. No use.

I've found out more about this. The workflow itself starts, but the workflow status column does not get updated as "In Progress" or "Approved". Its just blank.
Whats even more interesting is that it fails if the web app's port number is 80 (URL in this case will be http://server_name/doc_lib)
but it works perfectly if the port number is anything other than 80! (URL in this case will be http://server_name:port_number/doc_lib)
Any clues as to why it behaves this way?
Thanks in advance,
NP

Class attribute in technical workflow log not updated

Hi Gurus,
I built a workflow analogous to the famous demo workflow "demoformabs" but with the demo class: CL_SWF_FORMABSENC instead of the BOR: FORMABSENC.
In the BOR Formabsenc there is also an attribute for the "Approver" (USR01) in addition to "Creator" (USR01).
This attribute "Approver" is missing in the class "CL_SWF_FORMABSENC".
So I added this attribute "Approver" also in the class "CL_SWF_FORMABSENC":
data APPROVER type SIBFLPORB value CL_SWF_BOR_TYPES=>MC_USR01.
Finally in the method "approve" I set the value for the attribute "APPROVER".
me->approver-instid = me->APPROVBY.
I can see that the value has been successfully set by setting a binding from this class attribute to a workflow container element.
BUT, in the technical workflow log (container) I can not see the class attribute "Approver" populated.
Here it´s still displayed as < no instance >.
What do I need to do, to make this value appear also in this class attribute in the technical workflow log?
Albeit I know, that it´s working, I am getting confused, that it´s still displayed as empty.
Cheers,
Dominik

Hi Dominik,
You should not populate attributes in this manner, for the very reason you're experiencing. Attributes are transient and behave like variables, i.e. when the class stops existing they disappear. During binding only the key is transferred, and - if needed - the class is re-instantiated at the other end. If you have implemented some kind of buffering/instance management (not a bad idea), then you may be lucky to have attributes survive if everything happens within the same program context. However once your WF session stops executing, this is lost.
This is why when you look at the log later, it is re-instantiating a completely new instance - where would it know the approver from?
The attribute value must be written to the DB somewhere, so that any later object instantiation (e.g. when you look at the log) will read the value and populate the attributes correctly.
Incidentally this is why OO theory discourages the use of public attributes and suggests GET_ and SET_ methods instead....

Mike
