Workflow creating new name when Publishing

Hi team,
I am having an issue with workflows really weird.
I would edit the workflow to change a setting on the (for example, change who the workflow would send an email to) the workflow and publish it, the name of the workflow would change and add a parentheses to the workflow.
For example, Email TEST would change to Email TEST (1), Email TEST (2), etc.
Because of this, there are 4 workflows in progress. The old ones and the new ones and the users will get 4 emails from all 4 workflows. Granted, changes to the workflow would be made while the workflow was active.
In designer, if I click on one of the Email TEST(1), it would open the original Email TEST. If you try to run the workflow manually, all the workflows appear as choices to select from. It’s like it creates a completely new workflow, however when you open
it designer it still reverts to the original one.
when we delete all workflows in Progress, and change who the email is being sent to, it still creates a new name of the workflow.
In the test environment, we terminated all the workflows. Modified the Send email to user, and published it. It would change the name to Email ATAM (1), while the original workflow still had the same changes.
Ideas??

Hi,
Whenever you publish a SPD workflow, it will add a new instance of the workflow with (n) added to the new instance.
Usually, the old instance will not be active, if active you can still remove the instances on the same page you have attached.
One suggestion is to remove all the previous instances of the workflow and publish the new workflow and assign it to the list / doc lib.
While editing the workflow, it always edits the actual workflow that you have developed using SPD.
I think its little confusion with Workflow instance that was assigned to the list and workflow that you are editing using SPD.
Hope this helps!

  • Preference to "Create New Versions when making adjustments"

    Isnt the option in Preferences "create new version when making adjustments" seem irrelevant when Ap doesnt touch the original (master) anyway? How is this option intended to be used? Most of the imags for me would be slight tweeks so I wouldnt necessarily want every one of those showing as a 'full new version'.

    yeh, that would seem logical wouldn't it - to create a new version for each session... but that's not what happens.
    i mostly use the HUD and don't close between adjustments but i do sometimes use the side panel which i also don't hide/close between adjustments. i can't remember whether making adjustments via the side panel creates new versions for every adjustment, certainly this behaviour happens when i use the HUD and i'm fairly sure i would have tried the side panel to avoid this annoying behaviour but i can't say for sure and will have to test the side panel behaviour next week if i get time.
    even with the preference for 'create new versions' turned off, there seem to be certain images that always create a new version when i make an adjustment - whether using the HUD or side panel. I haven't figured out an exact pattern to this but it seems to be something to do with those files that have been 'sent to external editor'. subsequent adjustments within aperture always create a new version - haven't a clue why...
    just as an aside, sometimes when i make adjustments (particularly sharpening or noise reduction) i get single pixel wide horizontal lines of noise appearing across my images, which are there when i print or export too, not just screen artifacts due to a badly processed preview...hmmm...anyone else noticed this or has found a post about ways to avoid this?
    all that said, aperture is a godsend for my workflow

  • "Create new versions when making adjustments" - Lion, Aperture 3.1.3

    I recently upgraded to Lion, and then shortly thereafter to Aperture 3.1.3.
    While I don't seem to share everybody else's issues with Lion nor with Aperture, I do have one of my own.
    In Preferences -> Advanced, I have a box titled "Create new versiont when making adjustment."  It is checked.
    My expectation, (and the way things have always worked under Snow Leopard) is that if I select a master image and begin to make adjustments to it from _any_ feature int he adjustments pallette, that I new version will be created, stacked next to the original, and that the changes I am making will be made to the new version.  This is _not_ what is happening.
    Instead, the changes are applied directly to the master image.  This is annoying, and will probably be fixed in an update...    I thought the work around would be to manually create the version for the time being, until Apple sorts this out.  That didn't work either.
    If I manually create a version, and then proceed to make adjustments to the version, Aperture dows what I would have expected in the first place.  It creates a new version and applies the changes to that.
    For example, I right click on a master image and select "New Version form Master"  A new version, titled "... - Version 2" is created.  When I begin to modify Version 2, a new version is created titled "... - Version 3" and my changes are applied to this version... leaving me with the master and Version 2 which are now duplicates of each other.
    Even more interesting is this:
    Images that were imported into Aperture prior to the Lion upgrade, and the 3.1.3 patch behave as expected, in that a new version is created when adjustments are applied to a master image.
    Images that were imported into Aperture _after_ the upgrade to Lion and the 3.1.3 patch act as describd above, in that no new version is created when adjustments are applied to a master image.
    So...  Here are the questions:
    1. Is anybody else experiencing this?
    2. Does anybody know how to restore the correct behavior?

    Alright,   I have solved the problem.
    Some time ago, I thought it might be neat to import pictures with the Auto Exposure adjustment in place.  What I didn't realize was that if the master image is in the library with adjustments on it, it downs't create a new version when you add additional adjustments.
    As soon as I disabled that, and imported some new imges the probelm went away.
    Also... I went back to the six or seven project that I had imported while use Auto Exposure and removed that adjustment from those images...  
    All is resolved.

  • System should not creates new version when value of PO increased..

    Hi Experts,
    Need your help to solve this problem. When i increase value of PO it should retrigger Release strategy but it creates version first, then i have to tick completion indicator and check then only release strategy retriggers..
    It should not create new version when change po
    Please check below screenshot
    Please help

    Hi
    Please reveiw the following points in note
       - 493900 FAQ: Release Strategy
          4.  Why is the release strategy not determined?
         "If you use version management, the determination of the release
          strategy starts when the version is completed.
          You complete a version by setting the "version completed"
          indicator in the version tab."
       - 662993 Resetting an already occurred release
         You edit a purchasing document with release strategy.
         You change the quantity or the price. In spite of that, the
         already set release is not reset.
    The release strategy works the same with or without version management
    active - the only difference in case - version management is active -
    is that if release is to be reset, it will be reset only on version
    I hope this helsp to clarify this issue
    Kind regards,

  • Create new versions when making adjustments?

    Hi,
    What does anyone suggest this setting should be set to? It's on the Advanced Tab in Preferences.
    I think it was un checked when I installed the Trial Version.
    The help file stated the following:-
    +Create new versions when making adjustments” checkbox: Select this checkbox to have Aperture automatically create a new version when you adjust a selected image. The adjustment is applied to the original version and the new one is left untouched.+
    So when I edit an image the the software makes a copy and the original is altered? What happens if it's left un checked?
    Any help on the whole editing thing would be gratefully received.

    This is just a way to automatically create a new version when you make an adjustment. The new version is stacked with an unaltered version, allowing you to quickly see them side by side. What you have to remember is that the *original file is never altered*. This is all virtual. What is called original in this case is in fact an original version, not the actual file. The actual file is called the Master. Very important to understand the distinction.
    I personally leave this off. I never use RAW files without adjustments so there's no point in keeping an unaltered version around, plus it tends to quickly multiply versions and just creates clutter. If I want to see the original file I just hit M (this is the default command key for Show Master). Hit M again and I'm back to my version. If I've created a version and want to do a new different looking one starting from scratch, I can select New Version From Master: presto a new "original"!
    If I've worked on a picture and want to create a BW version, chances are I want to keep the work I've already done as a starting point. In that case I select Duplicate Version and do my BW on the new version. Again, I'm never actually duplicating files and I'm never actually altering pixels, original or otherwise. This is all a set of xml instructions that Aperture applies when it displays the files.
    Helping?

  • SharePoint Designer 2013 workflow - creating new items in the list

    Hi,
    I need to create a workflow in SharePoint designer 2013. Basically the flow is like that:
    There is a Request List where people submit their requests. The requests have status: Submitted and Completed.
    Once the status goes to 'Completed" there should be a workflow triggered that creates an entry in another list; VoC list and populate VoC columns. Additionally there should be an email send to the requestor that the request has been processed.
    I tried to do that but I failed - what do I do wrong? It keeps telling me that there is an error in workflow.
    Could you, please help me? Thank you.
    Thank you.
    Kind regards,
    Jowita

    With this command it populated the Voc list. But when I tried to add additional fields, the workflow did not work. Fo example, I've got a column "Requestors Name" in Request List and I would like the same column in Voc List to be automatically
    populated with the data from Requestors List. I set Field Requestors name to Value Current item:Requestors name but it did not work :-(
    What do you mean by "VoC column is already created in VoC list"?
    And one additional question: is it possible for the workflow to automatuically create new columns in the VoC list?
    Hi Jowita,
    We could use workflow to populate values in column but not populate new columns, so the column should be created in list manually before workflow.
    As I understand now, you need to use workflow to populate at least two columns in another list, and one is person or people type. I captured a screenshot for your reference, pp column is in person or group type in both two lists, please set return
    type as Display name:

  • During Convert, it created new names, new folders!

    I just converted a large number of files and iTunes reorganzed them all.
    In my prefs I had nothing checked off. Advanced.General: unchecked keep folder organized, etc. Importing: unchecked create file names, etc. But it seems to have done these things anyway.
    After letting it run all night, when I got up this morning to see progress I found it had stalled on one file and then when I clicked cancel, it just ended, and I don’t know if it completed converting all my files. (I want to trash the older ones).
    What it did: The reason I can’t tell what exactly it did is that it changed the titles and reorganized the folders, creating new folders where I had none. I know it “did the right thing” as far as correctly identifying what it could and correctly finding out what album a song came from - but that’s not how I had them organized.
    Exactly what it did: Case in point: I had a folder named “African Rhythm.” In it I had a song file named “03 Amaliza.” iTunes created a new folder named “TWA” (which is the name of the actual band but I had it in a compilation folder) and in it created another new folder named “African Rhythms,” and in that retitled my song file as “Amaliza.” (Correct name but it dropped the “03” before it.)
    How can I get iT to leave my file and folder names as they were before converting?
    Thanks for any help with this.

  • Create new layer when copying/pasting

    I'm sure we're all aware of this in Photoshop, but I've just come across a tutorial for Illustrator that assumes this also happens in this program.
    Not in mine, it doesn't!  I've had a trawl through Preferences (CS4) with no luck.  Do you have to create a new layer then paste into it?

    >>Obviously Illustrator doesn't automatically create a new layer when pasting as you get in Photshop.
    Yes, that's because a Layer in Illustrator can contain many independent objects which can be individually moved, resized and otherwise manipulated. Basically an Object in Illustrator is roughly equivalent to a Layer in Photoshop and a Layer in Illustrator is roughly equivalent to a Group (shown as a folder icon) in Photoshop. That is slightly over-simplifying but a pretty good way to understand the differences.

  • How to hide full name when publishing photos to icloud's public website?

    When allowing iPhoto to publish photos to iCloud (Public Website, allow anyone to view this photo stream at:..." my full Name (xxx by xxx) is always displayed when opening the link.
    Does anyone know how to hide or change the name displayed?

    I tried changing my name (Apple ID). It had no effect on the Aperture photo stream website page (and yes, I tried it with a new photo stream).
    I still think your name should not be included by default with public website, as well as ability to prevent pictures from Copy/Save.

  • "Create new versions when making adjustments" checkbox - do I check it??

    I have been using Aperture for many months. I'm not sure why, but I looked at my prefs the other day and the checkbox above was unchecked. Two important questions:
    1. Which way should this be set??
    2. Is Aperture still keeping the original separate from any edits I am making? PLEASE tell me that my originals have been kept separately!!! : )
    Thanks in advance,
    Erik

    1. It's a Preference. It should be set the way you prefer.
    2. Aperture never adjusts the master.
    When you look at an unadjusted image in Aperture, you are seeing +Version 1+. You can adjust Version 1, or you can create a new version and adjust that. Or you can set the preference, and when you make adjustments, a new version will be created automatically. This can cause unwanted versions to accumulate. Or maybe they are not unwanted.
    The Master is never affected, just the versions.

  • How do I limit the user creat new connect when CPU idle 5%?

    my oracle database is 9.2.0.7,
    I want to limited the new connection by created when the server (sun solars 5.9) cpu idle <5 % ?

    > I want to limited the new connection by created when the server (sun solars 5.9) cpu idle <5 % ?
    This makes absolutely no sense at all. Not even borderline idiotic - it has invaded the land of idiots looking to conquer and become the biggest one of them all. :-)
    But there is actually a very easy way to do it. Outside the database in a script, run uptime. It provides the system load averages for the past 1, 5, and 15 minutes. Use awk to extract these load numbers and use that to make the decision whether connectivity can be allowed or must be denied.
    Next check if the Oracle Listener is up. If up and connectivity must be denied, shut it down. If down and connectivity must be allowed, start it. Else, leave it as is.
    Then sleep for a few minutes and repeat.
    To make this into a proper daemon, you can simply add it to /etc/inittab and have the kernel running it for you and respawning it when it runs into a problem and dies.

  • Workflow, creating new library on an External Hard Drive

    Hi, Hopefully I'm really dumb and this will be easy for someone to answer. I'm struggling a bit with workflow in aperture 2. I have several external hard drives (one I'd like to use as a vault, and another I'd like to store most of my images on- and be able to work on them from my MBP). I also have time machine with a 500gb drive that does backups like every hour if that helps. . .
    So heres my question. . . How do I make this all work together??? So far I've been exporting projects to the hard drive (time consuming and once they are exported I have to reimport them to work with the images- I'm sure there has to be a better way). Basic problem number 1-I can't figure out how to "create" another library on the external HD.
    HD space on my MBP is limited so I'm trying to keep the storage to a minimum of current projects loading everything elas onto the external drive.
    Thanks for your patience. . .
    dr

    Yes...
    First, you need to move your iTunes songs onto the external hard drive. You can do this by going to (your home folder)->Music->iTunes->iTunes Music and then move each artist or song onto the external drive.
    Second, if you want to play the songs directly from the external hard drive without importing them back onto your computer:
    Open iTunes. Go to the iTunes menu->Preferences. Then go to the "Advanced" tab. There's a checkbox (most likely checked) next to "Copy files to the iTunes Music folder when adding to library". Uncheck that.
    I would do the same for any other computer that you want to play music from the external drive with.
    You're all set! Tell me if this works...
