Workflow Problem : Publishing &Content Archiving

Hi all,
Thanks a lot for your help.
Let me be more clear in my question.
I am using the XML Form Builder 'Edit' page to uplaod a document. Once I click on the 'Save' button of the 'Edit' form, the content automatically gets displayed on the 'renderListItem' form and subsequently on the 'Show' form as well.
Also the document gets saved in the .xml format in one of the folders for which I have set up the workflow.
But now, the question is what is the point in setting up the workflow for a document when it gets displayed as soon as it is uploaded.
So I wanted to know how I can prevent the form from getting displayed on the 'renderItemList' form before it gets approved.(assuming that the user will always Submit the document for approval)
Jus for additional information, my workflow consists of the following,
Editor->approver->publisher->Reader(only for viewing the published contents)
Thanks and regards
Srikant

Mike, thanks for the response.
To your first question, I've looked here on MSDN as well as Google. Most information points to the indivivual not "publishing" their workflow to that list - that's not my situation. I click on the Publish button, but I get no workflow.
To your second point; I created a plain-vanilla list workflow (not a Reusable Workflow), and attached it to the desired list. When I show the workflows in SPD, my new workflow is listed under the List Workflows and when I view the SPD page displaying the
workflow settings for this workflow, and click on the "Open associated list" link, it pulls up the appropriate list.
To your third point; when I pull up the workflow settings from the list, it shows that "There are no workflows associated with this list" - as if the "publish" never happened.
This is driving me crazy!

  • Editing a previously published content item results in no workflow applied

    Hi,
    We have developed numerous workflows, which are configured as default from New menu configurations.
    We are seeing two issues:
    1) Copying an existing content item, the assigned workflow to the New menu is not applied. This is apparently by design in 11g (did work in 7.x) according to Oracle support. We have raised a product enhancement request
    2) Editing a content item which has passed through its workflow stages and has been published, the previously assigned workflow is not assigned.
    Issue 2) is what we are looking into now. Apparently (again) this is by design.
    Is there a common approach that people are using to resolve this issue, in that editing a previously published content item, those changes will be subject to the original workflow stages before it will be re-published?
    We have heard mentioned of listeners or further stages in the workflow...
    Thanks

    then use SPD to customize the task process to lock them out upon starting and give them rights again upon rejection.

  • How to publish workflows created under content type to make it available in all my-sites.

    Hi,
        i followed this procedure to publish workflows in my-sites but even after activating workflow feature am unable to get created workflow templates in my-site.
    Create a workflow and associate it with your content type in the hub.
    Before publishing this content type, export the reusable workflow and import it in all the subscriber site collections or deploy your workflow to the farm if it is a farm solution
    Activate your workflow feature
    Now, your workflow is available in the hub as well as all the subscriber site collections.
    Publish the content type. The workflow association will be publish.
          can anyone help me out of this issue. 

    Hi,
    As I understand, you encountered the issue after activating workflow feature.
    Per my test, I can get the created workflow templates
    after activating workflow feature by workflow 2010.
    1. Check if you use SharePoint 2010 workflow because SharePoint 2013 workflow doesn’t work.
    2.  Reactive the workflow template feature in your site collection.
    3. If it still doesn’t work, open the site collection you want to use the workflow in the SharePoint designer and associated the workflow with the content type in the site collection. After these steps, you can use workflow in your all site collection.
    There is a similar thread:

  • Problem in zip generation when exporting Publisher content

    Hi all
    On AIX when exporting, the publisher content size of the generated zip located in ptcs/6.4/settings/migration/ is changing between exports.
    For example, the first time export generates a 1234 bits file and the second (same content is exported) generates a 1238 bits file.
    does anybody know why?

  • Portlet Creation from published Content

    Hi Team,
    We have a workflow setup where content item will be created, approved & published in work flow. Once it is published is there way to create portlet out of the published content insteaed of going into administation --> Create Portlet --> published contnet procedure.
    Because that way content managers can easly create a new portlet once it is published.
    Thanks,

  • Problem with Content Barrier

    I just wanted to post my experience with IChat AV and problems with Content Barrier.
    After a long time with Support, I deleted Content Barrier from the startup folder and everything works fine now.
    I will give an update when I get IChat AV to work with Content Barrier installed.

    Patrick - I experienced the same problem with Content Barrier and Net Barrier too. But, I did an archive and install of Tiger (actually a reinstall) after my son's iMac was only 3 days old. Was not aware that CB was the cause of iChat not working until I tried to reinstall CB and found that to be the culprit.
    Do you also have Netbarrier? I found that was a problem too.
    I e-mailed Intego and all they could offer was did I upgrade to 10.1.7 and updated filters. I did the program update, but since I did not renew the subscription, I do not have the latest filters (last filter update was Feb 05).
    I have another e-mail to Intego saying this, but no response from them (but it was only last Friday).
    Any thoughts on an alternative content barrier program?

  • Publishing Content Types from Hub in Bulk

    I am able to publish content types from the hub just fine. However, I am in a migration scenario where over 1500 content types are being migrated to SharePoint Online from SP2013. We have successfully migrated these to the content hub, managed metadata stores,
    etc. However, when they are migrated, the publish property does not migrate with it.
    On-Premises, we could publish all of these with PowerShell so they could be consumed by the syndicated sites. Is there a way to publish all of these so that we don't have to go into each once via the UI?

    Depends who you give access too. What I'd consider doing is making a copy of what you consider to be the template for the rest of the content types, save that to a unique category within the list of content types and then build the rest off that. Show the
    client how to make changes to JUST that template and in theory you'll be fine.
    Or, are the content types in use already?

  • Publisher trouble : Published Content based portlets disabled

    I've configured an environment with an instance of publisher. Later, I've created a publisher redirector, and republished all items in the publisher back office
    For some obscur reasons, since this last modification, I cannot create new portlets based on the Published Content web service. I always got the message "This portlet has been deactivated. Contact your portal administrator."
    I've checked the Published Content web service and it's enabled
    Where is the error ? Must I configure something in another place ?
    Another error, that has a probable relation with this previous error : I'm not able to do a "preview" of all my content items under the publisher back office, I always got an error saying me that or the page is unknown

    The exact problem is : after importing the PTE file published_content_portlets.pte, I cannot use the newly imported portlets.
    For example, when I want to create a new portlet base on the template "News" french localized, I cannot modify this new portlet : I got a popup which told me that the template is not properly configured or files are missing.
    By the way, when I open the publisher explorer, I can see all the portlets I've imported but they are not published

  • Problems publishing to iweb

    I just want to thank everyone who post on here as your advice really does help.
    I had problems publishing to iweb and the following suggestions made by you all helped me overcome the difficulties I was having. I am posting this so that others who may be having the same problems as I was may sort their iweb out too!
    Obviously not all of these will help everyone and some people may disagree with what I have said but (touch wood) these ALL sorted out my iweb
    1. Empty your cache frequently.
    2. Do not use web counter/email me buttons
    3. rename your photos so that you are not using !@£$%^&*()_
    4. keep trying
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.5)   http://web.mac.com/gillianward/iWeb/Site/Welcome.html

    No, its not strange at all. When you set up a MobileMe account and publish a site from iWeb it publishes to your iDisk, which is your Apple server that host your site.
    Your url for an iWeb published site to MobileMe will be http://web.me.com/username/sitename. You don't actually need the sitename if you only have one site, so as OT has said http://web.me.com/username.
    No - reggie88.com is not your username, this is a domain name. www.reggie88.com is a domain name also, not a MobileMe username. Have you actually gone to a domain name registrar and registered a domain name? If you want to use a domain name with MobileMe, then you need to go and purchase one first from a domain name registrar.
    No - iWeb does not tell you in iWeb that you username is www.reggie.com. The only way that iWeb will have this at the bottom, is if you have logged into your MobileMe account and gone to the Personal Domain name settings section and entered a personal domain into here. Log into your MobileMe account and check whether you have done this - this is the only reason why iWeb will display this.
    Next question, do you actually own or have you purchased a domain name - reggie88.com? If you have, then you can use this domain with a MobileMe account, but there are other steps that you need to go through first to link the two.
    In the meantime, find your site by entering the url http://web.me.com/username which in your case is probably going to be http://web.me.com/reggie88 and you should get to your site.

  • Publishing Content Items through API

    Hello,
    I am currently using EDK 5.3 for publishing content items. I have been sucessful in editing an existing content item using APIS. However It looks like APIS doesn't have a way to schedule to publish content items for a future date.
    I tried to do some reverse engineering and found out that this information is stored in pcsscheduledcontent and pcsscheduleitems tables. I was able to figure out how to change the dates as this are stored in pcsscheduleitems table,however can't find out where are the values are being stored for time.
    Say, I want to publish the content item for 08/28/2008 4:00 pm using the APIS, I am able to get to the date from the above 2 tables but really can't find out where the time is stored. I have tested from the User interface that the time is also retained based on the options we pick.
    And also I have seen that the Loadid keeps on increasing for every change I make.
    Can someone please help me/ guide me in the right direction?
    Thanks.

    pcsscheduledContent table. schedule something to be published in the future and then do a select on that table with an order by clause of :
    ORDER BY ITEMBEGINDATE DESC
    The itembegindate column contains the date AND time of the publishing schedule. you may just not be converting the value correctly.
