Unable to select/find a custom Workflow Type in my form's properties

Posted on by Zain Bokhari 3,208 Moderator

I have created a custom workflow for my custom form and I have cross-checked almost everything twice now. Everything looks fine but I am unable to select the workflow type on my form's properties. The workflow I created does not show up in the workflow type drop-down window for the form. Custom workflow category setup for HR module.

Anyone has an idea as to why it would not appear in the above window? I need help with this please???!

    Hi Zain,

    I haven't created a new workflow on the new D365 yet. But I have noticed that sometimes property values do not show up until the element that should show up is saved or build correctly. Sometimes I could type the value which was then also accepted.

    giving a try to build packages and related packages may be worthy. also mark db synchronization, while you will build packages

    Hi Andre and Sohaib,

    Thank you for your responses.

    I'm afraid I've already covered all of that, and you're right Andre I've already tried to type in the name of the work-flow element it accepted the value but work-flow didn't work on the form even then.

    I have also done the build and db sync steps multiple times.

    I'll keep digging and share if I find a solution.

    Thank you both for your time.

    okay, for moment how about trying to do something manually with xml file of form so that you can keep your work going. I mean if this is urgent to fix.

    Interesting idea, that may actually solve the problem for now. But I would definitely like to know why it doesn't work the way it is supposed to. It is not that urgent but I would definitely test this.

    Thanks Sohaib.
