What document are you trying to submit?

Is this a standard form or custom form?

Regarding the workflow issue, it's possible that the situation arises from how the workflows are set up. For example, if you have a Purchase Order header workflow and a line-level workflow, but the line-level workflow is not properly connected to the header workflow, the workflow button may not display because the workflow is not active.

If you can share more details about the specific workflows involved, such as the setup of the header and line-level workflows, I'd be happy to double-check the configuration and help troubleshoot the issue further.

Please feel free to provide additional information so I can assist you effectively.

Hi,

Are you working on Cutom Workflow? Did you check security roles assigned to user? Try to open form using Admin user.

Thanks,

It's single table and custom workflow and I didn't create any security related to this workflow.

If you used the workflow wizard, then I expect it to work.

I have some additional questions:

Can you send me a screenshot of the configured workflow and a submitted workflow's history?

Can you check that the form has been configured correctly with the right data source

Okay, thanks.

My next guess is that it has something to do with the submit manager. I.e. it only updates the WF Status, but never really submits it to workflow. Are you 100% sure you are submitting the safety plan to workflow?

Can you check your submit manager?

You can find an example implementation here: VendTableChangeProposalWorkflowSubmitManager
