Portal - Entity List workflow not executing if confirmation set to yes.

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

If I have "Confirmation Required?" set to YES in the Entity List the workflow will not trigger when selected from the drop down menu.  It triggers the workflow fine if this is set to NO.  I have even re-created the entity list and page to be sure it wasn't something funny with the page.  Can anyone else confirm this behavior?

    I have tried that.  It's hitting the JavaScript when I click the workflow link but with the minification I can't really tell what it's doing.  It's definitely an issue with the JavaScript. The worst part is it works fine in my on-premise version of the portal.(which of course is not the same version...THANKS Microsoft)  ;-)

    Hi ilgy,

    You can get rid of some Gremlins with a restart :).  Give it a go if you haven't done already.

    As I already stated the workflow runs fine if the confirmation is no.  So it can't be scope or permissions.  So it appears to be Gremlins.  :-)

    The Confirmation Required setting has nothing to do with the workflow to trigger. It just ask the confirmation regarding the workflow to be proceeded.

    We tested it at our end and workflow was triggered. You may check for the privileges and the scope of Workflow though.

    Thanks!

    You might be missing something else. Setting Confirmation required to Yes/No does not affect it.

    I have also tested same scenario to be sure and workflow triggers in both cases.
