ReportReport
Posted on by TapiwaLouis 29

Hi there,

I created a custom workflow for custom form following the steps on the following link https://devmusings.blog/2018/03/18/custom-workflows-in-microsoft-dynamics-365-for-operations/ 

however, im unable to select the workflow type on my form's properties. I have cross checked everything and it looks like its in order as well building the project and synchronizing the db but the still the workflow type is not showing on the form's properties.

Please assist.

    Hi TapiwaLouis,

    Are you able to see other workflow types in the lookup list? Have you tried to type the value manual and see if you can build then?

    Instead of building the project only, you can also try to build the full model and sync the full database.

    Hi,

    Just copy the workflow type name from AOT and paste it in the form design property.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.

    Hi André, I cannot see other workflow types in the lookup list. I have tried typing the value manually but it is not coming up on the list. I have also built the model and its referenced models as well full database synchronization, still the problem is persisting. Is there anything else I can try

    Hi GirishS, I have tried this and built the project, as well as building the model as well as full database sync, the workflow button is still not visible. Is there anything else i can try?

    Hi,

    Just copy paste the workflow type name and build the project.

    Don't search the workflow type from lookup.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.

    Lookup wont show any workflow type. You just  type the workflow name.
