Send email when a document is moved into a folder

asked on September 18, 2018

Hello all,

 

Goal: Prevent accidental deletions of documents from users.

 

I disabled deletion privileges to users that are not Administrators of the repository. So I created a "To Be Deleted" folder so the users can drag and drop documents to be deleted into that folder. Once that document hits the folder it sends an email to the Administrator "Requesting For Deletion". The Administrator can only delete the documents. So I created a Workflow for this and when I move documents into the "To Be Deleted" folder no email is sent. However, when I manually initiate the Workflow it does works. Please review my screen shots.

Any help is appreciated.

Tom

Are you sure you don't want the "Entry Moved" starting rule type, rather than "Entry Created" as in your screenshot?

I'm going to try that. I'll let you know the results.

 

Thank you
