Question

creating a folder in multiple folders

Laserfiche

asked on August 25 • Show version history

I tried copying a new folder I just created into multiple folders but it won't. It just wants to create the same folder in the same area it already is. I highlighted all the folders I wanted to copy the new folder into, right click and hit paste, but just does what I said above.

How do I go about copying or creating this new folder and adding it into multiple folders in 1 shot?

I just noticed I'm unable to create workflows, etc. I'm using Laserfiche at the company I work for. I have attached an image of what my Laserfiche 10.3 looks like.

Creating a copy in multiple folders is not an operation that the client supports - it can only copy to a single destination at a time. It seems to be falling back to thinking that the current folder is the one place you want a copy.

As for not being able to create workflows: is there an error that you get when you try, it doesn't let you try (possibly due to lack of permissions), or are you not able to get that far?

Thank you, I did unfortunately have to copy the folder into every folder one at a time like you said. Luckily it was only about 400 folders. Fairly quick.

As for the workflows. I noticed after a bit of digging I needed to download the workflow designer app? which I can't seem to locate a download link. I'm unable to open anything that has workflow etc. You can see in the pic what the top of the laserfiche looks like from my view.

I don't have workflow at all on my computer. Just the laserfiche program.

The Workflow designer is a separate program, which I believe you should be able to download from the support site. If there isn't anyone else at your organization who's familiar, maybe you could get in touch with your Solution Provider for assistance. Because assuming there is a Workflow server already running and configured, you'll need to know where that is.

FYI, you may want to get with your Solution Provider anyway and see about upgrading to the latest version of Laserfiche. Version 10.3's support ended on 12/31/2022
