Question

reference shortcut entry

Workflow Version 9 SDK Laserfiche

asked on January 13, 2015

Is there a way to reference a shortcut of a document without referencing the actual document? I'm trying to develop a workflow that will watch a folder structure for any "documents", and notify someone when one enters the structure, but ignore any "shortcuts"?

I was using two starting rules:

Rule one: On Creation

Type must be document

Folder path contains \ABC

Type must not be shortcut

Rule two: On Move

Type must be document

Folder path contains \ABC

Type must not be shortcut

When the conditions are met, the workflow should merely e-mail the recipient.

The workflow is firing off regardless of entry type shortcut or document.

Any ideas what I may be missing ?

Regards,

Brian

Hi Brian,

I wasn't able to recreate the issue using a generic test in Workflow 9.2. Can you open a support case and provide a copy of your exported workflow (.wfi)?

Hi,

I would also like to know what the best practise is regarding this. I have a similar situation where users are editing shortcuts, but my Workflow doesn't see the shortcut as a starting entry, it sees the original entry that the shortcut refers to.

Thanks

Sheldon

There is not enough information to troubleshoot. Other than renaming a shortcut, all other edits apply to the underlying document.
