Attaching LF Forms file to Document Created in WorkFlow

asked on October 26, 2015

Hello,

 

When a user submits a form I use a work flow to create a LF document based on the data entered. There is an attachment with the submitted form, how do I attach this file to my Laserfiche entry via workflow?

 

Thank you.

You can use Retrieve Forms Content to get the attachments, then Create Entry to create a LF document and Attach Electronic Document to attach the file to entry you created.

I have tried this and it still won't attach the file to the LF document. This is what I have done:

1) Create Article Entry

2) Assign Field Values

3) Attach Electronic Document (Source : Activity - (Retrieve Laserfiche Forms Content::Attribute:Collection)),

Attach File To: Other Entry

Activity: Create Article Entry

Entry: OutputEntry

 

Am I missing something?

Retrieve Forms Content returns attachments as a collection because there could be more than one. You want to go through them with a For Each Row activity. Inside For Each Row, create the entry and attach the electronic document.

Thank you this worked. The one thing I noticed when I use the Laserfiche Client it shows up as the native file, when I right click and select Metadata all the info is there. Is there a way I can save it as a Laserfiche document where the attached file is encapsulated within?

Once again thank you for your help.
