Sharepoint Designer 2010 BETA Reusable Workflow

I just played around with Reusable Workflow functionality in Sharepoint Designer 2010. It’s very-very cool I have to say.

Disable Approval on Publishing Site Template

In MOSS 2007 we also have Collaboration Portal site template which we don’t have on Sharepoint 2010. This template is a publishing template except it doesn’t enable Approval Workflow on the Pages list. I personally […]

Sharepoint 2010 Beta – What Can Be Improved – Part 6 – Sharepoint Designer 2010 Beta Workflow Doesn’t Work Correctly

It simply….FAILED! I created a test document library called Test Document Library. I then created a SP workflow and associated with the list. I uploaded a new document, the workflow didn’t trigger. Fine, it might be because I haven’t set the “Start workflow automatically when an item is created”. So I went back to […]
