Dynamics GP Workflow–Task Approval Page redirects to local server URL even if the used URL was published!!
Looks like the folk at Microsoft forgot to remove the local URL when redirecting from Task Approval page to the actual document behind “This workflow task applied to:”: So if your workflow was published over the internet and you users tries to open a document, the system will redirect them to the local server and not to the website as shown below: To workaround this, I had to use SharePoint Designer or any available scripting tool to change the redirection of the below hyperlink in (C:Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft Sharedweb server extensions12TEMPLATELAYOUTSDynamics.Workflow.TaskApprovalPage.aspx): .

Dynamics GP Workflow Backup
It has been a very tough month, me and all my team which now are 12 consultants in Dynamics Innovations are overloaded with tasks and projects assignments, I am travelling to Jeddah – KSA the upcoming couple of hours and wanted to post some articles before it leave my remaining rooms of my mind! I been in a situation the last couple of days were one of my customers had a failure in their portals server that holds the Workflow and the Business Portal, after performing the reinstallation and making sure that all systems are up and running, I realized that the workflow I have created for this clients is a tree with 7 levels in depth and 900 lines of conditions that checks the cost center for each purchase order line and redirect the purchase order for the concerned department manager for first line approval! In addition, imagine the documents that will be lost during the maintenance procedure and the documents that will be stuck between the workflow and Dynamics GP! I been lucky having a planned backup performed on daily basis, where I been able to restore the backup and proceed with the production environment smoothly. Worth to mention that when I used the backup set I had for the Workflow database it failed to launch the applications! I had to restore the entire web application from the SharePoint Central Administration portal to get this done. I wanted to share the script I used to schedule the daily backup, it is basically a batch file that will be called by Windows Scheduler daily and will command the STSADM to perform a backup to specific folder, that will be automatically created based on the backup date, replace “ ” with your actual server name and “ ” with your actual port: @ECHO OFF @SET STSADM=”c:program filescommon filesmicrosoft sharedweb server extensions12binstsadm.exe” for /F “tokens=1-4 delims=/- ” %%A in (‘date/T’) do set DATE=%%B%%C%%D for /F “tokens=1-4 delims=:., ” %%a in (‘time/T’) do set TIME=%%a%%b%%c echo Workflow Backup Operation Started…

Add Purchase Order Line Account Number to PO Workflow
My customer requested to setup the workflow step based on the account (expense or inventory) assigned to the line items, this account is loaded from the e-requisition module when generating the purchase order and it represents the cost center of the requested item. They wanted to have this for their projects which is currently managed using an account segment, unfortunately the workflow does not integrates the line account number where I had to find another alternative solution. One of the fields I found in the workflow was “Requested By” which was unused by most of users nor was used by e-requisition module, so I created a trigger to copy account number from the original field to the requested by field and created the workflow on the requested by field
