Can you make this happen after the submit? </p> dvanallen on "Automated check in of an infopath form in Sharepoint" http://www.endusersharepoint.com/STP/topic/automated-check-in-of-an-infopath-form-in-sharepoint#post-3790 Thu, 29 Jan 2009 10:12:16 +0000 dvanallen 3790@http://www.endusersharepoint.com/STP/ <p>I created an infopath form and published it to a sharepoint form library. The problem I’m having is trying to have auto checkin/checkout on the form. I have two workflows to do this:<br /> The workflow for checkout seems to work but checkin does not. </p> <p>Workflow 2, Checkin: looks at two conditions,<br /> Title is not empty and Checkout Status = No,<br /> Action is Checkin current item.</p> <p>I have a rule when form is opened that changes the Checkout Status to “Yes” and submits form data (form is checked out). When the submit button is clicked the Checkout Status changes to “No” prior to saving and closing the form.</p> <p>After the form is closed the Checkout status field on the list shows “No” and “Checked out to” still shows my name. The workflow shows “Starting”</p> <p>Any ideas what I’m doing wrong </p>
