Quickflow

Quickflow is a predefined workflow that doesn'texecute any actions on the document. It sends the document from oneperson to another. The Quickflow has been part of the Serverproduct since the first version of 4i. In previous versions ofServer it was not called Quickflow. The template name for theQuickflow is sendToDistributionList which resides in the Systemcabinet.

Here are some steps to identify the workflow that thedocument belongs to:
- Get the task name -- You can get the task name by lookingat the inbox or querying the dmi_queue_item table

- Once you have the task name, run the following queries:

select object_name from dm_process where r_object_id in(select process_id from dm_workflow where r_object_id in (selectr_object_id from dmi_package where r_package_name ='<name of thepackage>'));

The result will be the name of the workflow associated to thedocument. Nevertheless, the Quickflow will always use thesendToDistributionList workflow.

Captial Projects File -> new greyed out in Project Configuration area or unable create picklist and other config objects



There will be reason like

1.Permission issues
2.membership issues
3.Config types missed in Content Rules of the project config folder.

But in my case the I have seen funny and intresting issue with objectlist component which is hidden configuration.

You can not see any error messgae logs because it is not error.

In the object list component we have configured columns based on folder path for the projects like below

<scope
                                location="/PROJECTS/PTDR-ABC/04. Master Documents/01. PROJECT COMMUNICATION,
    /PROJECTS/PTDR-ABC/04. Master Documents/01. Forms,">
                                <component id="objectlist"
                                                extends="objectlist:eif/config/library/objectlist/objectlist_component.xml">


unfortunately  there was comma”,” before close scope tag <01. Forms,"> so we have remove it and system behaving as expected
