What are workflows and why do we need them? This video provides a foundational understanding for workflows and then discusses workflows in relation to SharePoint objects, List Items, Document Libraries, Document Sets, and Sites. (Length: 12:05)

Learn how project templates for SharePoint 2010 in Visual Studio 2010 allow developers to build sequential and state machine workflows for SharePoint and import reusable workflows created in SharePoint Designer. (Length: 10:36)

Prior to SharePoint 2010, workflows had to be associated with a list. This meant that if you found a problem that would be well suited to using workflow that wasn't list or document related, you would have to find some way to associate that workflow with a list. This often led to "dummy" list items only created to be a vehicle for a workflow. (Length: 13:50)

This video demonstrates how to add, design, and develop workflow initiation forms for SharePoint 2010. (Length: 3:58)

Hi,

I am using wss3.0 and Moss 2007.

I have created a custom workflow in .net 3.0 and able to deploy it on WSS3.0.
Also, I am able to start the workflow programmatically using webservice on a list item. But i am not able to find get the event which should be called when workflow gets "completed".

As of now i have attached a receiver to historylist of workflow for checking status of workflow.
But i want to know some other method by which i can do some processing when workflow gets completed.

Please let me know if i am missing some thing or is thr any other way to attach logic once worklfow gets completed.

Thanks,
Abhi

Does anyone know why I would be getting an error message when trying to auto start a workflow on creation of a item on a Document Library.

 

I am uploading the document using the SPFileCollection.Add() method.  The file gets uploaded but the workflow "Fails on Start (retrying)". 

 

When I manually upload a document using the sharepoint IE interface, the workflow works properly.

 

Thanks!
