Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Development with Visual Studio 2010 Expert Cookbook

Chapter 2. Workflows

In this chapter, we will cover:

Creating a sequential workflow
Creating a site workflow with initiation form
Deploying an InfoPath form with a workflow
Creating a task from the workflow
Creating a custom task form

Creating a sequential workflow

In this recipe, we will learn how to create a sequential workflow. For this recipe, we will model a credit approval process. When a user adds an item to a list, we will let the workflow instantiate automatically on the inserted item and flow through the process of checking the user's requested credit line and approving it based on user's employment and credit history.

Getting ready

You should have a fully functional development machine with SharePoint 2010 installed and configured. You also need Visual Studio 2010 IDE installed on the same development machine. We are using a team site template for our examples.

Use the custom list template and create a list from the SharePoint user interface called Credit Approval. The following table provides information on fields and its properties:

Field Name	Data Type	Required
Credit Requested	Currency	Yes
Employment History	Choice (Choices - Good, Bad, and None Exists) ...

Creating a task from the workflow

So far we created workflows that run automatically without stopping for user input in the middle of the process. Initiation or association data come before the workflow is started. There are many situations where in the middle of the workflow process you may want input from a user to proceed further. To do this, we will create tasks in SharePoint.

In this recipe, we will create an Employee Suggestion Program (ESP) workflow, where employees of a company can provide suggestions on the betterment of the business processes that are in place in the company. For this, when an employee suggests a process improvement, a task is assigned to the department director to take a look at and decide on the value of the suggestion.

Getting ready

Create a custom list from the SharePoint UI called ESP. The following table lists all the attributes of the fields in the list:

Field Name	Data Type	Required
Title	Single line of text	Yes
...

I got tired of books talking about what SharePoint can do and how good SharePoint is.They all seem to be looking at 30,000 feet level with lot of SharePoint buzz words.This books takes you straight to how to dot it with clearly identified tasks/solutions followedby explanations of each solution.After few useless books, finally I hit the right one, that will accelerate my learning

Joel Plaut Dec 26, 2011

Cookbook is a good term for this book. It is an excellent overview of SharePoint programming, with a task focus on the core programming tasks and deliverables a typical programmer is faced with. This means it's a handy shelf reference when faced with an assignment.I particularly enjoyed the common approach of "How it works" and "There's more" to continue exploration. This is a well structured and approachable programming reference book I would recommend.Joel Plaut[...]#spfanatic

I purchased this book because I needed a good reference explaining business connectivity services, and also one that contained some code snippets demonstrating how to connect project code to the business data connectivity model. This book met that need.

William van Strien Dec 28, 2011

Both the book title (expert cookbook) as the table of contents (e.g. advanced workflow) sound good and promising. However the book content does not deliver on this. It certainly is no book for the SharePoint expert; there it tries to explain basic concepts as the structure of content types and site columns, webparts, features and SharePoint solutions. All this is and should be known stuff for the medium till experienced SharePoint developer.But it is neither applicable for novice SharePoint developers because it directly dives deep into the treated SharePoint subjects.Also you do not effectively learn how to apply Visual Studio for SharePoint 2010 development and deployment.The recipe format is a nice gimmick, but it soon starts to annoy since there is a lot of duplication per recipe: steps + figures. Effectively you have less content for your money.
