We have a user who is having difficulty with transition a PQUOTE workflow from “Working” to “Submit for Approval”. User is (…/user/5/edit)
We’ve been using a test PO (…/pquote/7246/view) along with changing permissions to see if he’s able to transition into the “Submit for approval” state…after 5 seconds, it returns him to the “working” state under his own name…
I’ve given him Admin permissions and that did not make a difference…it seems to follow his user profile…
we’ve also tried different computers, different browsers, to no avail…
I did notice that the POST string submitted between myself and him differ in the order of commands…does this matter?
I was able to reproduce this issue. Even when I stopped impersonating that user and tried again, I ran into the same issue. I’m going to send this over to our engineers to take a look at.
Until we hear from the engineers, I did find a strange temporary workaround the might also work on your end. It seemed that if I set the workflow to “Submit for Approval” and assigned it to you (only you) it worked. From there, I could reassign it to someone else.
I heard back from our engineers. They assume you were seeing the issues with this in your production environment, but in your beta there was an issue for which they’ve made a fix.
Production didn’t have the code that had the bug. Can you confirm whether or not this is still an issue?
I verified that it now works in the beta site but it is really slow (takes about 7 seconds to move to “submit for approval” state.)
It still Does not work in the production environment. the same user #5 is unable to transition the workflow. The workflow returns to “working”, under his name.
Also, looking back over this thread and the support ticket I created, I apologize that you did not get a response to this much earlier. I am going to include you as a collaborator on the ticket so that we can communicate with you there.
Here’s an example, in this case, routing within an NCR - <…/otd/ncr/611/edit#>
User #5.
According to the Access Control screen, under “Controller = "workflow:ncr”, this user has access when I “:Test User Access”. It shows “User Can Access Function”.
When this user tries to route a NCR workflow from initial Creation to “Send to Review”, it hangs for about 15 seconds, then shows " Success: NCR 611 moved to 'Creation’". It never actually routes user to “Review”…
