Water Cooler Demo - SharePoint Visual Studio workflows for escalations

Kirk,

Thanks for sharing this... looking for the Slo-Mo button, but will definitely be revisiting this demo.

Blessings,

Kirk, thank you for the work! This is awesome example of State Machine workflows. I'm actually looking for a way to assign multiple users separate tasks. In a sequential workflow, you can use the replicator activity, but I can't seem to find any examples of using the replicator in a State Machine workflow to assign the same task to multiple users. Have you heard of anything like this, or know how? This would be a most helpful video that a bunch of people would love to see!

Thanks!

do you have the source code for this uploaded anywhere

I am researching sharepoint for the company I work for. I am assuming you deployed to an enterprise Sharepoint server. I am assuming that the workflow itself would run on both the standard and enterprise server. My question is the Dashboard that you used to check the status of the workflows. Does it fall under the category of site manager, or does it the dash-board feature that is mentioned in enterprise?

Hi There, Thanks for sharing this excellent post, it was very much useful for me. I did created one workflow with the steps you mentioned. but i have got an error.

Can I request you if you could send me the sample code so that i can try it out opening in my solution. Tx Labhesh

HiI am working on a State Machine Workflow (SharePoint 2010). I having hard time in assigning the task to multiple reviewers and handling the OnTaskChanged event. The reviewers are going to be dynamic, else I can use n number of create task and EventDriven activity with OnTaskChanged appropriately.
Can you please direct me on how to achieve this.
ThanksChen
