can someone provide a usecase where we use process backed record

Hi All, We have a headless pattern: The task is initiated by User A(who belongs to Group A) and submitted to User B /Group B for approval, as per requirement User A who was initiator can recall the task and update the data if required and submit once again to User B for approval. So when the task is in User B’s Bucket, along with User B ,User A can also take action (Recall to Edit) we at this point plan to give Task Assignment to both users (A & B) for it. At this point if User A acts on the Task ,then the Task must be removed from User B's bucket and vice-versa. Has anyone implemented such solution or have once succeeded for such requirement? Thanks in advance. 

Hello everyone, Our client asked for a requirement where we should allow our users to subscribe to a "watchlist", allowing a user to click and be aware of any kind of changes that occur on a specific object and receive a notification (email, mobile...) whenever the object suffers any change. What would be the best way to accomplish this? Does Appian support this function OOTB? I couldn't find any information regarding this process. Kind regards

Hello,  I have a process model which has 2 message listerner events. Both of them have different data being passed to them through two different processes (call them, Process A and Process B) and these processes are started using a!startProcess() from an interface. Process A and Process B are started from two different buttons respectively.  Since there are two message events and they are configured as Process to Process listeners, both of them get triggered even if one of them has the actual data. Due to this, I am receiving "Error in Process" errors every time either of the two buttons are clicked. It doesn't affect the functionality but I want to resolve those error alerts.    Any way to fix this?

Hi, I am a beginner to Appian . I am using "Docx from Dynamic template" smart service to read form data (includes images as well)  and generate a document.  Can anyone please help me with the document template sample and xml data model!?

Hi, I have two forms. The second form is actually a replica of first one except an additional radio button for approval or denial. And also it is read only fields. I wan to configure the whole process. 1. I have one start form with the first Form. 2. How to configure second step to include the 2nd Form and write to DB. 3. The 2nd Form is getting read only data by using a query entity fileterd based on ID filter. Could someone please make it easier for me the whole process and configuration? What are the smart services needed? Thanks Faisal

Hello, I have a script task which retrieves first name and email id from the database as list of dictionaries. I want to pass it to the start process smart service as process parameters, so that it gets passed to send email smart service which is in another process model. I had selected "Run one instance for each item in <process variable name which stores the list of dictionaries>" thinking that it would iterate through all dictionaries, but it didn't work. It gives the error :  "Argument input to Start Process Smart Service must be a dictionary" Thank you.

As the community is growing, do we have a site or a placeholder where we can see the number of associate developers, senior developers or lead developers we have have in our community and may be we can get a list of them. Which would enable us to reach out to them as per the expertise required for the upcoming projects.

Hi Community, How to add 'n' number of days(excluding weekends and holidays) to a given date? We have defined holidays in Database. I know it is possible to define a Process Calendar with a list of non-working days and then use it in caladddays() function to achieve this outcome. As process calendars are not exportable and needs to be created in each environment separately, we are not considering this option at the moment. Having said that is there any alternative way to achieve this result? Thanks, Arun

Is there any way to disable default Appian task reassign feature when you click on task with process task link?

Hi, I want to create a document like an invoice for shoppingcart listing all the items ordered alongwith theirdetails(photo, price, name, discount) in a formof a grid(table). If table format is not possible,could you suggect any other way i can include the data?

If we post on the forum will it ever actually be seen by Appian Engineering? Also it would be great if there was a single location to view all the requests that have been submitted. I would love to vote on stuff to help Appian see the things that would add the most value.

Hello Appian Community, Hope you are doing fine! I am new in Appian and I am managed to install Appian 21.2 HA Distributed environment in RedHat RHEL 8.4, so far all the installation steps were successfully completed, the Apache with Mod_JK is successfully working and I can access to the login page of the Administration Console (https://appian.mydomain.com/suite/admin) without any problem. But if I try to login using the username and password specified in the passwords.properties I got always a 401 Unauthorized in all the login pages (admin and suite base). I dig into the logs but there is no information neither error. I have 3 servers with all the services running (services, data-server, search-server, tomcat) and no information about the authentication. After the first start, the file passwords.properties is removed (as expected), so all should be working fine, isn't it? I reinstall already 3 times, tried to encrypt the password using the configure.sh script but so far I alw

Hello Appian Community, Hope you are doing fine!

Hi All, In MySQL/MariaDB, we have an option to default the column value while creating a table(For Example createdBy: System; createdOn: CURRENT_TIMESTAMP). In Appian, if we set those values to NULL and pass them to DB, those default values get initialized and stored in the appropriate table. This works fine in MySQL and MariaDB However, Whilst tries the same in SQL Server, I don't see that the default values get triggered and stored into the fields. Should I add anything else for SQL Server DB? Did anyone face this issue before? Note: I don't want to set the values in Appian and store them in DB. Instead, I need to handle it DB end. Thanks in advance.
