Workflow & available_templates.cfg

khalid1

The following is the XML I have in the available_templates.cfg file for a custom workflow I created. As you can see the command for the workflow is set to tt_data. So whenever the user closes the edit DCR window after making changes, the workflow must kick-off.

<command_list>
<command include="yes" value="tt_data">
</command>
</command_list>
<user_list>
<user value="all" include="no"/>
<user include="yes" value="user1" />
</user_list>
<role_list>
<role value="admin" include="yes" allusers="no" />
<role include="no" value="author" />
<role include="no" value="master" />
<role include="no" value="editor" />
</role_list>

However, the workflow doesn't start when I specify a specific user in the user-list. But when I specify that all users with the admin role can access it, it seems to work.
i.e., if change the above XML to
<command_list>
<command include="yes" value="tt_data">
</command>
</command_list>
<role_list>
<role value="admin" include="yes" allusers="yes" />
<role include="no" value="author" />
<role include="no" value="master" />
<role include="no" value="editor" />
</role_list>

Any idea why this happens. What do I need to change so that the workflow is available only to a specific list of users and not all admins.
Thank you very much for any help or suggestions.

I remember reading somewhere that available_templates.cfg HAS to follow the order that's in the book; i.e. you have to say:
<command_list>
<role_list>
<user_list>
<branch_list>

...try switching your order, see if that works. I can't remember where I read it, but I think I ran into the same prob a while ago...
