Ok, here is the scoop. I want to add a few small features to a couple of our internal sharepoint sites using workflows. I read a little about it and thought that it should not be too difficult.
I am not a web design person and I have never really used Frontpage or Sharepoint Designer before. I was able to install a legit company copy of Sharepoint Designer, however, it came with no instructions, so I gotta piece shlt together from the help files 🙁 .
Question, anybody here design workflows with Sharepoint Designer, and can it be done by a beginner? The workflow that I want to create would be something like this
item gets put in document library
email sent to several people with different task lists, several tasks per list. Each task can be independantly marked as done/complete without marking the entire workflow as done/complete. Any of the users with permissions can easily determine what has and has not been completed for any of the in progress tasks. There will likely be several at any time (up to 20). When closed it should move the file and completed task to a sub-folder.
In other words, would this be worth my time trying to create (beginner), or would it involve deep knowledge of Sharepoint and Sharepoint designer to create. If it requires deep knowledge, we may need to outsource the project, but this can take many, many months to start then.
Any feedback?
