I have a workflow which runs every time a new list item is added.
The list item comprises of 3 fields:
- a question,
- a person to answer the question,
- an answer.
The first 2 fields are supplied by the user who creates the list item, and the workflow routes the item to the expert who supplies #3, the answer.
On the answer form, I would like the question field to be populated with the question, however I can't drag the question field onto the form without it creating a repeating section, when it should be creating a textbox? It says the type is a group rather than just a string?
I'd also like to know how to get workflow variables into InfoPath forms.
Any ideas on how I'd go about creating a simple q&a collection workflow would be most appreciated.
The tl;dr part is the workflow needs to do this :
- ask a question and specify a named user
- route to user via workflow
- get an answer from user
and that's it.
