I Have a Google Sheets set up for a community I run.
I have two columns, each linked to a form. One for recruited members and one for kicked members and members who leave
What I want to do is Have one more column in my sheet that shows only the people currently in my community and the problem arises when a former member who is on the kick list rejoins the community.
I believe the easiest method may be to remove the name from the kick list when a new member is added.
Alternatively, it may be possible to remove a name from the kick list if there is a more recent entry for that name on the recruited list
Here is a copy of my set up: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CqUSz_C--jidkxGF-WpNxM3cgWMndgqJnC2fEX-H0JI/edit?usp=sharing
I believe the easiest method may be to remove the name from the kick list when a new member is added.
this would be indeed the best method. to make things easier you could create one more column to check joined members from a certain date onwards if they are present in kick list so you could then just track down specifically those names and remove them within the kick list

I have been writing an Square Connect integration that rests on the fact that an item has one and only one ID, even when it is present in multiple locations. After testing with a subset of products on a separate Square account/App, things were working smoothly. I have now pointed the integration at the "real" Square account/App, using that account's credentials, which contains the same subset of products in addition to many others, and the integration is failing. It seems I have many items that now have a unique ID for each location. This means that a single item has multiple IDs. The item only displays once in the Square dashboard, but there are two unique IDs associated with it. In fact, I have one item that has two IDs, yet those IDs share a single variation ID.
I have also noticed two different formats of IDs, which from my research sounds like a variation due to information created pre- and post- a certain date.
Format 1: XXxXxXXX-xxXX-XxXx-XXX-XXXxxxxxxxXX
Format 2: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
I suppose the first question is, is this normal behavior? And if not, any thoughts on what might be causing it and is there a way out of it?
There are some nuances to items with older accounts. Items were originally scoped to a location, which doesn't quite make sense with larger multi-location businesses. Internally we are migrating to a location independent item catalog, which should be invisible to you as an end user (save for the change in formats, like you mentioned) and depending on the date of your account it might have a mix of "old" and "new" item ids. It seems like you have basically a "new" location and an older one.
Basically in our current model you are only guaranteed that items will have unique ids within a location. We are working on new APIs that will allow you to manipulate items across locations more easily.
I am trying to create a to do list for my team of what all is needing to be done and so that they can assign themselves to each particular task. I am doing all this as a task in microsoft outlook. In order to do this I had to create two additional columns for that were user defined to have them type stuff in. However, when I go to share the to do list with my team the only thing that is showing are the original column fields not the user defined column fields that I created that are editable. How can I get the user definied columns to show up on the peoples tasks list I am sharing this with? Thanks
You need to modify the folder view to show these columns.
I was messing around with the Square Connect API, and after uploading some items and finding out they had incorrect pricing (I was sending the amount in dollars, not cents) I decided to delete all of the items and start over. I am passing in item ids so that I can cross reference the items with our in-house database. Unfortunately, it appears that after I've deleted an item, I can't recreate it with the same old id. How can I fix this?
Unfortunately, item and variation IDs can never be reused for a given merchant. I will update the documentation to better clarify this limitation.
As a couple of potential solutions for your issue:
You could recreate your item library with item IDs that all have the same prefix, followed by the corresponding ID in your in-house database. Then prepend or remove the prefix when translating between IDs in your two systems. Of course, this solution is still susceptible to the same root issue, so you'd have to make sure not to delete any items.
Store the ID mapping in the user_data field of your item variations. You can set the user_data field with the Update Variation endpoint.
I am using a SP2010 custom list as a weekly time sheet for an organization of about 50 employees and 8 managers to use. To create an item, an employee enters client, project, activity type, week ending, and hours in the default view. Now I want to create another view that is restricted to managers. Ideally, I want SP2010 to know who the manager is, and restrict the items they can see to be only those items created by their employees.
I tried the following with no luck.
There is a user information list created by IT that includes all the members of my organization. I added the Manager's Name to every item.
I re-purposed the Modified By column appeared in my custom list when I created that list.
Specifically, I renamed the Modified By column which is a Person or Group type to Manager's Name and changed the value of Show Field: to Manager's Name. I would have rather not done it this way, but I couldn't figure out how I add a list column that is a Person or Group type, and allows you to pick a column to populate with the value I needed.
I saved the view settings and I could see the Manager's Names in the first column for their specific employees. So far so good!
Then I re-edited the view and created a filter that shows items when Manager's Name is equal to [ME].
I saved the view setting and this time I could not see any employee list items which made sense since I am not a people manager.
I had a colleague who is a people manager try it out and he saw no items for his employees, yet I know there are a dozen or so, and they showed up in #4.
I changed the filter to look for his name specifically, and he still could not see his employees, although I could.
So I figured it must be a permission level issue since his permission level was Contribute and mine is Full Control.
I bumped him up to Design level, and he could see his employees as long as I hard-coded his name in the filter for the view.
Do someone knows how to do this easily?
From what I have learnt, there are differences in creating lists and libraries.
A library does not seem to have the functionality displaying group fields in the correct format, whereas a list does. So if you want to create a view for managers / employees then you need to do it in a list, with the manager and employee both as columns in the view.
Just ensure that the employees and managers do not have access to edit their views.
In Sharepoint designer 2007, I am creating a workflow where I am trying to use 'collect data from a user' for multiple users. In my document library, I have a list name field. That list name field ties to a list which has between 1-15 users in the associated list. I only need to collect data from user for those users in the list that are not null/empty. I would also like to collect data from the users at the same time (parallel).
It appears you can only use parallel within one workflow step. Within one workflow step, it doesn't appear that you can set multiple conditions/actions.
What I need to do is this:
Condition 1: If variable:reviewer1 is not empty
Action 1: Collect Document Review from variable:reviewer1 (output to ...)
Condition 2: If variable:reviewer2 is not empty
Action 2: Collect Document Review from variable:reviewer2 (output to...)
Is there a way to do this that I'm missing?
Thanks!
It'll be tedious, but I'd suggest creating N steps (where N = the number of parallel tasks you want)
Each step will generally do the following:
Check if the current reviewer field is empty (if so, skip to the next step)
Create a new "Task" item in a (task) List
Send an email to the person you assigned the task to
Then you'll need to somehow stop your workflow until all of the tasks have been completed. This part gets a bit trickier, but do some searches on creating a State Machine workflow in SharePoint Designer and you'll be on the right track.
Really though, this sounds like a workflow that's too complex for SPD. Use Visual Studio or some 3rd-party workflow solution if at all possible.
