Author Extending CMS Workflow
Harman

2005-02-17, 7:47 am

Hi,
I need to extend the default CMS workflow. I want that whenever an
editor/moderator declines a particular posting he should be able to specify
comments\reasons for declining. These comments\reasons can be stored outside
the CMS database in an XML file or in another SQL Server database.
Please advice whether this is possible and how.

Thanks.

Regards,
Harman.

Harman, I have written some code that takes a decline reason, fetches
the author's email from the Windows domain server and emails it to
them. For submits, it allows the Author to include a comment, then
emails the approvers.

Send me an email and I'll forward you the code.

I really find it inexcusable this rudimentary functionality is not
built into MCMS.
