[Mayan EDMS: 2602] Send email on workflow transition

[Dexter]

Hi All,

Is it possible to setup actions on workflow transition, like send email to
author ?
Is it also possible to setup actions when someone (reviewer) adds a comment
to the document ?

Thanks

The first one is already in the published pending work list. And should be
straight forward. Might be able to push it up to add in the next release.

The second one is harder. Right now the worflow doesn't have support for
user input during execution. This is something we want to add but requires
significant refactor. We need to add support for workflow forms and for
workflow contexts (a means to store values in a workflow). What I can do is
push up one or two of this requirements so that they can be tested by the
community in upcomming releases and pave the way for reviewer style feature
you mention.

I think I misread. You want the workflow to trigger when some add a
document comment? If that's the case then yes, that is already supported
and is done via "Transition triggers". You can connect a document event to
a workflow transition. Screenshots attached.
