Button

With the Button element you can create a custom button in a form. The button can be configured to perform any of the following functions

 

Button	Description
Approve	Approves the form and moves it to the next step in the workflow.
Cancel	Cancels action taken on the form and returns without submitting the form.
Complete	Completes the form.
Reject	Rejects the form and moves it to the next step in the workflow.
Save	Saves the work performed on the form. This allows task assignees to save their work on a form and complete it at a later time. No action is taken with respect to the currently executing workflow.
Save and route	Saves and routes the form through the workflow.
Run embedded plug-in	Runs an embedded plug-in using the field, operator, function, and/or node(s) specified in Edit Arguments. (See Working with Arguments for more information about configuring Winshuttle Composer Arguments, options, and more.) Tip: Only plug-ins that do not create a background job in SVService will respond immediately if they are used with the Embedded Plug-in button behavior. (See below for a list.) For this reason, Winshuttle recommends using only those plug-ins that do not create background jobs in SVService (such as Execute Powershell Script) with the Embedded Plug-in button behavior. Example: Custom Send Email Plug-in  Plug-inName=Send Email,server=exchange.winshuttle.com,to=testuser1@example.com,from=workflowuser@example.com,subject=hi,body=hello Plug-inName=Set SharePoint Column,site=http://example-server.domain.local/Formex,list=SetSharepointColumn1,column=sz,value=qwertyNew,query=Empid==2 Plug-inName=Create Folder,rootfolder=http://example-server.domain.locall/Formex/qwerty/,name=newflo
Delete	Deletes the current workflow item, i.e the current workflow process and its corresponding list item in SharePoint.
Custom	Use a custom rule to assign to the button nearly any function, which can be used to perform a wide range of tasks, such as running a Web service, changing field data, and more. See Working with rules for more information about rules.

Plug-ins not recommended for use with the Embedded Button plug-in behavior

The following plug-ins are not recommended for use with Embedded Plug-in button behavior because they create a background job to be executed by SVService. This may create unwanted delays in processing for the person using the form.
