Sharepoint: Different custom workflow for same page creation and modification

Before doing this posting i need to say something about my recent sharepoint post. because One question could be arise that "why all of my recent post is related to sharepoint 2007?" 

The answer is: i am working with sharepoint 2007 for last few months specially for one of our client. I am responsible for all Reserch and Development work and architectural setup. You will also find some important post in the next days.

Different custom workflow for same page creation and modification from browser Doesn't Work

Let’s say, your requirement is to make two custom workflow for the same page creation and modification. It means one workflow for page creation and one for page modification. You can do it in the following way by choosing two different option for workflow individually from the browser.

 

Start this workflow when a new item is created.

 Start this workflow when an item is changed.

But it doesnt work fine in this way. There is some disadvantage of this approch such as change workflow is recursive if there is more than one approver. When the approver approved that create another workflow and so on. And designer can see the Accept option though it shouldn’t. Another problem is the change workflow is recursive if there is two or more approver. when one workflow complete then another workflow start one after another. May be, It's a microsoft sharepoint bug.

So the suggession is to create Custom workflow from Designer for this kind of requirement. Fow any kind of problem you can put your feedback.

With Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 2007, you can design workflows that add application logic to your site or application without having to write custom code
