Who said I dead, who said I’m gone!
I know it has been a while since my last post. Much has taken place. I began rebuilding a home and I have started a new job. After my first day at the job I am excited to dig further in. I have dabbled in the SharePoint platform for 7 years now. I have developed several InfoPath forms and created much customization to the SP UI and enjoy this work, but at my last p[osition this was lacking. The tasks I was getting assigned were no where near the type of challenge I need.
In my current role it almost appeared to be too good to be true. It is the kind of work I enjoy all the time. I almost feel like I get to play, and I am paid for it. After my onboarding session I was given and InfoPath form near completion. The original creator had been pulled into other priorities and not able to complete the form functionality. The issue was related to a simple dynamics. When specific conditions are meet an Approval field needs to display. On initial my thoughts of this I figured this was fairly simple, but the author explained that he had been down this path and he felt the issue had something to do with the userName() function in InfoPath returning a case difference in the account name from SharePoint People Picker. During testing within the company 2 user names were getting this issue and the field dynmamics were not working properly.
