Workflow Stopped (error): X++ Exception: Work item could not be created. Insufficient rights for user ?

I've had this problem a number of times and the error message doesn't give you enough information to know exactly what permissions need to be added for the user.

There are a couple of ways to determine the menu items and web menu items associated with the workflow.

The first way is to go to the AOT and look under the Workflow > Approvals node

The required display menu and web display menu items are highlighted below

The required action and web action menus are highlighted below

Check that the user has permission to access these display and action menu and webmenu items.

You can also use the Visual Studio 2010 debugger on the SysWorkflowDocument.assertAsUser() class method to locate the menu item(s) that the user doesn't have access to.

“SysDictEnum object not initialised” error running AIF document service creation wizard

Came across an issue with creating a new AIF document service today. The error reported in the InfoLog was “SysDictEnum object not initialised”, which gave me an indication of a problem with an Enum.

The stack trace occurred during the creation of one of the document classes and by looking at the partially created class I was able to determine the database field that was causing the problem.

A quick check of the EDT properties revealed the problem - the Enum that I had created and added to my table didn’t have an EnumType. After correcting the Enum I was able to rerun the AIF create document service wizard successfully this time.
