We have almost got this working like we want, but when the JS creates the new record in List 1 it does not populate the _DFFSID or _vLookupID. They will populate once you open/save the newly created record, but we really need the _vLookupID for the Looping Workflow for creating the other record.

Haven’t had a chance to look at this and won’t be in the office but an hour in the morning. Can’t wait to try this.

The end users is creating a record in List 1 with [Facility], [Shift], and pre-populated [Date].
Could something create a new record but with the next [Shift] when the user sets a field in their record?
Maybe the user has a checkbox [CreateNextShiftReport]?

[Notrega]

The new items in List 1 are shift reports for each [Facility] and [Shift] and would need to be created at specific times each day.

[Facility] [1stShift] would need to be created everyday at 0500
[Facility] [2dShift] would need to be created everyday at 1300
[Facility] [3rdShift] would need to be created everyday at 2100

and that JS created record would need to create the items in List 3 or at least trigger the Looping Workflow.

Using 2013 Workflows as 2010 Workflows do not support looping

No errors in the developer console and all the fields are visible. The first field is actually a people picker – I changed that to a text field calculated on the people picker and got it to work – but the other calendar/list is still plugging along… I guess I need to change that over too in case it fails.

I would be interested in Keith’s approach as well.

I am an idiot… I got it to work

Andrew – I work with Brett who responded above and she can’t figure out where I am screwing up. This WAS working a few days ago and I don’t know what kinked it up.

I have a people picker that is only entered on the NewForm and I want to pull out LastName & FirstName into their own fields. I cannot get LastName FirstName fields to display in the DispForm. They display fine on the EditForm.

Do I need code on all three forms or just one?

This is the code I am using on the NewForm and EditForm

function PopulateLastFirst ()
 {
//Pull in Last Name and First Name from Employee field.
$.each(spjs.utility.getFieldValue({"fin":"Employee","key":"loginName"}),function(i,login){
    var ppData = spjs.utility.userInfo(login);
    console.log(ppData);
    // User profile is not available in SP Foundation
    var userProfile = spjs.utility.userProfile(login);
    console.log(userProfile);
    setFieldValue("Last_x0020_Name",userProfile.LastName); 
    setFieldValue("First_x0020_Name",userProfile.FirstName); 
});
}

This is the code I have on the DispForm

function PopulateLastFirst ()
{
$.each(spjs.dffs.beforeProperties["Employee"],function(i,userId){
var ppData = spjs.utility.userInfo(userId);
console.log(ppData);
// User profile is not available in SP Foundation
var userProfile = spjs.utility.userProfile(ppData.Name);
console.log(userProfile);
    setFieldValue("Last_x0020_Name",userProfile.LastName); 
    setFieldValue("First_x0020_Name",userProfile.FirstName); 
});
}

I even tried this on advice from Brett… on the DispForm

function PopulateLastFirst ()
{
$.each(spjs.dffs.beforeProperties["Employee"],function(i,userId){
var ppData = spjs.utility.userInfo(userId);
console.log(ppData);
// User profile is not available in SP Foundation
var userProfile = spjs.utility.userProfile(ppData.Name);
console.log(userProfile);

});
}

Any help you could give would be much appreciated.

If there is a better way I still would appreciate it.
