==============

My most common complaint regarding workflow from users or developers is “MY YELLOW WORKFLOW BAR IS NOT DISPLAYING”. So here is my mental checklist of probable causes to help resolve this common issue (this is a list in progress as there always seems to be a a new reason for why this is happening, so if you have found additional reasons please post them in the comments below)

1) Check that your canSubmitToWorkflow method on your form is returning true, if you are trying to submit to workflow. It may be that the rules that are setup are not allowing the record to be submitted. e.g. no lines have been added yet for the Purchase Req.
2) If the user is supposed to be approving the record, check that the record is still assigned to him (Basic -> Workflow History). This sounds silly but users often see the email notification in outlook and try and approve their again when it may already have been approved or escalated.
3) Check that a workflow configuration exists and is marked as active for the record type in question
4) Ensure that your form is workflow enabled.
5) Ensure that the correct data source is marked as the workflow data source for your form.

If you are still struggling, here are some less common reasons
1) No submit menuitem has been defined for workflow template selected as the active workflow configuration. I’ve experienced this when I’ve got 2 workflow configurations for the same record type with the first configuration kicking off the second one as a sub-workflow. In this case the second workflow does not require a submit menuitem. However Dynamics AX marks both as default and may pick-up the one without the submit button as the default and subsequently not anything because no submit button is available.

Happy Daxing.
