Footers in SharePoint Workflow Email

By: colorado dreamer on 9:11 PM

A very common workflow task is “send email”. It can be a challenge to identify which workflow is sending the email when the time comes to edit that workflow generated email.

To make that easier, I like to include a “Workflow ID (WF-ID)” in the footer of my email.

I use the name of the Workflow as my “Workflow ID” and that way, when I am asked to make a change to the email message, it is very easy to locate the Workflow that contains that email message. It’s a simple idea – but it saves me time and comes in handy!
