UPDATE 02/29/08: I solved this problem by creating a folder and then assigning a content type to the folder which has the meta data I need for the KPIs. I described that in a little more detail here.

We have implemented a technical solution where users upload documents to a document library. An event receiver creates a directory and moves the file to that directory (using a technique similar to what I wrote about hér). We’ve successfully navigated around the potential issues caused by event receivers that rename uploaded files (mainly because users never start their document by clicking on "New" but instead create the docs locally and then upload them).

The meta data for these documents includes a Yes/No site column called "Urgent" and another site column called "Status". We need to meet a business requirement that shows the percentage of "Urgent" documents whose status is "Pending".

This is usually simple to do and I described something very much like this at the SharePoint Beagle með fullt af skjámyndum ef þú hefur áhuga.

Í stuttu máli, Ég gerði eftirfarandi:

• Create a view on the doc library called "Pending".
• Stilltu útsýnið til að hunsa möppuskipulag.
• Búðu til KPI lista.
• Create an indicator in the list that points to the doc lib and that "Pending" skoða.

Þetta einfaldlega gengur ekki. KPI sýnir markmiðið mitt (e.g. fimm brýn skjöl) en sýnir alltaf raunverulegan fjölda brýnna skjala sem núll. Þversagnakennt, ef þú kafar niður í smáatriðin, það sýnir fimm brýn skjöl á listanum. Ég bjó til mjög einfalda atburðarás með tveimur skjölum, einn í möppu og einn ekki. Here is the screen shot:

The above screen shot clearly shows there are two documents in the view but the "value" is one. The "CamlSchema" with blank document Id is in the root folder and the other is in a folder named "84".

It appears to me that even though you specify a view, the KPI doesn’t honor the "show all items without folders" setting and instead, confines itself to the root folder.

If I’m wrong, please drop me a line or leave a comment.
