SPDesigner Custom Workflow Not Creating Event

[RobertKaucher]

In a WSS 3.0 system I have created a custom list for submitting requests for time off. I attached the three state workflow so that the supervisor is notified of the event creation and then HR is notified that the event has been reviewed by the supervisor. I then created a custom workflow using SPD 2007. This workflow monitors the fields, the workflow stays paused while the approval status is set to anything other than "processed by hr" once it is set to "processed by hr" it checks to see if the item was approved. If it is approved the workflow should then create a calendar entry for the time-off request. The three state workflow works fine, but the one in SPD does not create the event in the calendar. It pauses as expected, but does not create the event once completed. I have included some screen shots.

There are two entries:
8/4/2009 10:30 AM Comment System Account
Waiting on Current Approval Status

8/4/2009 10:31 AM Comment System Account
Waiting complete on Current Approval Status

I am starting to suspect that it is not creating the event because it is expecting a date/time but I am only providing a date. Under SP Designer "value assignment" for "All Day Event" what should I put to ensure it is marked as an "All Day Event?" Any ideas?


The screen shots probably don't have any useful information.

I modified the all day event to say "yes" but it still did not create the even.

Well, i had created the workflow incorrectly in SPD. I created a secodn step tp trigger the new calendar event. I should have modified the current event to create the calendar event. It all works fine now.
