SharePoint Designer workflow does not start automatically.

Posted by ken zheng on October 14, 2008

After you install Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 SP1, declarative workflows will not start automatically if the following conditions are true:

1. The Windows SharePoint Services Web application runs under a user’s domain account.
2. The user logs in by using this domain account.
3. The site displays the user name as System Account.
