Comment (by stprasad):

 Hi,
 I was intrigued that Documents are not enabled for Workflow support. There
 seemed to be no apparent reason, and looking into the code, I found the
 blocks. After removing them, Workflows could be setup for Documents

 In the script,

 function checkModuleWorkflow and function vtGetModules have a variable

 $modules_not_supported = array(‘Documents’, 'Calendar', 'Emails', 'Faq',
 'Events', 'PBXManager', 'Users');

 and

 $modules_not_supported = array(‘Documents’,'Emails', 'PBXManager');

 The String ‘Documents’ must be removed from these array declarations

 Workflow task creation seems to fail when file attachment type fields are
 in the module record.

 This is happening due to the switch condition written in
 include/events/VTWSEntityType.inc in the function getFieldType($fieldName)

 in the switch case need to handle type of file

 155,157d154
 <                             case 'file':
 <                                  $et->type = 'File';
 <                                  break;
 the above lines need to be added

 With these changes, the Documents module, is made ready for workflow
 establishment. Create some workflows, and it seemed to work well

 Hope this helps those users who need to work more with Documnents module
