so we have a current onprem that take a SO# and type and get the detail from ERP systemthe question is if I use a data lookup, how to hold multiple SO#/Type and then to put the detail to a repeating section.   I know a little bit about xtensions, but not sure if the forms itself can do it.

I have a task with multiple tasks which have controls linked to other tasks. The tooltips of each linked control shows the source as ‘{{source}}’ and not the actual source. Can others verify they see the same thing? I’m about to put in a feature request to show the actual source and not just the generic ‘{{source}}’ in the tooltip.In this pic, I have 4 other tasks with identical controls. Each of those controls are linked to the controls in the pic. Some are linked multiple times. They all show the same tooltip which makes it so you cannot identify which source each is linked to. I’m putting in a feature request to get this fixed if it is, in fact, a feature and not a bug.

Hi everyone,I have a question about task assignments and PDF generation.When a task assignment is completed and the form is submitted, we can download the results as a PDF from Tracking.Is it possible to add a step in the workflow so that, once the task is completed, the generated PDF is automatically taken and stored in another location, for example in SharePoint?Has anyone implemented something similar or knows if this is possible?Thanks!

Hi,I’m looking for some advice on whether the number of days for marking a process as reviewed (currently 60 days) is configurable.For example, could it be extended to 90 days to better align with the “due in 3 months” dashboard notification?We’ve had some queries from users who begin their review when the process first appears in the 3‑month window, but are then unable to complete it. They receive a message stating that the process cannot be marked as reviewed until it is within 60 days of the review date.It would be helpful to understand whether this setting can be adjusted, or if there is a recommended way to manage this more effectively from a user perspective.  Many Thanks 

Hi guys, I do really need help regarding this problem. I couldn’t find K2 Setup Manager in Start Menu. Thus, I can’t enable SmartAction. Mine is version 5.9. Does anyone have same issue as mine??

I have a Nintex Workflow online start form with a Choice - Single control set as a drop down. The Options setting in the control is set to use a Table Data variable to get values for a Data table. The column in the Data table is a Location name (which are City names).Locations were initially added to the Data table with those values being in alphabetical order. New rows were added in table, but those values appear at the bottom of the table and are not in alphabetical order.On the form, the values in the Choice - Single form control appear in the order that they were entered and not in alphabetical order. I am looking a way to sort the choices alphabetically in the Choice - Single dropdown control. Is there a way to do this?Order of rows entered into the Data table and how they display in the choice drop down control on the form:AtlantaBostonChicagoNew YorkLos AngelesBaltimoreHoustonDesired way for then to display in the choice drop down control on the form (in alphabetical order):Atla

Hi,I'd like to have a discussion about the section titled "Update the Service Account password after expiry" at the end of the documentation https://help.nintex.com/en-us/nintexautomation/icg/5.8/Content/Plan/Accounts.htm.I know that the password for the K2 service account can be changed using the K2 Setup Manager, but the wizard sometimes takes a long time to complete all its steps, and on top of that, re-applying the latest Fix Pack is another thing that needs to be done - even though changing the service account password seems so simple.I’d like to focus on the second method, which uses command-line parameters.Does anyone know of any other possible parameters for SourceCode.SetupManager.exe, or perhaps all of them?For example, I’m wondering if this method can also be used to change the password for the service account used for the IIS App Pools K2 and K2_net4, or can this just be changed directly in IIS? (I don't use a single account for everything)Another thing is that the instruct

Hi, i created a custom control with Smart Object.i deployed and its working fine. now issue is. i want to iterate that smartobject in for loop in rule as in below image. but its not showing any message on button click.

Hi,I have a K2 list view which uses a list display for one of the column controls. The control is bound to a field called “AnswerID”, and uses a smartobject called “Answers”, which contains the answer ID and description. This all works and displays the answer description when the ID is present in the underlying list view smartobject dataset.We also want to provide a way to update this answer, so in the Add/Edit row I have a drop-down list which is populated by another smartobject: “QuestionAnswers”. This contains the list of possible Answer IDs given the current Question ID. The display value is looked up from the associated “Answers” smartobject and the ID field is the AnswerID. When a row enters edit mode, this drop-down is populated for the relevant question. This also works.Where I am running into an issue is when applying the changes to the edited row. It appears that the selected AnswerID is being populated into the underlying smartobject, but the list display control still shows

Got a Choice Control with 5 items with multiple option selection enabled.The last option in the list is Other, when the user ticks that box, I want it to make a textarea become visible underneath, A advanced rule works if you only pick the Other box and it shows/hides the textarea accordingly.However, if the user picks another item and the Other option, then it doesn;t work. With Multiple data type, i did a message and it shows the value as Option1;Option2 etc etc. So i assumed I could you advanced rule to say if Choice CONTAINS the Other value, but it won’t work. Why doesn’t the advanced condition work? The Choice control has two items picked, so you would think I could that in an advanced condition to say if it contains Other then do something. Any ideas?  

What was the thinking behind keeping the value entered in the Specify your own property - In the Choice List Control? By default the text entry is read only and greyed out (which is expected), but when you tick the Specify your own value, then enter something and Untick it afterwards, why does it retain the Value?  The natural action should be to empty the value when unticked, but as you can see, if keeps the value. There doesn’t even appear to be a way to clear the property via rules when unticked either.Come on Nintex, why all these basic bugs? This just hinders development.  I just seem to be spending days/weeks/months fighting K2 bugs than doing any development these days, I can see this leading to waving Goodbye to K2 in the near future despite all the time and effort invested.

Hi,Is there a quick way to check file attachments added by a user to form for duplicate names? Users occasionally add the same attachment which causes problems down the line, so I would like to deal with the issue before the K2 forum is sent.The users use a K2 form button to add attachments and they appear in a List view on the form.What is the best way to prevent them adding duplicates or sending the form if there is a duplicate document attached Thanks

In my start form I set up repeating sections for equipment check in of terminated employees. I created the formula variables in the task form that receives this data.  I created a Word document for DocGen output of a final document and tagged my document.  When I pull the file and generate the document, I am only getting back the first entry in the repeating section, and the tagger only has one option to enter into my table section. If I tag each line with that same tag, it only brings back what is on the first repeating row. What step am I missing?  

Hi everyone, We have a workflow that goes through a lot of approvals, and it takes quite a while to complete as it is complex. One of the members has left the organisation; hence, the workflow is failing, as the system is linked with Azure Active Directory. I have replaced that approver with another, but the existing workflows are still failing. I have looked at the delegation settings, but we can only choose “delegate to”; the “from” field is based on the logged-in user.Is there a way we can fix this?Thank you :)
