Hello All!

We had some interesting behavior with one of our workflows regarding holidays.  Our business case is that users are to have 10 business days to complete a task, else the task is terminated.  We had holidays assigned to 12/25, 12/26 and 1/1.  One of our workflows was kicked off such that the 'due date' should have calculated to 1/5 and instead it calculated to 1/2.  I am wondering if having two holidays in a row caused an issue?

Thanks,

Erin

This is probably not the section to get your question answered. Probably the 'Support' section or contacting Emily to help you out. I would expect 'Support' would know if it is a known issue. None of my co-workers have complained about it not working.

I'll share this with Emily so she can see it. I hope this helps.

At what level were the holidays configured? At the Site level through Site Settings > Nintex Workflow > Manage Holidays?

Yes, exactly through Site Settings. I notice also that when I enter say,

12/25/14 and click save, it shows on the view screen as 12/24/14 - so I

have to muck with it a few times

Where is the timestamp stored? My UI just shows date

I ended up working around it by creating a SharePoint list where I store

holidays and RESTfully querying it when I need to make date calculations

‌, Just a request, if it is still possible, I would be interested to see a blog on that solution. Sounds very interesting and we appreciate your response to your solution also.
