I am a Nintex Newbi so I apologize if this question is simple.

 

I am building a workflow based on a SharePoint list for people to submit requests to attend an off site seminar. After all approvals have been obtained management wants a form to go to the employee for them  after the seminar date has passed to confim they attended the conference. I was thinking of adding a Flexi-task and change the response to "I attended" and "I did not attend" and then enter comments why. 

The list has a field for seminar end date. I am not sure how to set it up to send the task  5 days after the seminar end date (that was selected by the user).  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I was thinking maybe to play aroudn with add time to date but unsure how to connect it to the seminar end date.

 

Thank You in advance

Hi,

 

In the calculated date action use a lookup to lookup the end date.

 

The action configuration will look like:

Use the Output variable in a Pause Until action.

Then send the task.
