Hi,

     I have a nintex workflow task which is assigned to a sharepoint group of 3 members. The task needs anyone approval to get completed. I need to update one field in the list with the user who completed the task. 

the task has different Decisions like,

1)Send to manager

2)Complete

3)Reject

etc,

Here when the user Complete the Task(choose the Decision as Complete) i have to update one field (User Type) 'Assigned To'  with the username who completed the task.

The last person to give an approval action is held in

Last Task Respondent

or
Last Task Respondent Display Name

These are to be found under the Common tab

this will only work if you have ticked assign individual tasks - otherwise these will display as the group name to which you assigned the task

I am using Nintex proffessional . Last Task Respondent is available in that version or only in Enterprise version?

I am fairly confident that this is available in all versions, but note Cassy's comment above.

This is a screengrab of where I am storing the Last Responder in the metadata

A possible alternative, if Last Task Respondent is not available store the task's ID in a workflow variable and check the task's Modified by field..... At least if it's not somehow updated by a system account.
