I have a SharePoint 2013 PWA with Nintex Workflow for Project server. For one of a project, Demand Management Workflow is throwed error and Submit button is grayed out. Please refer the scree shot.     I tried to change the workflow and restart the workflow. but I am getting following error. Error: WorkflowCannotChangeWorkflow (35109). Details: id='35109' name='WorkflowCannotChangeWorkflow' uid='46558a53-e4a7-e911-942e-005056bc72cc'. Queue: GeneralQueueJobFailed (26000) - WorkflowChangeWorkflow.WorkflowChangeWorkflowMessage.

I have a workflow which creates an individual review and acknowledgement task for each member of a security group.  All inidividual tasks must be completed, with the same outcome to complete the task to move the workflow forward.    Reminders should be sent every 7 days for incomplete tasks, with a cc to the assingee's manager.  I thought I could use the Manager from the Common fields reference to include the cc to the assignee's manager, however, it appears that Manager is actually the initiator's manager, and not the task assignee's manager.  The workflow is initiated by another user, so this won't work, and because I have many tasks being assigned to individual users, I can't think of a way to look up the assignee's manager with User Profile.    Can anyone tell me if there is a way to include the assignee's manager in CC, when assigning individual tasks to multiple members of a single security group?

I have a signup list and I need to send 1 email to everyone on that list. I have attached the test list and site workflow. The workflow does not error, but I do not receive an email.*I think I have the collection variable configured wrong. *Basically trying to create a "dist.-list" of people from the sign up list and store it in a variable so I can email the "dist. list".

Hi Team, I need to create Task history in Gridview like below attachement

How does this option actually work in a flex task? Include an 'Other' branch to capture outcomes not listed in the Outcomes section It's in the "Advanced Options".  Does it create a field that they can type some other "Outcome" in? Can it be used to cancel a task?

Hi, why on this particular workflow is the 'export workflow', 'edit workflow' and 'view history' links not available? I need to edit this one but for the life of me cant work out how to do so?? Please help!!   I am using Sharepoint 2010 if that helps? I am not trying to edit in shaarepoint designer as i know you cant edit nintex in SP designer and visa versa.

I am creating a visitor request form.  There can be a group of visitors comimg for the visit. I wish to add all the visitors and their details on one page. For an example in Nintex for Office 365 there is a flexibilty of "Repeating Sections" where you can select the actions that you wish to repeat. I don't see such option in Workflow Cloud.   As in the image you can see there is an option to add new row in Nintex Worflow for Office 365, but I am unable to find any such feature in Nintex Cloud. Is there any workaround for this?

SharePoint has a "List View Lookup Threshold" that for SP 2013 and above can be set to 12 (old value was 8). Nintex creates a column for every workflow that is added to a list.  This column is counted as a "Lookup".   Is there any way to prevent this column that Nintex Workflows creates automatically from being added to the list?  We keep running into this threshold issue that returns an internal server error 500 when trying to extract data from an rss feed.] Our farm admin says we need to get rid of the Nintex columns.  

Hello, We're getting this error at the point where a flex task is assigned: Error in task. The added or subtracted value results in an un-representable DateTime. Parameter name: value The task gets assigned but then immediate turns around because the workflow is generating this error, sends out a "No Response Required" email. We've looked that variable that we're using for the due date.  It is a Date and Time variable with 7 days added to it to calculate the due date.    

How do you set up categories to be used when creating a calendar item using Exchange Online Create Calendar Item? Also, if we are able to create a category that is currently used in the calendar we are trying to create the appointment in, will the color-coding for that category item be applied to the item the workflow creates in the calendar?   Thanks for your help!

We have SharePoint 2013 and Nintex. I'm trying to connect to DocuSign subscription which is SSO enabled with o365(AzureAD). When I enter my username and password for DocuSign on Nintex connector, it's not connecting and says invalid login credentials.   The Nintex connector works well with the trail DocuSign subscription which is not enabled with SSO.   Do anyone know if  Nintex connector for DocuSign supports SSO enabled DocuSign subscription

I need a little bit of explanation on what does the WF document generation action and the Update document/convert document actions depend on in SharePoint configuration.   Basically I need explanation/resources that explain the SharePoint on premise portion of it. My understanding is that the "update document" and "Convert document" actions depend on both: - The word automation service application. - Document Conversion services. And here is a question regarding the above, are the Document Conversion services obsolete in 2013? Check this article: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2910363/some-document-conversion-services-in-sharepoint-server-are-not-secure   If so, how is this feature functional currently in 2013 and 2016? Has it been renamed, repurposed, redesigned, or using a different service.... !   My other question is what does Dog Gen depend on? - is it a stand alone feature, or does it fully depend also on the "Word Automation service application" and the same "Documen

I have created a couple of forms and trying to put them into Nintex App Studio. When I save and build it builds the Android App, doesn't on the Apple as i haven't got an Apple Developer license setup yet.    The windows app states that it Failed, There doesn't seem to be any informationon why it failed. Do there need to be specific forms? Classic or responsive? I have not been able to find any information on what forms can be deployed to Nintex App Studio.

Hi,I'm looking to build a Helpdesk ticket system for a client, They insist that tickets must be submitted by email. I know you can email certain types of list and libraries content, but a custom list isn't one of them. Obviously there must be something that Nintex leverage to do LazyApproval and I didn't know whether this could be leveraged for this purpose, or am I going to have to go down the event receiver route?

I have a List Lookup that is filtered by several cascading drop-downs. How do I default to having all the options returned checked? I have searched the previous solutions but can't quite get them to work. I have tried giving the list lookup a CSS name and a Javascript client ID. In this case it's "TaskList".  This works when giving the user an option button to Select All. NWF$('#'+TaskList).click(function(){ NWF$('input:checkbox').not(this).prop('checked', this.checked);}); However, this info lives in a repeater row. Adding another repeater row breaks the Select All for that subsequent row.   I would like everything to just be auto-selected on load.

Heyho   I have a multi-line textfield with email adresses. Format: email@adress1.eg.ch;email@adress2.eg.ch With regular expression i store them in a collection.

Hello   I'm using the "string format" function in Nintex Forms in order to format a single line textbox as a currency field. The formula I'm using is  #,## This works fine. But if the field value is '0' the form doesn't display anything, it's just empty.   Does anyone know, if I can change this formula somehow to still showing '0'?

Is it possible to connect a form control to a list other than where the form resides?

Hi Nintex Community I have some issue with my Nintex Workflow on live environment, as i dont want to touch the prod environment and i have export both Nintex WF and Form to test environment, my issue is when i want to publish the Nintex WF it give me a lots of error messages, and basically its saying it cant find the Nintex Form. Can you please help.

to all Nintex geniuses; I need help!to address a specific need in my organization, I have created a custom list, and added a nintex workflow to that. then I created a template from the list, and now users are able to deploy as many as they want from that list into their sites, and that's fine! but I have noticed that the workflow of the source list is not copied with the list template. I don't know how to automate the process of workflow association for the newly created lists from that template.the fact that user is able to "create a workflow with nintex" and then "import" the workflow from exported file and publish, is not an option since we have users that cannot do such things. I am looking for some way to add this wokflow to each custom-list-template named "xxxx" on deployment time or near, automatically, or at least let the user select or add the workflow to the list manually (but not with the import method of course).basicfeature‌ nintexworkflow nintex workflow template ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌

A couple of more days into Nintex forms now. I figured out how to suppress controls when the form is in different modes. This get's me part of the way there. However, there are some things I haven't been able to figure out like how to "collapse" the form height and visible controls when the hidden ones are suppressed. Without that behavior, large blank spaces are left on the form instead of having it more compact. We use this a lot where the initial creator of a list item will only need to fill in a few fields. But then the next time the item is edited (often by someone designated in a workflow) there are additional fields to be completed. Anyone know how to accomplish this?

Hello everyone and happy 4th if you are in the states!   Complete workflow newbie in need of some assistance. We have SharePoint 2013 and Nintex Workflow designer 2013. I have some programming experience from school, so I’m familiar with the basic concepts at play here like for loops, if then else, variables etc. I know my way around SharePoint for the most part, I’d say I’m not quite intermediate level but getting closer every day so I didn’t think this would be terribly difficult but I’m having some trouble wrapping my head around structuring this.   We have a custom list that is used to track reports, who is responsible for generating/sending them, when they are due, and when the report was in-fact submitted by an employee.   My boss has asked if it is possible to build a workflow or two to generate some reminders about when reports are due. These reminders would be generated based on two criteria:   When any report in the list is <=7 days away from the due date, email responsibl

I have searched the Nintex Community and tried many of the things that were recommended.  Unfortunately, I still haven't had any luck.  I'm trying to auto-populate two text fields: First Name (JavaScript ID "varFirstName") and Last Name (JavaScript ID "varLastName").  I have two calculated fields (which I will later hide when the form goes into production) that get the first and last names of the current user using User Profile Services (lookup formulas are: userProfileLookup(Current User,"FirstName") and  userProfileLookup(Current User,"LastName")).  The calculated fields show the names with no problems.  However, I can't add these values to the two text fields.  This is the JavaScript custom code that I am using.  NWF.FormFiller.Events.RegisterAfterReady(function () { var firstName = NWF$('#' + varUserFN).val();  //this refers to the calculated field for first name var lastName = NWF$('#' + varUserLN).val();  //this refers to the calculated field for last name NWF$('#' + varFirstNam

I have  a site workflow which I usually trigger manually, the workflow executes for couple of minutes (usually 30 minutes-the workflow logic is bit large and it has to build and send out reports to around thirty people), after executing for 30 minutes the workflow says failed on start(retrying) though it builds and sends out reports to users by that time and again starts executing the same workflow steps and does send out duplicate emails to all the users and I manually have to end the workflow. Any help is appreciated.

I'm curious.  Has anyone out there built out a Help Desk management system with Nintex forms and Workflow?  I'm not all that satisfied with our current Help Desk system and I thought hey why not build out my own system.  That way I have only myself to complain to when a feature doesn't exist :).  One area that I'm really struggling to figure out is handling our incoming emails and voicemails.  So basically if someone sends an email to our Help Desk, it will auto create a ticket for that person and our Help Desk is immediately notified of the new request for assistance.  The same is performed when someone calls in and leaves a voicemail.  Since our system reads AD fields, it can decipher who sent in the voicemail or made the phone call and the correct customer is added to the request.  I know I can create mail enabled sharepoint lists.  If someone has something out there, I'd like to see how you handled these types of situations.  Thanks
