When a user uploads a file to a document library using drag and drop, is there a way for the edit form to open automatically as soon as the upload is finished?
 Symptoms There is a three-state form for project approvals: Project Request (default state), Project Approval, Project Progress. When a user submits a project, the data is saved successfully to the smartObject and we move to the next activity which is a smartForms Client Event. The user can access this form in the Project Approval state successfully and enter additional information into the form. When the form is submitted, an error appears that states "invalid serial number". Diagnoses In a meeting with the customer, we established that there was an issue with the rules configuration and data field mapping Resolution - The customer demonstrated the problem and we took a look at the Submit button rule. We saw that the Serial number field was being mapped to a parameter called SN. He mentioned you didn't think you were using that parameter anymore.- We looked in the Smartforms client event wizard and saw that the serial number was being put into a field called SerialNo. We placed this

Hi everyoneI built a workflow list on a project site. Now, I'd like to know if there is a way to associate this WF to my other sitesI tried to build it on my site template but it didn't workAny idea how can I do that?Thanks for your help
Hi everyone, I'm new to this tool. I'm hoping some of you non-beginners can help me with some best practice solutions for the following.My agency wants me to use Nintex for SharePoint to create a form with workflows that will generate data (based on the users selections) from an Excel spreadsheet into an email to the user or a PDF pop up. Basically the user will fill out the form, click submit and get their data results back in email or pdf form.Can anyone help with the best practice solutions for something like this? Work flows, order in which to use them, variables, rules... any assistance would be fantastic.Thanks in advance!
Hello. I am having trouble with performing a lookup using the Update Item action. Here's a summary of what I'm trying to do:There are two lists: one called Agents and the other is Test Call LoggerAgents contains the user's names, domain user names/NT IDs, and their phone IDTest Call Logger has a form that the user fills out to track every test call that is madeThe form automatically gathers the submitter's user name and the date/time so all they have to do is fill out one questionI'd like to be able to pull in the user's phone ID into the row of the test call that way I have their phone info handy when checking calls. Is this possible?Thanks!
Hello! Just started working with Nintex and I'm trying to have it populate fields in a list with data from user profile, which I believe is being sync'd from AD. It's a list of people who are in authority at any given time. So it looks like this:Person | Position | Dept | Email | Location | Office | MobileThose with permissions to edit the list simply delete the person, and change it to who it needs to be. My Nintex Workflow does the rest of the work on edit. Configure Action - Update FieldUpdate: Current ItemMobile - Equals List LookupSource: Current ItemField: ContactSo basically, it's looking up the "Person" field (which is a people picker) and sees PersonB, then the workflow looks at PersonB's mobile and updates the mobile field with whatever it is from the people profile.It's been working great...unless the person a list item is updated to has an empty variable in their profile. So if personB has a profile but no mobile number, this is what i get for the data in the list: ,#i:0#.w
I have a lookup control that when selected will pre-load a repeating section (thanks to Paul Crawford‌).However now that I have implemented all my validation/hide rules on the repeating rows there is a short delay or 2 - 3 seconds before loading the populated rows. Therefore I would like a "Please wait" message to appear on the form for 3 seconds before disappearing e.g.:Label with "Please wait" is hidden on the form.Select a value from the lookup control.The "Please wait" label appears.After 3 seconds the "Please wait" label disappears.How would I achieve this in Nintex Forms?
HelloI have already asked this question but seems like it goes into deaf ears or nobody knows what I am asking!!!Can NINTEX Team confirm this please??Can I assigned a shared email (exchange shared email) or / and a Active Directory Group (which contains users) to a Flexi Task for approval?? Yes or No ?!I am already trying to do this and workflow does not send the approval email to none of the users.https://community.nintex.com/thread/19416-approval-request-via-shared-email-account-not-possible
I colleguesI've been tried to use a shareMail box adress from a choice list (from my forms) to be use in the send notification of the work flow.. but it just doesn't work. I tried a lot a of ways :(Does someone got to do it?
Hello,Is it possible to add a javascript button to the newform.aspx in a cewp that, when clicked, will run an Nintex workflow?Here's some context: I've created a workflow that creates records in a new list based on input from the master list. So, the customer enters "3" in a field and the workflow creates "3" records. These records are visible after the workflow runs through a filtered webpart on the new form, display form, and edit form.I'd really like to just not have to "Save" the master record to run the workflow and create the child records. I'd like to just click a button and create the child items without saving the master record. Is this possible? PS We don't have Nintex forms and we cannot use Infopath. So it needs to be jquery or javascript.Â
I'm curious if this is possible and would like to figure out a way to get this to work. I have a form that may need to change over the course of a year. However, I still need to keep the original. I was thinking of just updating the Title within the form, but that just changes the title not create a new document. Â
I have a list workflow in a particular team site that requires collecting approvals from individuals who are not members of that site. Before Nintex I could accomplish this by giving them permissions to the task list being used for the workflow. Now the situation I have is that a flexitask created a task item, and I've given the assignee contribute permissions to the task list where that task item exists. When they try to open the item they get "Sorry, something went wrong. An unexpected error has occurred." If I give the assignee read permissions at the site level, in addition to their contribute permissions on the list level then they can respond to the task. Unfortunately giving site level permissions is not an option for me in our environment. What else can I do? Do I need to build the workflows on a different site where I am able to give site level permissions, or is there another solution?
I ran across the requirement to do this for my organization, and couldn't find the whole solution in one place so I wrote something up. I hope someone finds this useful.
 Symptoms Please note the description below has been modified from its original.Scenario:Consider a work list item that is assigned to 5 users -- all 5 users see that task item in their work list when it’s allocated.Now, if one of the 5 users moves to a different team, they want the ability to remove that work list item from that user's worklist so it ONLY appears to rest of the 4 users.They do not want to delegate or redirect as the system will rely on remaining 4 users to complete the work.Use case:They have different sites ( A, B, C etc.) and there are multiple 'Operators' in each of the sites. When a request is submitted, it gets assigned to a site so they dynamically assign the work item to all 'Operators' under that site. When a user moves from Site A to Site B, they don't want them to see the requests that were assigned to them when they were in Site A but they should start seeing requests assigned to them since moving to Site B. Diagnoses Workflow design issue versus K2 API Lim
We would like to delegate the workflow task if the user is Out of office, What are the minimum permission required for Task Delegation.As per my testing till now it seems the user should have full control permission on site level to delegate the task, Is it correct or any less permission is sufficient .Note : We dont want to give full control over the site for task delegation, If there is no option then we have to .
Hi, i'm still learning how to use Nintex Workflow.Is it possible to check if the "assigned to" (person field) -user on my main doc library already exists in list A, or if not, in list B?I'm working on a multi tier approval workflow. The other lists just contain different approver.I just don't want the user to fill out my "helper" field "responsible employee". It would be great to replace this by workflow logic.The approval WF should work like this:- if "assigned to" is not "responsible employee" (RE) and not "team manager" (TM) then send 1st approval to "responsible employee" -> 2nd approval to "TM"Â - if "assigne to" is "RE" -> 1st approval to "RE" -> 2nd approval "TM"- if "assigned to" is "TM" -> approval to "TM"My environment:2 listslist A: responsible employee (RE) (person/group - can approve)list B: team manager (TM) (person/group - can approve)doc library: MainDocassigned to: (person/group)responsible employee: (lookup from list A) - would be great if this could be hid
Hi, Similar issues have been posted but I cant find a solution that works for me. I need a rule in my form that keeps a panel hidden unless a requirement is met. In my form, users need to select an employment type from a drop down:Regular permenant positionSeasonalSessionalFixed TermTemporary (Maternity Leave) I want a panel to show only if Fixed Term or Temporary are selected. The hide button is ticked in the rule and I am selcting a Named Control, not the Item property.I've tried numerous formulas including:or(StatusExtraInfo!= 'Fixed Term' , StatusExtraInfo != 'Temporary')or(StatusExtraInfo!= 'Fixed Term' || StatusExtraInfo != 'Temporary')StatusExtraInfo!="Fixed Term', 'Temporary'and so on. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Lexie

Good morning,I have a form which allows the user to select people they want to send an email to. I am not able to grab the people (or email addresses) from a workflow.
