I'm trying to work out how to count the number of characters in a multi-line textbox in real time, as I have a requirement for the field to have a minimum of 200 characters.  I've searched the form and found a post that counts down from 10 characters, but can't seem to get this to work on my multi-line textbox.   Can someone please advise how to get this working.

I am trying to create a Service Request Scheduler. I would like to Limit the Date Picker based on Service Drop-Down.  For example; If I only do Oil Changes on Monday. When the user selects Oil Change from the Service type field, I only want Mondays to be selectable in the Date Picker. If a user selects Brake Repair, I only want Tuesday - Thursday selectable. Additionally, I need to limit the hours selectable to between 10am and 4pm, in 1 hour increments. 

Hello Everyone, So I created a form, similar to what was posted here: Service Calendar Scheduler - Limit Date Picker based on Choice Problem is, I can't get his code to work.  I'm using Nintex Forms 2013 Version 2.11.9.0.  I load the form on both IE 11 and FireFox and no luck getting the DatePicker to update on a new form.  Below is my version of the code I'm to do. NWF.FormFiller.Events.RegisterAfterReady(function () { NWF$('#' + varSystems).change(function(evt){ switch(evt.target.value){ case 'Playstation' : NWF$('#' + varRelease).datepicker( "setDate", "+2W" ); break; } }); NWF$('#' + varProduct).change(function(evt){ switch(evt.target.value){ case 'XBOX' : NWF$('#' + varRelease).datepicker( "setDate", "+4W" ); break; } }); NWF$('#' + varProduct).change(function(evt){ switch(evt.target.value){ case 'Nintendo' : NWF$('#' + varRelease).datepicker( "setDate", "+3W" ); break; } }); NWF$('#' + varProduct).change(function

Hello. I have a list that uses a Nintex Form to view and register for an event. However, in that form I would also like to display some kind of sub-list with the info: Name of Registrants Event Category Date Registered What is the best way to achieve this without having to create another SharePoint list? Thanks in advance for your assistance!

I have a list of Computers that we are being billed for. I have a Nintex form that I have a repeated section that will display all the computers assigned to a particular person (Display Name). On the form, it calculates the Display Name and in the repeated section I am using Lookup to pull the Make/Model and the Service Tag. However, it’s only pulling the first line and not the remaining in the repeated section. How can I get it to display all the computers assigned to the person?     

Hi, could use some help to modify a current workflow. Current workflow works good based on a calendar event that requires approval or rejection and then the workflow ends. In parallel I need to create or run an action to send an email alert if the event is updated or deleted. Is this possible and if so any suggestions that I can take would be appreciated.

I have these 3 fields within form, but now need the magic to happen. How can I add a rule OR variable for the # within "HOTELDAYS" multiplied by the # within "HOTELCOSTPERDAY", equals the "TOTALHOTELCOST" ?   This needs to be automatically done as the submitter fills out the field.

This should be dead easy, and likely solved 1000 times before, but I'm trying to get various user profile attributes to populate various form fields. I am able to put calculated fields on the form, and those work great, but how do I put the calculated values into the form fields? I have tried naming the calculated fields, but can't set the form fields. I've tried connecting the calculated fields to the form fields, but that doesn't work either. This seems like it should be exceedingly simple. What am I missing?

I am having an issue with trying to update a multi-select choice field on my context item via the Update item action.  I have created a custom task form, to which I have added a multi-select choice field, and I save the value of the choice field to a variable for update to a corresponding field on my list item, through the workflow Update item action.  However, after the update, though I am seeing the updated field value(s) on the list view, I do not see them in my item form, (which is a Nintex form).  Is there some sort of magic formula for updating multi-select choice field via workflow, so that the selected values are visible on the form?  Incidentally, if I choose only one item in the multi-select values, the one selection is displayed in my form, this only fails with multiple selections.

Hey all, I will sum values from my list in the Nintex list formular by filtering over a dropdown-value. For example: I have a list like this: customer_number; Projekt; amount; In real: 1; 0814;100 2; 0816;100 1; 4711;120 1; 0999;110 3; 0816;300   In my formular I have a dropdown to select customer_number. In a formula field I will see the sum of all amount-field of the customer. So when I select customer_number 1, the formula field should write 330 to the formular at runtime. When customer_number 2, then 100 and so on.   Have sombody a hint?   Best regerads and thanks Eric

Hi! Is there any way to split into columns a the answers from a multiple choice question? There are many answer options, and it would look better if they were split into 2 columns.

Hello Community, I'm working with Nintex Forms, in SharePoint 2013, and I want to lock all the form fields once the submit button is clicked. I haven't found anyway to do this - has anyone else? If so please provide guidance and code examples. Thanks! Tom

I need to populate a field in a SP (2013) list with the current date and time when the workflow block is triggered.  The list column is a Date/Time type, set to capture both date and time.  However, whenever the workflow runs, it populates the field with the correct date, but the time is always "12:00".  Is there something in the workflow that is causing this, and how can I get the proper date AND time?

Hello Community, I am working with Nintex Forms in SharePoint 2013, and I want to create a validation check for a Date field. I need the field to throw a validation error if the user enters a date that is less than or equal to today, so the pseudo logic would look like this: If Date <= Today Then Invalid These are the types of validation codes I've used (but so far nothing has worked): {Self}<=TODAY DateField<=TODAY Has anyone else solved this kind of issue before? If so please provide guidance and code examples. Thanks! Tom

I have a SharePoint site collection with 50 subsites. Each subsite contains Nintex workflows associated with a list. What is the best practice to move the site collection from dev to staging without test dev site data but with the Nintex workflows to be associated with the lists.

Hi   I need to list a number of different fields  in a control in a Word Document. Everything else works perfectly.  I have tried using collection variables but this does not seem to work with different fields.  For example, If 1.1 (field)=true or 1.2  (field)= true etc then the name of these items need to be added to a control in the document.   Thank you.

Greetings all,   I am new to Nintex and have struggled (but successfully) to setup a basic approval workflow process. So the following tasks I need help with might be very basic functions, so apologies in advance!   Now, I'd like to have a function that moves the document that's been approved or rejected to a certain folder such as "Approved files" or "rejected files".    In addition, I'd also like to have a "timestamp" on the approval process where the "approver" has a certain time limit, say 10 days, before the document in question is automatically approved.Can anyone help me with setting up these two functions?Thank you very much in advance! Julien

I have a form that contains a list lookup control referencing a list that has very limited permissions.  Almost everyone has no permissions on that list's level and it has to stay that way.  Therefore, when someone who doesn’t have permission clicks on the item to view the form, they get an “unexpected error” notification.  Is there a way for me to bypass/override the permissions on a control like using the “Run as Workflow Owner” feature in Nintex Workflow?   Thank you, Owen

Hi All,   Tried to find this issue in other post but I have not been able to get anything. I am trying to use SPservices jquery script lookup valuer across 2 columns, I was hoping someone would be able to assist:   I have a sharepoint list named journal spservices tutorial and i got the query against the Title working no problems. However when it is querying against multiple columns Title and Product. I get empty results:       NWF$(document).ready(function() { //The source data for the autocomplete is the Journals list //Store the journal titles in a array variable var externalParties = []; NWF$().SPServices({ operation: "GetListItems", async: false, listName: "Journals", CAMLViewFields: "<ViewFields><FieldRef Name='Title' /><FieldRef Name='Product' /></ViewFields>", //the name needs to be changed accordingly completefunc: function(xData, Status) { NWF$(xData.responseXML).SPFilterNode("z:row").each(function() {

Hi there, Just new to exploring nintex workflow and apologies if this was asked already, but I can't seem to get the right solution for my scenario.   I have multiple lists (time sheets) for each teams that we have. Having different list for each team is crucial because of multiple reasons (privacy, activity data pull, manager, etc) but I want to consolidate all of the data entered from all of those time sheets into one Sharepoint list for easy pull of data.    I'm kinda lost in how to start the workflow. Should I just use Copy Item? but my condition would be everytime there's a new entry the workflow should copy the data to the consolidated list. and If ever there's an update, it will also update in the consolidated list. Is that even possible? as for the columns that needs to be copied, All of the times sheets have the same column name and type so there won't be an issue there   I'm also open with links of already answered forums with this types of scenarios as well.

Hi All,   I have a workflow with multiple approvals, which run one after another they are not paralell.    I was hoping there is a way that I could create a "queue" for those assigned to the task to be able to process the request. I'd like the people assigned to each task, to be able to open a queue that allows them to process the request rather than running off of their email.   This is how I imagine it to work:   1. Account Approval : This task is assigned to a user based on the specific account, so if they do not have the right to approve this, they should not have the ability to approve/reject it.   2. Manager Approval: this is set up the same was as account approval, and would require the same rules.   3. CFO Approval: The CFO is the only person who will be assigned this task, he has the ability to delegate the task to anyone in our company. The CFO and the delegates should have the ability to approve within this queue, but ONLY if the task is assigned to them.   4. Second Approva

I have list and in the form I have two tabs that ask the employee if they would like to update an existing form or  start a new one. I can not seem to figure out how to make the past forms(items show up on the same form. Any help would be great. Please and thank you

Dear community,   I just came across a problem for a specific user that can no longer action tasks assigned to him. This should not be consequent to any change since neither permission settings (at item, task list or site level), workflow design nor user account have been made. The user receives the email with the link to approve but when clicking the link a permission denied error shows up. Same happens when trying to open the task from the task list directly. User has contribute access to the item, to the task list and to the site.  The server log clearly shows an access denied error for the authenticated user. Troubleshooting done so far: - Restart of his machine - Elevating his privileges to full control on the site. This allows him to open the task but it still says he's not authorized to approve or reject (can only delegate). - What's interesting is that if I delegate the task assigned to this user to that same user again, then he can action it. Based on this I checked the workfl

I'm trying to update a SQL Table using the Execute SQL action where items have the same ID, without any luck. I used a previous INSERT INTO action sucessfully in a different workflow so my Connection string is good. I'm having issues with the Query. My scenario is to have the SQL Table updated whenever the List item is modified based on the List Item ID which is a Primary key on the table. UPDATE dbo.Table2SET [Plant]=('{ItemProperty:Plant_x003a_}'),[Employee]=('{ItemProperty:Employee_x003a_}'),[Job Title]=('{ItemProperty:Job_x0020_Title_x003a_}'),[Badge Number]=('{ItemProperty:Badge_x0020_number_x003a_}'),[Course Name]=('{ItemProperty:CN}'),[Date of Course]=('{ItemProperty:Date_x0020_of_x0020_course}'),[Expiry date]=('{ItemProperty:Expiration_x0020_date}'),[FacilityID]=('{ItemProperty:Facility_x003a_}'),[CourseID]=('{ItemProperty:Course_x003a_}'),[Employee Name]=('{ItemProperty:Employee_x0020_Name}'),WHERE [ContentTypeID]=('{ItemProperty:ID}');   I do not get any errors, just items do

Hi, I'm using Nintex Workflow for SP 2019. I have a calendar and a task list. I want to connect my tasks to a calendar entry. So you can see all tasks referring to a meeting. Therefore I create a lookup column In my tasklist to the column start time in my calendar). It works fine but not for recurring events. In my lookup column I only see the first entry of my recurrent event. Has anybody an idea for me how I can solve this issue?
