I understand there's some limitations to UDAs when it comes to User or Group fields, but I was wondering what would be the best way to turn this workflow I have into a reusable UDA?Here's what my list and workflow looks like currently:Field NameField TypeTitle*Single line textRequest*Multiple lines of textManager*User or GroupAlternate ApproverUser or Group<Is 'Alternate Approver' empty?>-- Yes- Set variable:Approver = 'Manager'-- No- Set variable:Approver = 'Alternate Approver'[Flexi Task: Send notification out to 'Approver' to approve or reject the 'Request']As it is right now if I were to convert the workflow straight up as a UDA, I get an error as the 'Approver' variable doesn't resolve to a User or Group properly.

Nintex wizards, I probably have an easy challenge for you. I have a list with 2000+ items. The list has a choice field, and I want to update the verbiage of one of the choices. However, if I do that in the list settings, all the existing list items that have that choice will have the "old" version of the choice, and if anyone tried to edit an unrelated field in those items, they wouldn't be able to save it unless they ALSO changed the "old" version of that field to the new.I need a (hopefully simple way) to make this change for all items - I'm assuming it's going to involve something silly like a workflow that will run in a loop on all items, and a "run if" that will look for the old value, remove it and add the new value. Is there an easier way to do this?

Hi,I'm need help. I want to populate date based on week that I select. Example, if I select field W1 of July, it will auto populate date on the days field that I have.Kindly advise. Thanks

In a list display form, how do I show the create date (upload date) next to each of the file attachments?

Hello all,I have a rookie question.  Can I add some of the fields that appear in my "Assign a task" form to the task list?I am interested in adding fields such as "due date", "Assigned by", Document title (from the doc library it is associated with).  To make it easier for the user to sort through in the task list.Thanks very much,-Reid

What action can I use to:Send Notification #1 IF contract type=AORsend Notification #2 if contract type=B

I need to create a button that will set a hidden checkbox field to true and then submit the form. I'm not a coder, but dally with javascript occasionally. I've searched everywhere for pre-existing code to do the task I am attempting, but can't find anything. I saw some posts about UNchecking radio buttons using javascript and I tried to modify it to make it work with the checkbox, but no go. Below is the code I tried: NWF$('document').ready(function(){var strBeginReviewValue = NWF$('#'varBeginReviewID).find("input:checkbox:not(:checked)").val();NWF$('#'varBeginReviewID).find('input[value=''strBeginReviewValue'']').attr('checked', true);});varBeginReviewID is the javascript ID for my checkbox. I placed this code in the client click field of the button. It does not set the checkbox to checked. The code above also does not submit the form. If anyone can help me get the button to do both the checking of the checkbox and submitting the form, it would be greatly appreciated!Thanks!Chris

I have a single form that contains multiple questions and sections. We have placed each question in a panel, and we show and hide each panel when the user selects tabs (radio buttons rendered as buttons) . The "Next" and "Previous" buttons basically move from one tab to the other. So if you are at question 1, and click Next, a javascript will run and show the next question(#2) and so on. The Javascript is something like this. function GoToQ2 () { NWF$('#'+ formTabs).find('input:radio[value="2"]').prop("checked","true").change();return false;}We need that "Next" button to do validation (and possibly save and continue as well) of the questions.The tricky part is want to do validation only for the current tab before it moves on to the next question.Is it possible to do partial validation given that all of them are technically on the same form ?!How can we do that, and can we cause validation only on specific rules on each button?

This question is a follow-up to a previous question on how to pull out xml data for a multi-line text with using append changes to text.  I have been able to create a workflow which will pull the xml data, but the data is still kind of messy.  I want to continue building onto my workflow to  take this data, strip out the non-needed text, concatenate the outputs back together and store results in another field.  I know to concatenate the fields back together I need to use Build String, but I'm not sure what to use when stripping out the unneeded text.Again, the method I'm using (multi-line append changes to text field) is required per my line of work.  I need to pull the data out and load into another field for easy extraction into excel.Below are the results of my Query XML step.  I have 3 outputs which will need to be 'prettied-up' and then concatenated back together before loading into another field.Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,I created a project site where project information is entered on a subsite list. The information from the subsite/project list will be added to the top site list via a Nintex workflow. Also, when information is edited on the project/subsite list, it should flow to the top site list as well.I created a Nintex workflow using the "create item in another site" module. It works in placing the list item on the top site list when initially created. However, when I try to update a project/subsite list item, the updated information does not flow to the top site list.After setting the workflow setting "Start when items are modified" to Yes, I get a workflow error that reads: Create Site Specific Item Activity The list item could not be added or updated because duplicate values were found in the following field(s) in the list: "FieldA". I am using Sharepoint 2016 onPrem. Attached is an image of the workflow settings. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in Advanced.

I have multiple list lookup controls that show up (that are hidden with panels) when filtered through single line of text field. The connected ids only appear for some list lookup control but not for others even if the other controls are inside the panel are hidden and disabled using rule. All the list lookup controls are pulling from one list but different views. Does anyone has any idea on how to set list lookup values to the list lookup column if multiple list lookup controls are inside a form but only one list look up control in the column?

I have two fields in my form:(a) Direct Manager Name (people picker), e.g. John Smith(b) Department Head Name (people picker) e.g. John SmithI also have a check box "If you Direct Manager and Department Head are the same person, check this box". What I want is to copy the Direct Manager name to the Department Head Name field (as this is a mandatory field so I can't leave it blank or rely on the workflow to update this).Any suggestions?

I am new to this and think I found a problem.I have one field out of +-137 rows that does not save. It happens in chrome and IE. As far as I know all other fields are working.I have a field named DATAENDDATE within SharePoint 2013 OnPrem. Nintex forms does connect to it. Since my date could be something other than date I use jQuery date and set constraints to false. I have several field like this with no problems except this one. It is not the very last row. Somewhere in the middle.I do not have any errors and I can input the date just fine in the ListView Edit field.I did delete the field in the form and recreate it. I am not able to publish it until a scheduled time.Is there anything I need to check for?Thank you.

I have a choice control that needs to become a mandatory selection once a particular value is not selected from a previous choice control.All Validation rule seem to be ignored for all controls. I'm using the latest version of forms 2010.

I am trying to build a form that will take staff details and create a word document with a vCard QR Code image inserted into it to be sent to be sent to an external printing service so that business cards can be printed up by them. I have looked at this thread which creates bar codes but have run into issues when sending the vCard info to an external web service such as google http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chs=200x200&cht=qr&chld as the URL length exceeds 255 chars.I am kind of stuck on how i should proceed. Has anyone created a vCard QR Code solution using Nintex workflows?

We are trying to migrate forms from InfoPath to Nintex Forms, we want to determine if Nintex Forms can meet our needs.  One problem we have encountered is the inability to keep the Nintex Form open when the user saves the form data.  Is this possible in NIntex Forms.  WE are using version 2.5.0.0.Thanks,Tom

HelloI have added the Print Button as explained here:https://community.nintex.com/community/support/blog/2015/02/17/print-buttonThe issue is that the form is being printed out a bit too small!The actual form size is set to 700 x 900I figure that if I increase the height / width then the output (printout) will be larger.However, wonder if there is a way around that ... via some kind of JavaScripts or CSS etc?Anyone gone through this before?!

I am having trouble with the Ninex Forms 2013 External Data Column.  I setup my external content type Read List operation with a filter.  I used a filter type of Wildcard, but I'm still not having any luck.  It works when I have the Nintex form external data column control set to 'default' but I get blanks when I select 'Dropdown'.What I ultimately want to do, I'm not even sure if it's possible.  I'd like to make the external data column be dependent on another field's value.  So in other words, the filter use a the current logged in user to limit the values in a pick list.  Is this even possible?Thank you in advance for any assistance!

I want to check if a request for the same person (and other conditions...) is exist in other list of the form.The problem is that every user can see one list, but just few have permission for the list I need to check.Therefore, the lookup is not return weather or not the item exist.How can I make the lookup happen from another user - like in the WF?

I'm using Ninex 2010 for the moment.  I know how to hide/show a field using the appearance setting based on another field's value, but it only seems to evaluate when the form is first loaded.  Changing the trigger field's value after the form has been loaded has no effect on the secondary field's visibility.So here's the ask.  Is it possible to program a field to dynamically show based on a CHANGING radio button in another field?This behavior is similar to a survey where selecting Yes or No changes what questions are displayed below, dynamically.Thanks in advance for any help, even if it is to say Nintex can't do this!TJ

Can anyone help with a syntax to insert a href value (see emphasis below) in a form calculated value formula? Not much luck with the following:If(Status=="Assessment completed", "This assessment form has been completed and can no longer be edited. A <a href=""Site URL/Documents/Assessment-ID-Submitter.docx"">copy of this assessment</a> is also available in Microsoft Word format.", If(Status=="Closed", "This assessment form has been closed and can no longer be edited.", If(Status=="Cancelled", "This assessment form has been cancelled and can no longer be edited.")))

I have a form with a List Lookup control on the form.In view mode the form displays the value from this Lookup Control, as a hyperlink.I want to remove the hyperlink from the value and retain the text only, in the Form View mode.I would appreciate any help extended on this.Thanks.
