HelloThe OOB task from that is sent for request review has the item properties of the item in the document library. How can these be made editable so when reviewing the task they can be updated?Thanks

When making updates to my nintex form, I am no longer to preview it before publishing.  I receive the folowing error message:The server encountered an error processing the request.  The exception message is 'Minor version limit exceeded.You must first publish a major version before editing this document.'  See server logs for more details.  (see attachment for full message)I Goggled for the error message but I am not sure if I understand the process to fix this.  https://community.nintex.com/thread/1280   I have versioning set up... but I do not see "Create major and minor (draft) versionshttps://community.nintex.com/message/26774There are references of deleting the library, and I am not even sure how to do that (not to mention afraid of losing my form!) and using SharePoint Designer (which my company does not use).

I am using Responsive Forms for my new application. I want to validate a Multiline field on the event of Save & Submit button click. How can we achieve that in Responsive Forms? I used classic forms before but due to JS support, it was lot easier.

I have a somewhat complex scenario, but it is working differently if it is a Brand New Entry, versus an Existing Entry.I have a Project Drop Down field that a User can select a Project.  I have a calculated field on the form, that takes that project selection and parses out the first 5 characters (project ID) and stores it into another field (Project ID).With an Existing Request, if a user goes in and selects an option from the Project Drop down, the Project ID (first 5 characters) is successfully parsed out and the ID is loaded into the Project ID field upon hitting 'Submit'.With a New request, when the user selects an option from the Project Drop Down and hits, 'Submit' the calculated field is not parsing out and loading the project ID into the Project ID field.  The user needs to go back into the request in Edit mode, and hit 'Submit' again....one thing to note with this...when they go back into the request, the Project is still selected from the initial entry, just the calculated f

I am wondering why my task that's assigned a workflow schedule gets duplicated and a new item will appear with the name "You have a new task" under the same list. The workflow should only be sending reminders to the assignee, not creating a duplicate of the task everytime the workflow runs. Does anyone know how I can fix that?  as you can see, the "You have a new task!" is just a duplicate of the task above it. Thanks!

I looking for a way to execute my PowerShell script in one of action in nintexWorkFlow 2013.Any idea .

In my gut, I feel I should know how to fix this.  Alas...I cannot.  I am working on a time-off request form for one of our managers and we are trying to come up with "creative" ways to get around not having a business days/hours function available to us.  Currently, I'm trying out a date calculation for single day requests where someone enters the date and time they want off, then adds the number of hours off in the next field. My calculated value says "add hours to this date/time to get the end time" (at least that's what I want it to say).  What I am finding, though, is that it works great, but with whole numbers only. If someone wants 2.5 hours off, it only calculates the 2 hours and does not include the additional 30 minutes.  My formula:  formatDate(dateAddHours(RequestBeginSingleControl,TotalHoursOffControl), "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm tt")Results:My first question: "What am I doing wrong?".  Second question: "How do I fix this?"Thank you in advance for your brain power during a holiday w

Hope this makes sense.I have choice column which has 3 options and the last one is "other" if the user selects "other" which then enables another field next to this which allows the users to add what other options are required. As l cant connect 2 Nintex form columns to 1 SharePoint column, is there any way that when the user selects "other" choice and then enters information in the free text box for that to be inserted in the first column with the choice so is visible in SharePoint instead of creating another column purely for the users "other" response

Hi,I am trying to validate the TIME on a date/time function.I manage to validate the date but the time is always set to 00:00 by default.If someone does pick the date but not the time > the validation goes through.However, it is important that the user also picks the relevant time.Yes, the process is to set the time but some users do not follow the instructions.How would I be able to validate if the time is set to 00:00 then display error "please select the time..."Current validation is set to:  BookingDateTime < Current Date && Is New Mode

I am having 2 radio buttons in a repeating section of the form.The two options allows two panel (having many controls) in the repeating section to be disable and enable.The problem is coming when the user write in a panel (having many controls in it)  than disable it by radio button, then user will have to fill the form for enable panel. i.e both the panels will have data in it. When I am submitting the task form, both the sections are being saved. I only wanted to save the section which was enable by radio button on the task the form. Or if there is another way to reset panel when the radio button disable a section. Please see image in the attachment for more clarify.

I'm trying to display a user choice outcome from a drop down list in a rich text control in the same form.  The "insert Reference" button has worked well for me previously, but it does not list form variables in the dialog box to use as reference data.  This choice outcome is not set anywhere else in the workflow.  I can use a calculated value field to display the data but it is not as pleasing to the eye as an inserted reference in a rich text control.  Please advise.Choice Settings:Form variable:Insert Reference Dialog Box:

I have 5 different workflows and each have unique tasks being created.  I have created a separate custom task list separate from the main list, with categories to identify each item in the task list.My question is how do I get the 'task controls" in the different workflows to use the "task form" from the custom Task list?  Specifically the "notifications" and "actions" that are used by the control.

Hello,I have a huuuge workflow that needs to be splited and I have issue passing.I did redPassing variables between Nintex workflows | My Learnings Start a Workflow using a Web Service and this helped me a lot.Passing variable with an xml string works on my test workflows but not on the one I have to split.I can see that my string is built correctly in my parent workflow but in the child workflows, the variables remains empty. I am using the same parameters for the call web service as in my test that works.So could it be that the name of the variables create issue when trying to fill them in the child workflow? What do you advice to check?

Hello Team,I added Nintex workflows 2013 web-part named My Workflow Tasks. It is displaying the title of the item for which the task is related to. But in my environment users mostly use the ID for business process. Can you please guide me the options in which I can pull the item ID (this is the task related item ID not task ID).My thought on this is writing a JavaScript to pull the data. But I would like to know if we have any simpler approaches than writing lines of code. Any help is appreciated.Thanks,Soni

When trying to open task forms using 'Edit Task Form' > 'Edit with Nintex Forms' the form designer doesn't open. This issue is affecting all tasks on all workflows within one of our site collections. The forms were previously working on this site collection. We haven't made any changes to Nintex workflow on this site collection other than publishing updated versions of a few workflows recently.This has also caused some of the existing tasks which are using Nintex forms to no longer be accessible.The SharePoint logs show the following error:  "Failed to retrieve form from workflow. Error: Cannot find the task form. Please check the action's form in the Workflow Designer."I've done a bit of research on this and see some suggestions to disable and re-enable the 'Nintex workflow forms' feature on the site collection. I would prefer not to do this though if we will lose workflow task forms and need to recreate/re-import them. Has anyone else experienced this issue?Thanks

Hello,When I used InfoPath I had options where when form was submitted I could set up in Data Connections that it could just email, email and populate list choices.  I have a need to have the user fill out the form and then the workflow will just email the information/tasks.  I do not want it to publish to the list due to the sensitivity of the data.  Is this possible?Thanks,Carrie.

HelloI have a workflow which requests 2 approvals from different management.The purpose is to have both their names in the People/Group field when they respond to the task.The update item action does not allow me to specify more than one source.In return I thought maybe using a Build String to set it as a text field and then convert to variable may work?Anyway, I am hitting the wall and hope to get some support What I did:1) defined the following variables:txt_LogPurchManager (single text)coll_LogPurchManager (collection)LogPurchManager (people group)2) added a Build String as following:Text:                    {WorkflowVariable:LogisticsManager};{WorkflowVariable:PurchasingManager}Store result:         txt_LogPurchManager3) added a Regular Expression actionPattern:         ;Input:            {WorkflowVariable:txt_LogPurchManager}Store:            coll_LogPurchManager4) added a Build String actionText:             {WorkflowVariable:coll_LogPurchManager}Store:            txt_LogPurchMan

 Symptoms   SharePoint site with K2 Form Viewer web part. After switching the account in SP Online, the K2 account of the previous user stays active.    Solution Issue has been fixed in 4.7 March 2018 CU FP7.https://help.k2.com/kb002355   If you have the fix applied but the issue is still persisting, make sure of the following: Please use K2 Form Viewer to select the required Form from the list instead of adding the form URL into the web part properties manually, so the form URL should look like the following example:https://[TenantName]-[AppID].sharepoint.com/sites/[AppcatalogSiteName]/K2FiveforSharePoint/Pages/FormViewerAppPart.aspx?SPSiteURL=https://[TenantName].sharepoint.com/sites/[SiteName]&WPQ=_WPQ_&WPID=_WPID_   Selecting the Form/View from the list below resolves the issue    

 A small challenge I had today was to create a smartform which has two views. One view loads a list of document from a SharePoint online document library, when a list item is clicked it then loads the document into the second view.   The first part is very easy, head into sharepoint, have K2 autogenerate the smartobject for me and then create a view in smartforms that loads the list.  Then all I had to do was add an on list view click event and pass the url to the document to a second view with a content control in it and bingo. At least that is what I had thought! Alas in SharePoint online iFraming of documents is blocked. Hmm after much googling I found answers where I could head into the master page of sharepoint and allow framing. But Honestly i did not want to mess around with sharepoint masterpages ect.   So I had a re-think: Whilst I could not iframe it in (content control) I can still give the user a really good simple way to view the document from the smartform rather than hea

Hi,My workflow suddenly stop working when i add a new column (Type: choice). My workflow keeps on being suspended because i think the new column i created cannot be stored on a variable or list looked up on my workflow. I don't know how to solve this. I just keep on getting this kind of error.But when i deleted the column and remove any actions on my workflow related to it my workflow works fine. But as soon as i try to store any value coming from that column i got this Boolean error.
