Need help displaying the current year and quarter in a label control using Nintex Forms.I have a calculated value column in the list with a default value formula that displays the correct year and quarter, but when using this field in the Nintex Form it doesn't calculate and display the value at form load.Calculated Value Formula (using Modified date field):=ASC(YEAR([Modified]))&"-"&IF(MONTH([Modified])<4,"Q1",IF(MONTH([Modified])<7,"Q2",IF(MONTH([Modified])<10,"Q3","Q4")))Anyone that can help with a formula I can use in the Insert Reference section, or another alternative solution to this requirement, would be greatly appreciated.Thanks!

The instructions at SharePoint Online actions  state that we canCreate, retrieve, update, and delete list itemsBut then the list of available actions is only to Get a file or attachment. Why is there such as a disconnect?  Where are the instructions for working with Lists? 

Hello all,I'm looking for an explanation/document that would clarify what's exactly Forms/Workflow International version about.and what're exact differences to pure English version.I mean, does international version mean that nintex products can 'talk' to users in supported languages except of english? (in release notes there are listed some 10 or so languages)ie. form/workflow designer, CA admin pages, help pages, etc can be localized.or does international version mean what site primary/alternate languages are allowed/supported to run nintex on the site?in other words, if I have nintex forms/workflow of English version, can I configure site to run in other language/locale (eg. German), so that (end) users can configure their native language as prefered in their profiles?or are there any other specifics about International version?thanks for any feedback that could explain this.Marian.

 We will focus in this post on how to display images in a column on a list view. In my example below, I will be leveraging a SmartObject from an appified SharePoint Picture Library as the source for my images, but any SmartObject with a method call that will provide an array of hyperlinks to the images that you would like to use will also work.   Setup   I create a SharePoint Picture Library entitled "Image Directory" and add a few images to the library, then appify the Picture Library.      The SmartObject created for this library, by default, has a Get Documents method that will provide a "Link to Item" parameter that I can leverage on a list view to populate the list with thumbnails of the images.   I can now create a new View (either within 'Image Directory,' or from the artifacts page of any other appified list or library), configured as a List View, and tied to the SmartObject of Image Directory.      On the Layout tab, I click to create a table with two columns. For the first co

I would like to make LazyApproval even lazier. In my task emails I want to create two buttons "Approve" and "Reject". When a user gets the email it is a one step process to approve or reject the task instead of clicking reply and then adding in the text that hopefully matches the outcome.To create these two buttons I need the LazyApproval GUID that is appended to the subject. In the picture below it is the [#EEEPPHCQPHCFPHC#] text.Any ideas of how to get this variable?

How can I get a workflow to kick-off when TodaysDate equals a date set in another list? It won't work if I make the workflow "Start when items are modified" if I have IN the workflow:Conditional Branch where FutureDate1=TodaysDate  will it? It would seem I'd have to have the workflow kick off each day somehow to loop and check to see if FutureDate1=TodaysDate  -- otherwise it's not really a "Start when items are modified" is it? This is how I originally tried setting up my workflow to kick off only when TodaysDate = a date field I have called 18 Month final email sent

I've discovered that if someone delegates an approval task for an item, the delegate must have permission to read the item. We often limit all permissions on an item to the submitter and the intended approver. Since there doesn't appear to be a way to automatically grant permissions to the delegate, does anyone have a workaround for this problem? It seems like it would be a fairly common need. Thanks!

It's working fine when "Request for Approval"  is approved, but when it is declined getting error "The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information."  LogWorkflowPlease suggest/guide me with solution.

Hi Community and Devs,My question is since haven't seen anything on this is, are Nintex forms ADA compliant or do we have to make them so?If they are not what are the ways or resources needed to do so, or has anyone have ideas on this?ThanksKevin

I understand how to purge items in a workflow history list, and also disable the list.  Can someone please help me how to delete the actual history list itself?  I create separate history lists for workflows, rather than use the default Nintex Workflow history list.  I would like to actually delete the custom history list, rather than just disable it.  Thanks!

In my form I have used Page Viewer to view PDF files stored on SharePoint. It works like opening pdf file in any web browser, the same features are shown. However, we have a requirement to allow users to add their comments and save the pdf file. Having the users re upload the document everytime is not very user friendly and would make the job easy to do... Is there a way we can allow the users to update the pdf file with their comments in nintex form without re uploading??

I have created a form which contains two choice fields (Type melding is A, Categorie is B) presented as radio buttons. Field A has 5 options (1=Audit, 2=Feedback, 3=Environment, etc.), field B has a different number of options, depending op which option was selected in field A. Obviously, the two choice fields are connected to fields in SharePoint that are related.I want to make choice field B mandatory depending on the choice made in field A. When choice 1(Audit) or choice 2 (Feedback) was selected in field A, field B must be selected. When choice 3, 4 or 5 was selected, field B is optional.This is the validation rule that I associated to field B which doesn't do what I expect it to do. It seems to me that the outcome of the choice in field A is somehow not picked up. Note that this rule only checks for one of the possible values, to keep it simple. I want to add the second value once I get this workingand(equals(FieldA,"Audit"),isNullOrEmpty({Self}))I've also tried this, where I repl

Good day!So I am trying to hide one choice since I am using a task process. This is the one I am using right now, but it seems to hide other rows on options of the controls as well, so it is an annoying workaround.tr:nth-of-type(3){display:none !important;}‍‍‍Any other way to hide task outcome choices specifically?

Hi Team,I am using sharepoint 2013. Is it possible to export Sharepoint list to excel. And i would like to update the same exported file (if any modifications happend to the sharepoint list).

Hi againJust found another issue with a leave solution I am trying to fix.Basically I have a SharePoint list (SharePoint Online) it has a start time field (date/time field) and a End time (date/time field). The date/time fields are set to show date and time in my SharePoint list.Using Nintex 365 and using the action "Create Exchange Online calendar item" I have configured it to use the list item current start date/time and end date/time fields of the list. Now when I fill the list item in SharePoint I set the time to: 18th Start at 6am and 22nd end 5pm. The workflow runs fine and creates the calendar entry. However this is where it get strange.The times in my outlook calendar are set wrong?. The time in calendar entry are 17th start and 22nd end?. The start time is 1 day before the time I selected in SharePoint??!!?? and to add to this the time is actually wrong, not the time I set in the list item????. The time in my outlook calendar is start: 7:30pm and End 6:30am???I have checked AL

I have a form with a repeating section on it, and would like to set up the ability to insert rows in that section, rather than add them on the bottom of the section like the default behavior for the "Add new row" link. I have the repeating section configured to include an "insert row" link for each one, but can't find a function that will insert a row above (or below, doesn't really matter) the row where the "insert row" link is clicked.  I am guessing there is some sort of JavaScript function built in that looks for the last child in the repeating section, and appends the new row.  I can get the index number of the "Insert Row" link that is clicked with .index() to figure out after/before which row the new one should be added, but just need the function that creates the row to pass that parameter to.Thanks for any help/guidance anyone can provide!

Hello. I've been trying to copy a list item from a subsite to a top site list  without any progress. For example, when employee ID is entered or changed on a subsite list, I want the list item to populate  a top site list. In the workflow, I used the Query list action first and the copy item action under it. My problem is that the top site list is not showing in the "Copy to" section of the copy item action. What am I doing wrong. Thanks in advance.

I have two views on an InfoPath form, Design and IQ. Once the Design has approved I have a Form Load rule which switches to the IQ view. However I want to build in logic which switches back to the Design view if it's rejected.To this end I've set up a field in the form and library called 'Approved_rejected' with a default value of 'Pass'. For reasons I can't fathom if I use a Set Field action it doesn't see the 'Approved_rejected' field, so I'm trying to use the Update item and I've set up a second Form Load so that if ' 'Approved_rejected' is selected it switches back to the Design View. The configuration of the Update item is below, am I setting it up wrong or is there a more straight forward way to achieve what I need?Thanks in advance. 

I'm trying to set up custom reminder on calendar item as so, each individual item has field called "reminder" which is number field, of course it's SharePoint calendar so I have also:TitleStart DateEnd DateDescriptionStatus (Not checked yet, checking... , done) Etc etc ... Now I want the get email notification like so: a. StartDate - reminderNumb. sendMsgI mean, if today minus the reminder day should be equals to... what? I can't figure it out. When reminderNum is lets, 2 daysEvent set for 7/26 startDateThat means I want the reminder for 7/24, right? So I do I calculate it on workflow?I know i need to use theCalculate Date -> maybe Build a string to store the diff between both days and then what?

Hello,I am researching some document signing solutions for our SharePoint 2016/Nintex Workflow 2016 environment. I am currently evaluating Adobe Sign for SharePoint. I noted that Nintex 0365 supports Document Generation although we are currently an on-premise configuration. Is there an add on to Nintex Workflow 2016 that supports Adobe Sign?Thank you,Steve Roberts

Hello,I have repeating rows. Inside each repeating row, I have several fields; two of those fields are "Other (Numbers Only)" and "OTHER (Comments)" as can be seen in the attached image. These fields can only accept numbers.How it shows on the page:How it shows on the Nintex:I am trying to ensure that if any of the OTHER(Numbers only) are anything more than 0, then Other (Comments) needs to be filled out and is mandatory.I gave "othernumber" the name to OTHER (Numbers Only) as belowI tried to add this validation using rules as below:However, the problem is below:* If two repeating rows have other (number) > 0, then the validation kicks in. This is correct. I fill it one of the Other (comments) and leave the other(comments) empty. I expected the validation still stop me from submitting. However, it gets submitted. I need all Other (Number Only) to be checked. Is that possible using rules or another way?

Is it just me or does the K2 Designer get slower and slower the more you use it? the only thing that remedies this is running an iisresetI think I would be OK if this was after days or weeks of heavy use, but its happening after just a few minutes of heavy use. Controls and options that took miliseconds to appear take 10, 15, 20 seconds even. any ideas?
