We have recently migrated our site to SharedPoint 2016 from 2007 along with our portfolio of Nintex workflows.  Because of some problems with one of our list objects, our administrator re-migrated a list.  The 5 workflows that had been associated with that list, are no longer listed as belonging to it.  I attempted to export and import the missing workflows, but received an error that the names were already in use on the site, despite not being listed in the Nintex Workflow Inventory.  I was able to locate them using the path.. http://<site>/NintexWorkflows/Forms/AllItems.aspx.  Is there a way to re-associate these workflows with the existing list?  I attempted to rename the old ones and re-import, but the receive an error on "Save" within the workflow designer;

Hi all,I have a problem with Forms Generation Client Event. I want to customize the page that shows information entered by an employee before and that employee manager can approval. I see that after deploying the process successfully, in C:Program FilesK2 blackpearlWorkSpaceClientEventPages will have a folder that contains the pages configured in process. I think i can customize it, but when i open and add some controls in the pages, then deploying process, it gets the following error: Task Error: System.Exception: Forms Generation publishing has failed: Please ensure that if you are deploying this project that you are not attempting to do so on client.

Hello Community, I have a form that I would like users to select specific fields they would like to copy to a new request. Right now I've modified the start form in my workflow and have checkboxes that allows them to select the fields they want to copy. I'm storing the values selected the start form in form variables then passing the variables to the workflow variables. Within the actual request form I want to have a link that opens up the start form, allows them to select the fields they want to copy and then submit. I'm stuck at the creation of the new item. What would be the best approach to creating the items after all the variables are set? Thanks!

Hi, its my first post so sorry if its not detailed enough!I followed this post and this post on starting a workflow using a webservice and it worked a treat in testing. Now i've moved it into a large doc library im getting unusual results. The first few tries the web service call was just greyed out, but now I can see that the site workflow has ran successfully, looped through and made the webservice calls on each item ID in my item ID variable, but it hasnt actually kicked off the library level workflow on each item...Ive seen some people mention that the StartWorkflowOnListItem webservice call doesnt work on doc libraries (think thats right), but when i edit the SOAP below and remove the list ID variable for a file ID it runs and initiates the library level workflow fine.Any ideas as to why this might be?UPDATE: I re-ran the site workflow with no list-level workflows running and it still produced this result <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="htt

Hi All, My business requirements:Developing a HR On-boarding application for a client. I built two lists:Candidate Application Form / Workflow:where candidate fills his name, Social security number, personal email address, expected base salary, date of birth etc. There can be many candidates on this list. I also used a lookup field (MakeOfferLetterBool) for the Interview Assessment Form which I will explain next.  Interview Assessment Form / Workflow: The HR team checks each candidate which is from the Candidate list.  Candidate job title, joining date etc. and the main part of this form is the recommend employee (Yes, No, KIV).I also created a field called “MakeOfferLetter” in this Interview Assessment Form. Now, if recommend employee field is selected by HR, I use the Run If and calls “Start Workflow” to call the   Candidate Application workflow and generate the Offer Letter for the candidate by using: I need to check in my Candidate Application Workflow, if the HR selects the Yes to

Now that we have the new feature available: Allow attachments control in the repeating sections. I want to be able to make the attachment required on condition. I've asked that question before when it was a standalone/single attachment field within the form. and we have a solution for that recorded here: Make attachments required on condition But the same solution doesn't work when the attachment control is placed within a repeating section. It doesn't validate. The rule is only checking if a field (that is outside the repeating section) of type "Yes/no" that is  == "Yes" then I want to make all the attachments within the repeating sections require at least 1 attachment.I tried to put an additional rule, where a value within the repeating section is not blank, then make the attachment required (check if the attachment count is greater than 0). It doesn't fire either. Here is the validation rule:Nintex Forms Designer - IPMA - Prototype 0.7 - ItemGetNumberOfAttachments("attCtrlClassName2

Hi All,I'm using state machine for the first time and it was working fine until today.  I added a log history to pin point where the problem is but I don't understand why it's happening.  In my image below, the state machine starts off in the correct branch but then loops about 250 times (log history action) and never gets to the switch.This is what the log history logs 250 times.  The text you see is what I added in the log history "Pending Chief Approval Branch Before Switch"Any idea what I'm doing wrong?   Thanks!

Urgent: I have a multiple selection lookup in my list. I need to update the status of all the selected lookup values back in source list from where the values are lookup

Hi,As I see the lookup function in the form only works if the column to filter on and/or(?) value to filter on has a letter in it. I need to use it to find duplicate numbers in a single line of text field.  Is there a way to make it work with numbers as well? Example list with all column single line of text field.IDbreakfast2001apple2002coconut2003peachlookup("Example list","ID",ID,"breakfast") It wont throw error, simply not finding anything.

Hello,I am trying to set a choice field on a 2013 form using .js similar to this thread: How to set value in Choice field based on value of other choice field , but I need to be able to change the drop down with a separate field. Here is the example:Basically, if the information is correct, and they click "Yes", the Approval column will select "Approved". If the information is not correct the Close site? will show. If they need to close the site and select "Yes" on the close site column, the Approval column will changed to "Closed Site". My Variables are set up as such:Information Correct Column = varYesNoClose Site? column = varCloseApproval column - varApprovalI can get one column to change the Approval column, but I have not been able to get them both to work.Here is my code:NWF.FormFiller.Events.RegisterAfterReady(function() {NWF$('#'+varYesNo).change(function(){if (NWF$('#'+varYesNo).val("Yes")){NWF$('#'+varApproval).val ("Approved");}});NWF$('#'+varClose).change(function(){if(NWF

Dear Community,I am experiencing some annoying errors which to I cannot find explanations nor solutions:a) Error: "Workflow failed to run" after a task has been delegated -> I cannot find any additional information to this issue from the logs (I do not have access to the server side logs). I found the following link, but cannot test if it help. I have forwarded the request to the administration but not sure how they react. Anything I could do in the WF design to avoid this?b) "Workflow failed unexpectedly": List-Workflow that runs when a item is added fails before the Filter (first step fo the Workflow) is run. Again no error codes etc. to explain why this happens. c) The workflow in b) starts, and runs through the Filter. After the filter I am changing a attribute so that the same item will not pass the filter again. After some minutes the WF decides to run the Filter again, and the WF ends as the conditions are no longer met. I would be happy to hear any of your feedback! Bests,Pa

On a form, I want to create a hyperlink to open an email directed to a person whose name/email is a person/group field in the list.The problem I am running into, is how to use an item property in a hyperlink, which appears to need to be created using the label field.

Hi,I have a tasklist containing the columns HoursWorked and TotalHoursWorked.I want the column TotalHoursWorked to be updated each time you add HoursWorked. For exampleWeek 1; adds 5h to HoursWorked. TotalHoursWorked updates to 5hWeek 2: adds 7h to HoursWorked. TotalHoursWorked updates to 12hEach time you edit the task the field for HoursWorked should be empty.Do anybody have any suggestions on how I do this? I'm new to Nintex but have done some simple workflows before.One more thing I have problems with is that I also want a summary of all the hours worked in a project. That means summmary of all the tasks in my Task list belonging to a certain project. I know that I can create a view in the task list that group and sum on project number, but I want the total sum to turn up in my Project list where I have all my project listed with Planned hours and Hours worked. The column Project.No in my Task list is a lookup from the Project list.Appreciate the help./Amie

When attempting to authorize edition changes in SalesForce, the process gets stuck at the loading screen after hitting Allow in the pop-up prompt to authorize use.

Hi. I am trying to work on a specific field on a Nintex 2010 form for a SharePoint On-Premise list that is supposed to be enabled only if the user is part of a group, Web Ops Members, and if the value of another field, that is actually a lookup, on the said form is true. I tried two ways, but both of them do not work.First approach is creating a rule on a control, check the Disable box and setting this condition:JobType2-v2=='1;#File Upload (pdf, ppt, xls, other)' && Current User!=IsMemberOfGroup(Web Ops Members)This does not seem to work, so I tried another approach. The second approach is to tweak the setting of the control. I went to Appearance > Enabled, choose Expression on the dropdown and tried this condition:fn-Or(fn-And(fn-IsMemberOfGroup(Web Ops Members),Equals(JobType2-v2,'1;#File Upload (pdf, ppt, xls, other)'),Not(Equals(JobType2-v2,'1;#File Upload (pdf, ppt, xls, other)')))This does not work too. Can someone tell me what am I doing wrong or if there another app
