So I created a site workflow that sends an email whenever a reminder date = current date. I wanted the email to be sent to what was inputted on the InfoPath form, which have 3 different email fields that need to be submitted. I wasn't sure if I should make a list query action and use the for each action or if I have to input the emails manually.  Thanks

Hello,I am trying to set up a form in Nintex Mobile and I am experiencing a strange behavior in my cascading lookups. The set up is this:   Lookup 1: Select Location   Repeating section:      Lookup 2: Select Project [filtered by the Location selected above]The second lookup works perfectly in the first row of the repeating section, but if I add another row, the second lookup shows no values. I have tried putting both lookup 1 and 2 in the repeating section and I get the same result: the first row of the repeating section functions properly but if another row is added the second does not work.I have also tried pulling the result of Lookup 1 into a calculated value and pointing Lookup 2 to filter on it instead.  My theory was hiding that calculated value in the repeating section ensured the value to filter from would be included in each row of the repeating section.  In this case none of the lookups in the repeating section work.Has anyone experienced this before?  Any ideas on making i

I have a requirement to build a copy item feature that copies an item from List A to List A.  However, the caveat is that the user would like to "select" which fields to copy.  For example, the form has 20 fields, they would like to select which of the 20 they want to "keep" and copy / create new item via something like a check boxMy initial thought was to store the source items columns in WF variables and then use the Request Data feature to have the options listed to select (checkboxes).  What happens next is where I get lost.  It's my understanding that the values would go to a Task list that Request Data users which can be a temporary holding area.  From there, I would then copy the values back to List A but not sure how it would work or if it's even possible.Thank you Nintex community! =)

We are having some issues with one of our SharePoint sites getting hung up (Showing "Working on it..." when you try to access the site) and we are trying to narrow it down to what could be causing this issue.  Someone else built this workflow in our company and I wanted to see if you guys saw anything wrong with the way this is laid out:It goes down the Check Status state first then to the In Process state....my concern is the set item permission with no delay or anything behind it, but wanted to see if anyone else saw anything that might be a concern with the way this is built.

I am able to configure an LDAP Query in my workflow and test it and execute and return results but as soon as I publish it the workflow fails on the step and says "Connection unsuccessful".  I have tried adding my credentials and and bundling the steps in an action set and running under the context of the workflow publisher but no luck.  I also tried changing the various authentication types in the configuration.  Anyone have any thought?

Sorry to a newbie (to Nintex and SharePoint) question, but once a form has been submitted, where would users (ideally a group) go to view their open forms? I am sending an email with the Flexi Task, but was wondering if the open forms could be displayed on a group/department page?

Hi,I have a workflow that looks for employees in which their contract has expired, I want to send an email to the owner to see if he/she approves or rejects to rehire that person, I'm using a Flexi Task action and that works, but I want it to send the notification to all the owners at the same time according to quantity of employees the workflow finds.The current workflow I have sends the notification to the owner and that's fine, but it needs to wait until that owner approves or rejects the request to move to the other item for approval or rejection (the owners are different people) and I don't want that. I want the workflow to send all the notifications when it finds all the employees that needs to be rehire. Should I use Run parallel actions? Thanks for your help!

Hi guys,I currently have a loop in my workflow for List A that looks through the repeater data in the form and creates list items in List B. Since this is a loop, it creates one item at a time in List B as it goes through this loop. Is there a way that the information from this loop can be saved and List B gets updated in one go, like mass update?Thanks guys.

I am using SharePoint Nintex 2013 OOTB. I built a Nintex list workflow where all the generated tasks are saved under Workflow Task List. I want Workflow Task List to display some of the items from the main list, such as applicant's name, surname, Request ID therefore admin can locate and action them easily directly from the Task List.I created a Lookup column in the Task List and selected Request ID information to be collected from the main list "Accreditation Application". However it doesn't display any value. Can you please advise what am I missing?I added screen prints for the create look up column action and the Task List.

Dear experts,I have built a form with a parent / child structure using the list view control. The list view cntrol shows all the documents 'attached' to the parent form. I added a  javascript button 'add new document' who opens a modal dialog to upload a document and pass the ID of the parent item as a query string.My question is that if we can use jquery to refresh only the list view control instead of refreshing the whole form? after uploading a document I need to refresh the control without loss of any unsaved data.Best regards,Zhaoshuo

I have a form which has fields inside panels to for validation/hide rules.  When I view the form in a New state it looks fine, but when I open an existing item, it scrunches all the fields together.  Additionally, and this may be another discussion topic, the rules to hide specific fields are not working consistently.  When they display, they are either scrunched on top of other fields, or data below the hidden fields is moved up and overtop of the hidden fields that are now displaying.Images:New Entry:Existing Entry:We are starting to have more and more issues with the form and the rules to hide/unhide fields depending on answers from other fields.What is the best way to resolve this?  Is this a common occurrence?Thank you,Christine

I would like to fill a Nintex form in a document library and create a record/item without having to upload a document. Could you help me understand if there is any means to achieve this? If this is not a possibility, what I am looking at is to create a dummy document/placeholder to create a record/item in the document library. I have an existing document set content type as well if that helps. Please advise. Regards,Monica

HiI thought I'd actually plan this out instead of lurching straight into this!I have an InfoPath form with two different view, a Design and a Check view. When the Design view has been completed the Check view gets sent. The Check View has 40 drop down boxes with 'Pass', 'Fail' an 'N/A' . If any of those 40 drop downs are 'Fail' is needs to get bounced back to the user to amend the Design view until it's correct.What would people recommend the best way to approach this would be? I've got some ideas around a loop but want some advice before I start, as this could get very complicated very quickly!Thanks in advance!

Hi,I found this solution to schedule Nintex workflows on SharePoint 2010, https://community.nintex.com/community/build-your-own/blog/2015/04/24/schedule-nintex-2010-site-workflow but I want to know how run this workflow every day and also check in the list if the date field is equal to today or if there are 30 days remain for that date.

HelloI have a workflow that updates several fields in item using 'Update Item' action.The fields are with different types (choice, number, single line text).some times the workflow works fine and sometimes it gives an error "The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information" even that this is not the issue:if I re-run the same workflow on the same item immediately, it will work just fine with the same data.I tried several approaches and they all gave the same result (sometimes it works and sometimes i get this error):- update several fields at once (same action)- update each field separately- use 'Set Field Value' instead of 'Update item'I didn't find anything helpful in SP logs.One thing is sure: this is not "because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information" since it is work on the second time.Do you know what can be the issue / how to resolve it / how to work it aroundThank
