Hello Folks, Does anyone know when would K2 be BPMN complaint ? Any links /docs available , which talk about blackpearl product roadmap ? Thanks & Regards,Gaurav

Has anyone else had this situation? I am not able to open an existing Responsive Form or create a new Responsive Form. I was working on a Responsive Form yesterday afternoon with no issues. However, this morning, when I opened this same form, this is what I saw. This also appears on existing Responsive Forms that I open.  As you can see, there are not even form controls listed on the side. If I try to create a new Responsive Form, the control spins endlessly. The Classic Form works fine. I have shut down my browser, restarted my computer, and even rebooted my computer and nothing changes. I am working in Internet Explorer. This is in O365. When sharing this situation with other people in my area, they were able to open the Responsive Form from both the site and from a link.  Any suggestions?Thank you.

 Symptoms  After deleting choice columns from a SharePoint list and regenerating the SmartObjects, the SmartObjects associated with the choice columns are removed. When editing a workflow based on the library, the errors "SmartObject [column name] could not be found." and "SmartObject does not exist on the server. Name: [SmartObject name]"  Diagnoses  This has been identified as a bug.  Resolution To work around this, after deleting the column, save the workflow as a .wkprx file, open it in Notepad or similar app to view the XML. Locate and delete the applicable XML node(s), save, and redeploy the workflow.   

I am fairly new to writing Nintex workflows. Is there a way to do a parallel workflow in Office 365? I am wanting two or more people to review a document at the same time. Then is there a way to only notify the person(s) who has(have) not completed the task? Any help would be appreciated.Thank you.

I am using the Start a Task Process action in my workflow. I am using Nintex O365. I am using the Responsive Form. This is the initial email that is produced from the action.. I have two questions:1. How do I go about formatting the date and removing the time?2. The text circled in red is the default text. Is there a way to customize that text?Thank you.

Hi I have a list of contacts that are used in a look up in two different list libraries. As they are on different sites I have had to have two copies of the list, one on each site. This is ok, until one is updated. Is there a way to sync them?I have created a WF to update the item on the 2nd list if ti exists, but not sure how to map this for new items? Also how do you say delete the old entry on the 2nd list? Is it possible to do a duplicate search and remove the older item?Many thanks

See title.  The team that manages our Sharepoint instance is making this migration and I'm concerned that they may not have tested all the Nintex functionality under the new version.  If there are specific concerns, I'd like to raise them now.  Anything I should be asking?

Hi all,I want to use a managed metadata field for a rule within my form.Unfortunately after naming my managed metadata object within forms it does not appear in my list of named itemsMy (named) object:Looking into my formular builder does not reflect my object:No "XXXXXXXX" there. Isn't it possible to use managed metadata fields for formulas?Edit [06.04.18 17:45]:I am talking about SharePoint 2013, with NINTEX online there is no problem!Cheersmai-kel

Hi All,is it possible for us to filter the sharepoint calendar list based on the entered start time & end time in the nintex form either using the formula or list lookup option in the form?Thanks

HiI've have found that my previously working travel form is throwing a workflow approval error ever since I added the Attachments control to the form. If a user submits a form without an attachment it still works perfectly well. However, as soon as a document is attached, the initiator receives an email with subject 'Workflow errored', body: "Error in request approval action. Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))".Googling this error has led me to check the permissions on the workflow task list - everyone has 'Approve' permissions.For the list permissions everyone has 'contribute with no delete'.Any ideas what has caused this? In the workflow request approval I tried changing the item permissions to Approve from Unchanged but this hasn't helped.It's definitely a permissions issue but I'm not sure what else to change.Thanks

I am using Flexi- Task to request approval from multiple people with 3 outomes: Approve, Reject and Abstain. How can I allow the workflow to run until completion regardless of the participants response? I want to track everyones response and evaluate it later and not have Nintex answer anytime one person Abstains or a majority has responded to the task.

Hey folks!I don't use O365 too much, and I'm trying to grab the XML from NF Form Data from another list item.What's happening is that it comes back as "Null" every time. Even if I just do Query List > Filter on ID with an ID I know exists > Get column "NF Form Data" ... nothin'.Thoughts?Thanks!rhia

Hello,I connected my Nintex form to the SQL database, for some reason, the data is encapsulated by a question mark or it has a trailing question mark? Any ideas why?Thank you.

Hello Just build a new SharePoint 2016 farm and installed Nintex Forms & Workflows, made a "default" installation (created new NintexContent database and mapped it to SP content Database etc. - so its all 'Empty* - a 'clean' install, and its running fine    Instead of re-building the workflows, I now need to move all the "old" Workflows from the *old" SharePoint 2013 farm to the new SharePoint 2016 farm. What is the recommended approach for this? Do I at the "SQL level" - create a backup of the 2013 'old' Nintex database and restore/overwrite the new Nintex 2016 content database?  Do I use a 3' party tool - like ShareGate, and manually migrate each list?Other suggestion? Anyone that can provide a "how-to" get this done the best way?   Thanks

I have written a rule for my Nintex form to hide a panel if a yes/no control is empty (the default is no.) When the person clicks the box for yes, the panel appears. That's great. However, if they change their mind and change the choice back to no, the panel remains. What do I need to do to toggle the panel between the yes or no response?Thank you.

So we have a user who is creating new list and new item Nintex forms and she is getting the question about "Class or Responsive form" twice.  It ask the user when they first create it the form for a responsive or classic form...they select responsive form and build the form. Once they've completed the form and submitted it, it ask them again for responsive or classic? It never ask them again after this....It only ask the first time before they create the form and then after they submit the form they've finished.Anyone know why it would asking this twice?

We have had a migration from SharePoint 2013 to SharePoint 2016. We are using email enabled lists in our environment. Since the migration workflows do not start anymore when items are created by mail. This behavior was not the case in SharePoint 2013 last week. Has anyone seen equal behavior in his farm? Workflow in the lists start as expected when creating new items "by hand". But when items are created by mail the workflow does not start.Anyone any suggestions how to get by this problem?Solution (see answer below for more info)$spWebService = [Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPWebService]::ContentService $spWebService.DeclarativeWorkflowAutoStartOnEmailEnabled = $true  $spWebService.Update()

I'm using Nintex Workflow 2013, Version: 3.2.4.0 - English. I have the issue, that I get the notification mail, that an item has been created many times. The workflow is based on a user defined site content type.  I have the same issue in every list, that I created using this user defined site content type.
