Is there a way to have one Flexi task but the outcomes that display are different based on which group the user/assignee is a member of?  I've tried using parallel actions before where each branch has a different tasks (request data) with different outcomes for each group. Then get the ID of the task and once one of them has been actioned then I complete the others. but it has been acting a bit funny, with overriding the completed task with the blank values (request data) task.. in addition that the ID of the task doesn't get assigned unless it has been completed. This case is a bit different, I need to show/hide different outcomes for different users but use the same flexi-task. Is it even possible? 

Hi dear community!First of all, my name is Christoph, 42 years old and i just started a job as SharePoint Consultant.

I tried using InfoPath to get a users Line Manager's name so that I could I automatically assign them a Worflow task, but I can't get it to work, so is they I can retrieve the Line Manager's name using Ninetex?

Nintex Workflow 2016 and Nintex Forms 2016 both on premise.  If I have 3 or 4 flexi-task approvals and customize the task form (Flexi-Task > Configure > Edit Task Form > Edit with Nintex Forms), I have to go into each flex-task and make the same modification so they all match.   Is there a way to re-use the same Nintex task form for all flexi-tasks in a given workflow without having to duplicate form code?Thank you

 Symptoms An HTTP 400-Bad Request error pops up when trying to view a Smartform inside the context of a SharePoint site. Diagnoses This seems to be due to the size of the Auth cookie that is created for users that are utilizing the Smartform in any way. A browser cache clear did not do the trick. Resolution The registry settings near the bottom (in the More Information section) of the following Microsoft KB seem to resolve the problem when users are using 4.6.10:https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2020943If you are experiencing this type of error on 4.6.9 when utilizing Smartforms in any way, please log a support ticket, as there is a fix available. 

I have successfully configured a Query List action to filter a list based on certain criteria. If I use the "Run Now" function within the action is displays the information correctly. In my case they are Assigned to and Title. I have these outputted to single line of text variables. I then have a Build string action which uses said variables and creates another single variable which I interest to an email. The issue is I get individual email notifications for all of the items on the list (112) rather than the 3 I want. Side note, upon logging information to history throughout the process it would seem that it logs the filtered assigned to group on items that are assigned to different groups. IE - I want to only see tasks assigned to A however within the workflow of a task assigned to B it says within the log in history task that the assigned to person is in fact A which it isn't.

Hello Community,I have an interesting request from the end user base.On my SharePoint 2013 on premise install that has Nintex Workflow 2013, we have created a PO system.Here is the question being asked from the end user:"As an end user I have created a PO. The situation of the PO has changed and I need to cancel the PO, how do I cancel the PO?"My question is, how do I give the end user the ability to cancel the PO that they have create and submitted and now has a workflow running against it?As far as I understand the end user would have to cancel the running workflow in the following method:1. The end user would have to go to the list that displays the workflow column and click on the link for the workflow that is listed as In Progress, see below:2. Once the end user finds the In Progress link and clicks it, then they have to find the "End this workflow" link in order to click it and stop the workflow, as see below:3. Once the end user has ended the workflow they now have to go and del

I am in the process of writing some job aids form company regarding Nintex forms. Where would I find documentation that does a good job of explaining the individual tabs in the Formula Builder window? I am mostly referring to the Common and Item Properties tabs; I don't use those too often. 

Hello! I am creating required rules for questions on a Nintex Form. There are 6 flows for the form. The line where I am having an issue is in the Member/Marketing/Community Org. flow. When Someone selects MMCO and then for ProjectJobType they select Advertisement the Mass Media question that was previously hidden now shows and should be required. Similarly when someone selects the call or text Automated OUtreach, the formerly hidden question about the TCPA form shows and should be required.   In the below formulas it is successfully flagging as required and is able to determine if the question is completed to move on, but, if someone selects any other job type (than those 3) the Mass Media question and TCPA form questions are still required. Please help!Whattypeofjobareyousubmitting=='Member/Marketing/Community Org.'&&ProjectJobType!='Advertisment'&&MassMediaType==''DidYouFillOutTheTCPAForm==''&&ProjectJobType!='Automated Outreach - Outgoing Call Script'||Projec

Hi All,I'm new to Nintex and i'm having an issue trying to mimic a logic rule on a previous InfoPath form using the StartsWith() function. The old infopath rule is checking to see if a single line of text field named "Pallet" does not start with the letter "P". I've created a new rule and applied to this field on my new Nintex form but its not entirely working as I expected. It does show a validation error when the string entered doesn't start with "P" but it is also showing the message when you enter "P" with any additional characters after it.Anyone know why this might be the case or what I can do to correct it?Examples:Works as expected hereValidation goes away when you enter "P"Any character or number added after P causes it to reappear.Thanks,Chris

When I look at the Workflows by Site report in a SP 2010 farm, I see several WFs displayed as GUIDS and when I click on them, I get 404 errors. How can I remove this obsolete data from this report?

Hello!With all my formula questions it was advised to me to try to break them down and test each part and as they are successful put them together. However, I can't get each part of this formula to work. I have a hidden field - Existing Material Job Number - that appears when the question update to existing job is answered as yes. I want that field to also be required if it is answered as yes. However, I can't find a formula that works appropriately. I've tried all the below and then some. Please help. I started with the Update to Existing Job being a check box and didn't get anywhere so I changed it a radio button and still haven't had any luck. UpdatetoExistingMaterial=='Yes' doesn’t recognize that it is requiredUpdatetoExistingMaterial!='Yes' recognizes that it is required but doesn’t recognize that it is completedUpdatetoExistingMaterial!='No' recognizes that it is required when yes is chosen but doesn’t recognize that it is completedUpdatetoExistingMaterial=='No' doesn’t recognize
