Hello,I want to know whose account does Nintex use to trigger schedule workflows? And is it possible I can change it to use 'Site Collection Adminstrator' account?

Dear All,I am having sharepoint list which is developed with nintex form , And I had given the description to controls .Now , My client wants to hide the description when he is viewing the items in display mode which is not necessary .Can any one help me how can I do this , Because I tried to hide via rules . But found luck.

Good day,I have a few of my users that is getting an Access Denied error when they are trying to setup Task Delegation before the holiday period.I read on a blog that as soon as a user has read access to the site, he or she will have access to the site settings under _layouts*  and this is where the Nintex views are  ( _layouts/NintexWorkflow/DelegationView.aspx) but this seems not to be the case as my users are able to open the intranet and then select the delegation option...which means they have at least read access.Does anyone know how to access these views or how to grant specific permissions for the Task Delegation function directly?  Or maybe there is a different solution for problem.Kind regards,Francois

Hey folks!I'm struggling with an issue regarding photo size. We use DocGen, which won't allow us to use photos over 5MB (nor should it), and since contractors submit, it's a struggle to ensure they are always submitting the right sizes. I'd initially tried JavaScript to restrict to 5MB, but that only works on desktop. Also, it's kind of not as helpful as it could be.I'm wondering if anyone has a suggestion on a web service out there that could grab images that are over 5MB and resize them? I already have a workflow that checks file size and alerts the user if it's too large, but since a report is generated and goes out every night, and many clock-out as they've finished for the day, this isn't super useful. I could alert them immediately but they're not always at a computer where they COULD resize. So an automated approach would be best.Thoughts?Thanks folks!rhia

Hello,Does anybody know how can I perform a "Submit and Duplicate " action on my form. What I want to do is that if user hits "Submit and Duplicate" after the item's saved, form still remains opened and some values from the saved form must be transferred to the new one. Guess this should be done using JavaScript but can't figure that out Thanks

Dear All,I am having List with only One Column named "Category" and Enabled the List "ID" .Now , I would like to get the List ID which I had enabled on the Nintex form which it is missing.Can any one help me how can I do this

i want to add a border around the date field in Nintex forms as it is possible for title fields.Title fields and all other controls have a css class "ms-rtestate-field" which will set this border correct, but the date fields have no specific class or id i can use. Also if add an css class in the control setting in Nintex Forms, the class isn't available in the code.Does anyone has an idea how i can add a border to the date field?

Dear All,I am infant to Nintex Forms and today I had developed my first nintex forms !   .Now , I need to get the Pop up on button(Save Button) click as "data saved successfully" on Submitting the SP List .Can any one please guide me how can I do this.

Hi AllI asked this question at the end of an answred thread ( https://community.nintex.com/message/73682-re-print-a-js-var-value-to-a-single-line-text-box-nintex-forms?commentID=7368… ) but I am having a lot of pains with incorporating JavaScript into Nintex forms. I have some form fields that are assigned variable names that start with nField...(Nintex field).I have written a script that works in standard html/JS but refuses to work in Nintex Forms. I have a button that triggers the function from the script but the page just reloads/resets which so far, through testing, appears to be an indication that Nintex is not able to handle the JavaScript that is being called.  There are some script specific variable used for storing values for a calculation in the script that are not in the form.The idea is that the user inputs the information in the fields and then clicks a button to get a recommendation based on those choices. There are quite a few rules hat determine what recommendation the

I am trying to have a list view dynamically refresh on my form. We currently have a modal pop-up appear to input new information, and I want that new list item to appear without having to refresh the entire page. I've searched for several hours, and have not found anything that has worked for my particular issue... Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

I have a date/time field I want to populate once "yes" is answered to another field.  I have the below workflow:RUN IF = QA Review = YesCALCULATE DATE = both "Use date when action is executed" and "Include time" are checked.  Store Date in QADate variable.SET FIELD VALUE = Set "QA Review Date Stamp" equals Workflow Data QADate.It works, except the time always say 12:00 AM!  Why would this be?  I have also tried calculated value to formatDate(QA Review, "mm dd yyyy hh:ss tt), but the time never changes from 12:00 AM.Please advise.Thank you!

HalloIch würde gerne mit Nintex Workflow 2013 neu erstellte Elemente genehmigen (Sharepoint).Wenn ich jedoch den Link anklicke kommt folgende Meldung:Ich bin auf der Seite Vollberechtigt du die Berechtigungen werden vererbt.Danke

Hello,Does anyone have a link to some step-by-step instructions to getting started using Nintex with Microsoft Exchange (or other email software) on a SharePoint 2013 virtual machine? I have searched everywhere and still am unable to find a good document that includes the configuration of SP2013 for email, Microsoft Exchange, Nintex workflow all on one virtual development environment. Seems like it is not well documented so I am preparing to blog about how to do this in the future.I have a MSDN subscription but no information what needs to be configured to get Nintex Workflow and Nintex forms to work all on one virtual machine without having to use a real production environment for the email notifications (if that is even possible).Thank you for your time.

We have admin assistants who need to delegate their manager's task to someone else, but they're not able to since it seems like the only people that can modify a task are the very ones the task is assigned to. Is there a way for the admin assistants to delegate a task on behalf of their managers besides logging in with their manager's account?

I would like to know how to create a next and previous button that saves and move to the next or previous records in the list.  I have the previous and next buttons working, I just cant get it to save the record.

On a SharePoint library workflow, in O365, on my initiation screen I have a text variable that I want to make required, but don't see any handy button that makes it so, like the people/group or choice variables. Is this possible? Am I missing something?

I am very new to Nintex, working on my second workflow and I've hit a wall in the best way to begin my workflow. On my initial Nintex form the user will select a report type and based on the report type selected they are assigned a series of tasks with other forms to complete, and once completed, sent to a manager for approval. My only issue is how do I begin my workflow. My initial thought was to create a variable and set a condition based on that variable, but my colleague believes Parallels will give us the desired outcome. I'm at a loss. Any ideas on this or any other workflow actions I should consider is greatly appreciated. 

I've created a field in my SP Library called 'Change of Details View'. I want to update the field to '1' so that the Workflow will send an email with a link to a different InfoPath view. However when I set try to configure the Set A Field action it's not showing me the correct fields. it's showing:which looks like a much earlier version of the library fields. It's not showing many of the fields I've added subsequently. Is it cached? How do I get it to list the current fields?Thanks in advance.

I've got a repeating section that contains a panel, (only one panel), which I want to Hide based on a condition. My condition is based of a single line of text that I calculate (returns the difference between months) & a checkbox. If the checkbox is yes & the single line of text value is greater than 1, then hide the panel.The OOTB show/hide rules are hiding the fields but are not trimming the spacing. I learnt that this is a known bug (show/hide panels don't work in repeating sections) and if I use responsive design, that should fix it. But we have an old 2013 on-prem version. there is no option to update it now. What I'mtrying to do, is apply a CSS on condition, which should Hide the panel and trim the white space when display = "none"; I just can't figure how to call or apply that CSS/function on the conditions I need in runtime. I wrote a javascript but it doesn't seem to be firing the rule. It is running fine - up until I display the alert, the last two lines are not firin

In production environment, we have a SharePoint site with some Nintex 2007 workflows. Now we need to replicate the production site for testing purposes.The target server already had Nintex Installed when I restored the SharePoint backup.Unfortunately, it turned out Nintex license has expired on it so we're a little paralyzed.The workflows seem to have been moved with the backup, however some workflow steps in Nintex designer show exclamation marks with this tooltip:queryListActivity1 of type Nintex.Workflow.Activities.QueryListActivity is unrecognized by Nintex WorkflowWhen I activate Nintex license, how can I ensure that Nintex workflow is deployed correctly? I see the following options:copy Nintex database to the new server and try hook it up with Nintex instance (how?);save existing workflows on source server using Nintex Export feature and upload them on target server.What is the best one, or are there any other options available?

Hi Folks,I have  a very critical client requirement. Client have multiple tasks in SharePoint OOTB Workflow Task list. Client requires bulk approval on the tasks.   - I have configured a Nintex approval workflow for a custom list. I have then created a ribbon custom action called “Bulk Approval” on the Tasks list' (where Nintex workflow tasks are queued up). Upon clicking the 'Bulk Approval', i am able to get the item Id for the selected Items.  I am trying to set the Nintex workflow status as Approved or Rejected for all the selected tasks. Can you please advise how to get the Nintex workflow object and set the status as Approved or Rejected , using jQuery or any web service ?Also what I found is the web service  'http://{server}/{site}/_vti_bin/NintexWorkflow/workflow.asmx' is not available for o365 /SharePoint online site.  Could you please suggest a solution for this requirement ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks.
