I am trying to delete a variable in a workflow because it is not longer needed.  Workflow designer won't let me delete the variable because  it says the variable is in use by a Initiate Workflow action.     I can't find any action labeled Imitate Workflow.Any ideas?

I have a form with a Repeating Section. A workflow runs on submission with an Update Item action that updates a field in the list. This deletes the contents of the repeating field.This isn't entirely unexpected as the Repeating Section requires a Multiple lines of text Column with Append Changes to Existing Text. As we all know, when a list item contains a column like this, it gets updated each time the list item is updated. Even if nothing is entered into the column. Its been like this all the way back to SP 2007.How do we overcome this?We are running SP2013 on premise

I'm really new to this and am looking for some direction.  I'm creating a workflow in the 2010 version for SharePoint 2010.  I want the workflow to update a field on the form when an approval or rejection occurs in the workflow.  I've looked at the actions "set field value" and "update item".  I'm just not seeing how to update a field using these actions.  Can anyone give me some direction on the proper action to use or how to properly use these actions to change the value of a field on a SharePoint form? 

I have List Lookup fields in my nintex form. Once the form is completed and submitted, when I view the form it displays with hyperlinks on the Nintex form. When I click on the hyperlinks it navigates to the Lookup values list.I want remove or disable the lookup hyperlinks on the nintex form once it is submitted.

Recently I updated my NW 2013 latest version on development server.I did not update my form, the version is  Nintex Forms 2013 ( 2.7.0.0 )The workflow working fine so far, but when I try to modify my development server workflow, I found some functions missing in  "Edit task form " and also can't save my changes etc calculated value in the "edit task form".  See the screen shot below. The first figure is my development server. The highlight parts are the production screen shot which are missing on my Development server. You can see the difference. This makes my very frustrated, since I need to do the development. Any idea?

I am new to the community and I’m not sure if I am posting this in the right place.  I am using Nintex Forms 2013 in a SharePoint 2013 environment.  I have a Nintex list form that contains a list lookup field displayed as a drop down list.  The drop down list gets its values from another list on the same site.  The reference list has only one column…the value I am wanting the user to select from. Here’s my problem…  The list of values is rather large and I am trying to improve the user experience by giving them a fast way to get to the item(s) they want.  The current behavior of the field is that they can enter the first letter of the entry they want to choose and the cursor will jump to the first entry in the drop down list that starts with that letter.  Following that, if they enter a second letter, it simply jumps to the first enter that starts with that letter.  I would like to change the behavior or come up with an alternate solution that would allow the users to enter two or more

Hello, I am very new to Nintex forms and I have a task to create form that will have three checkboxes. In which when one is selected it will display panel1, when the second one is selected it will display panel2, and finally when the third one is checked is will display both panel1 and panel2. I have the rules setup for both panels 1 and 2, i;m just not sure how to go about adding a rule to panel 3 to show/hide it.I was even wondering if i can have a rule setup to where if checkbox3 is selected to select checkboxes 1 and 2 which will show both panels 1 and 2. But that's just me thinking since i don't know what would be the best approach. Any ideas? Let me know if this needs clarification.Thanks in advance.

Hi,I'm following Ben Stori‌ blog Get List Item Attachments using Web Services  to get the name of an attachment from a workflow task form so that it can be used later on in the workflow for building a hyperlink to it.I'm getting a "Bad Request" response.

Hi,Im facing this issue and Im not abale to resolve it.Someonr could help me ?thanks.Regards.

Good evening,I'm trying to hide a panel if a text box contains a value (any value) and I can only get the opposite to happen.I have a text field called SRPNo. If the field has not value the panel named DivAuth needs to be completed. If a value is entered into the SRPNo field the DivAuth panel needs to be hidden.The only thing I can make work is isNullOrEmpty(SRPNo) however this gives me the opposite of what I want. One site I found referened using SPRNo!=" which is supposed to hide the panel if the field is not blank, however when I add this rule and test it the entire form does not show up.Any ideas would be appreciated.ThanksAndrew

I have created some Reuse Terms from Term Store Management in SharePoint Online Site. I have created one list with Managed Metadata Type column. On this list i have attached Nintex form. In that form i can create New item by providing Reuse Term but when i am editing same list item i get error "There are unresolved entries" with Red border in managed metadata column. I am not able to find the solution of this error. Please help me out if anyone know the solution.Thanks.

This in-line function will replace special characters that are past to a work flow data field and embedded into an email. For example if you have a rich text field from Smart Forms and that value gets passed to a workflow using a data field.     If you use that datafield in an email,  you will notice that in the View flow the datafield may look like this :      <p> nbsp;Testnbsp;</p>     My inline function will replace certain special characters to create the following:     <p> Test </p>        Which will diplay the email correctly. 

I have an different issue.If i create an item today and approve all the task today itself, there is no problem in the flow.But if i create an item today and if i try to approve tomorrow, i am getting workflow errored .Is it because the idle time is more? i have added pause and commit pending changes above the set field value, but still no luck.Please do the needful.

I'm using Nintex 2010 and SharePoint 2010 and trying to redirect the user back to the list after approval. I find this answer on here but I can't find the Approval URL when I go to Insert Reference with the task, do I need a different approach or am I doing it wrong? 

Hi at all,For my current workflow project, I need a form where the user selects some values from a drop down list.With this value, I need to do a lookup to a sharepoint list querying a yes/no field. Depending on the result, I need to hide some fields.To do so, I created a formatting/design rule and use this formulaequal(lookup("MyListName", "Title", NextState, "close_workflow"), True)So there is a list named MyListName (Display Name, internal name is different) with an column Title. I need the element from this list where Title = NextState (Workflow variable) and I need the Field "close_workflow" of this element. If this hav value Yes, some formatting should appear.But this lookup doesn't work. I used development toolbar to get note what happen. It always say:12:55:25.294 [MyListName-cbbd10a1-a927-4ac7-8196-c4d292e4b4dc] - A request for SharePoint data failed. Error details: Die Liste 'MyListName' ist in der Website mit der URL 'https://herecomesmyurl' nicht vorhanden. 1 RuntimeFunctio

I have 2 lists: RequestTypes has 2 columns -  Type (string) and Task Type Builder (person).Requests - I have a column that is a Lookup to the RequestTypes list.  In the lookup, under "Add a column to show  each of these additional fields:" the Type Builder field does not show up.  Is this because the field is a person?I also tried to set a Variable to this field, but it does not seem to find it.  The variable is vTaskTypeBuilder is type "Person or Group".  Here is what my "Set a Variable" configure looks like:Do you know if a variable can be set to a person in a list?  Or why does a person not show up as a column to show after a lookup?

I have two lists that I am working with. The main one has my Nintex form on it. The form has multiple people picker fields on it. What I need to do is after the form is submitted, I need to see if the people entered on the form exist in a secondary list, if they are not there already, they need to be added, if they are there, then do nothing. I was trying to push all of the names into a collection variable and then query the secondary list to see if any of the names from the collection exist on the list but I can not figure out how to make this work.Any ideas?Thanks!
