Is there a way to change the order of fields within a Task list?  (Similar to changing the order of fields in a Custom List - by going to List Settings and clicking "Column ordering".)The reason I want to change the order, is that when the user clicks the task, the "Show More" button must be clicked to show all of the fields.  I'd like one of these fields to be shown without having to click "Show More".  (For now, I am not using Nintex Forms -- just using out of the box forms).Does this make sense?

Hello,We are going through our Windows 10 migration. We have a list of users with an anticipated migration date. I would like to query that list once a day to send an email to our department with a list of users who are due for migration the next day. I just need someone to point me in the right direction and give me the design on how to accomplish this. I appreciate any assistance, thanks!

Hi!I have a DateOnly field in standard SP list, which contains date: 13.10.1988, for exampleSPWeb (where my list located) have UTC+7 timezone in site regional settings (/_layouts/15/regionalsetng.aspx)So, the UTC value in database looks like:<datetime1>1988-10-12T16:00:00</datetime1>Next, in workflow I'm getting date field from SQL database (using Execute SQL action) which is "date" type, looking like a '1988-10-13' and then I save it to Nintex Date and Time variable.And finally, I'm trying to compare (using Set a condition action) this two dates: list date vs SQL date, which are obviously equal:condition looks like:It worked nice:until I've changed my user regional settings from Russian (locale 1049) to English (USA, locale 1033) and tried to re-run workflow under this user account. I discovered that inline FormatDate function doesn't work anymore:It looks like Nintex doesn't recognize its own inline functions and trying to compare text strings which is different.Then I tr

I have a workflow in a document library, it was set to start workflow when item created or modified. It worked fine when I added a new document or edited the document property. But if I added the same document again, and overwrite the existing document in the library, change a field value, the workflow started but the item field value was still the old value. I have to pause the workflow for 2 minutes, the field will get the new value in the workflow. Just wondering if this is an issue with my own environment or anybody had this experience.Thank you!Alex

I created a list of approver(6) that are read from an active director group.   I have three outcomes for the approver to choose.  Approve, Deny and Abstain.   I included an update item within the flexi task, that updates the status based on their selection.  Does the flexi task action keep track of all approvers before it updates items?

I'm trying to find the Form Settings Page so I can set a redirect according to this answer. I can't find it! Any screen grabs that anyone could share? I'm using SharePoint 2010 and Nintext 2010.

I  my experience Surveys are difficult to extract data from in SharePoint. Setting up the survey is easy enough but extracting the data to another list seems to be a bear.I've had a client who wants to add some additional columns as a follow-up or response to some the survey answers.My only suggest was to create another list from the Excel Export and import it into another list. In the other list, I can add additional columns.What I don't like about my solution is that it is manual and requires a re-import every time I want new data. Now a Nintex Form can be formatted and makes a nice container for looking at individual survey's and the response.Anyone else tangle with this beast. I see no easy ways to get workflows into survey lists.

Hi community,How can I alter the standard error message here? I need it in gerrrrrrman.Cheersmai-kel

Here's what if done so far:I have a SharePoint list with 3 content types (Item, Event, Event2). Each content type has different columns.I can change the Item-Form (New, Edit, View) for each content type.I added a new workflow to the list and created a flexi task.Next I edited the task form and created a new nintex form. Here i can only choose the list colum Title. Is it somehow possible to create different task-forms based on the content type?Thanks for the help

Hi allMy question is what's the easiest way to retrieve data from an sql database and populate a field in a form?Example: User types project code "12345"User clicks "Find" buttonForm retrieves and writes the result into the project name field on the form: "12345 - Project A"I can see an SQL request control but not sure if this can all be done by configuring that or if it's more complicated.version: Enterprise 2013 (2.10.2.0)Thanks

All I have a workflow where I set the Employee name into a variable by using the Employee Name (people picker field) display name option. I have been receiving requests to send emails and only use the first name (not first and last). Is there an easy way to do this?

I'm working on a form where the start date field should always end date, and set the values equal if the user changes one. The following JavaScript is what I'm trying to use, but getting an errorNWF$(document).ready(function () { var calStartDate = NWF$('#' + varStartDate); var calEndDate = NWF$('#' + varEndDate); //alert(calStartDate.val()); //alert(calEndDate.val()); calStartDate.change(function () { calEndDate.val = calStartDate.val; });calEndDate.change(function () { calStartDate.val() = calEndDate.val(); });});

I am trying to create a Nintex workflow in SharePoint 2013. I have an existing task list that I want to use but this task list is not showing up under workflow settings. How do I get my task list to be selectable? I have tried adding the Nintex Workflow Task content type on the list but still no luck.

I have a dropdown on a form with three choices. Let's say the dropdowns are gifts1. 65" TV2. Wine3. 1962 Chevy NovaWhat I would like is based on the choice a check box on the form is automatically selected.The check boxes could be:Best BuyCostcoCarsforSale.com

THis is really strange. I have a workflow that has a client event with approve/reject actions. They can see the task in workspace, but when they open it, message says, THere is no worklist items for this user, or the item has already been actioned.I can redirect to myself and can open the items just fine. but when I redirect abck to him, again there is nothing he can do.Another clue is that in the task list web part in sharepoint, there is no tasks waiting for him. I had redirected the user to a testuser , verified that i could see the tasks, but when he logged in as the same suer, he cannot see the tasks in the task list web part.Very frustrating.Dave Loomis! where are you? ;)

We've got a form that requires some payment options, the business area doesn't have paypal nor using any electronic formats for payments ... yet.All they got is a form that the submitters print, select if they want to pay by cheque/money order/mastercard/visaif by card, they keep the credit card info on the paper stored somewhere... then may be shredded after. I was asked to give some ideas on how to put the payment information, scanning cheques/ having those cheques uploaded somewhere secure using the Nintex forms in 2016.May be securily store the credit card info until the payment is done then delete the item/form. any suggestions? or thoughts about doing payments in general through the Nintex forms. I've found couple of questions asked before but got no answers. Your prompt response is appreciated, I need to get this out in the next couple of days. 

The system that my team uses copied issues from a list on one site to a list on another site. The problem is that there are now overlapping IDs with the old items brought over from the old site and new items being created in the new site. They created a new column and copied the old IDs into the new site since they track items by the ID. So hey are using two different columns: 'ID' and 'Old ID'. There is a third column, 'WS ID', which is a calculated field that uses ID in it, but the calculation does not work. I understand that you can use ID in a calculated field. Is there some way to save the ID number to another field so that I can use this new field in a calculated field?

I have a couple of sites that are not displaying correctly on the 'View Database Mappings' page. They are showing the old mappings. They are showing correctly on the 'Nintex Workflow Database Setup' and on the 'Manage Database Mappings' screens. One of the sites was changed a year ago and the other one yesterday. They were set to use the new BD by setting the new mapping on the 'Manage Database Mappings' page.I ran queries on the Nintex DB setup yesterday and there's nothing there so it's clearly not being used.I also ran queries against the Nintex DB mapped a year ago and that one too has no records so it is still using the old database.Any idea why this might not take hold and how I can resolve it?

New to Nintex Forms. I created a SharePoint list and generated a SharePoint Nintex Form. In part the list contains three columns concerning a person's name.First NameLast NameFull Name (calculated)The Full Name column is a calculated column with this formula: =CONCATENATE([First Name]," ",[Last Name])In my Nintex Form Controls there is no Full Name column in General, List Columns or SharePoint.Where did it go or why does it not show? Unsure and so far unable to find a good explanation this site or any other; just lots of examples about how to add, subtract, multiply, etc, numbers (or dates) from two fields/columns, etc, in a third--not seemingly my objective but could be for being new not see the solution. I cannot find any postings on this site that explains why my calculated column is missing. I simply want to add it to my form and of course show the results when saved or edited by whatever means best suited. Thanks for the help.

Using Nintex 2016. Does anyone know where the data centers routing the externally published forms in 2016 (previously called LIVE forms) are? U.S, Russia, China..etc?!! We have some externally published forms that are available for anonymous users and they can be a bit slow to load at times.The URL's generated are under forms.nintex.com... 

I'm having issues regarding the appearance of the rows in the repeating section control when I show and hide controls in the repeating section. For example, I have a "Typical Balance" field and a "Category" field that appear if "Posting Type" equals Balance Sheet. The row appearance is fine until the hidden fields are shown.Is there some custom CSS I can apply to correct this issue?

I have an Azure SQL database and an on-premise nintex workflow environment. I would like to use an Execute SQL action to run a stored procedure (this stored procedure updates the SQL database with parameters from the list item).Is this possible?
