I have an issue that has been killing for for a couple of days now.I have a list with a form that I have modified with Nintex Forms 2013. In my form I have a List Lookup field and Calculated field, the calculated field is using the Lookup Function to provide another field value based on the result of the List Lookup selection. I have named the ListLookup field properly and everything seems fine. The problem is that regardless of what I select from the List Lookup field, my calculated field is always blank. I have tried changing field names in the calculation but they always return blank. I can't seem to find a good method for troubleshooting what may be going wrong here. I have tried looking at the IE developer panel and it shows the query firing, but doesn't indicate anything about results. My gut is telling me that this has to do with the columns that have been setup in the list, apparently there were some content types on the list at one point and as a result the internal name of th

I have a form that I am using to track progress of various tasks. The user selects from a drop down list whether the specific task is Not Started, In Progress, or Complete. It has been functioning normally for several months and suddenly is not saving any updates to the form. It will show that a user has modified the form, but no changes appear in the list view or on the form itself. Any idea what could be causing this, or how to resolve it?
Here is an issue moving controls to a wrong area
Symptoms The issue occurs in K2 4.7 when executing a SmartObject created from a SQL Stored Procedure with the SQL Server Service Broker. If one of the return properties contains a ?NULL? in a ?Number? field, a ?Object cannot be cast from DBNull to other types? error is displayed. This did not happen in K2 4.6.11 and the SmartObject worked correctly. Diagnoses Executing the Stored Procedure in SQL shows a ?NULL? as a return value in one of the fields.Executing the SmartObject in K2 4.7 using the Tester Tool gives the error. Executing the same SmartObject in K2 4.6.11 using the Tester Tool works as expected. Resolution The issue appears to happen only in K2 4.7 when a SmartObject based off a SQL Stored Procedure returns a NULL as a return value.A new bug item has been logged for our developers to investigate and address in a future update of K2.The current workaround is to set the return variable to a valid number during the execution of the Stored Procedure so that a valid number is re

Hi Everyone,Is it possible to find conflicting schedule in the Calendar App using Nintex form or Nintex workflow.What my workflow is currently doing is querying a calendar list and sending all scheduled activity for the whole week.What I want to happen is to put additional information in my notification that a specific activity is conflict with another activity.For example:Maintenance 1 - June 22, 2017 -- 8am to 5pmMaintenance 2 - June 23, 2017 -- 9am to 4pmMaintenance 3 - June 22, 2017 - 1pm to 3pmThe logic I need to create in the workflow is, If any time overlap to each other it will be considered as conflict even just by an hour.Notification Email:Maintenance 1 is conflict with Maintenance 3In regards with Nintex Form I don't have any working prototype. But if it is possible in Nintex Form I am open to suggestions.Regards,Rogelio
We are using Nintex on Prem.We have a Nintex form, when we submit it it writes to a List.The List fires off a Workflow that creates a Flexi Task and assigns it to a group.We have added a button to the Flexi Task to allow us to assign the task (not an outcome of the flexi task) to an individual, which works, it sets the Assigned To column and automatically changes the status to In Progress. 1st thing I would like to do is change that status to “Assigned” instead of “In Progress”. Can that be done?2nd thing we'd like to do is, add another button to our Flexi Task, which is not an Outcome, labeled “In Progress”. When this is clicked, I would like to update the Status column on the Task AND update a TaskStatus column the Request with a status of “In Progress”. We haven’t been able to update a column on the original List, any suggestions on how to do that?
Hi All,I need to grab stats on some workflows I have.Problem is, when I click on workflow statistics, it seems like it only shows stats for the current version of the workflow. So, in my case, if i made a minor update to a workflow, it seems to reset the stats, making the data useless. How can the complete data for a workflow, version 1.0 forward?thanks
I received an email that there was an update published for the Nintex Workflow system for June 2017 however when I look at the portal the latest available is May 2017. how can I get access to the June update package for SharePoint 2013
We are using a repeating section to capture action items. Using the instructions from https://community.nintex.com/community/build-your-own/blog/2016/06/06/queries-and-collections-and-loops-oh-my, I've create a workflow that extracts the data from the repeating section and creates an item in a separate task list. However, I'm not able to create new action items after it has been submitted. For example, I enter the following information into a repeating section in a form. Action itemAssigned toStatusTask 1 - take out the trashBill S PrestonAssignedTask 2 - take guitar lessonsTed Theodore LoganNot StartedI'm the workflow is able to create Task 1 & Task 2. However, if I add Task 3 to the repeating section. How do I configure the workflow to only create Task 3? In addition, is there a way to update an existing item when information in the repeating section has changed? Using the example above, if Task 1 changed from take out the trash to take guitar lessons in the repeating sect
Hi,We have one list with 6 content types, Each content type have its own Nintex Form.Before we had one workflow for all content types and then basicly we had a switch in the beginning of the workflow that made sure that right branch was executed. This workflow exceed its limit and started to throw error regarding to big size(To much CSOM).So we decided to seperate the workflow and instead have 6 workflows. My question is how can we make sure that a specific workflow is executed depending on content type or a specific metadata that comes from the Nintex form?Is the only solution to have a main workflow with a switch and then in each branch we have "Start workflow"?We dont want that all the workflows to be executed same time beacuse of performance.Anyone have any other solutions or is this the only option?Also "Start workflow" action required username/password whats up with that? do we need to create a service account?!
I have installed Nintex Workflow, and when I go to activate it, I get the message that "Sorry, Something went wrong" withfollowing it. This is a first time installation, not an upgrade. I am running Nintex 2013 as well. Is this an issue with the installation of Workflow? I was able to successfully activate Forms so I thought it might be the installation. Has anyone else seen this issue?
My client has a SP 2013 farm with 4 Web Front Ends, several of which frequently hit >95% CPU for extended periods of time. They believe that this is caused by the numerous Nintex Worfkflows the users have created. When this occurs, how can determine which workflows are currently running?
Hello,It's just for information but, in nintex forms, do we have a nintex spinner when we want to submit a form ?Because I make a "complex" javascript to make my spinner but I assume that a native solution exist.Can you confirm that it can be done or not ?ThanksThéo
I know we discussed Euan Gamble but I thought I would add it here in case any of the other beta participants had any strong feelings on this. So at this point in time we do not let our business users use Nintex Forms as we think without training it can be quite dangerous and cause us a massive support workload (there are other non-Nintex tools that we lock down similarly). To that end we have a custom solution on our environments that hides the Nintex Forms button from anyone who is not in the Site Collection Administrators group for the site.When responsive forms drops I understand that we can choose between classic and responsive forms designer for list and task forms. I would like to be able to easily manage the governance on these (like we do for Nintex workflow).So in an ideal world what I would like is:Pixel Perfect – allowed forms designersResponsive – allowed forms designersIs that an option?As responsive forms is so much easier to use I would be happy to let our users have ac
I've been messing with this thing off and on for hours. I usually drop it, go finish another piece, come back only to be confused all over again.I've got a state machine that assigns tasks on each branch. On the first branch, I'm able to modify the Flexi task notification. I can make whatever changes I need. On any of the other task notifications, I make my notification message, click save on the task, close it, open the task back up and go to the notification tab and there's nothing in there. Everything I typed in is gone.I don't get any kind of errors or witness anything that would suggest the save didn't complete. I'm pretty confused here. Also, I'm POSITIVE I'm modifying the Task Notification and not the Task Description on the Action tab.

Hello To all.I am facing some issues with my workflow, I have a workflow with 4 differents approvers based on a category, if cataegory is A then go to approver 1, if category is B then go to approver 2, if category is C then go to approver 3, and so on... Now I have 1748 items in my Library and now eventually when I chose category A the this going to Approver 2 instead of going with approver 1, this is happening one in a while. If I upload 10 items probably one of them will be sent to the incorrect approver. Sounds familiar this issue? ThanksWalt
I'm trying to create a workflow to restore a previous document version to the latest version (ex. from 3.0 to 6.0). The web service action looks promising, but the documentation is a little lacking.Thank you.Ken Hawkins
I created a site workflow to remind users that they have pending tasks. I scheduled it to run once a week. It worked fine for a while. Then it started sending reminders to users that didn't have pending tasks. So I removed the schedule. It still sent out reminders. So I deleted the workflow, hoping this would stop it from sending reminders. It didn't. They still get reminders even if they don't have pending tasks. The is very aggravating to all of the users. How in the world do I stop a scheduled workflow that I removed from the schedule and deleted?
I have a workflow that runs on a document and at the end of the workflow the document is converted to pdf. I need to be able to export all the workflow history/logs/approvals page and attach it to the end of that pdf file. Is there a UDA that can do this and/or any ideas of an easy way to do it? We're using 2013 on-prem. Note: The pdf gets sent to external sources who don't have access to sharepoint and they only get a paper/soft copy.
how do you make a form panel only visible to a specific person(s)?
Is there a way to automatically enable the "Workflow change approval" setting in multiple sites?
