Hello fellow Nintex Admins,i use a formating rule that only shows a region of the form if a checkbox is checked:This works just fine, if i click the checkbox in the user context.

So with the help of another forums member i added this code line to an existing function:and this works for the checkbox, but the rule doesn't fire to show the region.Any ideas?CheersDaniel

Hi all,I am looking (on the press of a button) in a Nintex form to set the value of a Task Status field based on the value/selection of a choice field control (set as Option buttons).Here is the set up.I have a choice control field (not connected to any SharePoint field) in my form.I have set display format to Option Buttons (only one should be selected)I have two choices, values:Start QueryEnd QueryRender as buttons = NoI have a variable in StoreClientID in JavaScript variable set to QueryOutcome.I have a SharePoint Column called Task Status.

However, it is only returning Stop Query Alert even when I select Start Query option on the form in the choice control. It appears the value of the choice control is not getting passed/retr

I have list that is being converted form InfoPath to Nintex Forms and a critical element is for the form to display on a "details" page. The page is fed by a query string in the URL and I'm using that query string to filter all the other data on the page. When I setup the List Form web part it is requiring a number for the Item ID. I cannot find a way for it to read from the query string or anything else on the page. HELP!

Hi EveryoneI'm creating a workflow for document approval.  One of the requirements is to have a certain type of document digitally signed.  Our current configuration is that we have the ability to digitally sign PDF's within the PDF editor itself.  So... the way I could do it would be to have the initiator start the workflow and for each approver they would have to check out, digitally approve, check in, and then approve the document to move it to the next approver. Is this the best way to manage digitally signed documents with Nintex workflow?  Your $0.02?Best Regards,Andy

HelloI am working on nintex form and I would like to reset some fields based on drop down value.when ever user changed the dropdown other fields will be reset.I used to do this in InfoPath using rules but I cant find the same function in nintex form. how to do it?

Not sure the best way to explain this,   Anyway I have a calculated value on a filed that does a lookup to another list to display a dynamic message.     I have fields below that message.Unless I   per-allocate sufficient space below the calculated value the fields below the calculated value will be over layed   by the dynamic text.  I know what is happening.   The text from the calculated value is being displayed after the form is rendered causing the over lay of the fields.Are there any tricks to cause the form to be rendered in such a way that this does not occur?

HiI want to use the following type multi select layout for a choice control if possible. I only seem to be able to use it in a lookup control. The Choice control only seems to allow check boxes. but what if I have 1000 checkboxes. doesn't really work.

On my workflow start form I need a rich text input field. I use this rich text as the body of an email later on in the workflow. I can only connect a Multi Line Textbox control to a variable which disables the option for Rich text. No option to connect to a list column since there are no columns available on a start form except for the title column. Seems strange that it is not available for use in a Start form. Any workaround available?When the Control is not connected the option for Rich text is available. But obviously no way of saving it, so it can't be used in the workflow.When I connect it to a Multiple lines of text variable the Rich text option disappears. 

I would like to do a save and redirect on 2 buttons on a form. Button 1 is the 'save' button, when a user clicks this it needs to save what the user has edited and then redirect them to another page. Button 2 is the 'save and submit' button, when a user clicks this it needs to save and submit the form and then redirect the user to another page (different redirect page from the save redirect page). I've tried using JavaScript but JavaScript doesn't save the changes it only redirects them. I've tried inserting the redirect urls on each button's client click but this also either redirects and doesn't save the changes or saves and doesn't redirect. I need the buttons to save and redirect.

We are looking to design a form/forms that have multiple people task throughout the form. First person fills out the second persons info and submits. Second person fills out the survey and submits. Rest urns to first person to complete. Not sure if this can be done in a single form with hidden fields, or have separate forms for each that initiate when each is completed. Can a season vet be able to help me with the best approach?

Hi,I'm having issues with Nintex Forms 2013. I have a repeated section that multiplies cost * quantity to a total cost for service field per row. I also have a total cost field outside the repeated section that sums the total cost for service in the repeated section using a Sum(TotalCostForService) formula. Both the total cost for service and total cost calculated fields are set to re-calculate on new/edit mode. The calculations are working perfectly in new mode and in view mode. The only issue I'm having is in edit mode, the total cost field outside the repeated section shows 0 on load and if I save it, that value gets saved to my list column. If I add or remove a row, the total cost on the bottom does re-calculate properly and gets saved properly.Picture below showing the total cost is not updating properly in edit mode:Picture below showing correctly in view mode: Any ideas?

I've passed off a bit of work to a subworkflow as to not convolute the viewflow that the users will care about too much. Unfortunately, when I call this subworkflow, it never completes, even after completing all of the steps successfully. For example, the screenshot below shows the subworkflow having completed the only task that is required of it, yet it very clearly shows to still be running. Because of this, the workflow that calls the subworkflow never passes beyond the task where it calls the subworkflow. If anyone could provide some guidance here or has had similar issues, a bit of instruction would be fantastic. Thanks! 

Good morning,I'm hoping someone can help me understand how to set up a query list and run if workflow. I've read similar posts but there not dumbed down enough for me to understand where mine keeps failing.I have a list on a site called Report Schedule List. The list has a Report Name, Due Date and Report Owner columns. I have set up a site workflow to run once a day forever. What I'm trying to get the work flow to do is each day query the list looking for any date that equals today (I've created variables for the report due date and report owner) and for each item that is due on the day the workflow is run send the report owner an task.I've created variables to capture the due date and report owner and collections for the same. I really have no idea what I'm doing.I've attached my workflow in hopes greater minds can help me out.ThanksAndrew

HiI have a Nintex 2013 workflow that creates a sub-site on a team-site and afterwards creates an item in a list in the new sub-site.This works perfectly in our pre-production environment, but in our production environment the flows creates the sub-site and then errors and claims that a workflow is running on the element (which there isn't). Then the workflow stops for a couple of minutes and then it continues and finishes without further errors!I have tried to put a pause action into the workflow after the create sub-site action - but it still errors.Any suggestions - I have never seen this behavior before!?Here is what the workflow looks like:

Hi,Below is a synopsis of my requirement. I have a Part Number drop List used in a form. I would like to have a manual override for entering a free text instead of the  Drop list in case a part is not available. This is because there are instances when a New part is created based on certain Selection Criteria, Like A Bill of Material. Is this Possible if so how. Thanks for the assistance.

Hello! I took an already created job request form from SharePoint and started modifying it in Nintex forms. Questions that were created before starting to work in Nintex Forms had lines between them. However, when I created new questions they don't have lines between them. I tried using format painter to copy the format from a field with the lines to a field without the lines but that didn't work.

We have a Nintex Form to allow user' to Request Digital Asset for media projects. The Requestor enters one or more URLs to image thumbnails (using a repeating section).  Once the form is submitted it triggers an Approval Workflow.  The approver has ask if we can have the image thumbnails appear in the Request Form so they can quickly determine if they want to approve or reject the request. 

Is there a way to add a default image or file as an attachment to a list item? I know i can do this with document sets and content types but this case is a simple list with custom fields. I need the user to be able to open that default attached image and make marks on it, save it then submit from mobile. And I want that image to be available on all list items. hint: it is an inspection form and the image is a drawn image of the asset that helps them better describe the location of the deficiency. They can still do that with taking photos and putting marks on it, but we still need that default image in there. Using Office 365.Any idea?

I'm not using Nintex Forms. I have a custom Content Type attached to a Request data action that has a  people picker control and it looks and functions differently than the OOTB 2013 client-side people picker control. How can I force the standard OOTB people picker control on workflow task forms?
