The OOB SharePoint Enterprise only allows a summary email notification to be set-up for me on a Blog subsite.  If I wanted other users to get summary notifications I would have to force them to click on "Alerts".  Thus, I want to send out a summary email using Nintex.  I am familiar with Nintex Looping on a list and all that good stuff, but I was hoping to recreate the email noticiation as close as I could to the oob alert notification.I was hoping someone could send me to a link where this approach has laready been done and I can review the methodology.

Hello fellow BRGers.I'm wondering how you feel about bugs. More specifically, how bugs should be treated in the community. For example, if I have a bug and send it to support, I don't really know what's going on - I don't know who else (if anyone) has submitted it - I don't know if they're laughing at me because I've done something incorrectly and it's not really a bug at all.If I post something in the community, I feel like it looks like I'm like, "LOOK WHAT I'VE FOUND, EVERYONE!" where in actuality I just want to know if others are experiencing the same, and/or if they have a workaround and/or fix for it.It makes me wonder if we need some kind of specific treatment of bugs. I'm unsure.Here's an example: I have a Person field where I can add multiple people. Fine. Then I set it into a variable, and I use the variable formatting to set it to be semi-colon delimited. Fine.However, if there is no data for that field, the workflow chokes and dies. To me, this is a bug; I've worked around

Hello all,I am trying to open a Nintex form in a dialog box (by going into list settings --> advance settings --> select open form in dialog box) when user clicks on edit button. I have a repeater section on my form and for its validation i am using a custom javascript button for validation using javascript and then if the repeater section's validation is passed, (upon js function returns true) I then call .click() event of OOTB save button using its class (e.g. NWF$('.saveBtnClass').click();). if i don't opt to open the form in dialog box (i.e. default setting), all goes well.But, if i try to open it in dialog box, validations are passed as expected, but upon calling .click() event of save button, form just vanishes immediately and no value is updated in list item.Here are my custom javascript button settings on nintex form:Please guide what am i missing.Thanks,

Hallo! I need to use "Update Element" in Nintex Workflow. A friend of mine told me to use "Group of action" in case the logged user does not have admin rights because this function let me to execute a single action as if I am - as admin - execute this action. But how/where do I enter my user or work with this function?Thanks!!!Jakob

I have fields that should be enabled only when add new Item.For this I used expression "Is New Mode" on Appearance option Enable.It's worked correctly while we didn't receive updates to version of Nintex forms 1.2.3.0After that any rules can't block Multi Line Textbox.Someone know solution?

Hi everybody,I would like to do pretty much the direct opposite to the not() function.I want to disable a checkbox if another checkbox is checked. The other way round (ACTIVATING when checked) is easy and you find a lot of tutorials telling you how to use the not() function for that.I have the following situation:There are two checkboxes. As soon as one get checked, the other should be disabled (and the other way round).How can I achive this? This should be possible with a simple rule, shouldn't it?Thanks in advance,mai-kel

Hi, I'd like to use a Nintex Form on a custom list in which one of its fields will be used to create a Document Set via Workflow.To avoid illegal characters, I wanna set a regular expression validation on my field with this RegEx : ^[^~"#%:<>?/{|}. ]{1}[^~"#%:<>?/{|}]{0,121}[^~"#%*:<>?/{|}. ]{1}$ I tested it with couple of online services and it seems to be OK. But in my form, I've got strange behaviours... Some lowercases are invalid (example : "To try" is invalid while "TO TRY" is OK...). Am I wrong on something?Is there another way to avoid those characters : ~ " # % & CONT_IDS_CLEAN CORRECT_ANSWERS DISC_IDS_CLEAN content_ids curl_test.sh disc_ids_qready discussions queries questions_set.log test test_CID test_body : < > ? / { | } Thanks.Regards,

#validation #nintext form #attachment #visibilityI would like to add a validation to the attachment field but only if this field is visible. The field is only visible if a choice field is set for a selection field.The attachment field is only visible if a choice field is set to a certain value (Created a rule for this):I've also added a validation to this field that validates the number on at least one element:1. Validation for Minimum attachments without expression:In this case the problem is that even if the field is invisible the validation still works.2. Validation with expression:fn-If(fn-Equals(ShowAttachmentField,'Show'),1,0)In this case, the validation does not work :-(Someone has a suggestion or example how I can solve this problem?Thank you for the help.

We are using the Newsfeed posts as a notification area within SharePoint. We have some business units that have recurring posts that need to happen on regular intervals. Is there a way of doing this with a Nintex Workflow?

Hi! I need some help with my hiding/formatting formulas in Nintex Forms. I can do simple ones but as soon as I have multiple options I can't seem to make it work. This formula successfully works - ProjectJobType!=" Automated Outreach - Outgoing Call Script*" but as soon as I try to hide the question based on 2 possible answers to a previous question either it doesn’t work at all or it hides the entire form. In this case it doesn’t work at all. Can you tell me what’s wrong with my formula. It’s not he answers to the questions. I’ve checked that. or(ProjectJobType!="Automated Outreach - Outgoing Call Script*", ProjectJobType!="Automated Outreach - Text")P.S. I don't know which location I should have chosen.

I have created a few site workflows that have been schedule to run at various times throughout the day.  I've recently noticed that when the job runs and updates the fields in a list, it updates it so that the "modified by" is under my name.   Normally this isn't a problem, but as I'm leaving this specific company soon, I'm thinking this will become an issue when they disable my Active Directory account.  I've read some postings around how to run the job under the workflow owner, but I want the reverse.  How do I set the site workflows so that it will run under a system user?Thanks everyone for your help so far.

Hi all,Once you implement custom workflow status, it seems like it loses the ability to change the status to Error when an error occurs. How can I re-implement this ?thanks

I added a new sharepoint choice field to my list.   I already had an existing nintex form for that list.   I added an new choice field to the Nintex form.   When I try to connect it to the sharepoint form, I get an error "The server encountered an error processing the request.  The message is 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object'".  I might add a horribly formatted error message with a bunch of embedded HTML.Any idea what causes this??

Bonjour,Comment puis-je tester la valeur d'une case à cocher dans les règles de validation ?J'ai une case à cocher nommée <EauIndustrielle>, j'essaie avec equal(Self,"Yes") ou equal(Self,"Oui") ou equal(Self,1), on dirait que cela ne fonctionne pas.Est-ce la bonne fonction ?

Hello I have several hidden panels in Nintex Forms that only show up based on the answer to the initial question (what type of job is being submitted). When hidden panels aren't the 1st panel they hide successfully without a large blank space where they would be. However, my 1st panel (which needs to be first for when it is valid to show it) leaves a huge blank space when it is not valid based on the answer to the question. For example, when some choose health promotion job request the panel is supposed to show but if someone choose member request the panel is supposed to be hidden and collapsed. I asked this question at a workshop and was told it was supposed to collapse. we confirmed the rule was on the panel and not the control. Please let me know if you need any additional information to help me with my question.I don't know which user group I am supposed to choose for location.

Hello,I'm having an issue with my Nintex form. I am having an issue with a validation rule that goes against a field that I change with custom javascript. Basically I have a lookup field where they choose an "Organization" and that field cascades a List Lookup field in a repeated section called Facility Name which is loaded via a rest call using custom JavaScript. Select an Organization - List Lookup FieldRepeated SectionFacilityLookup - List Lookup Field (Filtered by custom JavaScript)End Repeated SectionI have a simple validation rule:isNullOrEmpty(FacilityLookup)The issue is when I pick an Organization and then a FacilityLookup (filtered by custom JS) the validation rule will not turn off, however, if I don't pick an organization and just change the FacilityLookup field the validator will not turn off. Is there an issue with using the OOB validators and custom JavaScript on the same control?I tried using a JavaScript validation on that control but then I lost all my other validators

the roles in form doesn't work, exampleI tried put total==0 but don't works tooI tried putting other functions in other text fields but it did not work too, example isNullOrEmpty({Self})

Hello All,Have been using Nintex for quite some time and have been wondering if Nintex forms can only be used to customise Nintex lists or is there any other uses as well? If I have to create a custom page which can access few lists (or a landing page) is there a way through Nintex or should I only resort to SharePoint Pages development?Regards,Shrini
