I have two questions in this subject.I have an basic workflow in a form library with InfoPath form that notifies user a form file uploaded in there.In the workflow, there are multiple email notification using the column of form library (reference) colored by red in "attachment 1" below. e.g. StartDate, EndDate ...But sometimes the email received by user is blank and the references is disappeared .Question 1 : How do I investigate this problem ?As mentioned above, we use InfoPath form. User who wants to apply the form clicks "Submit" button in the form and then the form is uploaded in the form library automatically. So I guessed this is timing issue that sending email before inputting the data into the column in the form library. I mean sending email action is kicked earlier than inputting the data into the column of the library.If my guessing is true, I think the timing which the column is inputted in the form library should be delayed a little bit before the action of send notificatio

Hi,Upfront apologies from this newbie if this question has been raised / answered - I did try searching a number of sites before posting.I get intermittent errors on a workflow that I've created and I cannot find what is the cause. I initially thought it was time based (and changed every setting I could find to allow for maximum duration), but no longer think so. This is the error I get:"Error retrieving context data. Cannot find item with id xx in list 'AIR Register'. Check the user has at least read permissions. Current user xxx"The user created the item that kicked off the workflow, so I know he/she has the correct permission level in the "AIR Register" list. If I terminate the [now errored] workflow and re-start, and approve, it works fine through to completion.This error does not happen in every instance... I'd say it only happens ~10% of the time and I've yet to find the common denominator / cause, except this - a workflow has NEVER failed/errored that I've approved/responded to

Hi, Is there a way to automate the export of forms for NintexForms2013?

Hi,I'm trying to you UserProfileLookup function in a Nintex mobile forms and it always showing ERROR in teh form. I have verified the ULS logs and no entry on that. Is this function supported in Nintex Mobile?

I have a SharePoint 2013 and Nintex Enterprise Forms 2013 and Nintex Enterprise Workflows 2013 licensed farm.I have 2 Lists List1 and List2. List1 has a hyperlink column that may have an entry that points to an item in List2.What I'm being asked to do is provide one pdf file via the 'Print to PDF' Nintex Form Feature or some other means to print an item in List1 and if it is associated via the Hyperlink column in list1 to a 2nd Item in List2 that it prints both items from the 2 lists into 1 PDF file.Does anyone have any comments/ideas on how this could be accomplished utilizing Nintex Forms/Workflows and/or OOB SharePoint, javascript etc??thanks!Frank

I created a list using a list template. I deleted the workflow associated with the list and created a new one, however the deleted workflow is still running!! Is anyone having an issue like this?? How do I fix it? I don't want to break what's working.

Hi,Can someone help me how i can fix this issue ?I am working with nintex 2010. Recently i got a requirements to update the nintex workflow to send a email notification when user adds new form in share point library. Actually email should be sent to the group of people where as from address in the email should show user who added the form inside the SharePoint library. I know how to configure the "Send Notification" but some weird thing i found with people picker (send notification) is for some people email address is set to  username@oldcompany.co.uk where as for few people email address set to username@newcompany.com, There is no consistency in email address even though all the employees are working for same company.Recently our company name is changed from "OldCompany" to "newComapny" and every employee is given with 2 email addresses (usrname@oldcompany.co.uk and username@newcompany.com). when workflow sends email for few employees it is picking  usrname@oldcompany.co.uk where as

Is there any way to include the default value in the workflow variable list.   I think this would be VERY useful. 

I'll try to be as detailed as I can to make this make sense...I have a form I'm creating with several panels that hide depending on rules I have created.In the panel in question, I have a choice control that allows for multiple selections. That control seems to be creating extra space above it and I don't know how to fix it.Here is what it looks like when I'm editing/creating the form:"Business Area" and "Select all..." are labels.The choice control below those labels is the control causing issues.  It looks perfectly aligned when editing, but when I go to preview, I get this large white space between the two top labels:^Consulting unchecked.^Consulting checked.I THEN attempted to move the 2 labels and the choice control into their own separate panel to group them together. That solved the white space between the two labels but now the white space is between the two panels. ^Consulting unchecked^Consulting checked.I've tried putting some space between the two panes. Didn't change anyth

Hi there,I need to add a confirmation alert as soon as the form is (sucessfully) submitted.The "Confirmation message" functionality does not help me, because the message will be promted prior to the buttons functionality being processed. Cheersmai-kel‌ ‌

I have a requirement where i need to create multiple forms.There are 2 sections which are common to all the forms.How can i design my nintex forms so that i can include these generic  sections in the forms and dont need to create them in every form.In these sections , we have input fields to get the person details for the user, so it is common to all the forms.

I would like to fire off a notification if ( and only if ) someone attaches a file to an existing item.  The item may already have attachments from creation, I just need to know if someone ADDS an attachment.I plan to couple this with Vadim's great tutorial on collecting attachment URLs using a UDA to pipe the actual attachment URLs into this notification....Not sure how to go about doing this.  Perhaps I could use Nintex forms somehow to pass a variable when a file is attached?

Hello Nintex Community,I'm new using Nintex for SharePoint and I'm getting some issues. I'd like some help on this to know the best way to do it.In my scheduled workflow I used to call more workflows one by one waiting until the last one was finished, but the quantity of these was increasing due to changes on the request of internall customers but when the workflows increased the issues began, at the end, usually the last two or three workflows didn't do anything and finalized as "complete" when they didn't do anything of what they should do.To fix this "issue" I thought to separate these workflows by sections and call them in different workflows, then I sectioned them into other workflows. Now, I have a scheduled workflow, into this I have a couple of workflows and into these two ones I run the other ones.Scheduled Workflow > Workflow 1 > Workflow 1.1 workflow 1.2 workflow 1.3                                   > Workflow 2 > Workflow 2.1 workflow 2.2 workflow 2.3But now I

Hi All,We are currently planning to migrate one of our site collection from SharePoint 2010 on premises to the already existing SharePoint 2013 on premises  by database attach and detach method. Following are my queriesI have read various posts regarding the migration to a new farm but in my case we are migrating the Nintex database  to the  farm with existing Nintex database .Is there any helpful post or the steps available so that the existing data on SharePoint 2013 farm wont get affected?Can we just migrate the Nintex content databases  or we will need configuration databases also? in this case can we split the configuration db?Vadim Tabakman‌'s reply to the post https://community.nintex.com/thread/2479 seems useful for my situation but I need some clear approach.Cassy Freeman‌ Eric Rhodes‌ Andrew Glasser‌  Vadim Tabakman please suggest

Hi all,Here is my very first question on Nintex community Does anyone success to manage UDA permissions using LDAP group, in the SharePoint 2013 admin console ?We currently see only AD groups or users, while we can access to LDAP users in other contexts (collsite admin manangement, webapp security policy....)Thanks for you helpAurélien

Hi,I just wanted to get some thoughts on a possible solution for our requirement.Client requires that I create a form that can be available on-the-go, of course I instantly think of Nintex Mobile (I also think of PowerApps though). The app is a CRM app where the user will be able to call up a customers info from our Data Warehouse and submit changes (client has a LOT of gaps in their CRM data).Ah! External data, as far as I can tell, this is more problematic! They also want users to be able to submit data offline (agriculture company with clients in far flung rural places with little or no connectivity).Option 1. We create a SharePoint on-prem solution using a layout for a mobile device, this allows us to use SQL Requests etc. The user has a mobile device with connectivity, we provision them with a VPN connection to our network and create a form layout for their mobile device through the browser. This solves our external data issue however, for the user, they would have to fire up the

I have almost the exact same issue as described here whereby a user receives an error when running a WF that Creates an Item in another Library.  The key distinction is my user has the correct permissions I think - He has Edit.  If I give him Full Control then he has no issue running the Workflow.  Why is this occurring ?  Any suggestions ?

HiDoes any one know how to stop Nintex workflow reminders for active workflows?

Other community members have asked questions similar to this, but I couldn't find an answer for my situation - so I'm sorry if this is somewhat redundant.For some background, I'm building a Nintex Workflow 2013 on a SharePoint 2013 site. I don't own Nintex for Office 365 or any developer software.My workflow uses a lot of user interaction-based actions, mostly to-do tasks and reviews. I need a way to calculate due dates based on business days for each task and review action. Each task and review action has a different due date (i.e. 2 business days for the 1st review, 5 business days for the 2nd task), which is where the difficulty lies.I've downloaded and tried to use the following user defined action (UDA) that was created for this problem: http://www.dox42.com/Modules/Workflow-Utils Unfortunately, the workflow runs through the action just fine, but when I look at my active tasks and reviews, the due date column is blank! Let me know if you've worked with this particular UDA before a

Hello everyone,I have one big problem, if I importing User Defined Acition I got modal dialog with information about this UDA (see screen no.1). If I open in next step this imported action her information are absolutelly empty (screen no. 2). Can you give me some reason what I'm doing wrong?

I have a form with one ID field and another one with the name of the person.When the user fill the ID, the nintex must automatically populate the name using a webservice.How can I do this?

All,Nintex form 2013.SharePoint 2013In 'live' environment, so can't upgrade to latest version of forms (yet).Used the following Cascading drop downs and Nintex Forms for SharePoint technique to attempt to cascade 2 dropdown lists.To the human eye all is correct. Yet when I add calculated value fields to my form, I see the 2 values don't actually match.If I add a form variable i.e. replace(MyFormAutotask,"[0-9]*;#","") I can remove the 15;# .What I can seem to figure out is how to get my ticket type drop down to reference the variable value, not the actually drop down value.I've tried various SP calculated column  formulas, they remove the visible value text, not the hidden 15;# i.e:Any ideas?ThanksAndrew

 One of the questions that has been posed recently was in regards to setting up AlwaysOn Failover for the K2 SQL Server. Documentation for this process is available here:   http://help.k2.com/kb001572   Part of the documentation warns that this should be set up prior to adding any databases to the server, as setting it up afterwards may lead to some data loss. The concern was what data might be loss. More information about the data loss can be found here:   https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/statements/restore-service-master-key-transact-sql   As an overview, part of setting up AlwaysOn Failover requires that you backup the Service Master Key for the SQL Server. If this server already contains databases, then you may have to use the FORCE option to proceed. The Service Master Key itself is the root of all other keys on the server and secures all the others directly or indirectly. If any of these dependent keys cannot be decrypted during the forced backup, any data that is secur
