I am looking for a rule similar to the one that I used on InfoPath forms. The rule would change the value of a dropdown list (Choice control) based on the value of the checkbox.In my case, I have a Nintex form with a dropdown list with different status for the form. The control is labeled Form Status. This is defaulted to "Form has been submitted".Once the form is submitted, a second person reviews to see if there are any changes / revisions that need to be made. They indicate this by checking a Yes/No control. If the box is checked (indicating that the form needs changes), then the dropdown selection should change to "Submission form needs revisions".I was able to do this in InfoPath with a formatting rule. However, I have not been able to find the right combination in Nintex to accomplish this.Thank you for your assistance.
I've a workflow which sets permission of the documents based on a choice column value. It works fine with document content type. But, for folder content type, the workflow sets permission only for the parent folder. Is there any way to update the permission of the contents of a folder?

Hello Ladies and Gentshow would I achieve the following: to validate a field with the data from a customList on SharePoint 2013??There is a field called CostCenter and but ideally, would love the form to show an error when a wrong NR is entered that is not present within the customList - this is some type of a validation before the workflow runs.Assuming all the data entered is correct - the WF generates a RefID and sends the ApprovalRequest to the Manager depending on the costerCenter number. Yes, there is a QueryList at the beginning of the WF that looksUp for the data.What if the Cost Centre is entered wrong?! Well, then the WF will check if the entered number is not found on the list - then it will reject the request. In this case, the user will have to make a new request!!To avoid this; I was wondering if there is a way of validating the C.C field before the WF runs ?!I am thinking of something like a vlookup but not really able to get it to work.lookup(List Title, Column to filte
we recently purchase an enterprise license for SharePoint 2013, and plan on testing the print to pdf functionality. looking at the available actions in Nintex Forms Designer, we are not seeing this as an option. All of the Nintex features have been activated on the Site and Site Collection level.These are the features that have been installed:
Is this possible or has someone figured out a workaround to get files or scanned documents into Nintex Mobile App as an attachment?
I have a form that uses a Report Type field to hide a part of the form based on the selection.ComplianceWalkthrough, Testing and AssessmentWalkthrough, Testing and Assessment with ComplianceTestingCompliance is the Default. The form should be hidden if either Walkthrough type is selected.I have gotten the formula to work with 1 selection, but not if either is selected. Report Type!='Walkthrough, Testing and Assessment'works as expected, but I have not been able to get the "or" formula to work. I tried: Report Type!='Walkthrough, Testing and Assessment'||Report Type!='Walkthrough, Testing and Assessment with Compliance'this doesn't work. I also tried:Report Type!='Walkthrough, Testing and Assessment'||'Walkthrough, Testing and Assessment with Compliance'I thought about using the Contains function, but I'm not sure how to create the formula.Any suggestions?ThanksCheri
Hello,I'm looking for a way to execute a jQuery command AFTER the Nintex Form validation completes correctly, but BEFORE the form is submitted. Does anyone know if this is this possible?I tried using HTML5's if (NWF$('#aspnetForm')[0].checkValidity()) function, but it seems unrelated to Nintex's custom validations...Thanks in advance!
Working in SharePoint 2013 and Nintex 2013.2 problems trying to solve - I had originally built this in WFs, but because I was attempting to update potentially 6 fields during an item modification, I was getting poor results due to the number of WFs firing. One of our SharePoint/Nintex solution architects suggested this could be better accomplished in the Form itself.Editing my requirements - just realized that if my target fields/columns/controls are single-line text, then I will not be able to show "people presence", or able to sort or do list lookups on the dates. Changing the field accordingly:1) In a Form attached to a Custom List, I'm looking to set a value in a People-Picker field (list column), after a Date is entered. The field I need to populate "By" is a People-Picker, and needs to be set to the "Current User" who entered/saved the Date field (list column).2) In the same Form, I need to set a Date/Time field with the "Current Date" in "MM/dd/yy hh:mm tt" format, based upon
I am having a form where if one of the control is empty then another control need to be set as current date as a validation I have used this using rule If(Aktuelles_Datum=='', Current Date, Current User (Display Name)) its not working for me
I am facing issue on binding or restricting people only field to AD group on Nintex form. User inserted in SharePoint group easily mapped to the field. When I add AD group in SharePoint group it did not show user Ad users while selecting user. By making field from people only field to people and group field, Ad group show on selection but it did not show user inside the AD group.We required users inside the group to map with field on nintex form.
Hi,I use a FlexiTask in an Approval Workflow. When the Approver approves the task I use a Build String Action ({Common:AllApproverComments} to store the comments in a Variable called storeComments.I then use a set Field Value to set the Comment field with the storeComments variable.I can see the Comment when I open the list item. However when I edit the item and save it the Comment field is empty.My Comment field is connected to a Multiline Text List Column.Any idea why this is happening?Many thanks

When building any workflow to pull data from an Excel Spread sheet in a document library in SP 2013 I get this error:"The execution returned an unexpected error.We don't know what happened, but something went wrong."I have the correct credentials in the Query Excel Services object and when I check connection in test it returns "Ok". This error occurs regardless of what spreadsheet I have attempted to read data from.Any Ideas on where I need to go next to correct this error?‌
When using the SQL Request Control, I am able to successfully connect to our database, and execute the query. When in preview mode, or after publishing the form, the control is failing to populate with any values.Any advice??
Hi,I have to move documents from one document library to another document library in another site collection using Nintex Site Workflow. Source library and destination library URLs are provided in workflow constants and we have use those URL to perform everything.How can I do it?
I have a column "C" which must be completed if column "A" and "B" both equal yes. I have put a validation on column "C"ColumnA!="To be confirmed"&&ColumnB!="To be confirmed"When I preview and try to save without filling in column "C" it prompts me to complete the column with a red box and message, the problem occurs when I type in column "C", it wont let me save the form, just keeps telling me column "C" needs to be completed??Choice options for column A and B are "To be confirmed" and "Yes"Column C is free text
Morning allI have a InfoPath form with Repeating Tables so that a user can request IT applications. So the user may request:1) Word2) Excel3) PowerpointI've set up a SharePoint list which the InfoPath form populates an 'Applications' column. I've created a Workflow in the list.I've set up a condition so that if it's Word it'll go to a Word approval task, if it's Excel then it goes to an Excel approval task. Each of the approval tasks go to a different Approver.I thought the approach I would take is to loop back around so that the Workflow would pick any additional requests. I'm fairly new to Nintex so I don't know if a) this is the right approach and b) how I would loop back to the start of the Workflow to get the additional requests. Any help gratefully received!
I did a pre lim search for this and couldn't find anything so I thought I'd post the question.I'm doing research on converting a legacy application into K2 SharePoint and need some advice on whether or not this is possible.Current Steps:Currently users use a handheld scanner with a barcode to populate an excel file capturing attendance records for multiple days of sessions. When the user scans the barcode the excel file populates first name / last name using a vlookup tied to the barcode #.Example:  Day 1 - Session ID 1    Employee - 1234 Day 2 - Session ID 2    Employee - 1234 After the session attendance is taken the Excel File is import into SQL where a view provides attendance records for the employee for all sessions they attended.Funcationality I'm looking to accomplish:Using multiple SP Lists with the Employee Information and Session Information to tie together when users use a scanner to populate a K2 Control for that Session Day.Biggest Question - is there a way to use a sc

We are trying out Nintex Workflows and Forms 2016. Previously we have been using InfoPath in our SharePoint 2016 environment. I have figured out how to make a Nintex form the default form template in a SharePoint List, but I can't seem to see how you will do the same in a SharePoint Library?
I want to set value of some SharePoint columns on form load but dont want to display the columns on the form.I want to use these columns in javascript function.I am not able to find an option to set column value without adding it to the form.
I need to create a quiz type form where each question has its own display and to go to the next question they need to press the next question button. Thanks in advance.
Hi. I am new to this site and fairly new to Nintex 2013 workflows. I have searched many places and have not found anything that will help me so I am hoping one of you Nintex experts will be able to help.Is there a way to send an email to an "external email" using a field or variable from a SharePoint list? We have users that can access/contribute our SharePoint sites BUT many of the users do not have a Work Email in our system. I am hoping that if we had a text field for the user to enter in his/her email address when creating a list item, that we could use that to send an email.
