 Symptoms I am experiencing a very weird issue whereby I have 2 workflows that are named exactly the same under 2 different headings that are doing 2 different things.I am deploying the workflow from K2 Designer but it is updating one and not the other, however, the one which the form is using is the other workflow!?!Therefore I can't make the changes I need to the workflow that is being run. Diagnoses The client has two workflows with the name on two different categories,however when they update for instance workflow 1, it updates workflow 2, instead of workflow 1.We also deleted the rules for the workflow the client no longer wants to use on Workspace , we removed all the process rights configured.On smartforms we are still getting the an error saying we dont have rights to start the workflow.As a workaround the client is considering creating a new workflow and re-configuring it to the form again. Resolution Unresponsive client  

 Symptoms The client could not be able to access their K2 artefacts from their sharepoint list through the K2 for sharepoint app.When the client clicks the K2 app on the list their requested to Create a new app or Deploy an app. Diagnoses The ticket was also linked to a new bug item (Bug: Appifying document libraries is not functional, , it shows the page to create new application or deploy a package.) For possible inclusion on a future release of K2I have managed to get around this issue and have recovered my application. Not sure if it helps for the future or was the right way to do it, but I created a new application on the same list and only recreated the SmartObjects. This recovered all of my forms and workflows as well and so I am able to carry on with what I am doing Resolution The client was able to resolve the issue by applying the below workaround:The client created new K2 artefacts and only recreated smartobjects. This recovered all of the clients forms and workflows as well

   I have to implement a multi step approval process that lets the initiator have the option of modifying the document only in the first step before a flexi task. Afterwards, he must not be able to modify anything at all. He should be reinstated with the edit right towards the last steps for he should be able to approve a flexi task.   How can I restrict his edit capabilities without crashing the workflow and without using a loop on a parallel branch for each step to check from 10 to 10 minutes if the document was modified by the initiator and go back to step 1? (this would be highly unsavory since the end product will be used to handle thousands of documents and all that looping will send the whole site to a crawl..)PS: I'm fairly new to SharePoint and Nintex, only started ~ 1 month ago.

 Symptoms Since 4.7 the copy/paste of an activity in the K2 studio keeps the same display name for the copied/pasted activities.Unfortunately, if two or more activities share the same display name, the access to the left pane (preceding rule, start rule, destination user...) of their configuration is locked - until the name is switch to a unique one. Diagnoses It's an issue linked to the fact that the copy past keep the same display name.The reproduction step are:Step 1 - Open K2 Studio 4.7Step 2 - Click on Any activityStep 3 - Type CTRL+C to copyStep 4 - Type CTRV+V to pastResult 1:The new activity have the same name of the previous oneExpected result 1:The new activity should have a different name of the previous oneStep 5 - Click on icon "Click to run the default wizard"Step 6 - Try to click on any icon in the right side (preceding rule, start rule, destination user...)Result 2:The click do no action Resolution Bug logged.Workaround: Rename the new created activity. 

HiIn my list is a number field formated as %. Request has been made to apply a background color to the form field if the value is above a certain %. Applying a formatting rule should do the trick. Condition: [field]>[number]. It does work for fields not formatted as percentage. But I can't get it to work for % fields. While in edit mode the value is apparently only recognized as number and the color displays. When saved and in view mode, the rule is not applying.Any suggestion to get around this?Thanks!

I want to be able to give the user on a task form the ability to select multiple names from a checkbox list. The list is a predefined usernames that can be selected on the current task and who will also be assigned the next task. I don't want to add a people field and have default values as this will allow the users to insert names outside of the predefined list - which is not allowed.I created a predefined choice field with names, then when I try to use those names in a next task to assign it to them, the workflow is unable to resolve the names and errors the workflow. I tried to create a people variable and insert user profiles based on account name, still doesn't resolve. I tried also to query user profiles based on the names, get the emails and save it in a collection variable then take that variable into the task, still didn't fix it.Can someone give a hint of what am I missing?I'm using SharePoint/Nintex 2010.

Is there a way that when the user is assigned a task to delegate the task to more than one person?I don't want to use the timed delegation option within the workflow or use the sharepoint groups.Here is the case:The user is a manager who has a team of 20 people, he wants the option that when a task is being assigned to him to delegate it to only 2-3 team members to work on this task, it could differ from one task to another. So it won't be practical to keep creating groups for each type of task. He also wants to be able to keep the task for himself and do it without having to delegate it.I thought at first of creating a "Request data" action, where the manager would be required to input the names of the users assigned the task, then create a flexi task with those names. But then if he'll do the task himself, he'll then has to pick his name and then another task is assigned to him to do the actual task... which is too much for what is needed.Currently the delegate link that shows on the

 Mike Talley 

I am using SharePoint 2013 and Nintex Workflows 2013. I have a workflow that runs that has quite a few emails in the 'To' of the 'Email Notification' action. Is there a limit to how many emails can be listed in the 'To' of that action? I have some email address listed and most of the people are getting their emails. I added mine to the end of the list and I didn't get an email.

 Symptoms SharePoint List K2 App integration error Diagnoses The issue here occurs when you generate a new application from a sharepoint list, creating smart objects and forms you then exit the application. If you then click on the K2 ribbon then you will see that all the applications created previously go missing from here. However if you check the K2 Designer you can see all of the created forms. Resolution This issue occurs due to the new Sharepoint styling. It will be best to revert back to classic mode to create the K2 applications and then after you can revert back to the new styling. If applications have already been created, revert back to the old styling and upon creating the new application choose to overwrite the existing smart objects to bring back the already generated artefacts here.This has been linked to an existing known issue and will be within future releases of K2.
