I have a JavaScript function that enters a value into a lookup control in a repeating section.  The function works fine when using the edit mode of the form, but the value entered cannot be found in the item's field after it is saved.  Then, when I go to the view mode of the form, the controls are empty.   How do I save the values entered into my lookup controls?

Hi All,   I need some help with re-directing to a newly created item in a different list and open it. Scenario:  List 1  has a workflow which creates an item on List 2 and updates a few field values.  I am trying to open the List 2 item for user to work with. I have  'Save and Submit' button which starts the workflow and saves the List 1 item and creates the List 2 item - fields are pre-filled in  -  but it won't open the List 2 item.  I have a field with the url in it with the appended new ID number.    Workflow only runs when a List 1 item is created. In List 1 the link is displayed in a column with the List2 url and the correct ID # (correlates with the List 2 item created from the workflow).  I click on the link and it takes to the corresponded item in List 2..   I am trying not to do this with JS or a small JS piece of code.     any ideas out there?! Regards, Pam L

Hello, I'm looking for a solution to create a new item from an already existing one (used as template) in the same list copying some of the values. This workflow should be triggered from the item nintex form with a button and once the new item is created it should automatically open in edit mode .   I suppose the way to go is to use the create item action for the workflow but I'm not sure of feasibility to call a workflow from a button in the form and if the workflow would be able to open a new browser window/tab with the url of the newly created item.   I found this post https://community.nintex.com/t5/Nintex-for-SharePoint/End-workflow-by-opening-an-item-in-Edit-form/m-p/64380 which suggests it's not possible but that was without nintex forms   Sending the link in email to the newly created item is not going to do the job.   Any suggestion would be much appreciated. Thank you Sylvain

Hi   I am trying to initiate a notification when a date in a list field is within 7 days.  When I do so, the field date is appearing as 1/01/0001 and is including the time even though I have exluded the time. The workflow is as in the attached document.  I was unable to paste any screenshots.          

Hello all, I have a Library with Infopath forms. In this form there is a Repeating Table that contains a Question, a person the question is assigned to and a column for the Statement of the person. The way my workflow works is it gets all of the questions and people, saves them to another list (one row for each question-person combination) and in this second list, another workflow starts, that sends out Flexi Tasks and updates the Statement field with the Approver Comments using the "Update XML" action once the Task is completed. The "Update XML" action always throws the error "There are multiple root elements. Line 14, position 2.", no matter if I'm using variables or a static text. I am pretty certain that I configured the action correctly as it worked when I tried to do it in the Library that stores the Infopath XML files. Has anyone experienced this error before? Thanks in advance!

Hi All,   i want to clear the selection of Radio button control, drop-down change in Nintex responsive form. How we can do? When we select "Please select a value" from dropdown , radio button selection should be clear.   Thanks  

Hi I have been reading all the posts and I still have not worked this out.  I have a block.  I need to send a notification in a site workflow that will send out a reminder a week before an expiry date is due. I have tried all options and feel that the Calculate Date would provide me with two dates.  However, I can't configure the calculate date action to provide a date for the field CCR Expiry Date -7.  All the examples given are from the current date minus or plus days but this is for an existing date - 7 days in a list on the site.  I may be getting my logic wrong but seem to be going round in circles.  I am hoping that when I get this right I will be able to get the for each action right which seems to be picking up the first item in a collection only.   Thanks Renee

I’ve saved a task list for standard onboarding tasks. When the manager adds a new person to our staff list, I have a workflow that creates a new onboarding task list from the template for that employee. I would like to then have a step in the workflow that populates the new list with the new employee listed as the trainee and with the person the manager selects as a trainer listed as the trainer (both are fields in the template list). However, the task list doesn’t exist yet. Is there a way to do this? 

 I created a form with a repeating section. The repeating section has an attachment field. In the workflow, I extract the attachmrnt using query list and then build string for attachment link. (As CDATA) The link that I built will be displayed in the flexi task. I have issue when the file name is like: abc .jpg (there is a space before the extension) In this case, when the user clicks on the attachment link, he will reciece page not found    kindly advise on a solution which takes all of the repeating section information and parses it out in a new list.   

Using Nintex Forms 2016. My dev and prod environments have same Nintex Forms 2016 version 4.5.2.0.   Exported the Nintex Form from the SharePoint list in DEV and imported the Form.xml into the list in PROD. Published the form in the PROD. When I click on New Item, I am getting an error "Sorry, something went wrong."   I do not have access to PROD server to check ULS logs.    SharePoint lists in both DEV and PROD are created based on a content type. They have exact fields including internal and display name of the fields.   There are 4 Person or Group fields. All of them are using All Users.    The form load has custom JavaScript. I removed complete JavaScript and published the form. Same error.    List and Field GUIDs will be different as I created the list and content type fields manually. I checked every control on the form and connected field. They are all associated properly.   Any thoughts or recommendations to resolve the issue?    

I have a repeating section in my form and a few JavaScript commands that occur base on whether the value in the checkbox is true or not.  However, the value always comes back "true".  Here is the script I am using: NWF$('.rsdata .nf-repeater-row:last').find('.rsBox input').is(':checked') (where "rsdata" is the CSS of the repeating section and "rsBox" is the CSS of the checkbox in the repeating section)   I'm sure I am missing something - such as using a different term instead of "input" or a different function instead of "is(':checked')" - but I cannot figure it out.  If anyone has the correct syntax for it, please let me know   Thank you, Owen

Hi All,    I am running a Query XML workflow to extract the XML from my repeating section. I have three variables set up for the three items in my repeating section (see screenshot). The three variables are set up as single lines of text.    Is there a way to map these variables to the original SharePoint list the form is based off of? The goal is to export the SharePoint list to Excel for pivoting and analysis.    I am new to Nintex workflows so any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. 

Im using Responsive form(on-premise sharepoint) and want to have a search functionality within the form.

I am developing a nintex form which has 3 radio buttons.If I click radio button 1,      Option 1(People Picker)Required      Option 2(People Picker)Required      Option 3(People Picker)RequiredIf I click radio button 2      Option 1(People Picker)Required      Option 3(People Picker)RequiredIf I click radio button 3,      all options become invisibleI added rules for making options visible and invisible. The part which I am struggling is the validation of people picker. I tried a validation rule which said IsNullorEmpty(Option 2)&&Radio Button 1=="ABC". It displayed a validation message when the people picker is empty when I try to submit but the problem is even after filling Option 2 the error still exist when I try to submit the form. Am I missing something here? For some reason the people picker is not identifying if it is not null. Are there other options?I already tried  . 

Hi EveryoneDoes Nintex have a solution for the following scenario?- You have a document workflow that goes to multiple sequential approvers.- On one of the Request Approval actions, the approver is now out of the office but perhaps was not when the workflow started.- At this point he/she cannot delegate the task because they are out of the office.- The workflow is "stuck" with that approver until they get back in the office.From an admin standpoint is there any way to delegate that Request Approval action to someone else?Best Regards,Andy

I’m trying to create a custom button in SPD  to start a Nintex workflow on selected items without any luck, wondering if anyone has been able to implement the same.

I have a Nintex Form that users fill in with a client email address field and check boxes from a list of 20 items.  The items are links to documents located on our website.   The users want to be able to check off only certain items and have a workflow that sends the client an email with only the links they selected.   The form looks something like this:   Client Email: Document #1: http://ourwebsite/document1.pdf Document #2: http://ourwebsite/document2.pdf Document #3: http://ourwebsite/document3.pdf Document #4: http://ourwebsite/document4.pdf Document #5: http://ourwebsite/document5.pdf etc.   I tried using a "Send Notfication" action in the workflow and it works, however, if Document 1 is selected and Document 5 is selected, there is a space in the email where items 2, 3 and 4 would be.  This become a problem when the list is 20 items and there are a bunch of spaces in the email.   Is there any way to only have the items selected show up in the email?  Or maybe there is a complete

Hi all   2 Questions please. I have a workflow set up and scheduled to run @ 6am each day. It looks at another list within the site and pulls information items created within the last 24 hours. Ideally, I would like it to pick up any item that was created in the 24 hours from 6am the prior day to 6am today. I am not able to get this to work as the workflow always only picks up the prior days items no matter what I do with the Calculated Date action. Within the other list there are 2 Multiple lines of text fields which I am pulling information from via a variable and then inserted into an email summary. For some reason this data is being capped at 50 characters and I again can't figure out why that is.

Hello,   I'm having trouble with a Nintex Workflow and the Run If Action. I have two workflows on a list. Workflow A is a Contract Approval workflow that runs when a user submits a new contract. If Workflow A is canceled i want to add some comments into the list item with a Workflow B. Problem is when Workflow B is running it keeps skipping the run if condition.  I'm simply comparing the string value of Workflow A's status column. Is there some kind of trick needed to get this to work?
