Hi ^.^ Can someone tell me why the Nintex Form calendar starts with Wednesday sometimes?   Is it possible to change the first day to Monday?

Hi there,   I have a problem with one of my Nintex forms. I have three categories, which depend on each other: Kategorie 1. Product category Kategorie 2. Product Kategorie 3. Product details   All of this information is written into one big table: So if you choose "Service" as a Kategorie 1 you can choose "Kommunikation" or "Umzug" as Kategorie 2. This is working:     Selecting "Kommunikation" leads to options "Benutzer" and "Postfach" for Kategorie 3. Everything fine up to now. This is also working for different Kategories.     BUT for Kategorie 1 "Vorhaben" this is not working, at least when it comes to Kategorie 3. So, first step selecting "Vorhaben" leads to correct selections within Kategorie 2:     There is only "Neue Software" to select for Kategorie 2 if you choose "Vorhaben" for Kategorie 1 (see table above). So far so good.   But the problem I have is with Kategorie 3 here. You should be able to select "Softwareentwicklung" and "Softwareauswahlverfahren" (also see table o

Hi Team, As part of the project we need to migrate a Nintex workflow and associated list forms from SharePoint 2013 environment to SharePoint 2019 environment. Can you please let us know whether we can achieve it using the import/export functionality associated with the workflow and forms.      If possible, is there any configuration that we need to keep in mind while performing this action? Any help is much appreciated.   Regards, Sooraj

I am using SharePoint 2013 On Prem. I am having errors in my workflow that seem to be caused by a list not having the item In it. I have a List "Project Request" which has an Auto Reference generated of "QIP-xx" which when added to the list creates an item in a "Project" List. of the same name "QIP-xx".   How can I configure a Workflow Action that pauses running until there is an item created in "Project" list that equals "QIP-xx".   The workflow does not always error as is, so am hoping to make it 100% working, by using a fix.   Please can anyone suggest an Action I can take (and how to configure it).   Thank you in advance.

I'm trying to display a simple 'time remaining' calculated value /text box in a responsive Nintex form:   TIME REMAINING: 1:42   (1hr and 42 mins left for example)   The calculation is: {Created} + 48hrs - CurrentDateTime   My problem is that using the Item Property {Created} in a Calculated Value shows as "Thu Jun 4 00:00:00:00 UTC +0100" - always with the 00:00:00 time instead of the actual time created.  So I can't use that field as the Start Date to calculate the +48 hours from, but there's no other Created timestamp to use is there?  Why is it showing me the correct date but no time?   I can see the full {Created} field in the list item and it has an accurate date and time stamp as shown at the bottom of the list item form, but I can't get access to the actual time created using the {Created} field in the form calculation.   Any ideas please?

Hello, When I'm in display mode, I want to trigger the "New mode" by clicking on a button. I searched and I didn't find any information. I would like to know if it is possible to trigger the "New mode" when I click on a button. In other words, I would like to know if it is possible to change the mode I'm currently in without closing my form. Thanks

 Issue You want to use AAD and AD for Runtime sites   Solution So we have a couple of options here, you can use AAD +/ AD to login to your Runtime sites OR, you can create a secondary site for AAD and have a primary site for AD   1. To manually configure AAD for K2, you can use the following site (which is what I did) https://help.k2.com/onlinehelp/k2five/ICG/current/default.htm#Configure/SF/MultiAuthAAD.htm 2. Alternatively, if you have integrated K2 with SharePoint using the K2 for SharePoint app, in particular with a SharePoint Online tenancy or one that uses Azure Active Directory, you DO NOT need to do the configuration described here as it is done automatically during app installation and registration. This topic is specifically for environments that do not need SharePoint integration but need to integrate with AAD.   Step One:   Copy the K2 Smartforms runtime folder and rename it to "AAD"  Step 2:   In your AAD Folder, go to the web.config file and edit it, look for the followin

 Symptoms When an end user opens a task that has been actioned the below error is seen. This is common with Task that get assigned to multiple destinations but only requires one or more to action the item to complete it. Developers might want to replace this OOTB message with something more user friendly.        Solution  Find the Form used for the task as well as the form state the task uses.   Edit the form > Ensure you select the STATE used by the Workflow Task Event and edit the “When the Form is Initializing rule”    When the form is Initializing there is a check if the current workflow activity is a specific activity this is where it will fail if a user opens a task that has been actioned. Directly underneath that rule add the following.   Condition > Error occurred   In the condition add an Action > show a message to the user   Below this add Acton > stop rule execution   With this configuration the OOTB Error message will not be shown and instead it will show the me

I have a field called "Status" that is a drop down with options "New", "Updated" and "Cleared". I also have a "Cleared By" Field. I want a workflow to set that "Cleared By" field to the Person who Modified the "Status" to "Updated" But I want it to run when the Approver changes the "Status" field to from "Updated" to "Cleared". The reason is we have an analyst who updates the item which we need to know who that is but only when the item is approved and cleared by the approver. I am new to workflows and am trying to figure out exactly what would be the best way to accomplish this?Thank You

Hi all,   At our client, we are building a solution with Nintex Workflow and Nintex Forms On-Premises (2013).I've adjusted the NewForm of a Document Set with Nintex Forms (using the Responsive Form), which works great! However, when I try to use the Nintex Form WebPart on a SharePoint Page, I receive an error while submitting the form.Sorry, something went wrongTo add an item to a document library, use SPFileCollection.Add()     The form is loaded correctly and works fine, except it isn't submitting. I've tried different Redirect URL's and-/or settings related to the List Form WebPart Confirmation Message, but no luck.   Am I missing something here?  

I have a workflow that currently allows me to save list item attachments as documents in a library for archive purposes.  Many of the documents saved are attachments from a single list item.  Is there a way to save these into document sets, instead of individually into the library? My attached image shows the Copy to SharePoint portion of the workflow that saves the attachments into the library.

My form has 4 panels that appear based on the selection of the user: Within each panel are choice controls for Manual and Model and they are named separately:   I need to set a validation rule for each Model and Manual control in all 4 panels to warn them they have not selected a Model/Manual. Currently, if I do that, the rule is covering all the panels and the user can select the missing choices, but it forces them to have to select also from the other 4 panels, even though the controls are named differently in each panel. Please kindly help me! @cassymfreeman

I have a list in the destination site collection. when I change am item, I have to copy a file from a different farm into a document library which is on the same site collection where the list is, so In my web service action, COPY.asmx is from the source site but workflow in running on the destination site collection.   I am getting <CopyResult ErrorCode="Unknown" ErrorMessage="Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

Hello, thanks for all of the great support. I have a form that captured three user inputs in the form of radio buttons. Opt1 (default Yes/No): Yes; text or No; text. The yes and no has the text in the field with it. Opt2 (default Yes/No): idem Opt3 (default Yes/No): idem Free text box   What I would like is that for any Opt if a user selects "No" then the free text box pops open AND requires that the text box not be blank. However, I'm having a difficult time implementing it. Part of the reason is that I have to use contains() because I have "Yes;text text text" and "No;text text text" for the Yes/No field. I have turned on the allow semi-colons flag.   Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone, I am trying to create a form variable and apply it to a value in my form that will ultimately display a PDF document that is specific to the current user viewing the form. The PDF files will be named the same as their log on or current user name. For example, firstname.lastname. And theyre all in the same location. Can someone help me out with the right formula for this variable? I have pulled information from lists before, using list lookup, but i am unsure of how to pull information from a list based on the name of the item. Thanks in advance!

Hi!The Common: NewLine "Operator" is completely ignored.I tried Build String: Reject {Common:NewLine} {WorkflowVariable:Comment}Or I tried:Create new variable: Multiple Lines of text: {Common:NewLine}fberifbNothing works! Am I doint something wrong?Thanks!

I have been trying to update a field value which pulls in from another list.   I have been using JS but don't seem to be getting anywhere :   I have been using :   NWF.FormFiller.Events.RegisterAfterReady(function () { NWF$('#'+vartest1).change(function(){if (NWF$('#'+vartest1 + ' input:checked').val() == 'Not Available'){NWF$('#'+vartest2).val('Please Ignore');}})})   So l have 2 columns that have information pulled in from another lists. But now l want to update field 2 automatically just for 1 option in first field. The rest can continue as normal so user selects option in Column 1 and then in Column 2. So when user selects "Not Available" in first field that should automatically update 2nd field with "Please ignore" but as the options are drop down and pulled in from different lists l think that is causing issues.
