Hello all, We have custom list for which we have created nintex from. is there a way we can add multiple items in sharepoint list at once?   

WE have switched to Exhange Online and we need to figure out how to get it working with Nintex Workflow Lazy Approval.  Is there a solution to make it work with drop folders?

I have a Nintex form with lots of List lookup controls and people picker controls and when i hit "Print to PDF" all the list lookup control and people picker controls values are displayed along with the path which actually is making the PDF look quite cumbersome.I have grouped the controls on to the panel and have a rule against the panel as follows:The rule works fine and disables the panel controls in view and edit mode.I have a custom css on to the Panel and this works fine. .tester {color:blue;}To test whether the @media print is working on to my site or not i have added a css class under media print as .tester and added the css on to the label..tester {color;blue;}@media print {.tester { color:red;}}@media print does change the text to Red when selected "Print to PDF" in Preview mode, but doesn't work from list item mode.Print to PDF in Preview mode.When it hit "Print to PDF" i get the below (from list item mode), the labels also are not showing the included CSS. (font-color:red)I

Hello! I am learning Repeating Section, and I finally got to the point where my XML finally looks like: cat 0103/27/2020 00:00:00is gray;cat 0203/13/2020 00:00:00is white;; I would like it to look like: cat 01 03/27/2020 00:00:00 is gray; cat 02 03/13/2020 00:00:00 is white;; I am using Regular Expression but I can't figure out how to insert a break at the end of each Item. Thank you (very new to Nintex).  

Hi, I have 2 repeater in my nintex form. Repeater 1 data is captured in Repeter 2. In new mode Repeater 1 is filled, when user click on edit mode Repeater2 rows are updated using the workflow. My issue is when repeater 1 rows are added again in edit mode, repeater 2 rows are getting duplicate values. Example: At first Repeater 1 -> Row1    Repeater 2 -> Row1                        Row2                           Row2   After updating Repeater 1 with new rows(Row3) Repeater 1 -> Row1    Repeater 2 -> Row1                        Row2                           Row2                        Row3                          Row1                                                            Row2                                                            Row3 but i want to add only row3 to repeatrer2 since row1 and row2 already exists. How can i update repeater 2 with only last updated rows. I have attached my form and workflow for better understanding.    Regards, Hema  

 Symptoms One of the business requirement is to catch the client date time and timezone from smart form. and also create log with server's timezone. We design the database table using datetimeoffset data type. But it seems that K2 smartform and blackpearl do not support time zone concept in smartform and workflow. I can't retrieve the time zone info from client browser nor I can get the server's timezone in workflow. Diagnoses The 'datetimeoffset(7)' SQL datatype is not yet a supported datatype and as such there is not yet any Smartforms control or K2 datatype to support this SQL datatype within Smartforms/process. Resolution A product enhancement request was logged to implement in this datatype in a future release to support datetimeoffset(7).

Please find the error screenshot attached. Version Details below. Nintex Forms 2016 Version: 4.1.1.0 License type: Development   Thanks Hema

We have a SharePoint farm that is configure with minrole. After we have installed the nintexhawkeyeforsp2016.wsp, the instructions call for the following: "4.Under Application Management, click on Manage Services On Server. Find Nintex Hawkeye Service, and click Start." When we go to Application Management, "Manage Services on Server" is not found there. It is located in "System Settings"--> "Manage Services on Server". However, after clicking on it I see the "Nintex Hawkeye Service" but it is stopped. As this is a min-role server, we are not presented with an option in the Central Administration GUI to start the service. How do we proceed?

I've got a Nintex workflow which saves a document on the document library. It uses a Template URL (.docx). I had to change a column name on the list library. So I deleted the column and created a new one so it matched the internal column name. The workflow completes its steps but during document creation (I think), there is a hiccup. Error message say "Filter rule error, column '120' does not exist. It may have been deleted by another user." The document generated in the document library shows unfilled columns in word. Internal status of the workflow becomes "Suspended". I've not been able to debug this. If anyone has come across this issue on SharePoint online, please help me out.   PS. I checked the permissions per link below and made sure all permissions are there. https://community.nintex.com/t5/Nintex-for-Office-365/Update-item-permissions-on-a-new-document/td-p/69953

Hi, I have a form where we have a list lookup and the value of the selected item is used in the formula of a calculated field to retrieve a value from another list.  I want to use the result of the calculated list in the filter of a second lookup list. The calculated field uses this as its formula this works OK  lookup("/sites/payment|Companies","Entity",""+parseLookup(CompanyName)+"","Easy Code") The filter for the second lookup is in the attached file. EasyCode is the name of the calculated field control. Any help would be appreciative   

Hi, I have a Sharepoint list that captures absence requests. Items are being synced from our absence request system using DataSync Studio. I'm using the Create Appointment Action to insert them into peoples calendars. However when there is a change to an event, IE it is cancelled or amended, I'd like the ability to amend or delete the item I created in Exchange. At the moment my work around is to simply remind the user to update the calendar item in outlook. Any suggestions? I do see I can connect to exchange services and there is an option to delete an item, but I have no idea how to configure the SOAP code. Regards Tony.

Hello! In my organization, we're planning a project for complex upgrade of current Legacy environments running both Nintex 2013 and SP2013 On Premise farms. One of potential strategies has an idea to first upgrade the Nintex 2013 running on Web Front-end server of SP2013 farm, up to Nintex 2016 version while keeping the SP2013. Is it a viable architecture? Are there any compatibility issues known so far? Looking through the previous postings I've noticed there're some installations like that but without any experience shared. Would someone share his? Thanks in advace!

Greetings, I am trying to convert text to a number using the Convert Value function. The text looks like this 20800. The text (number) is a form number and I'm trying to automate the assigning of the next number when a new form is created. So the next new form would have a number of 20801. I keep getting the error message Error parsing value. Value '' is not compatible with the selected output variable type Number (double). Any suggestions? The second convert value changes the number back to text so that I won't end up with commas in the form.   Thanks

Hello,   In my form, I added custom labels. These should be displayed when a field is empty. However, they are already displayed when the user creates a new form. How can I prevent these labels from being displayed when the user creates a new form? What I've tried: I've created rules that hides the error message, except that it doesn't display if the field is filled in.   Thanks

Hi everyone,   Tried searching around the forum, but can't find any solutions to my problem. Really appreciate all the help I can get.   As the topic is saying I want to create some tables in the Nintex form with some easy caluclations, but can't find any way to do this.

I have a "My Workflow Tasks" webpart that displays workflow tasks assigned to the current user from all site collections across the farm. There are some entries that are blank except for the Workflow Name. There is no link or reference to any task list. I have searched through task lists and found no tasks missing information, so I have no way of finding the source of these entries. Any assistance greatly appreciated!

Hey there, I'm running in to an annoying issue. We have a SharePoint 2013 Farm with Nintex Workflow 2013 installed. We are running in to the issue listed here:  https://community.nintex.com/t5/Nintex-for-SharePoint/WorkflowDesigner-aspx-not-loading-correctly/td-p/35561.   I tried the proposed solution at the bottom or that post, but when I get to the point where I have to retract all the solutions, I am able to retrac the "nintexworkflow2013.wsp" and "nintexworkflow2013enterprisefeatures.wsp" from all web applications except from the central administration web application. It tesll me "Status = Retracting" but then it finishes and the status still reads "Deployed". Thus I cannot continue to remove the solutions so I can re-install. I have tried force removing the solutions without retracting using the following command: Uninstall-SPSolution -Identity mySolution.wsp -allwebapplications Remove-SPSolution -identity mySolution.wsp -force But the result is not good because when I try to re-

Hello, I am a Nintex Newbie.  I need to send an email notification for an award due date that is 30 days away.  I created a SharePoint list with 4 columns (including awardname, awardduedate, etc).  Below is the current workflow I have. The issue with this workflow is that the email notifications are being generated for all of the awards I have populated on the SharePoint list.    For example, I received an email notification correctly for an award with a due date 30 days away (i.e. today is 3/12, and the award is due 4/12).  Unfortunately, I also received an email notification erroneously for an award  with a due date that is more than 30 days away.  In addition, I also received an email notification erroneously for an award with a due date that is upcoming, but the 30 day mark has already passed (i.e. the 30 day mark was 2/20).  The main issue appears to be with the "Run if" - I have tried several variations (after searching forums/posts) and none have worked.  I tried using the "

I’m new to Nintex. Here is my problem. I’m running SP2016, Infopath 2013 I’m running a Nintex workflow to approve entries of InfoPath form in a list library/app, the link in the email points to the infopath form and on opening the form the WORKFLOW TASK Open this task... banner appears at the top of the form. The user completes part of the form and then responds to the Open this task... indicates their Approval and returns to the form to complete it. When I was using SharePoint OOB workflows the WORKFLOW TASK banner would disappear when returning to the InfoPath form after responding to the workflow, now it remains. How can I get the banner to disappear on returning to the form. Thanks

I am trying to have a to build a Request for Information form sitting outside of the sites (Project sites). The user should be able to start the form, and select which site they want to write to ("Which project are you part of?"). Ideally all sites will have a "RFI Register" list that this will write to.    I don't know where to start. Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

The folders in the manage workflow history list folders are filling up fast and causing performance issues. We are manually deleting the items which is very time-consuming. I have read about using the disabled option and set each folder to disabled. Somehow this option has been set back to enabled (I am not sure if this is a system thing).   We do not need the history so is there a way to stop these lists being created? How do you manage workflow history lists?   Thanks

Hi,   I am using New responsive forms and Workflow. I recently found out (2 cases) that when task is created is not approved/rejected, whatever changes I am making in the form or directly in the list are just saving and not triggering the workflow.   I deleted the tasks, and updated the form/list but the issue is still same.   Has anyone faced this kind of issue?    Kind regards, AK      

I have an on premises SharePoint 2013 farm. I setup a host named site collection for a user and made him a site collection administrator. He can see 'Workflow Settings' in the ribbon but its disabled. I then granted him Full Control on the site collection and he still can't see an enabled workflow settings.   We use a branded version of Nintex but from what I've read everything is enabled at the site collection and site level that needs to be for the workflows to be available. In fact, Myself (Site owner and Farm Admin) and the other workflow developers are able to see an enabled workflow settings. Is there a setting in Central Administration that I'm missing?

How do I create a Named Control?  I see that several of my list columns show up as named controls when creating rules.  I have since added a list column "VisitorType" and need to use it in rules to hide a "Submit" button.  When I try to create the rule, I see "VisitorType" in the "item properties" tab, but not "named controls" tab.  Thanks.
