Hello to all,   I am new user of Nintex, I need your help to modify the style of a simple CheckBox (Yes/No) to a toggle swith button.   Thanks,   Regards,   Vijay

Hello,   I created a form that has a choice field in it (check boxes multi-selection). The choices in this field are values from fields that were previously submitted in the top half of the form. I can get this to show up and work properly but I'm having issues linking the users selection back to a sharepoint list.   I've tried connecting the field to a single line textbox but that poses a problem because the values for the choices are longer than the 255 limit (especially if the user selects 2/3 of the choices). I don't see an option to connect the field to a multi-line textbox. Is there another way to get the data on what the user selected in this section and link it to a SharePoint field so I can have it in my list?   I hope that was clear. Thank you in advance!

Want to count number of checkboxes selected when there are multiple checkbox fields on the form. I have a function that will count ALL checkbox selections but don't see a way to limit this to one field.Tried adding Control css class and client ID js var name but these did not help. Using NintexForm ver 2.3.1.0 with SharePoint 2013 on prem.

I have a big workflow with 3 child workflows. The parent workflow kick start the child workflow. The workflows (parent and child) are failing randomly at different locations for different items. Failed to start one of the Child Workflow – Error Details- Failed to start workflow. Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation. Failed to update list item of ‘multiline text’ type – Error Details- The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information. Access Denied. One step before completion (on “Commit Pending Changes”) – Error Details -  An error has occurred in Jet-Onboarding. I have checked all the permissions and tried different approaches to overcome the errors. a. replacing "Set Field Value" with "Update item"  b. using "Commit Pending Changes" after every update c. using pause in Child workflow   Any suggestion would be greately appreciated.

No you will not be able to filter run if action based on a people picker field. Use condition action.

Hi there I just to know the DB secret of Flexi tasks / delegation behind the DB. I need to know if I Manually add new delegation to dbo.Delegation with params: [DelegationID],[Username],[StartDate],[EndDate],[SiteID],[WebID],[Delegate] Username and Delegate must be always with domain prefix? I mean this i:0#.w|DOMAINuser ?   What happend if I put there only DOMAINuser ?   And if I put new record like this with all other params so that's all. Or is there some another DB for adding another records. Because If I look to [dbo].[DelegationHistory] and [dbo].[HumanWorkflowApprovers]. and see more details especially in last db HWA is AllowDelegation param.   I need just explanation of all this process behind the DB.   Thanks for expert explain.

I'm creating an approval workflow where there is supposed to be a, "Not Applicable" radio button in addition to the Approved and Rejected choices. When I look in the Forms Designer for that Task Form, I see that the choice control for Status is connected to Decision field. How do I add a "Not Applicable" radio button to that choice?

I have a site workflow that is triggered by a list workflow in the same site (Start Workflow action), and a list workflow in a different site collection (web service call). The workflow runs to completion and does everything it's supposed to do when triggered from either source. When triggered by the Start Workflow action, everything is perfectly normal. When triggered by the web service call, the workflow throws an error, and all of my customer workflow logging notifcations are missing. When triggered with the Start Workflow action, normal logging messages appear: When triggered with the web service call, the workflow runs successfully to completion then fails with this output. None of my custom logging is present. The error log has a message that the workflow could not update the item; however, multiple items are updated and it updates everything it's supposed to.   Any ideas?  

We have a SharePoint Server 2019 on premises. We installed and configured Nintex for SharePoint and have applied the latest update putting us on Forms version 5.1.0.10 and Worflow version 5.1.0.0. Some lists, not all, throw an error when loading the Forms editor. All we can get from the popup is the top of the HTML including the <head>. Nothing useful other than the <title>Request Error</title>. The Form Controls and Ribon load, however, the Form never does. Some info about when this happens. When a list is created and the columns are changed. When a list is migrated using ShareGate w/Nintex plugins. I've included a screen capture. Thanks in advance,Bill

Ok I am trying to update a single line of text control when clicking on a button.  I've followed @harryr's post https://community.nintex.com/t5/Nintex-for-SharePoint/Print-a-JS-var-value-to-a-single-line-text-box-Nintex-Forms/td-p/16813 and was able to successfully populate the control when I use a static value.  Here is my current code: var formValue = NWF$('#' + AddressValue); function updateBox(){NWF$("#"+Address1).val(formValue);};   AddressValue is a JavaScript variable Name for a Calculated field formValue is a JavaScript variable Name for the Single Line of Text I would like to populate data into.   When I run it now, I see the following [object Object] in the control.  I'm guessing the problem is how I'm identifying the variable within the function.  Any assistance here would be greatly appreciated.  

I'm sure I'm doing something ridiculous here.  I am simply trying to format a date.  So for example, I use the following function to format the Created Date:fn-FormatDate({ItemProperty:Created},"yyyy")I'm figuring this should return:   2016What it is returning is:      fn-FormatDate({ItemProperty:Created},"yyyy")..the entire string of the function I've typed in.Am I using the correct format?  This is from a string builder. Thanks for any help!Cheers,Troy

I have a basic email workflow setup which triggers when my list Status field is marked as Complete.  The workflow settings are setup to run when an item is modified, but how can I stop this workflow from running again if a user makes a change to the item?  The initial email goes to the client and we don't want them to get another duplicative email as they only need one notification that it was completed.

Do we have the capability to validate multiple Attachment controls based on a checkbox Yes or No action?

I feel like I'm missing something simple... I'm trying to use Next and Previous javascript buttons on my form to switch between tabs (choice field rendered as button). However, on button click, my page looks like it reloads and does not actually execute the switch tab function. My javascript file is referenced via the Nintex form settings, but for the sake of ease, I will be pasting it directly into here. Any help would be much apprecaited. Thank you.     function PreviousTab() {var curTab = $("#" + TabSelection + " input:checked").attr("value");switch (curTab) {case "Tab1":$("#" + TabSelection + " input[value='Tab4']").click();break;case "Tab2":$("#" + TabSelection + " input[value='Tab1']").click();break;case "Tab3":$("#" + TabSelection + " input[value='Tab2']").click();break;case "Tab4":$("#" + TabSelection + " input[value='Tab3']").click();break;}} function NextTab() {var curTab = $("#" + TabSelection + " input:checked").attr("value");switch (curTab) {case "Tab1":$("#" + TabSelect

Hi, I have a list with metadata.  I created a workflow for a document library that has essentially the same metadata.  I'm using the Create Item action to set the variables from the list item and write them to the metadata in the document library for a specific document content type.  The workflow fails at the Create Item.  I've looked at other posts and haven't found an answer to this dilemma.  Is the Create Item only meant for list to list and not list to document library? Thanks!

Hey everyone   Long-time lurker (thank you for everyone on this community that has solved many mini-queries for me over the last year or so!).   I have a loan cashflow in a Sharepoint List (one column per payment) and am hoping to find a way to calculate the IRR. In Excel this is simply IRR(<range>,<accuracy>) but this isn't available in Sharepoint OOTB - i expect because it's not a simple calculation and the "range" isn't as defined in columns.   Is anyone aware of a way i can calculate this using Nintex?

I have a currency field.  If a user adds the "$" sign to the currency field along with the amount, the calculated field below does not calculate properly.  Is there a way to create a validation or some way, programmatically, to not accept the "$" sign?

Hi there, I have a problem with a flexi task and the reminder function. As descripted in the title,  the 2nd reminder mail is send, even the task is approved. Is this a bug or a feature?  

The edit view of the currency form has 3 digits past the decimal.  However, the "display" view of the form is rounding up and showing only 2 digits past the decimal.  I modified the SharePoint field to 3 digits past the decimal but the "display" view is still rendering only 2 digits past the decimal.   Does anyone have any solutions for this?

I have a Workflow in SharePoint 2013 that uses Request Review and Flexi Task to query groups for replies. My requirement is to capture the name of the user who replied, as well as their comment. In the Workflow History, I see entries like this, following each reply:   8/7/2019 7:59 AM | Task Completed | Douglas Christopher W |  (Douglas Christopher W) Here be comments. And dragons. | Approved   The All Approver Comments has additional info I don't need. How do I capture the information contained in the Task Completed line above, so I can save it to the list?

I made a list related to another list by forming a web part, but now I want to get rid of it. How?  

I have a list form with approvers named at the bottom, when the form is saved the 'request approval' workflow goes out and works perfectly.   However if the form is edited and an additional approver is added the request approval does not go to them.   If i edit the workflow settings to request approval when items are modified (the generic workflow settings) then it will request approval from everyone, which I dont want.   Can I have the request approval workflow only go to those additional people added that have not approved yet instead of everyone listed?   Thanks in advance!

Hello, I'm struggling with moving (drag'n'drop) panels in a big responsive form to another location in the form. With any other control type I'm able to move it as expected, but for panels i'm not successful. Recreation of those panels would cost much time for me.   Is this by design not possible to move panels in responsive forms or do I miss something?   I'm on latest version Nintex Forms 2013 v2.11.6.0 and tried with IE11, Chrome and Firefox browsers.
