I have created a workflow that takes the dates from a form submission and creates a new calendar event for it. I have a question about the recurrence settings section. When i create an event through the standard calendar, i get recurrence options. I need to know how to replicate these options within the workflow so that new events are created with the same settings. Take a look at the screenshots and let me know if I can provide any more information.Each event that is added to the calendar should be a repeating event, daily, every weekday, with the end date equal to the End Time for the item. <-- calendar settings i want to replicate
Hello Everyone,  I have a form where the user may need to add additional lines. The desired function is similar to the repeating section control. However, I use multiple controls hidden within panels rather than one repeating section so that I can more easily access the list data. There are a number of controls contained within each panel, and some of these controls need to be disabled based on other values within the form. My formatting rules work correctly for the first line of controls (that one is not hidden), but the rules do not seem to trigger on any of the controls within the hidden panels. If I unhide the panel, I must then change the values in the associated controls twice in order to trigger my disable rules. For example, I have a hidden date control (Control A) that is unhidden based on a selection in the above row. This field should also be disabled if a specific choice control (Control B) equals "Reversal". This functions on my first row, but it does not work on Control
How do I send no longer needed notificaton if the approver responds with outcome prior to Reviewers?  I have a workflow that if "in review" status an assign fiexi task will go to 4 individuals. (In parallel) (1) Approver and (3) reviewers. Different SharePoint list fields will be updated based on their responses so 4 assign flexi tasks are created.  If ONLY one email was needed for all 4 that would be easier to do based on one assign flex task and the configuration of the behavior outcome within the Assign Flexi task. However since this is branched out to 4 individuals and 4 separate Assign Flexi tasks, I'm not sure how to do this within the workflow. You're suggestions and comments are greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help. Â
I am pulling a date field into a dropdown control on a WF start form. There are duplicate dates, but I wish to trim the list so there are no duplicates. I know that I could create a second list that looks to first, but I'd like to know if there is a way to do this otherwise and preferably without code. Seems that the distinct function for dropdowns should be OOTB.Here's a screenshot to visualize.
We have a number of SharePoint workflows enabled for LazyApproval, where users approve tasks by replying to the email notifications they receive. The problem is that this shows in the "All Approver Comments" log in the format (User Name) LazyApproval by user.name@domain.com Approved <remainder of email> and understandably many of them do not appreciate the implications of the phrase LazyApproval. Â Is there any way to change the title "LazyApproval" to something less pejorative, like "EmailApproval" or "RemoteApproval"? These workflows are frequently used at the GM and Exec level so the current situation is really not optimal.
Hi all, the webpart works fine and I get all of my workflow tasks across all the sites. But only my personal tasks. I need to see the Tasks i have because i'm part of a group too. For example: I am part of the AD-group "IT-Trainee". If a task is created for this group, it does not show in my nintex tasklist, but it shows in the sharepoint standard "my tasks" list. Â So i need a solution that combines both advantages: See my tasks over all websites and see my group tasks as well. Is there a way to manage this?
I have two drop-downs. One is locations from locations list. Second drop-down is for Names filtered from the selected location. The locations with no spaces work just fine and the names for that location are shown: examples: ALocation, BLocation. The locations that have spaces do not return any names; examples: A Location, B Location. Some locations have three or four spaces. Any ideas?

Hi,  I'm trying to create a workflow for approval of "Time off" requests. Actually it is already working. The Problem is, this is sensitive data wich nobody should be able to read. Except for the initiator of the request, his supervisor and accounting. So i tried the optin in the list properties and configured it in the way, that only the owner of an element can read it. But then the approval in the workflow does not work anymore, because the supervisor is not able to open the element anymore. Then i tried to use the workflowfunctions: 1. In the approval task itself i changed the user rights to full access for the supervisor 2. I used an extra "set element permission" and gave both persons full access to the element while i chose "delete all rights" before  Both options did not seem to have any influence.  Does anybody have an idea how i can manage to have a list in which only the initiator and a person (lookup from AD) can see an element of this list?
I have a JS in a calculated value that I would like to populate a date field.

Hello I have a Nintex Form that on loading populates a text field with a random GUID. To complete the form there is 1 mandatory dropdown. On submission of the form, I would like the user to be taken to: http://host/thankyou.aspx?guid=aaa-bbb-ccc&dropdown=12345 Â If I use a Javascript button, I can't see how the form is saved before going to the URL. If I use a Save button I don't know how to redirect to the preferred dynamic url. Â Is there a way to do either? Â thanks Matthew
Hi, I have a huge need to calculate the current date week number to be somehow displayed in Form when creating new item. The thing is that it have to be same as the Oultook Calendar default settings, so for example: Â 01.01.2016 was on Friday so it's still 53 week of 2015 as well as the Saturday and Sunday on 02.01.2016 and 03.01.2016. - But here I don't need to be switched to 53, it can just show me '0' so I'm sure that this date is still within previous year last week. Â In Outlook the 01.01.xxxx year start's as 1 week of the xxxx year only when it's Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. Â I've already created some varibles for this, and I'll follow with example for 02.12.2019: - Current Date: 02.12.2019 - Current Date in Year number: 336 - Current Date week number: 2 (Monday is 1st day of a week) - Current Year 1st day week number: 2 (Tuesday) Â So there is like whenever I'm trying to calculate this even in Excel depends on the year I'm in right week, or one week behind the Outloo
Hi Hope somebody can help. I have the problem, that the rule for hiding my panels for my tabs aren't working appropriate. The problem is, that the panels are hidden when the rule is true but it creates a space between the tab field and the panel. The space is always as big as the panles that are hiden above. I checked my rules, but there souldn't be a mistake in it. The problem is since the update was done on the version 4.5.1.20. Hope somebody has an idea how to fix it.

I have a sorted List (descending sort).  In this sorted list I want to find and get the first value using the runtime function Lookup.  Unfortunately  a) this runtime function lookup doesnt care about the sorting of the list b) and a view can't be used as list source in the runtime function lookup.  Can anybody help?   Â
We have built a workflow in Nintex Workflow Cloud that uses the Send An Email control. In the workflow we have variables (text) that get set with an email based on the different routes it takes. In the end of the workflow it sends the email to all these emails that have been collected in the multiple variables. If we put the variable in the TO line users receive those emails but if they are in the CC line they show show up on the CC line of the email but never recieve it. I've even hardcoded the email into the CC the user then will receive the email.
Two email template inline functions that allows you to configure an template external of K2 workflow. V3 - New feature Smart Buttons. Dynamically display client event actions The templates can reside within SharePoint so that maintenance is easy. The function works by replacing token within the email template. You can also call the smartobject load method to load data on demand For example : The token [ProcessInstance.Originator.DisplayName] within your template will be replaced with the display
I'm trying to assign a Flexi Task with additional data fields. To do so, I inherited a new content type from "multi outcome task with InfoPath" and added 2 Fields (for a sart). I can change the content Type in the config dialog of felxi task but I'm unable to save oder deploy the Workflow. It seems that the content type ist always reset to "multi outcome task with InfoPath". What ca I do, to get additional fields from my Infopath form to the Workflow? Â
Hello, Â I am trying to design a workflow that requests data in the form of a file attachment from a number of users, that then attaches these files to the corresponding list item. I have understood that the "Call Web Service" action would be ideal in this scenario, but unfortunately this action has been disabled with no exceptions by the organisation I work for... Â I have been trying to find a workaround but so far without any luck. Does anyone have any ideas that could help me achieve what I am trying to do, given the circumstances?
Really like the New Responsive designer look and feel. I use a list lookup field to get the values based on a value chosen by a user. The lookup works great, but I can't store the multiselect field value from the lookup to a multiselect choice field in my library. It would be great to get this fixed, we use a workflow to solve this problem at the moment.
Got to the bottom of this one with @EuanGamble so thought it worth sharing.  My form has a Date control to capture Date of Birth and I wanted to auto calculate the age rather than have the end user fill it in. How did we (and I say we, it was a team effort) do it: Start by creating a variable:Use the Function dateDiff then add the form control for Date of Birth followed by Context value Current Date. Variable looks like dateDiff("TotalYears",[Form].[DateofBirth],[Context].[Current date])  I then need to create a rule to ensure my Age control is populated when I input the DOB. If Date of Birth is filled, then Age value is <my variable>.  Finally, set my Age control to read only on the form...  And when I put my date of birth in it shows: Â
I have an email address stored in a SharePoint list Single line of text column. Is there a way in Nintex Workflow to convert the Single line of text field to a Person/Group field? Â I tried creating a new Person/Group workflow variable and then using the Convert value action. But when I configure the Convert value action and put the Single line of text field in the Input box, there are no fields to select from in the Store result in dropdown.
