I was trying to create an approval workflow using Nintex Workflow, Is there any way we can set a due date for Assigned Task. Reminder is fine but It would be great if either task fails or moves to next workflow step after due date.

I have a workflow with a switch with 10 branches.  I'm trying to match the Shipping Point Name in List "Shipping Point" to Shipping Point selected in the form, and return the title column from the list which has numbers 1-10 of which branch the workflow should take.   The number from Title column in Shipping Point list is not being stored in the variable, and therefore isn't being passed to the switch. The build string was a suggestion from another post but didn't resolve anything and can be removed The send notification before the switch is to send an e-mail with the testNum variable that is supposed to be getting passed to the switch but it is blank every time.   Here is a view of the shipping point list. Matching Shipping Point Name with the Shipping Point from the form and return the Title number to choose the switch:

Hi,   I have a sharepoint list which its default permissions are Owners - Full Control, Members - Contribute (so that members can add new items to the list). The list has a Nintex form and workflow. Each person should see only his/her own items (owners should see everything). When the workflow starts, it starts by removing the members permissions and adding the employee with edit permissions. The whole workflow takes about 5 minutes (not sure why, it's very simple), and the first permissions grant takes about 20-30 seconds which means that during this time all employees can see the posted items within that time-frame. How can this be resolved? This is a major problem for us. Thanks, Shiran

Hello,   I have a new item form with a dropdown control. The dropdown control is connected to a lookup field, which is connected to another list.   When I use the form on its own it is working, in the dropdown I can chose from the values from the lookup list. When I integrate the form via list form webpart to another site, everything is working except the drop down control. It doesn't show any values. I thought it might be a permission problem, but I gave myself full access to everything I could find and it still doesn't work. Does anyone know, what the problem could be?

Hi everyone   I have created a column as number which is a calculated value based on another number column divided by a constant value. My example: ColB = ColA/0,23. Sharepoint seems to accept my syntax as correct, but when I want to add the "result column" ie ColB from my example, I cannot find the column in Nintex form builder under SharePoint List Columns.    Is there something I am missing? I could altertanitively do the calculation in Nintex forms. If this is the method I should use, please could you advise on the syntax?   Thanks Kirk

We recently setup an on premise SP2019 Farm and installed/configured Nintex Forms/Workflow 2019. When a list form is created and published, the list is modified to display in Classic experience. If we change the List experience to New experience, the default SP2019 Form is displayed. I found only one existing post asking about this and it has been sitting untouched for sometime. One forum member responded suggesting a support request be sent to Nintex. Before I do that, I want to hear from the Community. Thanks in advance Bill

I Have a Nintex Flexi Task which has approve and Reject options and I am using Nintex Forms , I want the * symbol next to the comments label as i have already made the Comments field mandatory using the Validation Rule isNullOrEmpty({Self}). The comments are stored in a variable i have created and are updated in the List. In the List settings I have marked the "it contains Data" for Comments filed as Yes.   Please help me out any leads appreciated. Thanks in advance. Sachin

Hello, We have a need to create an item in a site where the user will not have permissions.  Will the "workflow can use app permissions" feature fix the issue?  I noticed that under this situation the Error Occurence is True but there is no Error Message.   Thanks,

Hi all,   I need to utilize a lot of data which is excel-list-based. Unfortunately within Forms the possibilities are limited. So I thought of doing an excel-list to sharepoint-list export with a workflow once a night to have the data sharepoint-list-based.   I tested it with an excel table with 10 colums x 500 rows. Generally this is working: start loop Using Excel services to get data of first (second, third, etc) row, save it to a collection, loop through the collection, get data, create new item within sharepoint-list. End loop   But workflow is quiet slow. The first item in the sharepoint-list is generated immediately, but the next rows need 1-2 minutes each. Is that because of the loop??   Taking this speed into acount, it is not possible to work with a lot of Excel data, right?!   Any advice?   Cheers mai-kel      

  I’m using SharePoint 2013 and Nintex 2013.     I have a large excel file with more than 500 rows of data.  There are 7 column headers in the excel file: Technical Part, Competency, Q Group ID, Question Header, Q ID, Question, Skill Title   The file is a questionnaire that new employees are given to ask which skills they have. For example:  Technical Part Competency Q Group ID Question Header Q ID Question Skill (Question) Title Architecture Technical Architecture 300 Please rate your level of experience working with the following: 1115 Mainframe operating systems to implement application solutions Mainframe operating systems System Development Process Management 252 Please indicate your level of experience with the following aspects of the IT risk management process: 910 Distinguishing between risk vs issues Distinguish between risk vs issues System Development Applications Testing 240 Please indicate your level of knowledge of each of

Hey,   I have a workflow where I am assigning a task via request data. Unfortunately the approval url which is sent to the users does not work. I have already found why the url is not working. It's structure is the following:  https://sharepoint-d.company.net:88/teams/TestEnvironment/Lists/Nintex Workflow Tasks/EditForm.aspx?ID=209   If I am deleting the :88 out of the url it is working.  Here some background information: The workflow which is assigning the task is a child workflow. If I integrate the request data operation into its parent workflow the link is generated without the :88.

When use selects the TYPE -- the form should update the Title + Current Date. Example: Option 1 - 12/5/2019

Hi,I currently have a Nintex Workflow Cloud Form that needs a combo box with dynamic values in it. The list of items that can be selected will necessarily change throughout the day.So far, we have constructed a Web API with an OpenAPI specification (Swagger file) to do this and via the Nintex Xtensions feature we can successfully make Web API calls to our bespoke system; we can subsequently use the obtained JSON results in Nintex Workflows as designed. However, can we use JSON objects to populate a combo box in a Nintex Workflow Cloud Form? If not, is it a feature being considered? Does a workaround exist on the platform to achieve what we're after? I am aware of the x-ntx-dynamic-values Swagger file parameter extension, but this only appears to apply within the Workflow Designer, and not in Forms. I have considered using some other string as a searchable property and a regular text box instead of the unique identifier our system uses, but in our case the "name" of our item is not boun

My client currently uses SP 2013 with Nintex Workflow. They are going to upgrade to SP 2016 and move some sites to SPOnline.  I need to put together a decision tree that shows which sites can be moved and which ones cannot. Some of the criteria will be associated with Workflows. Where can I find documentation that compares the actions available in Nintex WF 2013/16 and Nintex Cloud?Also, does anyone have any suggestions about criteria to consider or lessons learned from similar projects?

Hi everybody! I'am new at this community so i hope you can help me with this trouble i'am having...Actually i have Nintex Workflows and Nintex Forms installed on my WFE server. Recently we've purchased 2 new licences to incorporate the same products on the second WFE2, and here comes the questions:Do i have to install the products on the new WFE2 or is it enough to license both products on the WFE2 through the Central Admin? Or do i have to do both things? In what order?Thanks very much.Licha

With the JavaScript function "NWF.FormFiller.PrintToPDF.PrintToPDF();"  I  can print the form with a JavaScript button. That is great!Unfortunately I have not seen any possibility to preselect the storage Folder (for exampe the URL of a document library). How can I preselect an URL? Furthermore is it also possible to save the printed form without the interaction of the user in preselected folder (e.g. document library url in SharePoint)?   I think about a save button with which the print form and the list item data are saved. It would be great to reuse the "print form" in the workflow.  

I have a NINTEX form with a number of panels. Panel1 contains the personnel information for which the user is required to click on "Submit" after data entry, which kickstarts the workflow1.   Please, note that the approvals are expected to be completed on the NINTEX form (not within the approval workflow task), all in Edit Mode.   a) Workflow1 should have Panel1 disabled, Panel 2 enabled and Panel Supervisor's review and approval in Panel2 to Panel8 disabled, based on a people-picker. b) Workflow2 should have Panel1, Panel2 disabled and Panel3 enabled (if the current user is a member of a specified Sharepoint group), and Panel4 to Panel 8 disabled. c) Workflow3 should have Panel1, 2 and 3 diabled and Panel4 enabled (if the current user is a member of a specified Sharepoint group), and Panel4 to Panel 8 disabled ...and so on until Panel 8 is reviewed and approved.   I think this has to be done using rules within my form, however, i have not been able to get each Panel enabled, based on
