Hello Everyone,I want to hide a Control unless one of three choices is made. Here's the syntax I've written: FormulaWhenRequestingArea != "Audit" || "P&C Finance" || "Tax"ThenHide I believe I'm close to the correct syntax.  Would someone be able to provide the proper syntax?Thanks!

My first time setting a workflow on the O365 platform and I have an "Assign a Task" configured. The task is created and email notification goes out, but when user tries to indicate an outcome and click submit on the form, the following message appears.  At first I thought it had to do with the attachment, so I removed that field and we tried again, but received same result. User is part of a SharePoint group with "Contribute" access and Assign a Task is configured within an Action Set with Elevated Permissions.  Any assistance would be appreciated on how to get around this error.  

Hi Everyone, I received a requirement to create a Nintex form (SharePoint online) to select time slots for this week. This time slots is basically coming from a person calendar when he is available this week to run the updates on users laptop. Users needs to book the available slots from this Nintex form, once someone selected the available time, it will not appear for another users. How can I connect this form with the receivers outlook calendar? I know how to add time slots and hide it from the form once someone picked up. but I am not sure how to sync this SharePoint list(Nintex form) with outlook calendar? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks, Pooja 

Good day everyone,    Im currently having issues with the Nintex Workflows for Office 365 with the following. My system used to sent email notifications for approvals (Assign a Task) and in the body it had a direct link to the form created that the people that approves open to review the form, that was donde previously with something called Item display name and item URL, but since the change in SharePoint i dont see something similar that works the same.   Can someone please advice?   Regards 

Since there is not a "delegate task" option in 365, I'd like to find another way to reassign a task. Using the task escalation is not an option in my case as I won't always want it escalated to a specific person or timeframe. I want to be able to assign the task to anyone and anytime of my choosing. I get an error, The destination site was unable to process request. The provided credentials might not have access to the site.  My idea was to have a workflow that can manually be executed in the Workflow Task list. I've got it running with elevated permissions. I have two variables that can be set on workflow initiation. Update the task's Assigned To field where Task Title = Task Title Var.When I run the workflow, I get an error of The destination site was unable to process request. The provided credentials might not have access to the site. In the connection manager, I'm using the same connection that has successfully been used to create list items in other sites that the user doesn't ha

Hello Everyone,I hope everyone is having a great day.Question.  Would anyone know how to add a category into a list derived from Nintex List Lookup? The above categories are obtained from List Lookup.  How do I add three more categories? The below is the Nintex column I believe the Form is drawing from ..   Thank you for your help!   

Hello Everyone,I have a Field in a Nintex Forms that will not hide once Previewed.  I've looked at it a hundred times and need another set of eyes.Thank you! Field that needs to be hidden ("Tags"): Rule to hide the above Field: The Rule points to this Field which is NoteChoicesOrig The Field doesn't hide. Thoughts?Thank you!         

In my Nintex form, I have a repeating section that generates a series of incremental ID numbers per row, depending on Quantity entered, via Nintex workflow. I used looping in the workflow to increment the ID numbers. The whole output is displayed in a text area as seen on the screenshot. The problem is how I will address the generation of additional ID numbers if the Quantity is modified/increased in the FIRST ROW, without regenerating the whole series. Instead, the increment will continue by the last sequence of the LAST ROW.  

We're using Nintex 2013, and I have a flexi task set up so that reminders are sent every 10 business days, 3 reminders total. On the escalation screen, it says "Time to Escalation" and then has the days/hours/minutes fields. Is the time calculated from the end of the reminders, or from the original task assigned date? The documentation says, "Escalation occurs after all reminders have been sent and the specified "Time to escalation" has elapsed." That's a little ambiguous to me.Thanks!

Hello Everyone,Is there a way to limit drop down list choices in a field?  Below is a screenshot example: As you can see in the example, I'm able to select AFS, CORP & FRAP within the selection box.  This list is tied to the Nintex List.  Is there a way for me to write a Rule which limits the selection to AFS?Thank you for your thoughts and time.  

Hi All,    I have a workflow that has been migrated from SP On Premise to Online.   One of the differences I found in the IF condition/conditional branch that the option to check if a variable or text field or even a person field is a valid SharePoint user is no longer available.    Does anyone have any recommendations on how to go about completing this action in 365?    I have attached a screenshot of the on premise workflow for clarity.   

Hello,We have colleagues in China and they cannot find Nintex Mobile App in the playstore (android) or appstore (apple). Is it banned by the government or what could be the problem of not finding the App?Thank you.

I am using Office 365. I need to create a custom workflow using Visual Studio 2012. The workflow needs to be triggered whenever any Item in the list in the host web is changed and not in the app web. The app for SharePoint 2013 project allows you to create Visual Studio 2012 workflow project but there is no option to connect to existing list in the office 365 site.

Hello Everyone,The video suggestion "Show/Hide" was helpful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AaBYm7lS03Y I'm now going to create using "Groups".  I couldn't find "Groups" as a function. Thoughts.  Thank you. 

Hello Everyone,Question: Can you make a Nintex Form(s) interactive?  What I mean by that is, can I make a short Nintex Form expand depending on the answers given by members as they complete the Form?  Or is Nintex Form(s) static, where members complete all the answers on 1, 2, 3, 4 (etc.) pages?I would like to create a form that doesn't overwhelm our members with 100 questions - when, in fact, answering just a few questions may be all that is needed.Thoughts?Thank you!  

Hello Everyone & Good Morning!Would anyone know of a link teaching a person how to make a Nintex Form interactive?Thank you & have a great day!

Hello Everyone,Creating a new Form - which is better?  Responsive or Classic?Thank you! 

Hello everyone.  Happy Monday.I'm trying to create a new Nintex Form.  Every time I try to open a new Form, it brings me to the existing form.  Sorry to ask (probably) the obvious.Thank you!     

I'm working on a Component Workflow to replace and extend the discontinued inline function fn-Min.  I wanted to make two numbers mandatory, but up to ten numbers could be entered to find the minimum of the list.  The problem I'm running into is that I can't find a way to determine if a parameter (Initiation Variable) has been left blank.  The blank numbers are just defaulting to zero, and I can't find a way to know that this substitution was made. I thought, maybe if I set the default value to something unique that I could look for.  A Number variable is supposed to be equivalent to System.Double.  System.Double supports NaN, positive and negative infinity, and negative zero.  The Nintex UI prevents me from typing letters into the default value, but I was able to type and save -0.  Unfortunately, I can't do the same in a RunIf action (it removes the "-" as I type), so there's no way for me to check for a value of negative zero, even if I had successfully defaulted to it. Is there any o

Hey so my organization is moving away front InfoPath and looking at potential alternatives and ease of access. We already have many InfoPath files so we ideally would want to migrate those instead of starting over completely from scratch.Currently I am heavily considering Nintex with Kudzu where it automatically converts your InfoPath files into Nintex. This will save a lot of time and effort if there are solutions available that would automatically convert the existing InfoPath files as well as for future use.I am wondering if anyone has any ideas on how to best proceed with away from InfoPath. Any advice would be great

Good morning everyone,I have 28 variables that I would like to add together to get a total amount.  Would anyone know how to do that with a Function?  Otherwise, I could go the long way and perform "Do Calculation[s]" functions multiple times.Thank you for your thoughts and time. 

Hello I have a form and associated workflow where the requestor filling out the form can select from multiple approvers. I'd like to the workflow to send an email to the approver chosen. Currently I have a state machine running branches to all 7 approvers.  Is there a way I can associate the sharepoint list to the name of the person so it will send the approval request to the approver without the state machine?  Any advice?

Good morning everyone, and Happy Friday!I've been assigned a task to write code to Autofill/Auto populate a field based on key words.  Would anyone have any pointers/links on how I might start?Thank you! (I have to write code to autofill "Add to a Portfolio" from key words taken from "Describe the Solution").   

Is there a way we can make group of fields read only in new responsive designer form for SharePoint Online. In classic, we have a panel and we can set panel to read only based on the status. How can we achieve this in responsive form.  1. Item level permission won't work, since only group of fields need to be read only. 2. Dont want to set a rule to each field, since I have more than 20 fields.
