I have a workflow on a task list. What it does is take an item and then create a new item based off the original. The new due date is calculated and assigned in the workflow. So if the task is marked as annual, I add one year to the original due date and then assign that new date. Same with monthly, quarterly, etc. The problem is coming up that sometimes that date isn't being assigned. I can't tell for certain, but it seems kind of random of when the date is being assigned and when it isn't. I'm not sure what the issue could be. Any help would be appreciated.

I am new to creating a variable to be used on the New Responsive Form that will calculate a future date when taking into consideration two columns with different field types. Column A is a date/time column and Column B is a number column. For my list I am using a calculated column with the following formula to display a date:Â =IF([Days Supply]>80,[Last Disp]+([Days Supply]-15),[Last Disp]+([Days Supply]*0.75))Â I would like for this date to also appear on the form for end users to see when working on a profile, but every time I create the form variable it comes with an error. Any advise would be much appreciated.Â
Hi.... I have been able to redirect users to an alternate URL from the 'action panel' when they submit or cancel, however, I am attempting to redirect if a user just closes out the form. Anyone able to point me in the right direction???Cheers!
Hi,We are migrating from SharePoint 2016 to SharePoint Online with the corresponding Nintex. One of the Nintex features we heavily use is the global (long term) task delegation for when someone is out-of-office for a period of time. I have not been able to find it in Nintex Online, am I missing where it is located or is this feature not available? Is there another tool that can accomplish it?  If it is not available I would love to know how others have resolved their long-term task delegations.  Thank you in advance,Barb

Hi Everyone,I have a scenario where I am trying to create a Nintex form for O365 SharePoint List. There is a input field "Account" on my form (connected to List 1). The form can submit only if the value entered in "Account" field either doesn't exist in List 2 "Account" column or does exist in List 2 "Account" column but "Valid" is Yes. If the Account field does contain the value and "Valid" is set to No it should not submit and show an error to user that form cannot be submitted.  List 2 is setup in a way it has 2 columns - Account (Single line of text) and Valid (Yes/No) fields. Is this feasible with Nintex forms? Please help I am new with Nintex.Â
On several occasions marketing text from Nintex has been inserted into e-mail actions in workflows. The latest is the following:New SharePoint Online and Nintex Workflow Cloud integration We have released the new Integrations feature allowing you to integrate SharePoint Online to Nintex Workflow Cloud. Create an integration to start building your workflows on Nintex's next-generation automation platform. Integration provides a seamless experience, allowing you to use both Nintex for Office 365 Classic and Nintex Workflow Cloud to design your workflows. To create an integration navigate to the Integrations page in the Settings menu in Nintex Workflow Cloud. See the Integrations help topic for more information.It gets inserted with the class "k-paste-container" that hides it in the e-mail editor. You can only see it if you open the html code editor. We reported this to our sales rep and his solution is that we need to go in and just delete the code. Has anyone else experienced this in th
The problem is that Choice Field Nintex Workflow email shows too much script to end user so how this can be corrected to look like nicer and like a normal email.This how it looks now in email: {"__metadata":{"type":"Collection(Edm.String)"},"results":["iPhone","LG","Windows"]}

Workflow was spinning on "Connecting to site" so I removed the app from the site and reinstalled it (twice) but it will not show up as an option in the sharepoint list.Â
What I've done in the past is (SharePoint on Prem 2013) just use the ContextItemURL and make it pop up in a new window. Is there not a better way to do this now? We don't save every item on the form to a list item just the the "Grand Total" and items that need to be saved. I thought for sure there would be a better way to do this.
Hello, Â We are working on Nintex Forms and workflows onprem on SharePoint 2016 environment. Â We are using responsive form design for all the Submit forms and for the task forms(around 20-30fields). However, when we have a workflow with for example 4 flexi tasks and each flexi task having custom Nintex task form with responsive design, and now when we export the workflow, the size of the workflow goes above 10~15MB! This is because the each custom task form huge in size. Because of this when we export the workflow and remotely connect to client environment and import the workflow, it takes a long time and most of the time it just fails! Â May i know any solution for this and also why responsive forms so heavy in size?
I am currently using SharePoint O365 custom list with a New Responsive Form. I am looking for a way to utilize my calculated column to calculate the difference between two dates, but to exclude Sundays from that calculation (as these are considered exception dates). I also need to be able to reflect the difference on my form as well.Column Calculation so far:Â =[Completion Date]-[Received Date]Form Variable Formula so far:Â Â dateDiff("totaldays",[Form].[Received Date],[Form].[Completion Date])
I am looking for a way to check if a user exists either in User Profile or Azure. Currently if a user has been disabled or doesn't exist the workflow errors and is suspended.Is there any workarounds so that I can capture this response and stop the workflow from suspending?

I have an Approval workflow which I must have different Initiator and Author (which is the Modified by), but as the Workflow changes the item the Modified by field gets the initiator as the Modified by, instead of getting the last one that has updated the document...Is there any workaround to get the last Modified by (before initialisation)?
In a Workflow we have some Tasks Forms where the users should have the ability to view attachments from the related list item and also add new files or delete a selected file when approving the task.We have added a panel to the Task Form and render the related Attachments as also a input of type file into that panel.This is working fine. But the code to add a new file or delete a file does not work. We get 405 Method not Allowed.We use following code with type:POST to add a file:context = new SP.ClientContext(appweburl); factory = new SP.ProxyWebRequestExecutorFactory(appweburl); context.set_webRequestExecutorFactory(factory); var executor = new SP.RequestExecutor(appweburl); var fullUrl = appweburl + "/_api/SP.AppContextSite(@target)/web/lists/getbytitle('" + listName + "')/items("+ID+")/AttachmentFiles/add(FileName='" + file.name + "')?@target='" + encodeURIComponent(hostweburl) + "'"; executor.executeAsync({ url: fullUrl, type: "POST", processData: false, contentType: "application/j
Is it possible to attach the attachments from the item properties to the task notification email? This is a requirement for me and I do not see an option in the Task configuration to do this. Any help is appreciated

We have noticed an issue after migrating the forms (using Sharegate) from OnPremise to O365. The FormData field does not seem to have copied over. When we try to query the fieldIt gives the below message saying “ Field or property ‘FormData’ does not exist“   The data in the field is critical in multiple forms, We wanted to know how this can be ported over
In my workflow, I have a Run If step. I would like the actions in it to only run when two person fields are different. The problem I'm experiencing is when both person fields are null (no values have been stored into the list columns). When they are both null, the workflow sees them as different, which I don't want. How do I tell the workflow that null = null?
