Recently, I have had the privilege of working with several local government Promapp clients as they labor to establish process management as a discipline within their agencies. One of the most important pieces to a successful process management program is a clear and effective process framework. Many organizations choose to create a custom framework, while other opt to leverage existing frameworks made available for public use through various consortiums. The American Productivity & Quality Center (APQC) has developed and published many free process frameworks for download. Among these is the APQC Process Classification Framework (PCF) for City Government (available for PDF download

An increasingly common request on the Nintex Workflow Cloud platform is to save a form without submitting, so the form can be picked up and completed at a later time. Users want to be able to partially enter information, maybe grab a coffee or a pint and finish entering the data at their leisure.  In this post, I'll walk through a workaround using variables and Nintex Task Forms that will achieve this functionality, allowing your end users to complete a form piecemeal as they see fit. This solution will be for Nintex Workflow cloud and the workflow is available in the Nintex Process Gallery  If you would like to watch a walkthrough, and see this in practice, please see the video below:  The basic components for this workflow / form will be as follows:A st

As a systems integrator in the Microsoft SharePoint space I often get asked comparative analysis questions on forms and workflow products. Due to the announced end of life of InfoPath, one of the more common comparisons I see is on Nintex Workflow and Forms compared to PowerApps and Flow. Since I’ve had a number of meetings on this topic with multiple clients, as well as discussions with folks at Nintex, I thought I’d share what I’ve learned. Why Compare These ProductsIt may seem obvious but I always find it important to be very clear about our argument for comparison. The primary reason I hear from client is:“We got InfoPath for free and now we’re going to get PowerApps and Flow free with our E3 licenses, why would we pay for Nintex?”No surprises here, cost is the primary driver. My comparison below will cover a lot of feature differences as to why you would pay for Nintex, and what you get for that extra cost. Some of the elements, like ease of u

After conducting months of research and collecting valuable feedback from our Nintex customers, we are extremely excited to announce that from early November, we're releasing a new Nintex Analytics portal! Here are some key improvements we're delivering with the new Nintex Analytics portal:Scalable infrastructure: the new portal has been built from the ground up using Azure Data Lakes,  which ensures a performing experience and enables deeper insights across your Nintex process platform. Data Accuracy: by rebuilding our data infrastructure from scratch, we were able to ensure data accuracy as a first and most important goal. We know how critical data is for key decision-making and that had the highest focus from our Engineering and Product teams. Ease of Use: Smooth migration from Nintex Hawkeye, little time to get started Single sign-on: users ca

Recently, I created my first connection to Microsoft SQL Server from Nintex Workflow Cloud. My target database was hosted in SQL Azure. Because I was using SQL Azure, I encountered a few minor snags that I thought I would share to save others some time. As you might expect, setting up a new SQL connection requires 6 values to be specified:Connector - Select Microsoft SQL Server from list of available connectors Connection - Give the connection a friendly name Database Host - Server hosting the database Database Name Username Password My first attempt to create the connection returned a generic error message:Connection ErrorAn error has occurred with creating your connection. Please try again later.To troubleshoot this the first thing I looked at was the format of the value of the Database Host value. This value cor

I jumped right in to building a form... I got this! I plugged away adding items as fast as I could and before I knew it I had a decent size form put together. Time to run it! Well. yeah my layout in the forms designer looked a whole lot better than in runtime. Controls were overlapping, pushed to the left, pushed to the right........ When applying rules especially hiding and showing items would totally shift items at will. I got some great support from Nintex after many hours of struggling to get the form to behave the way I wanted it to.Bottom line: Panels Avoid just dropping items on a form. Use panels to group your form elements into logical sections.Here's an example of how Panels helped solve a problem: I applied a rule that wou

Sometimes we have disconnected data in our form that we do not require in the underlying list, but may need as part of our workflow process.In this example I show you how to utilise the very helpful Form Data available in Nintex Workflow to pull information from the form that submitted the data in the first place. List SettingsCustom list with title field as standard called "FormDataDemo" Form SettingsCustomise the "FormDataDemo" list using Nintex Forms Add Single Line Textbox control to the form with the following settings: Name:  UnconnectedTextBox Connected to:  Not connected Data type:  String Publish the form Workflow SettingsNew nintex workflow on list "FormDataDemo" Start when items are created Query XML action

A while back I wrote this blog about copying attachments from a list item to a document library. Well times have moved on and technologies change. I'm currently learning my way around O365 and of course Nintex Workflow and Forms for the platform. My requirement this time was similar, but with a twist. I'm creating a Mobile App that will allow frontline users to go out to sites and fill in inspection forms. The customer is keen for these inspections to be visually orientated so therefore they're going to be taking pictures on tablets to provide evidence that a section has met standards. At least 1 photo needs to be taken for each section. A section is going to be a particular area of the store (Front of House, store room etc). We then need to be able to easily identify section the photo was taken via me

Due to the launch of and upgrade to Nintex Analytics, support for and access to Nintex Hawkeye will end on May 3, 2021. If you have not yet upgraded to Nintex Analytics, you will need to do this before May 3, 2021. See the Nintex Analytics quick start guide for information on how to upgrade to Nintex Analytics in 5 easy steps. If you have already upgraded to Nintex Analytics, you don’t need to take any action. Why has Nintex Analytics replaced Nintex Hawkeye?Nintex Analytics provides the same great functionality you had in Nintex Hawkeye, plus much more. Based on feedback from customers like you, Nintex Analytics was built to ensure data accuracy and scalability while continuing to provide easy-to-use reporting capabilities. With Nintex Analytics, you’ll have a robust infrastructure, pre-built dashboards and a w

A question was posted about delegation the other day and it made me realise that there is quite a lot to know about delegation that can be picked up along the way, so thought I would blog about everything I have learnt to date!Tasks that allow delegation:Assign flexi taskIn the configuration of this action the workflow developer has a few of options for delegation:Action tab – Allow delegationThe help for this option states:When this option is selected, the assignee at runtime can delegate the task to another user. Changing the 'Allow delegation' option on the 'Action' screen is the same as changing the 'Allow delegation' option for all assignees on the 'Task Notification' ribbon option.This means that when the task assignee opens the task to respond, they will see a link to delegate the task to someone else.  They can choose this

In part one of this series we reviewed using a Google Doc as a template with the Generate Document action in Nintex Workflow Cloud. In this example we'll go into some more detail around adding Document Generation tags into a Google Sheet and appending rows using the new Google Sheets actions before generating the document. As was the case with the Google Doc setup from the previous post, we will be using the Google Workspace Export Xtension from the Nintex Process Accelerator gallery.   If you'd prefer to watch a walkthrough rather than read about it, please check out the video below.  To start, you will want a Google Sheet

When the Nintex Community was first launched in 2014, its main purpose was to provide an online forum where Nintex customers and partners could ask questions, find solutions, and share knowledge.  If you were one of the early participants in the Nintex Community, you may recall that this is what it looked like!How far we’ve come!Obviously, the Nintex Community site that we all know and love now no longer looks like that, but it’s always nice to remember where we started. Seven years and 20,000+ registered members later, the purpose of the Nintex Community hasn’t changed. Rather, the Nintex Process Platform has evolved. From product redesigns and new capabilities, to an increasing number of resources available, Nintex has continued to grow and suppor
