Nintex Automation K2

Hello Everyone, I have a weird predicament (I have found a workaround, I am just hoping I can understand the issue better).  I have a Picker that pulls data from AD and takes  a User ID and places it into a different field. I had an issue of the User ID staying in the control, it would disappear quickly (not sure why). To fix that Issues I added an initialize method to the rule that changed the picker to execute the initialize method. This view also happens to have a checkbox list. If I enter data into the checkbox list first and then get a name from the picker the initialize method that occurs after the picker has been changed clears out the checkbox list. I have added screen shots of a reproduction of the issue:Screenshot 1: Picture of viewScreenshot 3: screenshot of after Picker filled  Thank you, Paul

Hello All, I am developing a workflow in K2 Five with an Smart Object from a table from SQL Server. When the task e-mail notification arrives, and I click the link, I am redirected to the default K2 form. I want to make a custom readonly form of the item with an ability to approve ort reject the task? Does anyone have a step by step tutorial of this? Many thanks, Regards, S

So. Pretty complicated project I have here.I need to read an Exchange mailbox and when new messages come in, I need to read the information in the body, extract the pertinent details and put then into a K2 SmartObject and start a workflow.I also need the workflow to be able to check the SmartObject to make sure it catches duplicates because I don't control the sytem that is sending the message and it has been made abundantly clear to me that the developer of the system that is sending the duplicates will not be fixing that problem.  So I need to catch the duplicates on my end.  I already have a script that will read the mailbox and parse the pertinent information into variables that I can pipe through an API.  So I was thinking I can use the SmartObject OData API to get the information into the SmartObject. The problem is ~ How do I start a workflow on that item in the table and how do I prevent duplicate entries in the table/workflows?

Hi, Does anyone have any success stories of using the SmartForms Tester in K2 Five? It looks like it could be a great and powerful tool but I am having difficulty with it. Issues:I cannot view any detail against any of the test cases in the Example Test Suite provided by K2 I cannot Save any tests that I create. I do not have the option to select a Test Suite (!) I cannot find any documentation for this tool for K2 Five I discovered the tool by following a blog for K2 4.7. You can access the Test Manager in the K2 Designer:Launch K2 Designer > Browse Bottom of Left-Hand Items panel > Click Show (All) Select the System checkbox Search and Locate the 'SmartForms Tester - Landing Page' Form Launch the Runtime URL for this form Any help much appreciated! Screenshot of accessing SmartForms tester below:

Just trying out the new K2 Five designer. How are the new advanced SmartObject works in the new K2 Five? Right now I am using K2 studio or Visual Studio to design advanced SmartObjects and one of the configuration step was "Add Service Method Link" where you can configure how are the methods being linked. I don't see this at all in the new designer nor in the new K2 guide. Am I missing anything here? Thanks

I'm trying to call  SmartObject's List method in email body. I want to get first value where  result is filtered by two fields. But i can't do it.Did K2 reduce this functionality and now i need to use stored procedure each time when i want to  filter result by two or more fields?

Hi, I have three or could be more path in the future doing the same approval. Viewing the same information but different approving body.Right now I have three groups approving 1one information. Please see snapshot below. below workflow is working already but what I need is to combine the three into 1 path only since all three path are doing the same. (Approve and reject).I need it because an approving group is increasing every week due to business direction. for your guidance. 

How can I customize the "Approve" action in the workspace so that it saves everything that's been added/changed in my form. Currently, I have a Submit button at the bottom of my form that will do this. However, during testing in the Workspace, I discovered that if I click on the "Actions" button at the bottom of the screen and click the Approve button, my attachments aren't saved to my form  

Category selection from drop down list showing category ID instead of Category Name.I have no idea how to change this nor have I been able to locate anything in training or documentation or other forum posts on how to fix this.  

My Smartforms having 3 views (header, detail, attachment) I need to manage failure and successful transaction during submit. Start TransactionExecute view1.. createExecute view2.. createExecute view3.. create if @Status = Success   Commit Transactionelse (failed)   Rollback for your guidance as I am new to k2

I have a split in workflow but it only goes to 1st task because of IF-then-End condition.I need a case condition. IF Action1 = true then "Core Task" endIF Action2 = true then "NE Task" endIF Action3 = true then "IN Task" end Action1 = 1Action2 = 0Action3 = 1 Split will line rules will go to both Action1 and Action3 task at the same time.   I am having difficulty upgrading my k2 studio (v4.7) workflow to k2 five.

We use Visual Studio for developing our workflows (source control reasons). I understand that older workflows will stay the same, however.. Does K2 Five support developing the new workflow styles in Visual Studio?

Let's say we have three applications, app-a, app-b, and app-d. Roles are defined for each application. Now I want the business-owners to be responsible for the management of the permission of their respective apps. For example, a manager in the department-a can add/remove user permissions for app-a etc. Is there any built-in mechanism in K2 Five that allows this, or do we have to develop our own forms/workflows with the UserManagement SmartObjects?

Hi, Our customer is starting using K2 Workspace mobile app. In our task notifications we are redirecting users to Workspace URL and in mobile devices this link show a page asking users to user mobile app's showing three suposed links (one for iOS, one for Android and one for Android). The problem is that no deep link is configured in this "links" and user can't click there to be redirected to the mobile app. Is there something to do to configure this links? Thanks

Hi there, Apologies if this is a stupid question but I am quite new to K2. I have set a 'Manager Approval' task on a basic request workflow and want to send the task to the manager and also to two proxy managers stored in AD. The first thing I have done is create fields in a smartobject to store the email addresses of the proxy managers, these fields are called 'Proxy 1' and 'Proxy 2'. I then call AD to populate these fields as soon as the user initializes the form, i.e. before the workflow starts. The SMO references for 'Proxy 1' and 'Proxy 2' are then passed into the Recipients section of the 'Managers Approval' task  The issue I am having is that the task is being sent to the originators manager but not to either of the proxy managers. Appreciate any info or advice you can provide to help solve this issue. Thanks 

I've got this error when using split from my workflow in k2 five. The "Split" step rules has one or more rules with empty Common fields It is a parallel task depending on the value of Action1, Action2 and Action3.If one or more is/are true then the process should go to each task designated.
