Experience Nintex at ESPC24
FORUM POSTS AND DISCUSSIONS
I’m starting a new thread as my old one’s title was solved and I started asking more questions.I will try and be as detailed as possible as what I’m trying to accomplish using simple logic.I have a Nintex for that is using one custom SP list. This is on prem. This list is for capturing information about onboarding and offboarding of employees.There are three panels I am using.The first panel is the people picker, which has a few properties pulling from userProfile such as email and phone number, that get put in each column in the list.The other 2 panels are onboarding and offboarding, respectively. I am using a dropdown menu that controls the display of the Onboarding and Offboarding depending on what is chosen from the dropdown. The dropdown panel is always visible depending on what is chosen from the dropdown.When the onboarding is chosen, there are fields that HR fills out with employee information, such as the hire date, what equipment they need, etc. When that information is fille

I need create a workflow to make a copy of a record and then prompt to update values before saving it to the same list. *Note there are repeating tables involved
I’ve got a very simple workflow that sets a couple of values and sends an email or 2. While working on a modification, i’ve disabled the send email steps to avoid confusion. WF is saved and published but the emails continue to be sent. I’ve even changed the WF so that it can only launch manually yet it’s still firing. Any ideas ? I’m baffled at this behavior.
I have built a site workflow that is taking rows from a list (it's an overtime claim list) and building a CSV file for the payroll team to process onwards for reporting. I tackled this by querying the list and passing each of the fields needed into collection variables. Then it pauses for 1 minute to dehydrate the job to the SharePoint timer service. Next, it passes into a for-each loop, where each of the collections are cycled through in turn to produce the variables. This is done with parallel actions (12). Some of the parallel actions need some regex on the output variables to remove commas (we are saving to a CSV at the end). Within the loop, I am building a string value to collect all the row item data into a chunk.Once exited from the loop, another build string is used to produce headers and then adds the chunk with the appropriate commas to separate. Finally an email goes off to the payroll team with the CSV attached.This worked for test, when I only had a few hundred items in t
Hello everyone! This is my first post on the forum and I am still a novice/rookie at NINTEX for Sharepoint.At my work I am building a Sharepoint site which has 2 lists: List_courses: It contains the names, startdate, end date and a date on which to subscribing students should be informed via email (inform_date) List_students: This list contains the name, contact details of the students and to which course they subscribed. The course of this list is connected to list_courses.For the list_students I created a NINTEX form and a NINTEX form workflow. In the NINTEX form workflow I want to put in a pause for duration. The workflow has to be paused until the inform_date from the List_Courses is reached. Somehow I doing it wrong and the action of Pause for duration is not working how it should be.Could you advice me what I should fill in below at A, B, C, D and E? We use NINTEX in the Dutch language so I put a translations next to the letters. A big thank you in return for your advice! :-)
I saved a sharepoint site as a template. It contains nintex forms and nintex workflows . I created a new site using this template. The new site doesn’t have a published nintex form.When I tried to open a list iem, it opened Sharepoint form. i have to manually publish the nintext form, so that user can use it.
LINKS TO NINTEX HELP FROM NINTEX HELP - BROKEN LINKS https://community.nintex.com/thread/5756I complained earlier about the quality of the HELP CONTENTS...This is one of many many examples.Now I hesitate to even look at NINTEX COMMUNITY HELP because of the prevalence of broken links….
This is for Sharepoint 2019 on-prem.I’m working on a project with Sharepoint lists with lots of views (hundreds of views). If I want to add a new list column and make it visible to all views, is that possible through Nintex workflow so I don’t need to edit each view manually? I’ve been looking at webservice queries but the documentation is very difficult to find and digest. I have seen that I can make newFields through an UpdateList method, but I’m not sure how it works or how the syntax is.A second question I have is if it is possible to add a new view to a list automatically through workflow. For instance if I would supply the list-id (or list name), criteria on which to sort and filter the view, and the view name, all through WF variables. If it is possible, how would it be done?
I have a library with a Form and Workflow attached to it. I have a list which has Manager and Site in it. I want the original library when the Site A is chosen, to go and retrieve the appropriate manager from the Matrix List. How do I best achieve this?
I have a list A with all my workflows and Forms. When I select “Site” in the current list, I want it to go to List 2 which has “Site” and “QA Manager” to lookup the value of Site and return the value associated with it. How do I accomplish that? Table two:A Manager | SiteBob | Site 1Cheryl | Site 2 When Site 2 is Selected in List one, it will return Cheryl to the QA Manager column on List one. Thanks in advance
How do you get ALL list item attachments to merge into the DOCGEN for a single PDF - which routes for final storage. We need ALL pdf’s in one, not the docgen + links to pdf attachments (because the links will break once the holding library deletes that item).
How to configure a LIST wf to list/display all item attachments? The approver needs to see ALL attachments for the item they are approving. They don’t need a link to go back to the item to then click on each attachment. I see training on NWC/nintex cloud, but we are on prem.
SharePoint 2019Version: 5.2.10.0 - InternationalI am having difficulties populating a SharePoint list lookup column with multiple choices that orignate from a NAC form. I can get the first value to populate. But as soon as I add another value, it only populates the first and does not give an error.Requirements:Reason for NAC form and internal SharePoint Nintex form is that we need to allow both external users and internal users to complete the form. The final, “full” list is the SharePoint list. Original data comes from a NAC form. That form doesn't use the same lookup list as the SharePoint form and only uses choices. I need to convert these NAC form choices to the multi-choice lookup column in the SharePoint list so workflows will run on the new item. (I want one place that workflow runs from; so by sending all data to the SharePoint list, I can run the workflows. When an admin views any item from the SharePoint list, it’s a Nintex form that will show the selected value(s) in the lo
Why does the Nintex Workflow Schedular timer job keep getting removed from my SharePoint SE farm? It seems that after evey install of the monthly SharePoint SE CU, the Nintex Workflow Schedular timer job is no longer in the list of farm timer jobs. I have to run the command “NWAdmin.exe -o InstallTimerJob -job ScheduledWorkflows -url https://someurl.com” for each web app for it to appear in the timer job list. Why am I having to add it back to the environment every month or every so often? When is this job initially created by Nintex? Why does it keep dissappearing?
Hello,I am somewhat of a novice in using Nintex. Creating a form from a single SharePoint list is easy; however, I have three SharePoint Lists that I need to connect to one Nintex form. The total number of data columns exceeds the SharePoint limits, hence multiple lists.The goal is that the end user only has to go to one Nintex form to enter data (which populates back to one of the SharePoint lists) and to view information and progress of their project. Is there a version of Nintex, a webpart, a parent-child relationship, or any other option that allows one form to connect to multiple SharePoint lists? If so, what might that be?Thank you!
I am working on a validation rule that will be triggered if a checkbox is checked. If checked, either a value will need to be entered in the textbox or an attachment will need to be added. Currently I have one rule assigned to the textbox control and another to the attachment control.Ultimately, I want a single rule, but I have not been able to get the syntax correct. The textbox validation works as expected. However, the attachment validation will only activate after the textbox validation. Here is the configuration. Checkbox: MFO_Spec_ExceptionTextbox: Spec_Exception_CommentsAttachment: Spec_Exception_Attach (css class attCtrlClassName7) JavaScript: // Spec_Except_Attach// Spec_Except_Attachfunction GetNumberOfAttachments7(attCtrlClassName7){ return NWF.FormFiller.Attachments.GetAttachedFilesCount(NWF.FormFiller.Functions.GetFillerDivObjectForControl(NWF$("#" + NWF$("." + attCtrlClassName7 + " .nf-attachmentsRow")[0].id)).data('controlid'))}Textbox Validation and(MFO_Spec_Excepti
I have a SharePoint List using a Nintex form. The name if the list is "OnboardingOffboarding".I have several columns that contain data records that was input from the Onboarding panel when entering employee information: "Employee", "Manager", "Employees Email", etc. There are 2 panels. One called "Onboarding" and the other is "Offboarding"There is a 3rd panel that has a main People picker that both panels use named "EmployeeName" that's connected to the "Employee" column that we want to utilize for both panels.Once a person is populated in people picker and the "Onboarding" panel is chosen, it pre-populates the employee name, manager, employee email, etc. from userProfileLookup. The other fields are textboxes, dates, and dropdowns. What I need is when the "Offboarding" panel is chosen and you put in a name in the "EmployeeName" people picker, that it checks and matches the Preferred Name value in the "Employee" column, and if true, displays it in the calculated field named "EmployeeDi
Goal - fields set by Site WF will update the List for all items. 2 date fields are required/start variables in the site wf - which kicks off an email with those 2 fields and a link to a new listform. Once the form is begun, the user can save/continue later - and then submit. The list workflow will kick off upon new item and update the item name, route through approvals then PDF the form and send to final destinations. HOW do I configure so that the Site WF, which has collected 2 date fields (stored in variables), will ALSO update in the listform fields (so the user clicks the link to open a new form and the 2 date fields are present) AND those 2 date fields are also populated in the list (for all items). the 2 date fields do not change (until next quarter).
