In Nintex 2013, on an Assign Flexi Task Form, when I select yes or no in a 'Choice' connected to Decision (Task column), a Calculated value always shows -1 for the choice (same for yes and no). I can only make a difference between the values when I don't connect it to the Decision task column, but I have to because I have to move on from the Flexi Task in the Workflow. How can I solve this?

 

One possible solution for me is to add 2 Choices to the Form, one connected to Decision, the other is not connected, but only showing the user one of which to choose from, and according to the choice the other Choice will be the same. How is it possible to set automatically the value of a Choice Form Control according to the choice of the other Choice?

Hello @Mate, to get the reference ID of a value connected to Decision: 



1- specify a name for the Decision Control



2- Add a calculated value to your form and insert your Named Control Decision  in the formula



3- Publish the form and workflow, and run the worklfow 



In runtime, the calculated value will display the correct reference ID for the Decision field.



 



but, I am wondering why you don't add the options (Yes,No) as outcome in the Flexi Task Settings and automatically the worklfow will create branch for each outcome


Hello @DimaHijazi, Thanks for your reply! I've already did those steps. Unfortunately, I don't have access (and can't gain until it has to be done) to run the workflow, so I can test it only in preview mode.



 



I tried to add the yes/no to the outcome, but in that case both of them have the -1 value which is my first problem in this ticket. But I have to have different values for them if I use the Decision's yes/no as the outcome, because I have to do other actions according to yes or no (hiding items on the Form)
