Using SharePoint 2016 on premise. Our users process hundreds of documents each day by reviewing them and updating the metadata associated with each document. We would like to make this process easy and efficient as much as possible. We are looking for an option when the user clicks to open the document in a document library, to have the page display the associated Nintex form on the same window - side by side with the document. I know online SharePoint forms can do that, where the SP OOTB form pops on a panel on the right to update. Is the same concept possible with a Nintex form on-premise? Or can the document be added somehow to the form in a panel open for read only? Like MS Publisher or an iFrame looking panel?
I currently have a Nintex workflow in SharePoint 2019 On-prem library that when a field is updated to a certain value it moves the document set to the appropriate library in Records Center for retention purposes.I'm looking to have a workflow automatically update a list in our working area with the link to the document set that was moved to the Records Center once the move is completed. Does anyone know if this is possible?
I am trying to count/sum the total number of attachments in a nintex form. I will use that number to set a field within the form so a workflow is not optimal.
I'm working in Nintex Forms Designer 2013 and I created a form. There's a panel that I want to hide until the very end, so I'm trying to write a condition to unhide it, if certain controls are picked. The controls don't need to be chosen one after the other either. I saw a sample on how to create it and it didn't work. OutputDelivery!= "Ad-hoc/One Time" || DiscontinueProcessReport!= Yes
I would like to be able to let users copy and paste network file links into the SharePoint form, I am assuming that a rich text field would be the best option. Any pointers or assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, I want to update a field (OP_ID) with a site workflow, if this field is empty. The field should have the value "OP4_[List ID]", but I don't know how to select the List ID in the Action "Update multiple items".
I noticed that after the FPAD rejects a request, the request workflow ends and completes right then and there. I need the workflow to still continue and get the approvals from the approvers that come after the FPAD. I am a beginner in using Nintex Workflows. I need to make this change but I fear messing up the existing live workflow. Here is the current workflow image and the way it is laid out. The workflow stops right after the FDAD rejects and doesn't go on to the CD approval.. How can I fix it?
Hi there, I would love some help with this! My company has Nintex 2019. I would love to copy data from List A (this is more of a working list with many people on it) to a List B (that we store completed data for a while and it does not change). I would like to use a workflow to move this data. List A has has more columns then List B as we don't need all columns in List B. What is the best ways to do this? As a bonus, once the data is moved to List B, it is no longer needed on List A, so it can be deleted/removed.Thanks for your help!
Hello everyone!I'm working on a nintex form based on a list. Is it possible, to Iterate on this list with the form Custom JavaScript option? My main problem is, that i don't know how to call the list. It would be important, to iterate and SumIf one of the columns, before insert a new element. Thinking about something like this:NWF.FormFiller.Events.RegisterAfterReady(function(){NWF$('#' + JDrop).change(function(){var Sum = 0;for (var i = 0; i < MyList.count; i++){ if (MyList[i,2].value == NWF$('#' + JDrop).val()) { Sum=Sum+MyList[i,3].value; } }NWF$('#' + MyJavaValue).val(Sum);});}); Where i have no clue, what to use at the place of "MyList" Thanks for any idea.
Hi all, I have created a simple workflow which will query a list of members and to trigger a Nintex form to gather information from users. I have exported this workflow from one list and reimported it to a new list in a different site collection, when i tried to edit the form in the new list, the system does not allow me to edit the Nintex form. I tried to delete away all the Nintex forms in the <site name>NintexForms folder but i still cannot edit the form, wonder if there is any solution or work arounds?
Environment SharePoint 2019 A sharePoint list with SQL Request dropdown connected to a text column in the list.Trying to add new items in the list using powershell and when the form is opened every field has values except SQL Request dropdown.It doesn't get populated.How do we bind the value to SQL Request dropdown.
I have created a workflow that copies items from one list on one site collection to another list on another site collection. When the workflow is started manually, it runs fine without any issue or error. However, when the workflow is executed via schedule, it always fails with the following error message: "An error has occurred in (Workflow Name)". So far I was not able to find the reason for the crash. And I also do not understand why it only happens when the WF is scheduled. Does anyone have any idea what is going wrong here? Thank you.
Hello Community, I have a list that I'm creating forms off of. My client wants the ability to when a form is created to have it moved/put into a project folder of the same ID. So user fills out form, item is created, workflow starts, during workflow it moves the item into the correct folder it should be in on the list it was created in. I know its able to be done with document libraries just haven't seen anything on the list side. Any thoughts or ideas would be helpful on this subject. Thanks,Kevin
I have a form that required multiple departments to check their "box" that their department has completed its work necessary for the form (request) to proceed to the next step. I set up a condition statement that requires all 9 parameters to be "YES" before proceeding, however - the workflow gets stuck b/c there is no action associated in "checking" to see if the 9 parameters are satisfied (no catalyst). I tried using a loop and it resulting in over processing and multiple emails and multiple checks that timed out. How can I go about having the "last box" or "last dept" complete its checkbox (without an approval task or flex task assigned), and it kicking off the rest of the workflow. There is no order these go in or else I'd do a state machine, its basically 9 departments have to complete their checkbox before the request can proceed, but once all 9 have done so - I want the workflow to go.
Hello! I keep getting the following pop-up error when trying to preview the from that I created, "There are problems with the design of this form and this is causing some errors. Please contact the designer of this form to rectify these. The form is reporting the following errors: Cannot read properties of null (reading '_ObjectType_')" Is there any way of figuring out which part of the form is triggering this error? Thank you for your time!
There is a current attachment issue that I am trying to resolve. A workflow task form has an attachment that is no longer accessible when the task is completed. I need to make this accessible even after task is marked completed. Trying to find bug or remediation documentation but have been unsuccessful. Also, be advised this is implemented for SharePoint on prem.
I would like to report that after exceeding a canvas height limit of 32700 pixels, I receive an error upon attempting to move controls past the specified limit. The canvas limit can be extended further, such as 33000 pixels, however controls within the 32700 and 33000 pixel range cause an error. Kind regards
I have a Responsive form which contains several actions to be completed by different group of people, but i am having issue of 2(or more) people not being able to edit the same form at the same time, what would be the workaround for this issue? Is it possible to even edit responsive form by several people? for example in the image below : top part is related to Employee and below part is related to Supervisor, Each of them are only able to see their own part and problem is basically they can not edit at the same time .there are other steps as well which needs to be done by different groups connected to this same form . one solution i had was to separate everyone's actions and create different lists and then connect them to a main one list
Our company uses internal email addresses that starts a hashtag (like #office@mindef.nl). When i use these in the auto emails of a workflow the work flow crashes. Is there a work-around for this? Does anybody have a suggestion?? Thanks Arno
After exporting a workflow template then importing it to another site collection and publishing with resolved actions, I still get this same error that doesn't give any information on where the issue is. I looked all over this forum, and I find that others are getting this error for different reasons but I find it near impossible to pinpoint where the issue is when there are no more "exclamation points" when the workflow fails to publish. Is there some minor detail I'm overlooking after importing the exported template?"Error publishing workflow. The workflow contains actions that still must be configured. Please configure all actions and try publishing again”
I'm a global admin for the tenant. Trying to add Nintex Workflow for Office365 on our Office365 tenant, but keep getting the same error. Trying to do it later doesn't make any difference. Everything is fine, but we had a small problem getting your license. Please go back to the SharePoint Store to get this app again and you won't be charged for it.
I'm new to Nintex workflow builds. I'm currently just trying to build a workflow, where the user selects an item in a field. Then, it is distributed to the correct individual via email and there they can update any items - approve or deny if enough information is received. If denied I want the workflow to send an email back to the submitter and then mark the item as denied - awaiting additional info. Or, if they mark it as approved to give an option to enter how the item was rectified and send an email to the submitter that it was completed. I started the process by using a Switch item based on what drop down is submitted and then next do I assign an assign flex task for the approve/deny or what should I place after the item is submitted by the user? Does nintex have a prebuilt template I can look at to see how it was setup?
I have created event calendar list in SharePoint. To create an event I have created Nintex form. but the Nintex form is not showing the from date & end date i have clicked to create an event. Sharepoint OOTB form showing the date correctly.
I have a classic approval form that will need to record 4 approvers name, date and time. Next to each button is a text field where I want to output text once the Approve or Reject button is clicked. So when the button is clicked on, lets say the "Approve" button, I would like to set the buttons Fx in the condition area that will output text to the text field that would show something such as "Approved by: "Name" + "Date" + "Time" (screen shot attached).
Hello,I connected a huge database (>20.000 values) via Access to my SharePoint. Now a Workflow should find a variable via "find in list" but gives back value "0".I cannot shorten the list and I don't want to copy it per hand to the SharePoint.How can I solve this?
