Nintex for SharePoint

Hello, In our branch we are currently using Nintex Forms, and we want to use a Nintex workflow behind it which automaticaly changes the subject conform our File Naming Convention. For example a client uploads the document test123.txt and fills out the required Nintex Form and the Workflow changes the subject to : [Date]_[Originatorofdocument]_[Title]_[Version] and uploads it into the library.  What's the best way to do this? I'm rather new to Nintex Workflows.

HiWe are implementing a solution for pdf filler form with digital signature in sharepoint 2016 (onprem) with workflow.Scenario as follow:Library will contain all pdf forms (if possible else one library for each form) User opens the forms, fills and saves back to the library Workflow picks the form and routes to approvers for signature (digital signature) Workflow collects all the signature (if it has multiple signatory) and completes the workflow.Is this solutions achievable without any third party tools like pdfsahreforms / muhimbi? Does SPD workflow has capability to achieve this solution without nintex?Appreciate your thoughts.

HiWe are building a pretty straight forward business project that uses SharePoint 2010 and Nintex workflows. Just the usual lists with workflows attached doing stuff to the list items.Nintex workflows can do pauses for X number of days that exclude holidays if the holiday dates are entered through the Nintex "Manage Holidays" action in the settings for a web. It just lets you enter a bunch of Name + Date combinations. That's great and lets the workflows do their job nicely.Now, we'd like to be able to do custom calculations in a web service that a Nintex workflow can call, that also take those holidays into account. The calculations are just too complex to do with the features that Nintex gives you - which is fine.My question is; is there some way to query that list of dates that we have entered for Nintex to use? They're not stored in any SharePoint lists, hidden or otherwise; they go straight into the Nintex database. I have looked at the Nintex workflow webservice - all the function

I have a scheduled site workflow and noticed it hasn't run since 4/28/2022. When I went into Central Admin -> Monitoring -> Timer Jobs -> Review job definitions I saw that it was listed. How do I get this job to show back up in the job definitions list? 

Hello.  I am trying to work around an issue where show/hide logic is not working (the first time) for a form variable. Here is the form variable:  ifElse((contains([Form].[parselookup Technology Type],"Laptop")||contains([Form].[parselookup Technology Type],"Printer")||contains([Form].[parselookup Technology Type],"Monitor")||contains([Form].[parselookup Technology Type],"Computer")),"Return Center","") And this works fine.... Then, I have a 'show' form rule that states:  If [Form].[Return Center check]=="Return Center" is 'Yes', then 'Return Center Warning' 'visible' is 'Yes'.  This works.... However, if I create the form rule: If [Form].[Return Center check]=="Return Center" is 'No', then 'Return Center Warning' visible is 'No'. It works.....until I try to show again. THEN the only way it works is if I choose the first value "Laptop".  I can see with a label that the value returns to "Return Center", but the show rule does not work anymore unless I choose laptop

We are using Nintex for SharePoint 2019 on prem.  Does anyone know if Nintex AssureSign is available for that yet?  If not do you know when it will be available?  I don't see it in the actions yet.

Hello everyone, I'm trying to design an inspection checklist where several items are "recycled" but found in different locations. If the item in question is defective, then they mark it as "Not OK" and enter the remarks. However, I noticed that every time I mark the item in one location during Preview, it also affects the answer in the same item in the other location. How can I ensure these two have different answers if they are using the same column but are in different locations? I have seen the Repeating Section as a possible option but the problem with this is asking the user to always click on Add New to add the same fields when I intend to show all fields on the form to prevent them from missing a step.  Sample of columns required: Office Designer: Meeting Room Designer: 

We have received Nintex License-2013.nlf file from client to renew licensing. Could anyone please help me to know how can I check which license file need to be applied on which server/application and if that file is related to development environment or production environment.

I have created a form that once submitted I would like it to populate a response form and send this to an appropriate person to fill out, does anyone know if this is possible?

I have a list workflow that creates a workflow task (in a task list) for a role. However, the users want to be able to complete multiple tasks at once, so I made a JavaScript button (on a page) that sets the tasks status to completed. A workflow in list A creates tasks in task list B. Task form fields are connected to the columns in list A, but when the tasks' status are set to complete using the JavaScript button, any modifications saved to the task form using the save button in the form view are lost. Is there any way I can mass complete tasks while saving the modifications made to the task? 

Good Day, I have a form that is a little long; how do i add a anchor to move to the top of the form? Is it even possible on Nintex forms? Thanks,Jennifer

Hi all, I just took charge of some old Nintex workflows. Is there a way to check how the existing variables are constructed?

It was recently brought to my attention that older submissions of a Nintex 2016 form have lost data from a repeating section.  The last modified date on the items is well in the past so I don't think a user overwrote the data. The only thing I can think of is that I named a pre-existing control in the repeating section on the form.  Would this cause this kind of data loss? Thanks in advance!

Good morning, In our company we currently have a basic Nintex workflow with an acceptation / denial service for reservation of our company cars. (Check image Nintex Workflow Car) The customer fills out the Nintex Form and the workflow starts, is there a possible way too automatically check for Double bookings or prevent double bookings? Sadly we can't use JAVA scripts in the advancement settings of Nintex Forms by company restricticions.

Is it possible to use "Approval URL" from "Assign Flexi Task" or "Request data" actions in "Send notification" access? When i cut the source code with  "Approval URL" from  "Request data" action, and paste it in "Send notification" action, then the link is not working. In "Send notification" action in Common section there is no "Approval URL" reference. Is there a workaround for this? Thanks!

Hello all,I've created a mini-service desk application in SharePoint 2013 with Nintex Workflow 2013. One of the workflows parses the subject of an incoming email to look for a ticket number, and if it finds a ticket number, updates the ticket number field automatically. I can get this workflow to trigger when an item is modified, but I can't get it to trigger when an item is created. After searching these boards, I discovered that this is by design. Workflows won't execute automatically on a system-created item. My next step was to create a site workflow to do the same thing. So far, I've been unsuccessful, which I assume is because I've never worked with collection variables before. Here's what I'm doing: Query list for any items where the ticket number field is blank and store those items' ID numbers in a collection variable For each item in that collection variable, store the ID in a single line of text variable Query list for an item that matches the ID variable and store the Email

Hello, I have a Nintex form and workflow connected to a SharePoint list. The form is a temporary account creation request form, and I have a Date/Time field on the form called "Set Expiration Date". When the expiration date is 14 days or less away from the day the form is being submitted, it requires Person 1's signature. If the expiration date is more than 14 days away, it goes to Person 2 for an approval signature. I have a "Set a Condition" action on my workflow to set this above condition, and make the workflow go in which ever direction based on what expiration date is set on the form. Although no matter what, even the number of days are greater than 14, the condition ALWAYS goes to which ever side I set the less than or equal to 14 to. I tried flipping the condition too to see if this would magically fix it, but it still goes to the <=14 side no matter the number of days difference.  I have tried just about everything my mind can think of. This is what I have done so far:  Cre

Hi , I have requirement where I want to trigger more than one instance of workflow when item is added and when attachments are getting modified. Is it possible to trigger diff instances of workflow if item added wf not completed and meanwhile someone updated attachments.

Hello! I have built a simple responsive form. I have created some mandatory fields in the list itself, or on the rule using the rules, and the question applies to both. I know I can disable the Save button unless all the mandatory fields are filled. Ideally, I would like to have a message appearing, after clicking on the Save button to indicate if some mandatory fields are missing, and ideally which ones. Because the Save button does not work, and the user has no idea why. Does somebody know how to achieve that? Thank you!

I have a list called Recommendations with a Review Number (single line of text) column that gets populated from a Nintex form with a lookup to another list called Reviews that also has a Review Number single line of text column whose Review Numbers are only represented once although they can be represented multiple times in the Recommendations list. In the Recommendation list, there is a Status (Choice) column. I want to create a site workflow that will check for the following conditions in the Status column of the Recommendations list and if it meets a condition for all Status columns for a particular Review Number in the Recommendations list, it will update the Status column in the Reviews list with the designated new status. If Status is not equal to Closed AND is not equal to Future for a particular review number in the Recommendations list, no update will be made. If Status IS equal to Future for all Status fields for a particular review number, I want to update the Reviews List s

Dear all,Due do management decision, a workflow that I wrote needs to be modified as follow :in a list (a) from a nintex forms, I launch a nintex workflow which generate a approve/reject task; in the task form, the user is choosing one2many items (apple, bread, fruit juice) from another list (b); whether the task is approved or rejected is not really important, but the choice(s) of the user within the task (one2many of the list b) must be sent back to the original list (a).For example :from the list (a), I create a new request "which product would you be happy to order today ?" which contain my phone number and a comment column; the workflow generates a task to the recipient allowing him/her to : put a comment choose one2many products from a list (this works pretty fine) the workflow must then in the (a) list item : update the username + comment (which is fully fine); update also the lookup column related to the one2many choosen products What I could not achieve is to refill this la
