So I have a form with a people picker field that is an "assigned to" field. I need to know how many are assigned to a task. I used a calculated field with the following fx:count(Assigned To)Â It gives the right answer if I have two or more assigned; however, It will return 18 when I have only one entry.Any Ideas?
It’s not letting to function the Nintex Flows in the SharePoint Environment. ERROR MESSAGE :Error in task. Unauthorized attempt to update workflow task by. The response has not been recorded. Business Impact : High
I have two SharePoint Online lists, each has a simple Nintex form. I have created 2 pages to embed the forms for a smoother UX. However, one form was able to embed just fine and the second is giving me an error. So I know that I *can* do it, but in this case it's not working. Below is the error message that i'm getting. I can't seem to find the answer, HELP! The property or field 'EffectiveBasePermissions' has not been initialized. It has not been requested or the request has not been executed. It may need to be explicitly requested.If the problem persists, contact your support team with the following information:Correlation ID: 47ae7205-e728-4178-8f4b-9c4990e0efafTenant ID: 265c2dcd-2a6e-43aa-b2e8-26421a8c8526Time (UTC): 2020-11-13 20:52:18  
I need to write to the SQL database, ideally using the button control, this task is not as easy as I had first thought. I have built a few SQL controls that read the database , this works fineI first tried to link the button with the SQL control, only to. find that I need Javascript. Im thinking now that I need to have a workflow and link this with the button. I'm looking for a simple / secure way to write to the SQL database. My form has1. a single line textbox contol, that provides the partial name (input) for my SQL query2. I use the input value above to build my SQL control query to return some values from the databaseand then make a selection from the items displayed (dropdown box).3. I want to use the returned value from above in a SQL write using a "button type control" to execute the database write. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi all,I'm trying to publish my workflow but I'm getting the error below:  We have Nintex Forms and Workflows 2013 on Sharepoint 2013 On Premises. Any ideas?
I have Nintex forms for SharePoint on-premise. My drop down boxes are populated by the SharePoint lists. I want the first line of the drop down list to be empty. However, the first entry in the list settings turns out to be the first entry in the list. Even when I add a blank line to the list in settings, the Nintex forms drop down list ignores the blank in settings and shows the first line that has text. I want the drop down list to show the blank.Â
Hi all,I have a content type form where I like to automatically extract the department code from Active directory and to assign it to the "Department code" which is a managed metadata field in SharePoint term store listing the department codes. I managed to use a calculated field to extract the dept code from AD but how do I assign it to the Department code field within the Nintex form?Â
I think this might be a simple task and maybe over thinking it. Please review.I am trying to take a SharePoint "Project Intake list: workflow & copy it to a task list once it is approved & triggered with an active checkbox. I want to some of the intake fields to the "Project Status" Task List Both lists are in the same site. Questions:Is it better to do a site workflow or do another workflow under the "Project Status" task list Content Type: Item doesn't have tasks for create item. Should I do a query instead & collection variables?I am still a newbie so I greatly appreciate any advice or suggestions. Thank you!!Â
Hi,We recently implemented Nintex Forms and Workflow into our SharePoint 2019 on premise system. We played around for a bit and then wanted to set up our first proper Form.The Form consists of quite a few fields which are connected to List columns.The Form also includes separate views for creating a new element, editing and viewing. The problem is that when we try to create a new Element the submit button does nothing.Trying to save using the Submit button in the ribbon on the top of the screen doesn't work either. Everything else works great and as expected. My guess is that the size of the Form is the Problem.We tried to create a new small form. This form works and it can be saved.After adding a lot of fields it sops working.Then after deleting all those fields it works again. Is there a certain limit to how much data a Form can hold?Are there Ways to increase this limit? Thanks in advance for every bit of help 🙂
"Failed to start workflow. Unable to access availability database because the database replica is not in the PRIMARY or SECONDARY role. Connections to an availability database is permitted only when the database replica is in " . Can you please help me why this error is formedÂ
Hello,In SharePont 2013 using Nintex Workflow. I created a message board for users to submit a message. Since SharePoint can only hold about 5000 records I think, I want to convert the data that is submitted by using XML. The problem I run into is that once I create a document using the XML data, I can't open the XML document within SharePoint (Gives me a error message). If I download the document an open it up via NotePad++, I get a bunch of alien characters. Does anybody have any experience with this. I'm new to XML and I was told XML was the best way to capture data. I attached some screenshots of what I'm trying to do. One thing I will note is that I'm able to spit out the information within a workflow email. Just want to somehow spit that information into a document.
I'm not able to lookup user profile Department using both formula below in Nintex Responsive form in Sharepoint 2013. Last time, i was able to use the formula below without any problem. Is it because of the compatibility issue? Option 1: userProfileLookup (Submitter, "Department") Option 2: userProfileLookup (Current User, "Department")
I have a list lookup control dropdown at the top of my form with its ID connected to a single line text site column and the list connected to a sharepoint list. Later in the form, I have a calculated value control where I want to display the selected dropdown value from the lookup control at the top of the form. In the calculated value control I have the formula set as the named control of the list lookup column. The issue I am running into is that the calculated value field is displaying the selected drop-down but with "1;#" or "2;#" in front of it. Is there a way to get rid of that? I am having a similar problem with people or group fields that I want to be displayed later in the form through a calculated value control
Greetings: I have an application in which one or more documents are submitted to a document library by email, for which a workflow parses the email subject line for a common property called the TicketNumber. All of the documents submitted in that email therefore have the same ticket number. but no other properties are defined except the usual ones like the document name and creation date, etc. None of the custom fields are defined yet, but I have a form for just that purpose. When I open a form on one of the documents I need to also refer to the other documents that came in under the same TicketNumber. That's easy enough using a List Lookup filtered by a form control connected to that property, but what I am struggling with is a way to exclude from that list the document whose form I have just opened. In other words, If I have three documents, A, B, and C, all with TicketNumber 123456, and I open the form for document A, I want my lookup to show only documents B and C. Using a List
I'm getting this error on a workflow when it hits the " Convert document" action. Error converting document. The service application required to complete this request is not currently available. Try this operation again later. If the problem persists, contact your administrator. Same workflow is working fine on other environments. The template that the action is pulling from is on the site and the user have access to it. The word automation service and proxy are provisioned and running. The Word automation is on the application proxies list of the web application. We have tried this:  - added our service account and farm account to the permissions and administration areas with full control on the service app- Ran GrantAccessToProcessIdentity on the portal web app for both farm and service accounts- ensured that both the windows account and claims identity for both of those accounts have Full Control on the web application policy- performing debugging by powershell to simplify the proce
Need some assistance. I have two fields - 'Completed' (Yes/No) and 'Date Completed' (Date and Time).I need to add a rule if the 'Completed' field is marked Yes that the 'Date Completed' field would be required to be entered by the user. The date would not be able to be less than today. Below is what I wrote and the form is not returning any error if I mark the 'Completed' field and do not enter a date or enter a date in the past. When:If(Completed, TRUE, ""), Date Completed="",>=[Today]Then:Invalidate and produce the Validation Message After the rule is written: I do need to have the ability to for a manager or approver to backdate the Date Completed.
We have these two SharePoint lists, "List 1" contains a comma-separated "list" of tags, say "tag 1, tag 2, tag 3" etc. In the Nintex Form for "List 2", we have a list lookup which we want to populate with items from "List 1" based on whether the tag column from "List 1" contains a certain tag.   This cannot be done out of the box using Nintex Forms as the List Lookup filter seems to only work in a "Equals" sense. I'm happy to use JavaScript for this but any pointers with how to start this off would be greatly appreciated, as my JS is not perfect. Thanks
I recently inherited a form where their panel rules are not working. I am not a rule expert and was hoping for some assistance.  I need the panel to show whether the form is "In Process" or it is "Approved".  The current rule is:not({ItemProperty:Approved}==True) || not({ItemProperty:CompApproval}="In Process") If I separate the two into different panels the rule works but when I have them together it doesnt work.  Not sure why the OR statement is not registering. Any help would be much appreciated.Â

Is Empty DOESN'T Work.  Any Ideas?
Hi, We have an approval workflow in a document library. For some reason when the workflow ran for a document today, the outcome of a flexi-task was automatically marked as 'not required', prompting a Not Required Notification right after the initial Task Notification.  Below is the detailed history of the workflow: When you go through the workflow status page and look at the task, the outcome is displayed as 'pending': The workflow is still in progress and the task assignee can still access the task through the workflow status page.  This is potentially misleading to approvers as they may think the task no longer require their action, when in fact no one has actioned the task yet. Thanks,JoshÂ
