Hi AllI have many Site collection reusable workflow templates that I am using for an application. Each of the workflows needs to start on a content type on modify, but conditionally.I add the conditional start to the Site collection reusable workflow template but it is running on the content types on all updates, not just the ones I want it to. this is really halting progress for delivery of an application and I am pulling my hair out.has anyone come across this before?
I am trying to assign a formula to a textbox so that it populates with the user's name when the checkbox is toggled and clears the box and updates the textbox with the new user when the checkbox is toggled by another user.  It works to a point but once the form is saved and the boolean is saved to the connected sharepoint list, the checkbox will not update. This is the rule I am using for the checkbox: blnStartDate=="Yes"*blnStartDate is the column the boolean is saved to in Sharepoint Formula attached to the text box:If(EmailAnticipatedStartDate=="No", "", If(EmailAnticipatedStartDate&&isNullOrEmpty(tsUpdate Anticipated Start By), Current User (Display Name), tsUpdate Anticipated Start By)) *If the checkbox equals "No" then display nothing.Â
What are the available Nintex connectors to connect SharePoint Nintex workflow with SAP ERP Data?. During the demonstration of the Nintex product they have shown us the connectivity between SAP ERP with Nintex but now we are not able to find any connector for matching for ERP. Â I did search bit in the Internet, It seems we are required to purchases additional licenses for Theobald ERP Connect Solution. Could you clarify what are the options we have now?
I'm working on a data import site workflow where one of the fields I have to populate is a multi-value choice list of document authors. I've got all of the other fields loading correctly, so I ended up just putting the author list into a single line of text column in the table. Now I'm circling back to try and load the Authors. Here's what I have:1. Query the list to get the record IDs that need the AuthorList updated2. For Each to loop through each record and query the list for the semi-colon separated list of names from the AuthorList column3. Use a regular expression to load the author names into a collection.4. For Each to loop through the collection of author names (storing author name in sltAuthor variable)5. Query list to the Employee table where the Title = sltAuthor and get the ID field (stored in sltAuthorID)6. Log to history list sltAuthor (sltAuthorID)Â I have tried several ways to do this, but no matter what I do, the first one (index 0) works great. It returns the Author I

I am trying to figure out the best way to get the link to the Edit form of an item that is in a SharePoint Online custom list item to open it with nintex workflow notification email I have tried web/site/Lists/listname/EditForm.aspx?ID=ID or ID=[ID] but either works the form kee
I am working on a complicated process that requires many different types of approvals and data requests. All these tasks are created in a task list. I would like to supply a value (Job Number) to the task list so we can create grouping views on the tasks in the task list so managers can monitor who has completed their tasks and who hasn't. I have searched for instructions on how to supply this value to a task. I have created an extra field in the task Content Type and thus the task list, but I can't find a way to populate that field from the list workflow.   Has anyone done something like this before. We are still using Nintex 2013 for a 2013 on-prem farm but this will be migrated to 2019 soon.
New user here searching for some guidance. I have a form for requesting new part numbers. In the repeating section of the form, is selections from lists for primary category, secondary category, and tertiary category (3-tiered category) - workflow is based on this to determine if product testing is required. The description and current part number fields (if exists) and fields for print number, unit of measure etc.My first issue - In the workflow - when the form is saved, I notify our documentation team that there is a new request. I followed that with a wait for item update - so that when documentation adds the part number, the workfflow would then continue. Except that because the fields are in a repeating panel, they are no longer connected to my original list which the form is based on. I'm not sure the best practive or course of action to develop this form - There may be examples on here already, and I apologize for that - but when I don't know what I don't know - I don't eve

I am not sure how to eve
Hi I hope someone can help me figure out how to create a form that is initiated from a document that knows the document's columns. I want the user to click a 'Feedback' button from the action menu (three dots next to document) to launch a form. The form should then autofill the document name it was initiated from and have the other document columns filled in, such as "process owner". Upon clicking 'Save', an email is generated to the process owner. That's it. A form that is initiated from a document that knows the document's columns. Really appreciate if someone from Nintex could advise if this is possible and how I could go about implementing this using Nintex Forms and Workflow for SharePoint 2013 Enterprise (on-prem). Many thanksÂ
I have a SharePoint list and I am performing Nintex action to collect all items with a Start date that falls between certain date range and I am sending that in email to respective users. I would also like to gather all those items (stored in collection variable) and send it as EXCEL attachment via email. Please guide what's the best and easy way to perform such action using Nintex workflow. Thank you!
We have SharePoint 2016 server with Nintex Forms and Workflows installed. We would like to use Nintex sign in one of the workflows. I have activated the necessary features and enabled Nintex sign powered by adobe sign on the Action settings on Central Administration of SharePoint.However, I need to send the pre-requisites to the network team, can anyone clarify below question:If we are using Nintex Sign, does the SharePoint front end server/app server must also have internet connectivity? The server currently has no access to the Internet. How exactly Nintex sign works?

Dear Team, I have to query the SharePoint group (not person or group column within the list ) and add users and grant permissions to that group through workflow. Â Regards,
I have a workflow in SharePoint 2013 that has a flexi task where two approvers must approve or reject a request. I have the results of both reject and approved outcomes in the list no problem...it's the conflicting result that I'm still struggling with. I need a column in the list to show when there's a conflict with the approval which is the "outcome achieved" option in the flexi task. I've done a lot of googling and tried to set a column to "yes/no" and then set the variable for it as "yes/no" but the results of the conflict won't show up in the list. I need the column to display if "yes, there was a conflict" (e.g. someone approved the request and someone rejected the request).  Â
Hi, I use javascript to update a value of a textfield (txtStepID) in my Nintex Form. There are several formatting rules on different controls triggered on this value. Since upgrading to nintex Form from V 2.4.0.0 to 2.5.0.0 the rule is not recognized anymore. I see the value changes due to the step but the rule just don't fire. If I change the field value manually in the textbox the rule is working perfectly. Here is the javascript I use to update my textbox value:function goNext() {   var txtStep = NWF$("#" + txtStepID);   var stepNumber = txtStep.val();   stepNumber++;   goStep(stepNumber);}function goPrev() {   var txtStep = NWF$("#" + txtStepID);   var stepNumber = txtStep.val();   stepNumber--;   goStep(stepNumber);}function goStep(stepNumber) {   var txtStep = NWF$("#" + txtStepID);   txtStep.val(stepNumber);   txtStep.trigger("change");}
I'm new to forms but hoping someone will be able to give me a pointer on how to achieve this.SP16 on prem, no farm access.List A is a list of job vacancies.List B is a secondary secured list to track applications (List A is open and can't contain the more sensitive application details).Items in List A expire after two weeks and List B has a lookup column to only show the active vacancies in List A.There is a button on the page holding the webpart, this link is to the new form on list B that shows the active vacancies in a dropdown. What I'd like to do is have a button on the List A view form that links to a new item form in List B with the current item preselected in an input.So rather than a user having to view the List A item, close it, click the apply button, then find the item to select to apply for; they can hit an "Apply for this item" button and go to a form with the ID already there.Hope that was clear 🙂
Users recently noticed that the status of previously completed workflows disappeared. This drastically effects their reporting on list items. All the workflow history on the items are there but the workflow status is not.  So for example if the status is "In Progress", Cancelled" or "Completed" that information is now gone. Any ideas as to why this would happen? Where to look or anything.Â
Hello all, I've created a workflow that copies the items list attachments with a reference ID to an Attachments Library using a Call web service - GetAttachmentsCollection Web method - This works fine (example below)   The issue is, in the same workflow I try to delete the List Attachments after copying them somewhere else, as I don't need them in two different spots. To do this I use the Call web service - DeleteAttachments Web method.  Every time I run the DeleteAttachments web method I get a error.If I click "Execute" I get the error error "The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized."(Example Below)If I click "Test connection" I get the error error "Request failed with status: Unauthorized."(Example Below)  If I run the workflow I get a workflow error with the following comments in the workflow status -  If anyone has any idea or suggestion why I'm receiving this error on the DeleteAttachments method but not the GetAttachmentsCollection method I'm all ears. If you need

I should include the function currentRowNumber in the formula. But i dont know how. This is, what i already have:I can add date to repeating table. In the first colummn is a calculated value of days, second colummn is the number of row. Now, i need to add a Validation Rule.

Also i don`t known if I have to add the rule to the repeating table or to date/time form control.Can somebody help me please?ThanksDJ
I have a multi select field on a Nintex form, and when a user selects a given option, I want to populate a different field with a new option. Ex: user selects Option1 in multiselect field, then I want new field to populate with Bucket1. If selects Option2, then Bucket2 would populate in new field.  I've read about control settings and rules, but I need a very very basic step-by-step of how to get this to work (screenshots also v helpful!). Any help is greatly appreciated!
