Hi All, I have 2 lists of choice menu on my form namely List A and List B and would like to auto populate of Form B choice based on choice made on Form A but maintain the flexibility on choices. Here is the example :-List A choice : Apple, Orange, PearList B choice : Apple, Orange, Pear Scenario 1 - If user choose "Apple" in list A, and list B will automatically look up and populate "Apple" as selected choice.Scenario 2 - If user choose "Apple" in list A, and list B will automatically look up and populate "Apple" as selected choice. But user to manually change the list B selection to "Orange" instead while list A maintain as "Apple". So most of the time List A and List B should show the identical values but occasionally user can change their choice in list B manually. I hope this clarify and appreciate any feedback or assistance received.

Hello everyone,I have a Nintex workflow that changes the title column existing text to "false" once the workflow is complete. Here's a summary what I've got, although half the time I'm just clicking buttons to see what it does, to disclaim my level of expertise:1. Main Nintex Form has a column with 3 choices as a task outcome: N/A, WIP, 100%2. The Nintex workflow has a flexi task with 2 branches: N/A (ends the WF), and WIP/100% (stays open for editing until 100% completion is reached). I'm using flexi task because it's the only option that allowed me to create a Nintex Form in the Task Content Type.3. In the Nintex form for this flexi task I've added "Save" button for WIP which disables the "Submit" button. Once the task is completed, I've added a rule that enables the "Submit" button (while it disables "Save"). This is the only option I could figure out to keep the task open without committing to a final outcome. I've found other alternatives which may (or may not) require knowle
Scenario: Use Nintex workflow as a front end for a Document Library... for Compliance Documents. There are various meta-data we want to associate to compliance documents as well as differing workflows based on the selection of metadata... at the time a form is submitted. We want to use a workflow for adding documents to SharePoint. For example, we want a user choose a dropdown option and a choice for document type may be: "How To/SOP (Standard Operating Procedure)". If this choice is selected, more options/metadata may be required and it could change the approval workflow. Every example for Nintex involves lists. Lists are NOT a document library. Multiple posts in this forum have indicated this can be done and reference solutions, but none of the links work. I can't find a single example of using Nintex to control the workflows related to documents. NOTE: Due to compliance and the nature of our business, an online/cloud option is not viable. We cannot use Power Automate (requires t
My nintex form is linked to a sharepoint list. When, the check box is toggled for the first time, it populates the associated ts fields with the user and the current date. Upon completion, the associated bln field should change from false to true. The issue is that when the check box is toggled for a second, third, etc. time, it should overwrite the associated ts fields (one for date and one for name. The associated bln field should remain true.
Hello, I am new to nintex forms working in the responsive layout within Sharepoint. I have a form where users are able to select a date for an extra week of vacation if eligible. When they select a date, the form must check if the user has a pending request for the leave period. If there is a request for the selected period the form should stop them, but if the period is available it should tell the user the date selected is available and allow them to proceed with submitting the form. Pictured below is the eligibility table built within the form to show the user their availability. In this example the 15th year anniversary period is not used so the form should allow me to enter any date between 9/2/20212-9/1/2017 (If the period wasn't in the past that is), but reject any other date selection from the ranges shown as it's not available. I realize this is a long winded explanation and I can provide additional context/information as needed... but how would I go about starting somethi
Hi there, I'm trying to execute an SQL SELECT statement with the current user credentials. Because of security reasons I need to overmit the SQL statement so every user opening the SharePoint Form is getting his/her current history from the database. At the moment I just can set a single SQL- or Windows user in the secure store on the central administration of the SharePoint.Is there another way to manage it to get the current history from the current logged in user from the database? Thanks a lot,Steffen
I'm working on an activity tracker, users will select the Team (choice of three; AA, BB, CC) and the Type (choice of two; AdHoc or Regular) and i need to use those two values to filter a lookup list of tasks.

I have a nintex form based on a list in SharePoint 2016. This is what I want to accomplish, I have a dropdown list (choice control). I have a label for the Title. I want the Title to change based on what the user selects from the drop down. It is easy to do this using Workflow. But I want to do this dynamically within the form. As soon as the user makes a selection from the dropdown list, the Title should change. How do I accomplish this? Thanks Mayank
I created a Nintex form in SharePoint 2016. In the form I have many controls including a drop down list control, which is tied to a column in the SharePoint list. I know that we can fire a workflow to perform some logic when the user clicks on the SAVE button. That is when the item gets created. But I want the workflow to perform the logic before the user clicks on the save button. I want a date field in the form to be updated based on the selection the user made on the dropdown list. That is when I want to workflow to fire (behind the scene) and change the value in the date field. How do I accomplish this. I prefer using workflows to perform the logic. Thanks so much. Mayank
Hello, Does anyone know of a way for a Nintex workflow to loop through a document library and print all documents that meet a certain criteria. For example, print all documents where the Created equals Today. (No, we don't use Nintex Forms.) Thanks,

I have a comment section inside a Form (Nintex forms 2013) for the users to add comments. I made a Repeating section for the comments field, so that multiple users can submit their comments. Inside the List, Repeating section data shows up in XML, with lot of additional texts. Like Below, <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><RepeaterData><Version /><Items><Item><textbox1 type="System.String"></textbox1><txtCommentName type="System.String">Vishnu</txtCommentName><textbox2 type="System.String"></textbox2><RepeatedAction type="System.String">Hello mike test 123</RepeatedAction><textbox3 type="System.String"></textbox3><textbox4 type="System.String"></textbox4></Item></Items></RepeaterData> I created an workflow which will exclude the XMLs and get me only the required data. But with multiple comments, the formatting doesn't look ok. It looks like b
I've followed Vadims instructions to get a repeating section to show in an email. Now on the second time I've used these instructions, it's gotten weird. My repeating row sections is called SupplyOrderMy two fields in the section are called SupplyItems and SupplyTypes. The xml isn't coming out right, then saying it's blank. I've attached the workflow and output.
Hi everyone,I'm using Nintex for SharePoint 2016. I used a request review action to assign task to Hiring manager in Onboarding process. I receive an email with the assigned task. I'm not unable to open edit the task assigned to me. I get the following error message.The content of this item will be sent as an e-mail message to the person or group assigned to the item.* You are not authorized to review this item. I have tried to get rid of this message but I can't. I would really appreciate your help.
Hi all, I have a very old SharePoint list which I want to update without breaking any of the existing functionality. There are 2 existing fields: 1. A currency field (which is a choice - £/€) 2. A string of a number up to 10000000 (without commas) What I would like to do is concatenate the currency choice and insert commas in to the resulting field. So for example: Existing fields : £ and a string of number - e.g. 10000 What I want : £10,000 in a new field There is an underlying workflow so editing the fields will kick it off, which I don't want. I have managed to convert 10000 to 10,000 in a few field (using =VALUE([Request Amount])), but ideally I'd like to add in the currency at the start. Is this possible in SharePoint 2013? Thanks for you help, apologies I'm a SP newbie.

Hello,I created a workflow for authorization assignment. The Start Form contains the new and already authorized users. To avoid changes in QuickEdit in the columns I connected the control elements with variables. After the workflow the fields in the Start Form are empty. How do I get it that they are filled with the last info, like when using columns? The workflow adds the new authorized persons to the already authorized ones and should display this in the start form.Deepest thanks for your ideas

Have seen this asked before but can’t seem to find a clear answer to the question. Trying to set calculate field based on two form fields - Dept is a calculated field, result of lookup based on current user- Institution is a multi-select lookup controlWill need to lookup another list based on combination of both, and concatenate the resulting values into a calculated field. Institution Dept CostCentrehosp1 Finance A1hosp2 Ops B2hosp1 Ops A2....If both hosp1 and hosp2 selected and Dept is finance, then resulting value of calculated field is “A2, B2” Previous threads sometimes imply this can be done or can’t be done. Im using onprem 2013. Don’t mind using Javascript if necessary, preferably not but don’t mind if no choice. Can’t use a helper column as per this thread because SharePoint doesn’t allow lookups to be part of the formula for calc field.https://community.nintex.com/t5/Nintex-for-SharePoint-Forum/Nintex-Forms-set-Lookup-value-u
