I have a list in SharePoint 2016. I want users to enter some information - in drop down controls. When the user clicks on save, I want a workflow to run. Workflow shall perform some logic.

We have a client who wants to stop using a required date field. This date field is referred to in at least one workflow, which when the field was changed to no longer be required and was empty caused the workflow to error. I want to know if there are other workflows that reference this field so I can check how they might also be affected. Is there a way to see this?  Using Nintex with SharePoint 2013 On Prem
Hi All! We have a small workflow that sets permission every day for all items in a list.It was working fine so far, but now at the morning hours its running into error " An error has occurred in XYZ workflow." Around later morning/noon its running without problem. The list has around 1000 items. Any suggestion or idea how to fix it, what is the root cause might be?
Hi guys, I´m having issues with a task form and I don´t know what to do anymore.I have a list called processes. It manages giving out phones in our company. Each processes has a Date of Delivery and a receiving User Once the Date of Delivery has been set, the receiving User is prompted (via Mail / task) to confirm he received the phone. When the user accesses the task, he gets the "Sorry, this site hasn't been shared with you" messageThe user canSee the task item in the list and has permissions to edit it (contribute on the list) See the process item (read permissions on the item directly)Changing the users permissions doesn´t change anything.Only if permissions on the task are updated to read-only, the issue message says that "you need edit permissions in order to execute the task".Tasks assigned to others users can be seen. When accessing it it says "You are not authorized to respond to this task" which is expected. I tried adding new Task Lists, Workflow History lists, giving the us
Hi, Â I have create a form few months ago, so there is lot of data that are saved in the sharepoint list. Â But now, we ask me to make some changes. Â But I have got a big issue that prevents me to do them :Â When I make a change, the forms that are already saved with the first form take the changes too. Â Does someone have a solution for that the changes are only implemented on the new items ? Â Thanks, Â Thomas Â

I have also a date/time control also next to it. Normally date/time control should be blank (field is not required) but in case when users selects from a drop down list C i would like to date/time control shows current date.(I'm not using responsive form but standard one)

I have an excel spreadsheet in the XLSM formatting on my SharePoint site. However, when I attempt save the document to trigger the workflow, which includes the sending of an e-mail, an e-mail is not sent. The workflow details reflect that it was completed and shows the actions, but no e-mails.  I have a XLSX document in the same folder, and an e-mail generates with no issues. I have also added a new XLS document and the e-mail is triggered as well.  Therefore, it appears that there is something directly with the XLSM extension on the document.  Are there any limitations with being able to use XLSM as part of my Document Library to have the workflow trigger?
Hi all, Scenario: Requestor fills the form and submits. Approver rejects as the products were not available so requestor can make the changes in the selection of products and resubmits. So I want to clear the previous data(only selective fields) saved on the list item before the requestor submits the form again. Please show me insight on this as I am new to Nintex workflows and forms
I have calculated field that parses the value of a list lookup dropdown. I also have a JavaScript function that successfully resets the list lookup dropdown when a radio button changes, but as the reset does not clear the calculated value, I've tried to do the following to no avail. What am I missing? RadioButton.click(function() {   NWF$('#' + CalculatedValue).val('');}
Hello, I am making updates to an active workflow as the team finds more efficient setups/requests changes. I have been manually assigning each job to the latest workflow every time I update the workflow to accommodate the latest request. We have over 100 active jobs (and growing), so the manual changing of each job to the latest version of the workflow is a lengthy task to say the least. My question - Is there a way to update multiple/all jobs from previous workflows to the latest version of the workflow? I am a novice at SharePoint and Nintex so I am hoping I am missing something that would make these transfers to the most updated workflow easier to transfer for all active jobs. All advice is greatly appreciated. The screenshots below show the steps I am currently making to update one job at a time to the latest workflow.    I click on "Advanced", then "Workflows" in the "more ..." circled above. I then click on the checkbox next to the Workflow I then update the date to today's date
I created 3 forms for one sharepoint list. I can switch forms using url with the content type ID. I am wondering if I can specify which form to display using the list item contextual dropdown menu or in the sharepoint ribbon? Thank you. Â

I am in SharePoint 2016. Have a Nintex form that has a dropdown control and a date control. Dropdown = Request Date: TargetDate  Both Request and TargetDate are fields in a SharePoint list. I want Target Date to populate based on the entry of the dropdown. No selection means blank date.  What is the simplest way to accomplish this: Lookup, workflow, or custom JavaScript? Kindly send me some details. Thank you.  Mayank
Hi, I am very rusty at Nintex forms - the last time I did anything is maybe 2-3 years ago so please bear with me. I have a SharePoint List. In that list is a Choice Field with multiple selections.This List has been up and running for years and there is considerable data in it.There is a requirement for a new set of users to add their information to the data - for which some additional fields need to be created.   I have created a new Content type for the "new users" to ensure that their fields are not filled in by the wrong people. I have also created a new Nintex form for the new Content type. One of the fields that needs to be filled in by both content types is a Choice field allowing multiple selections. Lets say the permitted values are A,B,C,D,E (and these are set up in the SharePoint field.)My problem comes when Content Type 1 should only be allowed options A,B,CAnd Content Type 2 should only be allowed options D or E. In Nintex forms how can I control the options that are di
The workflow work is getting suspended with access denied error for the request which are created last month. However working fine if we create request and approve on same day. Dont know what is causing the issue. There are about more than 100 items which are stucked. Quick help would be really appreciated.Important thing to note:1. Task is approved and status is showing as completed. But workflow internal status is suspended2. Recently due to site workflow error team has activated "WorkFlows" feature and reactivated "Workflows can use app permissions feature" in order to resolve this error. Error Details:RequestorId: aec66f61-ce53-8997-0000-000000000000. Details: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the workflow instance. Exception details: System.ApplicationException: HTTP 403 {"error":{"code":"-2147024891, System.UnauthorizedAccessException","message":{"lang":"en-US","value":"Access denied.

Hello,Nintex Forms 2016, responsive form.For the button control. there are three "save" options of:SaveSave and SubmitSave and Continue What is the difference in behavior among these three? My assumption is that "Save and Continue" saves the record to the SP list and leaves the user on the form to continue working. However, not so obvious to me what the difference might be between "Save" and "Save and Submit". There was a post on this forum from 2015 with a link to a solution to a similar question. However, this link is now broken.2015 Post:  https://community.nintex.com/t5/Nintex-for-SharePoint-Forum/Save-vs-Save-and-Submit/m-p/49254#M40743Broken link to solution:http://vadimtabakman.com/nintex-forms-save-or-submit.aspx Thanks.
Hello,I have several workflows that I have created and two of them have a similar condition.I have a feeling it is a trigger issue. The workflows are set to start on 'Modified: Conditional' Workflow A: IF AA=AA Then send an emailWorkflow B: IF AA=AA && First Date != First Date OR Location != Location send an email The issue is, we only want the email for Workflow A to ONLY be sent for Workflow A.  At this moment, when Workflow B is kicked off, Workflow A email is sent along with email from Workflow B.
I want to create workflow progress graphical diagram same as shown by Nintex in workflow history with action blocks (green colored for completed actions and white for pending actions) but I want to hide few actions as I want to create this for normal business users. Please guide me how I can proceed with this. I want to accommodate this for new workflows and old workflows as well (there are around 120 workflows deployed in SharePoint currently).
I have created a form which then has a selection of dropdowns, based on the users dropdown choice it will then apply a numeric value to a calculated field, what I would like to do is then sum these fields. The use has answered questions 1 & 3 but has left question 2 unanswered.The total then shows, which is very odd as I would expect it to sum the total regardless of whether Question 2 has been answeredÂ
Nintex 2016 on Prem.How can I setup a way to monitor our Doc Gen consumption? It is very inconvienient to have to go to a workflow, drag a doc gen action, open to reconfigure and then at this point we'll know how much we have consumed.. We basically need a central location that updates our consumption everytime a workflow runs and uses it up. Also we'd like to receive notifications to be sent to the IT team to be notifiied when the consumption of Doc gen is about to be used up? Let's say I have 1000 doc gen that comes with my license. I want to be notified when we reach 500 and another warning when we reach 800 for example, so the IT team can make the necessary paper work ready to get an approval to purchase more Doc Gen allowance before the allowance reaches the end and suddenly all workflows start erroring because of that....Â
Version: 4.6.1.0 - InternationalLicense type: Registered (Enterprise) I've had a workflow that has been working for quite some time, I just went in and change the workflow settings to only start on manual. Now after publication the ForEach loop that cycled through a collection and performed a create item no longer works. I've rebuilt the foreach loop and even copied the create item outside the loop, the create item action works over and over, just not inside the foreach loop.  Is there a bug in this version that is preventing this? I just re-published now what was working is no longer, even went back to the previous version and restored the workflow that was working and now it doesn't.
