Hi there, We currently have a problem with one of our lists. There are two workflows configured on this list:  But as soon as I want to start a workflow, I receive the following overview:  As you can see, there are more workflow displayed. We assume that this is due to the fact, that we have initially copied this list (as we now observe with workflows :o).How can we get rid of them, it seems that this is confusing the complete workflow system here?! Cheersmai-kel
Can anyone suggest if there's way to delete existing duplicate item -keeping the recently created item ?Example List a ITEM 1 - Created 28-04-2021 00:00ITEM 1 - Created 28-04-2021 00:10.  The list should delete item create at 00:00 hoursÂ
So far, no luck in figuring this one out. I have 2 date fields in my form. In the 1st field (Date), a user enters a date. The 2nd field (Recertify Date) then populates with the entered date plus 365 days. My issue is...I have a Nintex Workflow that would look at that Recertify Date and send out a notification 45 days before the date as a reminder. Since that Recertify Date field is a Calculated Value field, I can't find it to use within the workflow. Is there a way to get the value of that Calculated Value field into an actual field that the workflow could then use?
Hi EveryoneI have a workflow that is creating a DocGen which I would like to be saved to the list item. The workflow creates the document but fails at the point when it should attach to the item.This is the message I get. FileName being the name of the DocGen file.Document Generation error: Processing error. Failed to save output {FileName} If I have no attachment on the item it will attach without issue.If the item has an attachment already it fails. (An attachment that is different from the DocGen) Has anyone experienced this issue before?

Hello, In a workflow XML query, I'd like to test a value (like {ItemProperty:...}), from an XML source (List Form) inside my XSLT, but there's an error, here is my code :<tr><td>John Doe</td> <xsl:if test="{ItemProperty:name} = 'John'"> <td>{ItemProperty:name}</td> </xsl:if> <xsl:if test="{ItemProperty:surname} != 'Doe'"> <td style="background-color:yellow;">{ItemProperty:surname}</td> </xsl:if> </tr>   Nintex Workflow version : Nintex Workflow 2013 - Version: 3.1.3.0 - English Best regards.

I have a dropdown with a Yes/No Value. If Yes is chosen a panel gets unhidden where there are two single line of text columns. I need the form not to be able to be submitted until those two columns have text in them. For some reason I can't seem to get the rules correct. This is what I have on both columns. Thanks as always for your help not(contains(Column Name, "Yes")) && isNullOrEmpty({Self})
scene:2 lists.List 1 is a document library.List 2 is a list where users can choose to be alerted if one or more documents are changed in List 1.List 2 has a lookup field, pulling the names of the List 1s documents. The user can select multiple documents. If a document in List 1 is changed, and a user has it selected, the user should get a mail / alert / notification about the change.in a workflow, attached to List 1, I make a Query.It pulls List 2, only if the user selection is not empty.it reads 2 fields: "The-Choices" which is stored in a collection variable: "Str-Choices".and "The User" which is stored in a collection variable: "Str-Users" and from here my trouble starts.I have tried to split the Choices and users to form two variable "lists" containing each of the choices and users, as "The-Choices" in the Query contains, example: doc1.docx; picturename.jpg;calculation.xlsx ( separated by ; )when I make a regular expression for "The-Choices":pattern: ; ( a semicolon with no other
I'm working on a form and there are several list columns that are set to required, however I'm able to submit a completely blank form. I've tried deleting the fields and creating new ones that are also required, but I'm still not getting any error messages and the form is not stopping submissions. I've done the exact same process on other forms without any issues. Does anybody have any ideas? Thank you! Â
I know this must be a simple problem but I can't find it exactly on this forum or internet. I have a number of panels that are hidden when a choice column equals a number. Example below not(contains(ApproverStage, "10"))What I'm trying to do is set it so that if Approver Stage equals 10 OR it equals 11 that panel gets hidden. I've tried a number of ways using AND runtime function but I can't seem to get it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance
Hello Team, We have 2 WFE servers, and the Nintex Workflow scheduler timer job is running every 5 minutes on any one of these servers. The problem is this job is sometimes stuck at 0% for several hours. By default it should complete with in a minute. Sometimes I'm restarting the Timer Job, and clearing the cache to resolve this issue. But a few times unable to fix the issue with these steps. Due to this issue my site workflow schedules arr not working.Please help me in resolving this issue permanently. Thanks,Soni
Hello, Does anyone know how to trigger a SSRS report (which is connected to a SharePoint List using a Nintex workflow? More explanation:I have a list and I want to "Automatically" convert each item of this list after approval to a "PDF" file and the send it to another SharePoint library or email it to somebody. To solve this problem, I realized the Nintex SharePoint cannot automatically create a PDF! So, I created a SSRS report using the same SharePoint list. Now I want to trigger the SSRS report builder as soon as an item in SharePoint list is approved.  I know I can subscribe in SSRS report updates. But, it does not help me with my issue.  Any idea is appreciated.Â
Hi guys. I'm very new to Nintex Workflow and am just trying to establish whether what I want to do is feasible. At work we use sharepoint to archive a variety of documents for different customers (organised into folders by licence number). Customers/licence numbers are then nested under different geographical regions. We frequently need to batch upload thousands of PDFs of letters etc. sent to different customers/licence numbers, filling metadata fields differently for each customer. I'd like to automate this very time consuming and tedious process. The organisation doesn't have Nintex external platform, which I believe is required to upload files directly from a local machine. So my thinking was to create a dropbox in the sharepoint library where we could upload the PDFs in bulk. Each named with an ID associated with its unique metadata contained in a table (I believe it would need to be XML?). I then want to use Nintex to fetch and set metadata field values using that ID for each fil
Hi Nintex community! We have a workflow that we'd like to schedule that will start an SSRS report. Is this possible?Which controls in the workflow will best be used for this functionality? So far, I have tried the "Call web service" control with no success. I couldn't find any 'clear' examples on how to acheive this, so please bare with me if this has been answered already.  Thank you!
I have a List and a DocLib. For the list, I have a workflow that creates a document in the DocLib. The DocLib is configured with several content types. Here´s the problem: In the "Create Item" action in the list workflow, if I select any other content type (in the DocLib) than the first one I created, the documents are always created with the content type I added first. So if ContentType1 is the first content type and I select ContentType2 in the "Create Item" action, the document is always created with ContentType1. It does not matter if I changed which content type is the default one. Any ideas?
Hi all I have a drop down that has multiple options on, however I want another control to unhide if the selection is anything except N/A, however when in preview it just doesn't work and appears as normal regardless. not(equals(PolicyType, "N/A")) Any ideas? Last hurdle to getting my form good to go after lots of research 🙂
I have a condition to check with previous value of the list item field to current value of the list item field for o365, as we have same functionality with SharePoint On Premise in the workflow settings where we can execute workflow based on the condition. Is there any possible ways to do same.
Hi all, Hoping someone can help as I am clearly getting my rule wrong. I have a control that I want to unhide if either part of a quality check fails (or both), after much research i came up with an or cluster: or(not(contains(ProcessScore, "Fail")),not(contains(ServiceScore, "Fail"))) Unfortunately this only unhides the control when both fields fail, which is fine but I also need it to appear if one is set to Pass and the other Fail. Any ideas? Many tha Â
If we create a Nintex Forms on a list, then we do not get the Ribbon Button "Workflow history" on the DisplayForm.aspx. On the default SharePoint Form DispForm.aspx the workflow history button is present. Are there any configuration we forget?Â

I am trying to add an event receiver on the workflow task - list Item Added event, to get the Task ID and update it on another SharePoint List. This is because once I add an Assign Flexi Task action on the Nintex workflow, there is no way to get the created task ID in the workflow, unless someone actions on the task. However, the Event Receiver on the Workflow Task list Item Added event does not fire!? Can someone help me in solving this? or any alternative solution please.
We are on SharePoint 2013 & Workflow version 3.4.0.0. I'm attempting to update to Workflow 3.6.1.0. I stopped the Nintex Workflow Start service and started the installer. It took several hours and there was an error, "Job(s) was/were never created for solution Nintex Common Components (NintexCommon.wsp) upgrade, waited for 3600 seconds". The Nintex Workflow Licensing page says I am still on version 3.4.0.0. There are no errors on the Solution Management page. So I think the install didn't do anything. I read in the form here that the installer would run faster if you clear the SharePoint Config Cache first. I did that and ran installer again. It was not faster; I got the same error and the Licensing page still says 3.4.0.0. What should I do? Â
I want to set the item permissions for submitted requests based on the site that submitted the request. Each site has a SharePoint group with a name formatted "[site code] Members" where [site code] is the 3 character site code for each site and is an item property. I created a workflow which sets a text variable to "[Site Code] Members", then sets item permission using that variable as the user. When I run the workflow it says that the user is not found, even though it reads exactly right. Is it possible to achieve this goal? For a more specific example, I type "TUA Members" into the "Users" field in my workflow and it resolves the group name immediately. When I leave it as the variable and run the workflow, the workflow output is "No user has been found with specified username "TUA Members". Is there a way to dynamically define a SharePoint group name like this?
