Nintex Forms 2013 - Hiding variables depending on Dropdown selected

I have a form tied to a SharePoint list that I would like to add a rule to or a condition. If Rate Type Dropdown = Incurred, I want to only show the Rate Element Impacted of Indirect - Labor. If Rate Type Dropdown = Forward Pricing, show all checkboxes. Can anyone help me? Should I be creating a rule? Or something else? Thanks!

Copy and rename only specific attachments from a repeating section

Hi Folks,I have a form that has attachments in both a repeating section and in the regular body of the form. In the repeating section, I first need to make sure that the attachment has the correct naming convention and if not, rename the attachment based on data that is partly in the repeating section and partly elsewhere in the form. After that is complete, I need to copy the attachments in the repeating section into another library. With the use of the "Copy to SharePoint" action, my workflow will dump all of the attachments in the form into the specified library. I am assuming that this will need to happen in a workflow after the form is submitted.First, how can I rename just files in the repeating section?Then, how can I ensure that I only copy the files in the repeating section? Thanks and Regards,Patrick

Query list: Multiple return columns = multiple collections?

I am querying a list for Name, Title, Phone with a filter so that the expected result is say 5 items (with the goal of building a contact list string to insert into a notification). The UI apparently wants me to store the results into a collection of Names, a collection of Titles, and a collection of Phones -- 3 collections total. Is there a way to get the results from a list query into a single result set? Or is there just no Nintex construct that matches a "result set" or hashtable type of data structure? Without it I guess I need to do a ForEach with a couple Pops (collection operation) inside of it. Or is there a best practice here I'm missing that would serve me better? Thanks.

Nintex forms - List View Control with document library subfolder view

I am trying to show files with in a folder in the List view control on the form. I am getting "There are no items to show in this view of the "Documents" document library."Here is the valid CAML query that I ran in SmartCAML which gives me 2 results. However when I use the same query in list view control, I am getting "There are no items to show in this view of the "Documents" document library." Has any one faced this issue or know how to resolve it?

Calculate the last day of the next month

Trying to calculate the last day of the next month.  I have tried using the excel formula =EOMONTH(Date,1). A cast formula and a SQL formula.  (I can't figure out the connection string and may not have access on the Excute SQL)  easiest would be a calculated column, but could do it in a workflow or a calculated variable on the form.  Is EOM a function in nintex and I am just missing it, or has anyone done this.What I am running into is a situation where the due date is EOM but when I use Calculate date and add 1 month march is coming up 3/28/2020 instead of 3/31/2020. Thank you for any help you can provide.

Date calculation for the days of last month

I am trying to create a site workflow that runs at the beginning of each month that looks at a list and counts the entries for the previous month. I created the logic to figure out the numbers for the month number of the last month, the year of last month (January would be year - 1) and the end day of last month depending on the month. My goal was to use these numbers to create a start date (mm/01/yyy) and end date (mm/dd/yyyy) but I can't seem to figure out how to create a date from those numbers. Setting them as a variable date doesn't work, calculate date doesn't work because you would have to have 0/00/0000 which it sees as blank.  If I run it on the first of each month I could get the begin date by the current date - one month and the end date by subtracting one day from the beginning of the month. But, I want to be able to run this say on the 2nd or 3rd of the month manually if need be also, which wouldn't work. Anyone able to suggest the best way to go about this?

JavaScript Problem With Remove Status function

Hi,like to add status messages to an Nintex form. The adding is working fine, but if I try to removethe status message after some time withsetTimeout(function() {SP.UI.Status.removeStatus(statusId);}, 3000);the script returns an call stack error. On the other hand SP.UI.Status.removeAllStatus(true); in the same Timeout function is working well but it's not requested to remove all status messages at the same time. If I use this at an SharePoint site without Nintex, there's no problem, so the error is not inside the code.Is there any way to implemnt this to an Nintex form, too or any other way to set status messages ?Thanks Stefan

Calculated field - runtime Add concatenates two numbers instead of add numeric value

Calculated field - runtime Add concatenates two numbers instead of add numeric value when one value comes from choice (dropdown) field. Calculated field formula (dropdown value =10) + 5 returns 105 instead of 15. Mul, Div, and Sub functions calculate correctly. I am running latest 2019 Nintex Forms on premise.

How to build workflow that creates multiple events on a calendar based out of multiple choice box

Hi everybody, Every month at work, I need to create a calendar where I have to distribute a daily sentry task to multiple divisions. Basically I built a form that look like this to do thatBasically here's  what I need and what I've done: Needs:A form that the person in charge (SSE) would use to populate a calendar with the different Troupe's shifts so they can go back in the event after to put a name in it. I've created a Calendar named Salle de Garde QGET I created a form so he could assign which dates are assigned to whom Now here comes the fun part, I need a workflow that would automatically create the shifts in the calendar based out of this form. I figured that I would need those variables A collection variable for each troupe's dates: Dates Tp A Dates Tp B Dates Tp C Dates Tp Soutien The time for the beginning and the end of the shift will always have the same Hours (0900 to 0900 the nex day) so: Start Time End Time The month that we are planing

Nintex Live Form (Shorten url has changed)

I have a Nintex Live form with a Shorten URL that I have been using for weeks. I've made a few changes so far with no issues Saving and Publishing it. Yesterday I made some more updates and when I was about to Publish it, noticed the whole URL has changed. It used to start with a "bit.ly" and now starts with a "ntx.lv." The second part of the link is totally different as well. Now I'm nervous to Publish these changes in fear the link all users have will stop working. Anyone experience this or have any suggestions?

Task column of type choice (multiselection-checkboxes) not retrieving choices in task form

Hello, A Site column 'Software' of type choice (multi-selection - checkboxes) has been created, which is used in a list content type and a task content type.I am trying to design the task form of a Request Data task action, but when I try to use the task column 'Software', I get the below notification that the Choices property is required- it does not retrieve the choices, whereas the list column fetches the choices. Although it is the same column, it seems that Nintex shows a different treatment between list and task columns. How could I retrieve the task column choices? Thank you in advance

List Lookup V1 - source view

Hi there, I have a number of list lookup v1 (v1 is legacy and gets populated synchronously on form load) controls on my form, each with a different source view to display different items. I show and hide the list lookup controls depeing on the selection of another lookup list. Does anyone know if its possible to dynamically update the source view in a lookup list (using say JavaScript) or some other mechanism as per below, so that I could just use one list lookup control and simply change the value of Source view depending on the selection in a separate lookup list?  Thanks, Scott.
