Hello community, I'm thinking, if there is way how You can schedule your workflow with custom conditions? In my way - I need run the workflow 2 days before end of month. What are the options? I could run every day workflow and check if today date is my needed day, but run workflow everyday to check... For me it looks like unnecessary work. So, share your knowledge and experiences!
Hi there,  I've created a sharepoint list and created a Nintex form. I wanted it so it'd email a certain team when it was submitted. I've seen the easiest way is to create a workflow with send email action. Which does what I need to, but in the body of the email I created a hyperlink to the form eg. "Click here to process request"  {Workflow Context:Current site URL}/Lists/{Workflow Context:List Name}/EditForm.aspx?ID={Current Item:ID}  Problem is when I click on the link from the email it says '404 file not found". But I can edit/view the item sitting in the sharepoint list. I'm using Sharepoint online, Nintex workflow 365, Nintex forms 365 Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you,William
I have a workflow that I'm trying to build and I am a still a basic user of SharePoint workflows. (I know enough to be dangerous.) What I am trying to do is users will input information to a form, NTAG and TAOC are built from a separate list (a lookup list). Once the user hits submit I want to the WF to lookup whether or not the NTAG is of a particular Region (East, West, Central) then copy that information to another list and update a field. The copy and update field functions work just fine. But once I introduced the RUNIF it doesn't move the item at all. The form for input: The Workflow:  The lookup list:  The RUNIF: What am I doing wrong?
Very simply trying to perform a list query from my onprem Nintex workflow to SPonline. Not sure if Nintex needs to be installed on the online instance (it's not) but we do have an enterprise license on our on prem farm. Basically when trying to do a simple list query getting the below error message. Is there a way to fix this issue. Thanks to everyone in advance for your help. "The execution returned an unexpected error. The Web application at X could not be found. Verify that you have typed the URL correctly. If the URL should be serving existing content, the system administrator may need to add a new request URL mapping to the intended application."
Hello everybody,I set up a conditional start for a workflow, to not start on Modified when the item property ‘Modified By’ doet not equal our Workflow service account.This way, we can edit items without the workflow running again. At least, that's the idea. But we find with this set up the condition is ignored and the workflow will start anyway. Is this a bug or is this condition not possible?I've been looking at release notes since we are on quite an older version of Nintex 2013 but have not found anything.
Hello,  I have created a simple responsive Nintex form for the SharePoint list. When I add this form to the SharePoint page I get the error as - "File Not Found"  But with the same list if I create a classic form it works fine. Please suggest.
HelloI have a Nintex workflow which Query List to retrieve all Active Reminders and then for each ID of the Reminders it sends an email notification.Every time i run the workflow i have an error: Coercion Failed: Unable to transform the input lookup data into the requested type.However if i run the Query List alone, it works fine (and store all variables in Collection). Knowing that the Query List filter the items having the field called "Next Reminder" to be between the 2 date ranges of this Reminder.So if "Next Reminder" is between "Reminder Date From" and "Reminder Date To" > Send Notification.If i go to the items and remove all values inside the "Next Reminder" field, the workflow works fine.Workflow attached.I appreciate your help.
Hello, I'm having some problems in my sharepoint workflows and I wonder if someone here can help me fix this. I have a workflow A in list A that starts on item creation and modified, this workflow creates a item in list B. When the users attachs something to the item in list B it runs a workflow B that updates the item in list A. This triggers workflow A again (as it should do) but it gets stuck in starting status for like 30 minutes - 1 hour (after this time the workflow runs normal with no error messages), if I update the item manually the workflow runs with no problems at all. Someone have some ideas to what may be happening when I update the item from another workflow? I saw a similiar post on this forum but it's from 2017 and it's not solved, that's why I created this new post. Thanks for the help!Â
I have a 2019 on prem workflow query against a data warehouse that appears to provide different results when the workflow runs as opposed to the 'run now' option within the workflow editor and the results when I execute the query in SQL.  Originally I was getting a DBNull error which I figured I could resolve with an IFNULL statement, but when the workflow executes the action it seems to be replacing a non null value with the blank value I am trying to replace potential null values with.  I am not a SQL guru, I barely get by with the help of Google, so perhaps this is just a misunderstanding of what I am trying to accomplish, which is to query the data warehouse and replace a NULL Received Date value with another value as to avoid the DBNull workflow error.  Here is the workflow SQL query which pulls back a result that matches the data warehouse; 1/8/2019.But when the workflow executes, it appears to replace the value with the ' ' value even though the value in the data warehouse is no
I have a Nintex workflow that is used by our legal team for approval and signatures. The document is saved on a network share and each user is directed to that location where they sign the document - the document will have multiple signatures.  However, when the second (and subsequent) users sign they must save the document with a different name. I need to keep one document with all the signatures  Â
Hi there - I am new to Nintex and hoping someone can help. I have a Nintex Form which records progress on tasks. its a very simple form - it has one REPEATING panel called "Task", containing three fields "TaskTitle (single line field)", "Task Progress" (MultiLineField) and a Drop Down Choice "Yes/No". (I am happy to change this to a Yes No Checkbox if it makes life easier)  I have two Buttons at the top - Open Tasks, Complete Tasks.   What I would like is for, when a task is complete (the "yes" option is chosen in the drop down field) the Panel hides under the "Open Tasks" button interface, and shows but is disabled under the "Closed tasks" interface. Could anyone give me an idea on how to achieve this? Thank you. Â

We just recently updated Sharpoint and Nintex from 2013 to 2016. Previously on the choice controls the choice text was next to the button/box. Now the it is below the button/box. Is there a setting or change that would put the choice text back next to the box like it used to before the update?

Greetings:I am trying to call a REST Web Service using the Web Request action (POST) in Nintex Workflow (on-prem 2019). I have successfully called this service using both curl and Postman so I know I have the right parameters but when I try this in my Nintex workflow I get a "301 Moved Permanently" response status. I believe that this indicates that the server has moved to a new location (my response headers include one that says Server=nginx) but I can't make it work even with the new location information. So I checked the "Allow auto redirect" setting, assuming that this is what curl and Postman do to automatically follow the redirect but when doing that the response status is now 500, not 301, and the error message becomes "Result: HTTP::REST Error while determine Operation for request URI."Does this mean that even though I specified POST as the request type that this information is not passed to the service on redirection? What do I need to do to get this to work in Nintex when it
Good morning.I inherited a WF recently that has many different levels of manager, department or group approvals. For example, a flexi task is assigned to a group with several approvers. There are other groups Cc'd on the task. So depending on the number of approvers assigned the task, that is the number of notification emails that each member of the Cc group will receive. This occurs regardless if the 'Create individual tasks for all group members' is selected or not.Is there something I'm missing? Or, should I remove the Cc groups from the Flexi task and create a 'Send Notification' step and add the Cc group there?Thank you - obrijo
Hello,I'm trying to read cells from an Excel file with Nintex workflow. It look's simple, but it doesn't work for me. These are my current steps for testing: 1. the requested Excel is opened using "OpenWorkbook" on the current document in the library, which is specified by "Name"2. There's only one sheet in this file, named "test". In order to proof that, I run "GetSheetsName", as shown below, but the result is empty:3. I tried to read the data of a single cell either using a range or define it by row and column. Last I tried to get a whole row by specifying a range. But this doesn't work neither.  Regardless, what I try the result is always empty and i get the following error message:<soap:Fault xmlns:soap="<a href="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/</a>"><faultcode>soap:Server</faultcode><faultstring>Server was unable to process request. ---&gt; Object reference not set to an instance of an obje

Hello fellow Nintex Admins, i am testing Nintex Forms Enterprise at the moment, to see how the implemented PDF creation works. The problem is, there seems to be no button binding for this feature and i can only print through the Ribbon Bar. In my form i don't show the Ribbon Bar, so the user can't access the Ribbon Menu Button. Is there a Nintex JavaScript method to trigger the feature? CheersDaniel
