We use Nintex Forms/Workflow 4.6.0.1 Trying to validate the Choice at the Approval Stage.When manager rejects the request then the comment section must be filled. I am trying this validation assigned to the comment, but it does not go through: isNullOrEmpty(trim({Self})) && Decision=="Reject"  The Choise: Approve or RejectWhen inspecting with F12 in Firefox the Approve is = 3 and Reject is 4 I also tried with Decision==4 or Decision!=4 but no luck.If I use a calculatedvalue field to show the value from Decison, then it is always -1 no matter what.  Please advise, it's driving me nuts.Yes, at the flexiTask I edited the Reject and selected "Required" dropdown option.Â
I am attempting to retrieve a value based on a selection the user has made in a Lookup dropdown. The output value I want is stored in a lookup column. lookup("Impacts","Title",parselookup([Form].[lookupAppSystem]),"BSA") In plain terms: In the "Impacts" list, return the value from the "BSA" column where the "Title" equals the value selected in the "lookupAppSystem" dropdown. This formula works just fine if the column I am retrieving the value from is not a lookup column. But the formula does not work if the output value is from a lookup column, no value is returned and I get a blank value. Is this a limitation of Nintex? How can I workaround this?

Hello Community! I am working with Nintex for SharePoint 2013 and I need to format the text in a field after the field has been disabled, ideally the text could be made black instead of grey. I need this so the text in the disabled field can be read more easily when printed. Has anyone else done this? If so then please provide guidance and examples. Thanks! Tom

Hello, when i use Nintex interface to create a new workflow / form i have a mix of french and english on the ressources used.  This is an example, most of the ressources are English and some in French (yellow). This site is based on French language and regional settings are also French. Nintex was installed with the International version (including French).    Et ayant également le Français dans les paramètres régionnaux We suspect that the French ressources are the SharePoint standards and everything else in English is specific to Nintex so it could be something wrong with our Nintex installation / ressources ? Did you face this issue as well ? Did you fix it ?  Thanks for your help ! Xavier.Â
Hello!I have a question, I have a text field that must be filled with numbers, and according to the value of the number the orange buttons below should disappear or appear, I want to link them so that I can select according to the value which disappear. For example: less 10k I want only 1 button to appear and more than 10k I want everyone to appear.It is just an example, but the concept is the same: Number value> There must be some button missing. And how do I put it in the field for example, if it is from 10k to 100k, only one button appears for example? This can be a little complex but can someone help me by doing a step by step from the numerical settings to the appearance of buttons according to the selected numbers?Thank you. Â
Hi there!I'm struggling with Nintex form on SHP 2013 - I want to filter dropdown menu based on selection in another dropdown that is taken from lookup column. Config:List 1: contains a single column with location namesList 2: contains project name column (string) and project location (lookup from list1) columns (plus some other status columns, but it's irrelevant here)List 3: reporting list where I build up my form that looks up on List 2 projects and takes 2nd column of project location in addition. The form has 2 fields:location (lookup from list 1) project name (lookup from list 2)Now - if you select location A, then project name control should be filtered out by this location name (so i see all projects, but these which were assigned to location A on List 2).  Is it doable? I've been trying to filter It out many ways, but all I could achieve is ...opposite - select location and see only this location's assigned projects, placing it in not() broke the thing completely.Â
Hello all,I have a basic workflow which I have created many times before with no issues and all working fine but this one just keeps coming back with error. ERROR IN REQUEST APPROVAL ACTION OBJECT REFERENCE NOT SET TO AN INSTANCE OF AN OBJECT. It’s driving me crazy can anyone help me please ?Â
I am creating a registration form that will be automatically emailed to an employee at a certain time when they are in for their shift. I have researched around and can't find anything like this created before. Is this possible for SharePoint using Nintex workflow?I will need to ensure this form can be emailed to the employees at the start of shift so that they do not have to go out of their way to complete the task. Ideally, I want the registration data to be saved in a form or calendar so that it can be referred to.  I have played around with this however I have struggled with sending tailored emails to individuals at the specific times they are in.  Any help anyone can provide me will be appreciated!Thanks, Martin
Hello all :-) is there a way to restore a previous version of a document (from libary) with nintex workflow for SharePoint 2013? (eg after a rejected content approval)? thanksHeise51092
Hello folks, I'm currently facing this problem: I'd need to use a Infopath form for a specific request data action, because I need to have conditional formatting and some field validation rules in place.For best user experience, I want a detailed task description to be shown in the task completion window. The description contains multiple workflow variables and/or list item values. However, when switching the form type to "Infopath", the task description no longer displays. Question 1: How can I achieve that the task description that uses multiple workflow variables, is shown in the complete task window, using form type "Infopath"?Question 2: If there is no easy answer to question 1, is there a way to query workflow varibles in the Infopath form, using Infopath Designer (2013)? I appreciate any help.

I have a nintex form that contains multiple dropdown selections. I want the dropdowns to reset each time a user selects another dropdown (as they should be selected independently of each other). Has anyone tried to do something similar? What might an appropriate solution be?
I have a list with many items on it. I can send a workflow email to alert the assigned person to view the list however, I would like to direct link them to the item to which they are assigned.  Thanks Tim
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! Â
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
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.
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?Â
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.
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?
