Nintex for SharePoint

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

So i want to enable a label with message before start of executing the code and hide the label after execution of code completes.But the label  is shown and hidden only completion of execution of the code.Can anyone help me to implement something like this.  Thanks in advance,Usha

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.

Repeating section date control does display calendar icon on subsequent entries.   

Anybody use this action in their workflows? My understanding is that this Workflow action can convert SP list data to a PDF using a defined template. Is this correct? Anybody have any pros/cons they would like to share?

Hello - I have created and published an intake form on Nintex and I want my employees to be able to go to our Sharepoint home page, click a link and then be directed to a page where the Nintex form is displayed. Can anyone help? Thanks.  

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

Hello,   Does anyone know of a way to query all Nintex Forms that are using custom JavaScript ? Perhaps through a  PowerShell command? 

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?

I have a calculated column made to show how many days overdue is a permit. Right now if the permit expiry date is not picked it is giving 44,265 days overdue due to the date being 12/31/1904. I want to put if isblank "" but I am not sure where to insert that in the code. =IF(ISERROR(DATEDIF([Permit Expiry Date],Today,"d")),"0",(DATEDIF([Permit Expiry Date],Today,"d")))

Using Nintew 2013.  I have a share point list that I would like to save to a file share, so I can move with FTP software.  I want to automate this process.  New to Nintex, so not only want to know if it's possible, but would like to see workflow examples

Hello there,I am stuck with below issue since few days. I have a panel and inside panel have a repeating control.Using jquery i am now trying to delete the rows in the panel of repeating control but the size of the panel is not reducing.trying as belowForeach repeating section row , NWF$(".repeaterclass .nf-repeater-row").each(function(index){if(index!=0){$(this).remove();}});I had to use above code to speed up the activity at background. If i am using NWF$('.nf-repeater-deleterow-image').click(), then it is resizing but taking a lot of time as there are around 110 rows. I found few posts to resize to use like below. in my case i replaced label class with repeater control classNWF.FormFiller.Functions.ProcessFillerControl(NWF$('.theLabelClass'), NWF$('.formFillerDiv') ) ‍But no luck. Thanks and Regards in advance,Usha.   

Dear Team,I want to enforce users to submit the data to the list, i have successfully implemented the solution using below article/post. But i have small problem, if you have already submitted once and you delete record from list and try to submit the item, still it says you have already submitted once. https://community.nintex.com/t5/Community-Blogs/Enforce-submission-only-once/ba-p/82126 Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.Thanks in advance.Regards,

Hi, I've a list which I'm querying and getting list of users and I've to populate that in a repeating section of another list. Using collection operation, I know the count of users which I can use to for indexing the rows in update XML but I'm having difficulty creating the XML for the row and the complete XML of that repeating section. I'm trying to use Add a node option. Can anyone help me? Please share the screenshot of update XML configuration if possible. Thanks.

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

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. 

We've recently upgraded to SharePoint 2019 where we have numerous lists using the standard SharePoint form and numerous workflows which start on item modification. With SharePoint 2019, when editing an item, the properties save automatically without the user having to click Save. This is inadvertently triggering the list workflows as it thinks it's been modified, naturally this is causing us lots of issues.  There are several lists so I don't want (or need) to be going through and customising each one, nor re-configuring the workflows. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there any resolution?

Requirements: User needs a workflow that based on review date it will send an email 30 days before and 15 days if it has not been completed. Needs to take the approved document convert it to PDF and then move it a different location. Once it is approved it needs to kick off again 365 days from approved date.  Solution (Attached): I currently have it working fine by using a state machine and a pause until action at the beginning of the workflow. Just not sure this is the best way to do it for performance and such. Question: What is the best practice for running such a workflow. Should it be a site workflow that kicks off a list item workflow? Is it okay to run as an endless loop on the item? What are the pros/cons of each? Please provide some insight in to what the site workflow should look like to kick off the list item workflow if that is the recommended path.  

I've created multiple content types for a list. There are a group of shared columns across all content types, so I created a base CT that includes only those columns and then created child CTs that include the base CT columns and their own unique columns. Now, when I try to set up rules in any of the forms for the child CTs, only the base CT columns appear in the Item Properties tab.I've tried using the Named Controls, but have found that the rules/formulas work with the Item Property fields that are available, but not with the Named Controls for date fields (using IsNullOrEmpty() and dateFormat() ) even if I use a Named Control for an available Item Property. Is this a known issue or is there a logical reason why Item Properties for a child CT would not appear? 

Hi all,We have just recently gotten Nintex workflows/forms for my company. I have created a form for new personnel to get signed off by different departments. Currently it is a list of department names and a people picker field next to dept name. We need to ensure that all personnel get cleared in to all departments.  Currently this is a manual entry into the people picker. The problem is somebody could type somebody else's name into the people picker. I would like to have a field that will be populated by a button click with the "current user".  This way we can confident that the right person "cleared" them in. Also I would need to have the button disable once the corresponding field has been populated. 

As per:https://community.nintex.com/t5/How-To-s/Remove-Unused-Nintex-Workflow-Content-Database/ta-p/87264 "nwadmin -o DetachDatabase -Servername SQL_ALIAS -databaseName NintexWorkflowDB_Custom Does not remove a database if the database no longer exists in SQL. You receive the error: Command line execution error: Cannot open database "NintexWorkflowDB_Custom" requested by the login. The login failed.Login failed for user 'CONTOSOsvc_farmAdmin'. There is no -force option on the command and it doesn't seem to proceed with removing the rows from the configuration database.  I'm less inclined to actually want to go in an edit rows in the DB just in-case it leaves something wonky. Any solutions for this problem?  Could NintexDev maybe have the command complete the operation properly if the database doesn't exist?

I have classic designer form and added a dropdown lookup field with 4000 items. Has anyone implemented autocomplete for the lookup field in SharePoint Online environment?   What is the best way to achieve it?

I have a workflow that copy the Attachments from the list item into a particular library. Unfortunately, whenever a user attach a file that an apostrophe character in its filename. My current workflow, can't detect the attachments from the list item.   Does anyone know how to resolve this issue with the apostrophe? 

Can someone suggest a good FULL tutorial on how to Parse XML and display text result (SharePoint 2016). All links I found are broken, all answers are incomplete - usually end with "and now you need to build For each... Good luck." I can't believe that there are no good tutorial for this subject, considering so many people have a problem with Repeating Sections / XML Parsing.
