Using SharePoint 2019 on-premise and Nintex 2019, a workflow that was not touched recently has now lost it’s workflow column. In other words, in the views of this document library it is not possible to display the workflow status of this workflow. The workflow is running fine, but there is now status column to add to views. It was present as recently as last week. Here is some more information:

  • SharePoint patched monthly to most recent version.
  • Nintex is working in other site collections fine.
  • Have tried disabling the Nintex features at the site collection level and the site level.
  • Have republished the workflow.
  • Have done an IIS reset on the servers.

None of these steps have helped. If anyone has helpful to share it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi @WalterCurtis,

 

This is a strange issue and hopefully someone on this forum has experienced this issue and can help you out.  I just wanted to advise that the workflow status column in SharePoint actually belongs to SharePoint.  The workflow may have been created with Nintex but Nintex is using SharePoints workflow engine and hence it uses SharePoints workflow status column. If you do not get a resolution here you may need to contact Microsoft support.
