I wonder if someone could walk me through building a Nintex Workflow (SP 2016) that sends a notification to all parties (easy part) every 2 weeks if the Status = Pending. I don't want to use Flexi Task.

 

Thank you!

Hey @DaisyWyatt ,



 



u have to set it up like this:



 





 



 



at first the loop:



 



if "Status (ur field name)" equals "pending" then it will start the loop:



 





 



now its gonna send the email notification for the first time to remind everyone that this item is on pending (u could prevent that if u want by setting up a workflow variable and check if it contains a specific value).



 



and after the email was send the workflow will wait for 14 days:



 





 



after those 14 days the workflow will jump to the beginning of the loop again and will check if the status is still pending... if it is then the email will go out again if not then it skips the loop.



 


Thank you.

FYI, long-term looping workflows are going to be problematic since there are many things that can interrupt workflow processing in SharePoint.

A better approach is to use a scheduled workflow with a repeating interval. That it runs at a specific time for a short duration, ends, then restarts at the next interval.
