Hello!

I'm new to nintex workflows and trying to get some automation in my workflow on sharepoint. In the workflow settings I want to start a workflow only if a certain column equals today. Can I use any function in the start workflow if settings?

If not is there a good workaround?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Richardsss 

 

Simple method. Just start the workflow when the form is submitted. The first action is a PAUSE UNTIL action. Set the date as the date column on the list.

The advance method requires a daily scheduled Site Workflow which scans through the list and start the List workflow when a certain column equals today.

 

I suggest you try out the simple method first as this just require you to add a Pause Until action as the first action in your workflow.
