HiI see this requirement and question come up multiple times when searching for a solution, so wonder if anyone has a workaround…So, a form is submitted for approval - use case would be a Purchase Requisition. The Approver has the option to Approve, Reject or Return the request. In the Return scenario, the Originator needs to make an amendment to the original data before it can be resubmitted for approval.The Requisition form has a repeating section, so the Originator can add n lines to the request.  I see there was work being done on editable repeating sections in this topic - But haven’t seen any updates on this. So, does anyone have a solution to this? We’re left with either asking users to completely re-enter data, or I’ve references to a copy/paste process that would allow editing of data, but just seems a little disjointed…. Thanks for any suggestions!

Hello everyone,I’ve created a ‘Documents only Group’ and until just yesterday, Process Manager allowed me to ‘link’ documents from my DMS to this group. This is, the ‘documents only group’ (DOG) I’m referring to was part of the list of groups displayed and to choose from when clicking on ‘add/link document’.However, after the recent “modernisation of the documents area’ (and I’m not saying this is the reason - it might be a coincidence), I can’t see the ‘DOG’ anymore when trying to execute the operation above described. It seems like DOGs are not shown due to their condition? i.e. groups created to store documents only.If that is the case, the question is: How do I add documents to this group from now on?I tried by “associating documents to an additional document group in bulk”, which is a feature offered by PM. This works but the document needs to be in PM in the first place i.e. I have to link it from our DMS to another existing group and then ‘associate it’ to the DOG via this optio

Has anyone successfully configured EWS with the U.S. M365 Government Exchange Service? I am assuming that a non-person entity or service account would need to be setup, but I am not sure where to start or if it is even possible without setting up the Azure AD Government Cloud. Both our versions of SharePoint and K2 are on prem. I assume the connection string would be something like this but not sure what else would be required from the K2 side or Gov Side. Any successful integration advice is welcome.

Hi guys,I try to know if (and when) Nintex automation K2 could be available as an image to install it as containers over a Docker / K8s infrastructure ?Is there any work on it ? Many thanks for your helpLouis

I’m not sure why but the system (update items actions) will NOT allow me to update metadata on a folder. Any reasons why? No issues updating metadata in Power Automate. I cannot find another way to update metadata using Nintex Automation Cloud so may have to pivot to PA for this one.Let me know if I’m overlooking something here.  

General House Keeping Question:Does anyone Delete  old employees from Process Manager or do you leave them as Disabled forever?We have 1336 disabled users, and a current user list of 1320.My general rule now for when someone leaves is to delete all their roles and transfer all their processes (if possible) - but there’s a whole lot of history in here to clean up.Thanks

Community, I have the following scenario I’m attempting to building using nintex workflow and two sharepoint lists. I have two lists, list a and list b. What I’d like to create is two workflows one when an item is created in list a it is copied to list b which will be used to compare list a when something changes. Workflow 2. When an item in list a modified. The modified item is compared to it’s respective item in list b. The changes are then added to an email. Once the email is sent list b is then updated with the modifications from list a

I have updated our sandbox to the latest release, but I am not seeing the new Page Designer as listed in the release notes, nor the migration instructions from the linked Page Designer on moving the composer pages out.  Just wondering if I am missing a step in the upgrade. Thanks!

Hi there,Has anyone created a flow that will allow a user to be added to the Automate user list a a participant.

Therefore we want to create a workflow that the user can add themselves.I cannot see a workflow part in the list to achieve this.Hope someone can helpCheers,Jamo 

Hello everyone,Just wondering whether any of you have had to deal with this task before?The business I work for is considering linking all controlled documents currently sitting in our DMS to Process Manager and I’ve been asked to present a case so we can assess whether the exercise is worthy.If you have dealt with this before, do you mind sharing at least 1 pro/con and any implication I need to consider?Thanks,Carlos

My team and I are trying to have a DocGen Package run when a record is created/updated and meet certain criteria via Flows. This package is intended to send a receipt to a designated user (pulled from a contact page). When we run tests manually, the package works, but when we try to use automation, the logs read successful, but no email is received.  We do not have any errors to show as to why that may be happening. Any ideas on how we can fix this?

Are there step-by-step instructions or a how to video to download and use the Process Manager templates in the Nintex Gallery that I can share with users?

Hello,Is anyone be able to split a value from variable collection output from XML to a multi line of text in SharePoint list. Building a Nintex workflow but for some reason I was unable to get it working using the Regular Expression or Build String workflow action.Any help is much greatly appreciated. Thank you.Antonio

Good afternoon! I was hoping to identify a user group of Credit Union, FI/Bank BPM team members who may be able to share some trials, tribulations and use cases. Are you using APQC as a framework or any other frameworks? How do your groups look?Do you still use the numbering system and the nomenclature provided by APQC?If you are an APQC member, what sort of value have you gotten from that relationship?How do your end users correlate their process groups with their business units for areas like 4 & 5? Do you use Nintex as a Knowledge Base/Asset Repository or some other Document Management System/Knowledge Management System? Is anyone using Sharepoint and are you matching the structure of APQC in your folders or Doc Libraries there? One spot for everything or do departments/business units get to have their own site where their relevant documents/artifacts are kept? How do you handle governance in these situations?  Is anyone incorporating change management into their BPM work? What

Is there a way, within a form (i.e., at runtime), to truncate a decimal number? It’s a currency amount, so I want only two decimal places. But I don’t want to round the number. In other words, the result needs to looks like this:1056.2304 = 1056.231056.2384 = 1056.23Rounding the number can occasionally create a difference of $0.01. A penny may not seem like much but in this case it's important. This calculation is for determining the gross amount of a distribution when you know the net amount you want to receive after tax withholding is done.Of course I’m sure there’s a RegEx to do this, but I need the truncation to happen on the form, not during the workflow.
