Hi everyone,

I'm working on a Nintex form which has mandatory fields. I'm using both the save and save button. The logic I want in my form are;

Save button- allows user to save document even when mandatory fields are blank

Save and submit button - does not let the user submit (save and submit) document if mandatory fields are left blank.

I have read all the previous posts on this forum about this issue, but none of them have being helpful.

I will appreciate any help I can get with this.

Cheers!

I can confirm - I actually just used this 2 weeks ago; works like a charm! TAKE THAT, VALIDATION RULES!

Rhia,  How did you go about it? 

I mean how did you enforce mandatory fields in Nintex form? I set fields to mandatory on SharePoint and the post says it only works if you set mandatory fields in Nintex.

Ah! I used rules - and then instead of formatting, I used validation.

Then you can say things like ... not(isNullOrEmpty({Self})) - ie, "if this field doesn't have an entry, don't let them submit!"

Thanks Rhia!

Hi, 

 

On the client click in Save button you can mention. "return true;" which saves even if their validation exist in form.
