Workflow Status

Error in task. Cannot find item with in list 'Exception to Policy Request'. Check the user has at least read permissions

This error has been plaguing us for months.

1) Nintex 2013
2) list with simple flexitasks and two approvals
3) workflow does not fail on start but after at least 2 days of waiting

4) all workflows do not fail but each day after 2 days waiting the likely hood increases. after 4,5,6 days the likely hood increases

5) workflow do not fail on weekends

6) workflows fail in larger amounts during the morning

7) workflow failure does not depend on ether approval task just time it remains un approved

8) this happens with all workflows on the entire farm

9) if i give permissions directly, using the person's name...almost no errors

10) if i give permissions with active directory security groups...largest amount of errors

11) using the permission checker...a large amount of users given permissions via active directory security groups report the user "DOES NOT HAVE PERMISSIONS" but they users can access the site and start workflow. 

any suggestions?

Good day,

Can you send a screenshot of the flexi task configuration screen?

With some of the configuration settings, if a certain % of the people approved it, the task moves on to the next step. So if the next person tries to approve it, he might get a message stating that the task is not available anymore.

thank you for your help.

We found several problems with our active directory tokens were timing out and this and several other sharepoint configuration problems caused this issue.

thank you for your help!
