Nintex Forms Validation Between List Lookup and Current User

[#1]

Hi All,

We have requirement where user is allowed to select approvers from the list lookup in the workflow start form as shown below

The values are pulled form the list as shown below:

As per our requirement, the approver selected in the any of the three list lookup should not be equal to the current user. Can anyone let us know whether this can be achieved?

Thanks,

Nidish

Hi Nidish Kotian,

In order to achieve this, you'll need to recognize that by selecting "current user", you are evaluating the account name property (typically DOMAIN\USERID) and not the display name property (typically Last, First).

You'll either need to capture the approver's account name or grab the current user's display name. Alternatively you could just include the approvers ID in the drop-down selection if you're linking to the title. There's a number of options
