Localization

Hi,

we have german SharePoint installation and installed Nintex Workflow on that system. Although a lot of screens are displayed in German, a couple of details seem to remain in english. For example a task shows "complete task" on the button instead of "Aufgabe abschließen".

Does anyone know about such a problem? What is needed so that Nintex will display everything in german?

BTW: we're using Nintex 2.3.7 for SharePoint 2010. 


Workflow Designer Screen Corruption

$

0

We have just started working with Windows 8,  using Nintex workflow designer 2010 version (2.3.7.0)

When creating a new workflow (or opening an existing one) the work flow toolbox becomes massively elongated with the all but the 3 default tasks hiding at the bottom. In addition, when adding a task and trying to configure it, the screen breaks up with random white bars and the underlying action overlaying the designer making it unusable.  I have uploaded a screen shot, (note: I did a search in toolbox so there are icons there, but the other sections are down at the bottom of a huge scroll bar!)

We have tried all the IE10 compatability settings but to no avail.  Is there any fix for this?

 Everything works fine on XP, Server 2008.

 

 

Automatic Workflow stuck in "Starting" state

$

0
I have a workflow that starts automatically when items are created. The problem I'm having is that when people click on "New", fill in the required fields, and then save the document back to the server, the workflow gets stuck in a "Starting" state. This actually started happening when we changed the document that opens up when clicking "New"; if I change it back to the default document it works fine. If I terminate the workflow and start it manually it works fine as well. It doesn't seems to be a problem with my workflow since I can start it manually, so I didn't bother explaining what my workflow does. It seems that the issue probably has to do with this particular document, but I'm not sure why it only has problems on the Auto-Start. I'm hoping someone can help me out with this issue; thank you for any help on this.

How do I control tab sequence on a form?

I have several controls on a form and when it first opens, the second control has the focus.

How can I reorder the tab stops to control this?

Thanks.

Back to start

I have set a condition-

When the field is set to a certain input requested the flow works perfect

If the person forgets to fill in the field we send a reminder. Then the person goes to the item and sets the field.

No I have two strings who should follow the same route. How do I convert the route back again? Or do I have to copy all?

Hi,

 

I have a formwith 4workflowspublished.
Allworkflowsare configured to startonly whenthe itemis changedand the form isin a specific state.For example,theworkflow#1,the stateshould be"screening".Workflow#2statusmust be"analysis",and so on.

WhatI noticed is that4flowswerestartedusingthe same instance,and all of themwere executedon the sameworkflow,due to thestate valueof the form(eg,"screening").

Link to Document

Hi,

I am in the process of building a document management process including transmittals within our sharepoint site, utilising Nintex Workflow.

I am not new to Nintex, but not very advanced either.  I took inspiration from the webinar presented by PointBeyond and Nintex for an engineering company in the UK.

I have hit an issue with creating a list of the published documents. 

My Document library containing Published documents has Major version control turned on.

The idea is that a list will be created when the document is published, containing a link using the 'Link to Document' Content Type

My main question is how to ensure that the document linked will remain constant to the specific version? Also, the document library utilises a folder structure (in order to keep data lists to below 5000 documents, and also to follow process we are implementing)  I was using the Item URL to put into the URL field of the 'Link To Document', however this can exceed 255 characters.  Is there a better way to get the correct document (using  avariety of build string or regular expressions?)

 I hope you are able to assist.

 Regards

Stuart Moore


Timing workflows to the millisecond

Hi Everyone,

I'm just wondering if there is a way to see how long Workflow Actions take, down the millisecond.  All time/modification references are to the minute level only (AFAIK).

 

Thanks!

 

Assign To-Do has no Complete button.

I have used the Assign To-Do in different workflows in different sites.  One instance has a Complete button to complete the task and move the workflow to the next item.  The other instance has a Save button which changes the WF task status to InProgress and does not continue the workflow.

Has anyone else experienced this?

css style not saving in notification

I have a workflow where I'm sending a notification.  I have formatted the body of the email using an inline style by editing the html of the body of the notification.  After I save the changes to the html, the body looks fine and it formatted how I want it.  I then save the notification action.  However, if I then go and reopen the notification to edit it again, the body has reverted back to the default format.  And when I go look at the html, the custom style is gone.  Is this a defect or am I doing something wrong?  Below is my html I'm using with the style.

<head>
<style type="text/css">
p {font-family: calibri; font-size: 11pt}
ul {font-family: calibri; font-size: 11pt}

Nintex 2013 API

$

Hi guys, 

We are Nintex Partners and we are trying to implement a solution to one of our clients who uses Nintex Workflow and have the following question. 

 Is it possible to use the nintex API (object model) directly from a C# code. The solution we working on consists of InfoPath form connecting to the Nintex Web Services. However, due to the limitations found in SharePoint 2013 (related to claims) in regards to connecting to the web services (which uses windows authentication), we would like to use the Object Model for Nintex within InfoPath code behind, if possible. 

 Would you be able to let us know if it is possible or not to use the Nintex Workflow Object model directly from C#. If so, can you provide an example on how to reference the APIs in our code.

 Cheers 

 

 

Rule to ignore validation on a hidden field

$

Hi all,

I have a number of controls which are hidden or visible based on a yes/no radio button. One of the controls in this group (Name) is a required field, however it only required validation if it is visible.

I have a rule to hide the field: [equals(ResponseRequired,'No')], but want to know if there is a rule i can create or some JS so that validation ignores hidden controls. 


JS used for validation of controls:

//check that the required fields are entered.

function CheckRequired(source, arguments) {

    var returnVal = true;

    var val = arguments.Value;

    if (val == "") {

        returnVal = false;

    }

    arguments.IsValid = returnVal;

}

How to Properly End State Machine

$
0

I am a bit confused, or perhaps my expectations are incorrect, with regards to how a state machine should end a workflow.  The state machine I have consists of four states based on dollar amounts. Essentially it's an approval hiearchy on which, dependant on the dollar amount, additional approvals may be requried. 

This seemingly works fine but then I noticed that while the "End State Machine" indeed resulted in the state machine turning green and being reflected as complete the System Acccount within MOSS 2010 wasn't displaying the overall workflow as being completed when I reviewed workflow history.

So my question is this; should a state machine end and also the system account reflect the overall workflow as being completed assuming this also equates to the completion of the state machine. If so, how do you accomplish this? I have tried adding run parrallel action with both "End Workflow" and "End State Machine" but this doesn't work.  I can either get the state machine to complete without the System Account displaying the overall workflow as being completed or I can instead use End Workflow but then this reflects the state machine as being incomplete.

It is reasonable to expect both?

Thanks 

 p.s. Wish I could attach a screenshot of my workflow my question might make more sense then.

Error in application 

Sent notification with filtered list in table.

$

Hello,

 

I want to create an sent notification. In this notification where will be filtered information from a list.

What I managed to do so far is:

Query list (filter) multiple items from the list. Put them into collections.

In the email, are all the Workflow Variables.

 

The email looks like:

;;Klaas 1;;Klaas 2;

;;Just a Test 1;;Just a Test 2;

;;0632132155;;0612345678;

;;2013-05-02T08:46:06;;2013-05-02T08:45:19;

;;1;;2;

So the filter works good.
What I want to do now is put the above information into a table.

I know I need to do something with "for each".

But I don't know how.

Passing Variables

$

Howdy!

I'm attepting to pass a single variable from one workflow to another. I used Build a String to create the XML for the association data per Nintex help files, and the data is passing to the next workflow. However, I inserted a variable to be the value that would be pushed to the next workflow. Instead of getting the variable value, the association data is just pushing text title of the variable.

<Data>
<Variable1>{Common: Variable1}</Variable1>
</Data>

"{Common: Variable1}" is the title that is passed to the next workflow, not the actual value of that variable.

Please advise!

Require an Attachment,

Hello All,

I need to customize some  SharePoint list forms that will require an attachment be uploaded prior to submission. I was able to use some javascript in a content editor web part that worked with the OOTB SharePoint list form but I HATE the way those look. Does anyone know if there is a way to add the javascript to the Nintex form or another way to require an attachment?

 Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Katie
