How to Update an Item in a DocLib "silently"

$
0
0

I hope someone can help me...

I have the job of writing a number of workflows (using Nintex Workflow 2010).  However, something I want to do is not available out-of-the-box and, as such, I would like to create a "Custom Action".

I am not a developer and creating a Custom Action is way above my head! 

I have come to the forum in hope that someone has already created a Custom Action to do what I require - and would be willing to share it!  :-)  Please?  Pretty Please?  :-)

My Environment...

  • I have two different Document Libaries...some which require CheckIn/CheckOut before an item can be updated...and some Document Libraries that don't require CheckIn/CheckOut.

My Requirements...

  • I would like a Custom Action that works in very much the same way as "Update item" works...only that it does so silently - ie. Without updating the "Modified By" and "Modified" fields.

I can see on the SharePoint Developer Site that there is a function called SystemUpdate which allows updates to be made without changing the "Modified By" and "Modified" fields.  So, I believe this is possible - I just don't know how to implement it.

Can anyone help me?

Many, many thanks,

Lee

Query the list in a loop problem

$
0

Hi, I have a list with WF that query remote list. The initial list contain field with lookup to the remote list and the ability to choose more than one value. The problem I will describe here is observed only when I choose more than one value.  

As the multivalue is separated by semicolon, I'm querying the remote list from collection. So initially I have a collection and than in a loop is used this collection variable for quering the remote list. The problem is that in a first cycle the query is getting the correct results, but in a second cycle the result are same as the results from first cycle.

I've turned on the logging options so I know that the variable is setup correctly before the query the list action is used. The result is stored in different variable, unfortunatelly this variable is not rewriten in the second cycle.

It is most probably the bug because when I switch the collection order in the item, the results are ok, but again just for first collection variable. Does not matter what order is used, the correct variable is always the firts cycle.

The WF does>

  1. setting the variable for the actual item
  2. regex to parse text separated by ; to collection
  3. looping in the cycle>
    A) write to the WF history what is the actual variable (here is the variable always OK)
    B) query the list with condition (variable is used to match criteria)
    C) write to the WF history what is tha variable (first cycle gets variable correctly, second do NOT)

I hope the description is easy to understand.

P.S.: I have tested the same scenario using query the webservice action with the same results!!!

Any suggestions are welcome

Wait For Item Update action with Regular Expression

$

I have a workflow that needs to wait until a Lookup Field is set to one of two desired values. In the Wait For Item Update action, I choose "to match regular expression" and use the regex "(First Value)|(Second Value)".

The issue is the workflow never proceeds past the Wait For Item Update action when the field is changed to either of the desired values. Any ideas what is going wrong?

As for a RuneScape player,cheap rs gold is always one of most worthwhile to pursue outside the game.If you don't have many skills about how to enjoy the game well,owning plenty of runescape gold will win you much dignity in the game.

Then what are the trustable and reliable place to buy rs gold for RS game?You don't want to farm directly in the game cause it will take you much spare time and extra money.Depending on other websites which specially offer rs gold with other related items and equipment will help you a lot.

Some of the this kind of websites are established by chinese people ,the rs gold prices are relatively much cheaper and convenient.Take rsvalley.com for an example,you can see lots of players choose to buy from it.You should get to know more about this websites at http://www.rsvalley.com/

Provision to advance manually to different action in a running instance of workflow

Hi

I am new to Nintex workflows and i was previously working on another BPM tool, in that tool we had an option to set current running action to some other action with in a running instance of workflow. For example:

Consider a workflow as shown below:

Start -> Get List Item -> Assign Task -> Update List Item -> Send Mail -> End

Now once the workflow is started and an instance is running, suppose an error occurs in a step Update List Item or workflow is stuck in that action in the running instance, there was a provision to make the workflow to go to previous/next intance manually by the administrator. However, I didnt find this option in Nintex till now.

Can anyone suggest me if this can be done by any means. Hoping for a quick reply from the nintex team Smile

Thanks

Javascript reference

Is there a javascript reference for Nintex Forms. For example your ConditionalDisplayofControl.js file shows how to find the currently ticked field in a set of radio buttons and also mentions: "NWF.Utilities.RepositionAndResizeOtherControls". I can also see that you post individual snippets in response to specific questions.  Is there documentation on other Utilities and how to get as well as set other control types?

Nintex 2013 workflows and InfoPath 2013

$
0

I am struggling to find any useful information on how to incorporate an InfoPath 2013 form into a Nintex 2013 workflow.

I have tried and created a workflow, from which I can collect data, and I know that I need separate Content types for the type of Data I'm looking to collect.  But what I'd really prefer it to collect the necessary data at the appropriate place within my workflow, but have all the collected data appear on the same form.  So that at the end of the workflow, the information collected along the way will all appear on a final form (or report).  As the data is collected, I don't want to innudate each user with information that is not relavent to their needs to complete their task, and only wish to share what is needed for a given user at a given point in the process to do their work. 

If I have a 10 task process and in task 1 I collect inital info such as Employee Name, Employee Address and Place of Business. 

Task 2 should only carry the Place of Place of Business info and then collect new data pertaining to that Business (Number of Employees, Business Location).

Task 3 then captures some new info which asks or determines a boolean value to be passed on for use to resolve a decision within the Workflow

Task 4 brings forward the Employee Name and Employee Address info, using this to determine Type of Dwelling.

Task 5 uses Type of Dwelling to determine which direction the workflow follows Task 6 or Task 7

Task 6 gathers info based on the Type of Dwelling result and performs some actions and then pushes the user to Task 10 to end the workflow.

Task 7 gathers more info based on the Type of Dwelling result and also performs some logic base on the Business Location info collected in Task 2 to determine which direction the workflow follows Task8 or Task 9...

You get it from there...

But it's the collecting of data on either one common form or many small one and using them strategically within the workflow that I'm struggling with. 

Can anyone point me to some good guides on how to implement InfoPath forms for collecting data to be used in Nintex 2013 Workflows?

Update workflow task view when task is done

Hello,

I got a workflow that is linked to a sharepoint list.

When viewing a workflow task that is 100% done, the form shows the list's fields values as they were when the approver approved, even if these fields have been updated later by the workflow.

Is there a way to force the workflow task form to show the updated values instead of their previous values ?

Thanks

 

Workflow errors when started from contex menu

We have workflow configured to start manually and have enabled "Start from Item Menu"

The workflow runs and completes when we manually start it (Item Edit-> Workflows-> Start workflow). It runs fine when Default setting is selected  in form type (so we get Start and cancel button when clicked on context menu) .

The same workflow errors @ await for checkout status change action in workflow when it triggered from Context Menu (start from Item Menu) when custom type is selected with blank as given here .. http://connect.nintex.com/forums/thread/21529.aspx

 any one has experienced this before ? has any pointer?

Start the workflow only when submitted

Is there a way to start the workflow only when the form has been submitted?

I have a form worth three A4 pages and I would like to give them options to save and revisit again. Until a user completed with the form and submitted, I would like to hold the workflow.

 I'm using 2010 version of Nintex Workflow and SharePoint. The form is done in Infopath 2010.

Thanks for your help in advance!

Workflow start form with save button (no submit)

$

0

If adding a Button control to my workflow start form I can select which button action to use:

  • Save
  • Save and Submit
  • Cancel
  • JavaScript

The 'Save' and 'Save and Submit' action however do not behave different as far as I can see.

If using the 'Save' action in a form, the form is submitted and the workflow is started.

I would expect it to save the form but not start the workflow.

Or am I wrong?

How does Nintex resolve the 'Site Owners' lookup field?

$
0
0

I'm trying to create a workflow which targets tasks to site owners of a specific web where the workflow is instantiated however the workflow errors and says 'Error in request approval action. The user to assign the task to has resolved as blank text.'

The 'site owners' variable did work with the default root site collection owners group but I have removed the root web owners groups and broken inheritance so that the 'site owners' group relates specifically to each SPWeb instance in the site collection.

Each web in the site collection has its own owners who will be managing content and the workflow needs to send the tasks to the specific owners of the web. How do I get the 'Site Owners' lookup to work correctly?

I've tried the following with no luck :

  1. Created a group in each web called 'Site Name Owners' and assigned the 'full control' permission and then added users to this group.
  2. Navigated to  ../myweb/_layouts/permsetup.aspx and ensured the group is set as the (SPWeb.AssociatedOwnerGroup) owners group.

The 'Site Owners' lookup still throws the error in the workflow saying its empty...

If I recreate the Owners group at the root site collection web, the 'Site Owners' lookup works again.

Conclusion is that Nintex does NOT honour the actual owners group if you break inheritance. NINTEX please ADVISE!

How do I get the 'site owners' lookup to correctly point to the owners of the SPWeb the workflow is running from???

 

 

The request returned invalid WSDL

$

Hi, 

for weeks we are trying to have a webservice fill a field. Seems easy enough. But.

If we run the workflow that has the webservice manually it runs ok, but as soon as this is automated (conditionally)started through another workflow the webservice will not start. The error we get is "The request returned invalid WSDL".

We have tried loads of different things (looping, wait for item update) but still no luck. The user that initiates the flow and teh webservice has enough rights as far as we know. (we also use webservoice to start workflows, that runs smoothly without any issues)

The purpose of what we are doing is:

We gather information from a list and place this info in variables. Then we use the webservice to place the variables in a nice emailformat.

Currently we are running out of options and I hope someone has a solution/suggestion for this.

Hello!

We have purchased the enterprise version of NW2010, and after installation to our production farm we are seeing repetitive failed timer jobs from the "Nintex Live Workflow Synchronization" job.

The error message is "The operation is not valid for the state of the transaction."

This is occuring every 30 minutes or an hour.

We have Nintex Live configured and are able to browse the catalog. Why are these errors occuring?

Thanks,

Ken
