Either you have participated in a Shadowing program as you start a new role, implemented that type of program, or at least heard of such a thing. From my experience, shadowing is a crucial part of an onboarding process. You can watch all the videos you like, but unless you see the work done live […]
The idea behind this process, is that we want to have an order Nintex form that has a repeating section with order items in it. Those order items, we want to appear in another list. An Order Items list. There are a few caveats here. We want to make sure that if you go back […]
Looking into CRM systems that are out there, that are cloud based, vtiger CRM came up. Since Nintex Workflow doesn’t have built in connectors to vtiger, I decided to look into their REST API. I investigated what the login steps are, and what is needed, eg access key, login details etc. There are few things […]
This is the first post, post Nintex InspireX. I was actually quite surprised at how awesome the first InspireX event was last year. But this one was so much better. The only thing I would do to make it better, is make it an extra day. I felt like I had no time to breathe, […]
I’m going to keep this one short. No screenshots.. Everything is explained in the video. The aim of this scenario, is that you have a workflow that can fail, but you have no way of preventing that. Certain actions don’t have Error Handling in them, so you need to do something about it. This process […]
Over a year ago, I had a need to have a workflow update/append text to a Multiple Lines of Text field. I figured out one way to do it, based on having a MLoT field that was set to Enhanced rich text. Then I completely forgot to blog about it. This came up again in […]
A Brazilian friend of mine reached out to me, where she had a DateTime field on a list that was configured to only be a Date. But when trying to compare the current date in the workflow to the value in the field, it would never match. That makes sense, because Nintex treats the current […]
This interesting question came up on the Nintex Community – Making the workflow wait for one of 4 fields to change. Since the Wait for Item Update action in Nintex Workflow only supports one condition, how do build logic into our workflow that can check multiple conditions? To get around the limitation of the Wait […]
Parsing collections is often used in Nintex Workflows. I showed it here in an old blog post – Iterate through Related Collections. But what came up recently, was reverse parsing collections. That was an interesting challenge, since what I didn’t want to do, is use a Loop action. Why? Because a Loop is affected by Safe […]
