Most workflow designers will create workflows to fulfill a specific business requirement. Examples of these, are the template workflows that are available to you when you go to create a new workflow using the Nintex Workflow designer (eg. Human Resources : Annual Leave template to fulfill the requirement of your staff who want to apply […]
I came across an entertaining Flow Chart for NHL Suspension. Down Goes Brown – The NHL Suspension Flow Chart So I thought I’d spend 15 mins whipping it up in a workflow. This way, if someone decides to use it in a SharePoint environment, they can :). It was fun for a laugh while watching […]
I have found that many people are interested in not only starting a workflow as soon as a document or list item is created, but also to run a workflow over a number of items in another list or document library. You have 2 options here.1. Create a workflow that performs all the logic for […]
It seems that the Nintex Workflow Collection variable can be confusing, so I thought I’d try to shed some light on it. This really comes into play, when you start using the Execute SQL which currently only supports returning one column, or if you are using Query XML and the XPath. If you have multiple […]

I was shocked to tell you the truth. 🙂 So, during a conversation with a fellow developer, we were discussing how we don’t know anyone who does VB.net development. On top that, what if someone wanted to write a Nintex […]
TekDog Inc are now providing training for Nintex products. I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with a few of the staff there, and they sound like a great bunch of people who really know what they are talking about. If you are in the process of installing Nintex Workflow, Forms or Analytics, and want ramp […]
