How to create links to the Workflow Status and Details on a List

This post is quite simple, because it uses some common Nintex variables, but it born from a real user needing, and before I realized it was partially available.

Below I explain step by step how to do it!

How to create a multi-view web-based InfoPath form controlled by a Nintex Workflow

This post explores the capabilities of the integration between InfoPath 2007 + Nintex Workflow 2007. The idea is to create a form which is handled and modified by the Workflow. In order to do that, some customization on the form is needed to show and allow the users to manipulate the data on the form.

Bellow I will explain the step by step how to create this form and the workflow to manipulate it. It's necessary some coding behind the form, in order to control the default view of the form.

How to easily find the internal names of the columns

In order to use some Web Services of SharePoint methods, like UpdateListItems, we usually need the columns internal names. How is the best way to find this internal names? There are some ways.

I also found this nice post on the SharePoint Tricks and Tips Blog:

OK, but is there a simple way to do it? In my opinion, yes, there is. I do it without using an external application, just using Nintex.

Starting a new Blog

Hello all!

The idea of this blog is to share my experience with Nintex Workflow development. I started working with it this year and I haven't found many content about this topic outside of the nintex forum.

So, I hope it's useful!

Enjoy.
