hi!
There are a lot of info on Internet about auto populating the InfoPath form with information pulled via SOAP Web Server from UserProfileServices. Unfortunately I get error message:
An error occurred accessing a data source.

An entry has been added to the Windows event log of the server.

Log ID:5566

Looking for a solution I found that I need to change data in Administration of the site which I can't do.

I tried to auto populate user information (Name, phone, email) by using User Information List from my site. It does populate my info in the NewForm but everybody else gets my name too instead of theirs.

Why does it happens?

I am very new to InfoPath Designer (2013) but am learning reasonably well.

I am designing a fairly simple form where I have a few text box entries and then 12 Yes / No questions; fields named Q1 to Q12 in a Group called Questions.

For those in the UK, it is an IR335 Status check for determining whether an individual is an Employee or can be hired as a Sub Contractor.

As a rule of thumb, if the result of the 12 questions is 3 or more Yes answers the individual should be classed as an Employee.

I have already encountered Rules with Validation and Actions. For example, if one of the fields is set to "No" I can make the Q1 to Q12 compulsory.

I have changed the Properties of the Yes / No option buttons such that a Yes answer sets the field value to 1 and a No answer sets the field value to 0. Therefore evaluating the sum of fields Q1 to Q12 or counting the fields where value is 1 would give a decision; if sum or count is greater than 2 then Status should be employed.

Below the questions I have a dropdown field to set the Status with values "Employed" or "Self Employed".

Is it possible to set the default value of this field based on the result of Q1 to Q12 evaluation? The dropdown Properties allow a default value but don't allow for it to be Formula driven, unlike a text box which can be Formula driven.

I have created a text box with Formula driven result of Sum(Questions) but the result of that is "NaN".

In addition, I am anticipating I would need a …

I have a requirement from user to create a button for print on display form.
Versions Sharepoint 2010 , Infopath 2010.
Do we have out of box feature in infopath 2010 to add print button?
I have tried using content editor web part to add print(). It looks user is not happy with it. Is there a better way of adding print button on the display form?

Using a web part query filter and a connected InfoPath webpart/form, I can pass a query param from the URL to the web part.  There are two problems from there:
1) When the form first loads, it doesn't show the query param value.  If I add a button to the form and after the form appears click the button, I can then see the value does get passed in.  I can't use a button for this and why doesn't it appear when the form load rule says to show it?
2) On that form I have a dropdown tied to a SharePoint listbox with the display equal to title and value = ID.  How can I have the dropdown on load show one of it's items as the selected one?

I would like to redirect InfoPath to a menu page on my SharePoint Site.  At the moment, when it closes it goes to the list which can be okay, but not in my case.

I notice the the URL has a List=some string of values and then the ID=some number for the list item if it's an edit,  and some other parameter that looks sort of like a link to where to go after the form closes.

Any help on this would be appreciated.

I created an InfoPath 2013 Form and it is located in a SharePoint 2013 Document Library. This is an HR form for employee change request. The idea is to have the employee go to the doc library and select new document, then complete the form, but instead of submitting the form to the same library, which is the way it is setup right now, rather I need to configure this form to submit to a different document library. The other library will be secure, so that an employee cannot view sensitive data. I looked at other knowledge based articles but could not find a solution for particular for this issue, unless I missed something.

The first document library is open to all employees, but the submit to document library is secure, only for HR use. Is it possible to accomplish this type of configuration in either InfoPath or Sharepoint?

FYI - I'm a beginner with InfoPath and SharePoint.

I have been trying to build some basic info path forms in SharePoint 2016.  So far no luck.  I tried one with a custom content type and that failed to publish and then an even simpler form that has a text field and not much else.  It failed too.  

Here is the screen shot showing the InfoPath "USELESS" message on attempting to publish;


Please advise.

Hi guys,
I'm trying to use sharepoint online to host our company job applications, The  data I have is structured in 5 different lists:

Main - This is the main body of the application and it holds personal information and stuff that only needs entering once
Then I have 4 tables which I want as repeating sections
Education
Employment
Training
References
As these tables will probably contain more than 1 record I want the person filling in the form to be able to enter multiple schools or employers for instance.

What's the best way to achieve this? I have a form in info path for the main list but I can't see how to add the references to the other lists.

I need to pass the main list ID Value to the other tables as ApplicantID so that I'll be able to recall the data later (I was thinking I could recall all entries matching the applicant ID and the multiple entries from the tables would match the main form)

If anyone has any better ways of the doing this I'm happy to hear them

Regards
Jamie

Can anyone recommend a good link that shows how to submit an InfoPath Form via Email please?

I need to disable few fields which contains values month wise. so all the past months are to be disabled for editing. Also the current month should be available for editing till 22nd of the month, after that it becomes disable

I have created a single InfoPath form and I would like to know the best way I can make this accessible on-line for multiple users to complete.

I will also need to import the data from the form into an Access Database.

Can anyone suggest the best option?

We are moving a number of forms we have in Excel documents to our Office365 SharePoint Team site.  We are doing this by adding a Custom List app to our site and then clicking the Design Using InfoPath 2013 button.

Some of our forms have areas where users can specify lists of entries.  In the attached image of an existing form the user can specify one or more Fees and specify the status of relevant document types.   Not shown is the use should be able to provide a list of up to ten document numbers that were used for testing.

Is there a way to have the form allow a user to add and remove entries.  I think what we may need is a Repeating Table.

Hi,
I need to copy several rows of a table that are group as a one area and repeat it many times on the same table.  After I copy this and populate them then I go back and change some of the text of each group and bind each control to a data field on the right.  However, I go to end of the table, insert several returns then copy a group(which consist of 3 rows and each row has different merged cells).  I paste and it shows up as 3 rows with just some of the text but I lost all format and controls.  Any way to fix this?  Thank you.
