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

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.

I was wondering if you knew how many Bytes a repeating table would take up if it was promoted to a column?

I have created a 2013 workflow that  kicks in when a new InfoPath form is created (I'll call this the "Main Workflow"). It updates the item on the list and creates 4 child sub-forms on 4 other lists (each of these 4 forms has a 2010 workflow assigned to them).

What I want to accomplish is to pause the "Main Workflow" until a field changes on one of the child sub-forms and then once the field value on an item in the child form has changed continue to the next stage.
In other words list A has a 2013 workflow that needs to pause until a field's value on list B changes. I was thinking about creating a flag with a Yes/No value set to No by default on list B and I would like to pass the Yes value to a specific list item in list A or have another flag on list A that changes according to the approval status of the item in list B.

Any suggestions on an easier approach to accomplish this?

Thanks!

On Office 365 Sharepoint using Sharepoint Designer 2013 I created an approval workflow by copying and modifying the  Globally Reusable Workflow "Approval - Sharepoint 2010". The workflow works as expected.

As a next step I would like to edit the Approval Workflow Task form to remove the "Cancel", and "Request Change" and "Reassign task" buttons.

I opened the form from within Sharepoint Designer 2013 which opens in Infopath 2013, but even if I make no changes, I am unable to publish as it errors with "An unknown error has occurred. The form template has been published to the server, but it can only be opened in InfoPath Filler"

When the form is open in InfoPath 2013, if I click on File, the Design Checker shows "Designing for: Workflow Form", where I think it should be showing "Designing for: Web Browser Form".

If I open Design Checker and go to Compatibility, it shows the Form type as Workflow Form, but the dropdown is greyed out...

Am I flogging a dead horse, or is there a solution ?

Good evening, i am working on this small project..its an info path form linked to a sharepoint library...the question is if there is any option where i can force the person submitting the data in the form to print the it before submitting..or in other way to make the printing screen just pop-up automatically after the person presses the submit button thus the form wouldn't submit unless it gets printed?

I have a database extracted from an old Sharepoint Library in the form of a CSV file. That CSV file contains 400+ pre-filled infopath forms. I want to convert this data into pre-filled forms, and then load them into a SharePoint Library.  

I’m searching for a script that will create all filled InfoPath forms. The script will take a CSV file and create XML files (InfoPath) in the new library.

I must figure out how I can generate 400+ of these forms in the new library . is this something you can help with?
