What does the X icon mean on an intermediate step in the workflow diagram?
Hello everyone, over the past few months, I have been experiencing an issue where my browser session in WEBCON expires frequently. This behavior is also observed by my customers. Notably, the logout occurs even after relatively short periods of inactivity. Has anyone encountered a similar issue or identified potential causes for this behavior? I would appreciate any recommendations on how to resolve or mitigate it. Thank you in advance for your support.
Hi, if one adds groups in the user privileges of a report users not being member of the configured group(s) get those restricted reports displayed in the suggested reports widget of dashboards in the portal. The report content shows no data - as expected. May this be a bug due to a missing permission check? Kind regards Sébastien
Hello, is it possible to prevent emails from being sent in the dev environment without having to disable all actions that involve sending them?
I have a single line text field as a technical field that I set to describe specific status e.g. Approved / Denied English is set as the original language within the business rule that sets me the field along the way. I use this technical field within our dashboards but it always defaults to English no matter what I do,. The path gets triggered by a subworkflow. If I the author myself go on the path the translation is ok but if I manage it through the sub-worflow from a superior for exampl (...)
Hi everyone, I’m running into an issue with calculated columns in a WEBCON BPS report and I’m wondering if anyone has faced something similar or found a workaround. I have a report based on some workflow, and I’m trying to add a calculated column that returns the value related to a given element in report. The value is stored in a table located on another SQL Server (linked server), which is already connected to the WEBCON database. I tried using a query like this: SELECT Value FROM [serv (...)
Hi, I'm experiencing an issue with selection attributes. If a user types a value but doesn’t explicitly confirm the selection, the value still appears in the field after saving the form or moving along the workflow path. However, the problem is that the value change rules are not triggered in this case, which often results in the form not being populated correctly. Has anyone encountered this behavior or found a reliable workaround?
Hi, is this license(WEBCON BPS Process CAL) still available for purchase? We are using WEBCON 2025 R2 with a perpetual license. We already have one license of this type installed and would like to buy another one. It is possible to combine perpetual licenses with subscription-based licenses within the same WEBCON BPS environment. For example, in the new process, I would like to use my current perpetual BPS CALs for internal users and Single‑Use Access Licenses for external users.
After upgrading our environment to WEBCON BPS 2026, the “Edit file” functionality in document libraries no longer works as expected. Before the upgrade: • Clicking “Edit file” on a Word document from the document library opened the file directly in Microsoft Word for editing without issues. After the upgrade: • Clicking “Edit file” opens Microsoft Word. • Entering the correct credentials does not authenticate successfully. • Instead, the same login window reappears in a loop. Ad (...)
Hello everyone, Do you know of any way to detect and read the contents of all QR codes while processing a PDF attachment, when the file consists of multiple merged pages and each page is marked with a separate QR code? When using the standard WEBCON mechanism for reading QR codes, it always returns the content of only the first QR code found in the document, regardless of how many pages or codes the PDF contains. Has anyone faced a similar scenario or found a workaround or alternative a (...)
Hey everyone, I've got a request from my business to automatically split the tasks between people in the department. Did anyone here had a chance to implement something like round robin / load balance of tasks assigned to people from a group? The idea would be one person get's the task assigned, but the remaining part of the team will just get edit rights to the document. I don't recall any built-in solutions, but before creating one, maybe somebody already faced this challenge :)
Hello! We've had this error showing up while doing random tasks, so far we have encountered it when trying to import an app, and when trying to chose an AD group. However the description is very vague, so we are not able to pinpoint the error, has someone experienced something like it?
Hi, I noticed that after migrating BPS groups with a package, the group owner field appeared blank (grayed out). I click "Add" and can specify a person, but this grayed-out line needs to be manually deleted. Furthermore, if I didn't set a group owner, the save failed (the system cleared the group name and ID) and nothing happened. After a while, I accessed these BPS groups, and the group owner field cleared out and the field is blank. Do you have this problem too? I have version 202 (...)
Hi, having e.g. local AD and Entra ID enabled as authentication providers a user gets a page with the WEBCON logo and two buttons for Local AD oder Entra ID login. Is there any way to force always Entra ID login? And if yes, is there any way to force this login page if e.g. an admin user (not existing in Entra ID) wants to use local AD as authentication provider? This could be e.g. a query parameter: ?forceLoginPage=true. Kind regards Sébastien
Hi everyone! Does anyone know how to register for the freemium or 90 day trial licensing? Several of the links I've found are not available anymore, and I've used this contact form several times but I never got an answer
Hi, imagine a workflow with on start (cyclical) automation that starts the workflow itself. This can be a sync of an external data source with a dictionary. If the sync returns an error a step for error validation gets entered. Having this on dev, test and prod would then generate a task on all environments. I expect to have a task creation only in production environment if the process already exists on prod. If the process only exists on test and dev I expect the task creation only on tes (...)
Hi everyone, I have a case with WEBCON BPS 2026 and a REST integration. I need to call an external API that requires a client certificate (PFX / mTLS). Everything works in Postman, but in WEBCON I can’t find how to pass the certificate. Currently I’m using: -REST Web Service connection -Authentication: Anonymous -HTTPS + JSON I don’t see any option for: -client certificate - selecting from Windows store -or using a thumbprint Has anyone faced something similar? Does WEBCON supp (...)
Hi, I got this error message: "The current process has used all of its system allowance of handles for Window Manager objects." I've been in an automation with for each and the configuration of an action in it. I had to terminate the Designer Studio (2025.2.1.179) through the Windows Task Manager. It's the first time that I got this error and couldn't reproduce it yet. Kind regards Sébastien
Hi, I've suffixed processes that contain a workflow with a cyclical on start global action with " [JOB]". To get an overview of all process planed as a job I've created a dictionary report in a dashboard and want to filter the column "Process Name" with a default filter. Now I have 3 different behaviors: - Using "[JOB]" returns all processes in the list without any filtering > This seems to be a bug imho. (screenshot) - Using "JOB" returns only the expected processes containing JOB > Thi (...)
Hi, I've also noticed that BPS data sources that reference item lists are also returning deleted records. Are you experiencing this issue as well? I have version 2026.1.4.131 installed. Regards, D.
