My application receives data from an API and populates an Item list with the data. One of my columns (Sales Area) got populated with more than 1000 characters which caused an error upon human intervention.

I tried removing the excess data but only manage to remove the error at the field level, but cannot remove the error at the item list level.

This validation error prevent the save of the data or to push the request forward.

Please advise on how i can fix this issue.

Thank you,

Hi Hubert,

this is indeed a good idea to add folders also for mass actions in reports. You should post this as user voice.

A JS snippet can‘t be included to a report and you would need an individual configuration logic for the grouping folders for each report. A JS snippet could be added if the reports are inside a dashboard.

The smarter navigation now supports even subfolders: https://youtu.be/MK0CBg45RCM

Fingers crossed for (sub)folder support in other places.

Kind regards

Hi,
I'm updating a WEBCON BPS environment to version 2026.2.1.62. I no longer have the password for the solr administrative user, so following the recommended procedure I:

Made a backup of the BPS_Activities collection.
Completely uninstalled the WEBCON BPS Search Server component.
Started the update with the new installer, and in the "Choose components" step I set WEBCON BPS Search Server to "Install" (fresh installation), while the remaining components are set to "Update" — see screenshot "image1.png"

Despite this, when I reach the "Search Server database verification" step, the installer still asks me to provide the solr admin login and password ("required to migrate the Search Server database")
I've also confirmed that C:\Program Files\WEBCON\WEBCON BPS Search Server is empty after the uninstall, so no leftover files exist there.
My questions:

Could this be caused by a leftover Search Server registration in the BPS_Config database from the previous installation, even though the component itself and its files were removed?
Is there a supported way (via installer's System Management Tools, or otherwise) to clear/reset this old registration before retrying, without manually editing the configuration database?

Any guidance would be appreciated — happy to provide more details/logs if needed.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your replay Sébastien. Your solution seems legit and cover my needs 😊
However I’m curious why we have a built-in feature to simple close all users’ tasks and there is no such option for single task. I would really appreciate any insight about this.

Hi Damian,

I doubt that you will get a really good answer for this, why it has been implemented this way as it is. The decision will probably date back more than 10 years. :)

As far as I can tell the use case for this option is, that you want to move the workflow instance to another step. Depending on the configuration, this will require that some / all tasks have been completed. In addition, there's the option that a path will be mark all other tasks as completed/cancelled. If you take this into account with the use case, that an administrator needs to move a workflow instance, completing all tasks would be the least annoying version, one click vs. 2/3/10, which works in all cases.

On the other hand, it caused less effort in terms of implementation and test then individual task completion. :)

Best regards,
Daniel
