Cześć,
jedyne miejsce w 'Konfiguracji systemu' dotyczące załączników które przychodzi mi do głowy to to miejsce: https://docs.webcon.com/pl/docs/2025R2/Studio/SystemSettings/GlobalParams/SystemSettings_AttachmentsDatabase
natomiast zweryfikowałbym również:
* https://docs.webcon.com/pl/docs/2025R2/Studio/Process/AttachmentAttribute/

Let's say we have following example:
Dictionary: People, Fields: Name, ID
Workflow: Salary Management

On some day HR created a new instance of Salary Management for new employee - John Doe, with ID 17
Few months passes, and John Doe changes last name to Doe-Foo due to getting married.

HR updates ID 17 John Doe in People Dictionary to John Doe-Foo.

Due to the fact how webcon stores the data this change will not affect Salary Management form filled in when John was employed, and on that form there will be still displayed as John Doe, same with reports.

If you have to change the display of picker value - it's not possible without changing the value of the field with new updated value:: John Doe-Foo (manually or with an action).

You could though use calculated columns on reports, or data row field on the form, which will display the data accordingly to what is currently stored under People Dictionary.


Adding to solution by Daniel - if it's necessary that's the way, but if there will be many documents in different processes/applications it might be tedious to catch them all :)

Ohh i see serach in navigation are in right top inplmenentet with SOLR

Hi Arthuzad,

Maks listed the data table/data row documentation which would to create a "calculated column" in the form.

If you really need to update the data, than you could also use the "Update related workflow" action. You can execute a "save" action on another workflow instance with this.
https://docs.webcon.com/docs/2025R1/Studio/Action/Workflow/UpdateParentWorkflow/

We have a similar case, where we need to update data in multiple processes, if the source is updated. This is handled using this action.

Best regards,
Daniel

Witam, Próbując zaznaczyć możliwość edycji załączników w kroku, w którym dotychczas było to odznaczone otrzymuję ostrzeżenie: "Niepoprawna konfiguracja listy załączników. Należy w konfiguracji systemu wybrać odpowiednią listę". Czy ktoś byłby mi w stanie podpowiedzieć, gdzie konkretnie w konfiguracji systemu wybiera się tą listę?

Where is Search in Navigation on webcon 2025?
How to turn on that Search ? in 2025?
Below are pic ver. 2022 and 2025

in this case i would need both, if the fields is updated, i want to see updated value on the report and also in the form. i get it for the calculated column in the report, but i'm not sure what you mean when it needs to impact the field in the form.

Hi Arthuzad,
This one is let's say tricky, and is directly connected with how WEBCON stores data in database.

Choose fields, are stored in database in WFElements as id#name in one cell, so the name being displayed is read from the value that have been saved on a specific element.
Changing the "name" in dictionary doesn't trigger any automatic updates in places, where the name have been already used (most of the time i'd say it's good behavior, as it doesn't impact history).

If you'd like to display 'current' data, then you could use calculated columns on a report, which will JOIN on the id of dictionary with id stored in specific Choose field, and return specific column.

If you'd like to achieve the same but on the form instead of report, then - use data row, or data table fields:
* https://docs.webcon.com/docs/2025R2/Studio/Process/Attribute/DataPres/SelectField
* https://docs.webcon.com/docs/2025R2/Studio/Process/Attribute/DataPres/Sql_grid/

hey, so i got a question about updating related fields in two separate reports. We have report with names of the people and other report which has all of those people in a field person. Now, if i change first name or last name in the first report, to also update itself in the latter report.

Hi,
if you are running on 2025 R2, then you could define a custom API endpoint within designer studio - as body pass in ID of the instance and/or path id, and as the automation you
can use Move Workflow (SQL) action. No ideas in previous versions though.
