I'm banging my head on the wall... I'm sure there is an easy solution but can't figure it out at the moment. I would like to prevent users entering duplicate values in a field when starting a new workflow and I don't want to use the Instance Number to achieve that. I have a process ABC with field WFD_AttText1. How do I prevent the user to enter a value that already exists in the field WFD_AttText1 of the process ABC? Thank you.

Hi, Is there a way of installing on the same machine multiple versions of the designer studio? That would be great when working with remote/local designer and when your customers have different versions of WEBCON. Thanks!

Hello everyone, did someone update the database compatibility level from the default 'SQL Server 2008 (100)' to a newer one and can share their experience? I really would like to make use of those "new" functions instead of using hard to read workarounds. Best regards, Daniel

Hello All, Big project regarding to reservation system is ahead of us. And one of the very useful feature will be gantt chart on the form and as web part as well. So is there any plans to implement Gantt charts in next Webcon BPS versions? Or maybe there is posibility to prepare Gant Chart in HTML attribute? I mean off course Gantt charts in Modern Webcon BPS, because we wouldlike avoid to built new app on classic SharePoint, where gantt charts are available.

Hi, I'm wondering if I missed something or there's another/bezter way to add a required boolean field. My current approach is to define a choice field with true/false options, set a label "select an option" and mark this field as required. I'm using global constants for the IDs so that I can check the value of necessary. I don't use the boolean field itself because an unchecked boolean field would fulfill the required definition too, if I remember correctly, Is there a better way? It j (...)

Hi, I have a strange situation. One of our users, who is a business administrator on a workflow, is suddenly getting an error when attempting to view workflow elements. The error displayed is "Execution timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding." This is only happening to this specific user. Where should I even go to look for any detailed troubleshooting? Thanks

Good morning, After updating BPS to version 2023.1.3.240, we encountered an issue in our production environment. The problem concerns an SDK add-in that enables sending XML data to MSMQ queues. We needed to update this add-in because, starting with version 2023, the methods were changed to asynchronous. The add-in relies on an external DLL file, Experimental.System.Messaging. To include this DLL in the add-in, I had to sign it with a strong key. According to BPS, everything went smoothl (...)

Hey I have two choice fields Product Group and Product Category (groups are within the categories) so I have created filter that when somebody selects certain category they can only see in choice field product group, groups that are within the specified product category based on dictionary. However now is coming the problem that sometimes business would like to select two or more categories and when they do so the product group is empty. Is there a smart solution for that? Maybe in case of s (...)

Hi everyone, I've noticed a strange rendering / displaying of data tables. I attached a screenshot: 1) This is how the data table looks like if I refresh the browser 2) The mouse overs work fine 3) "Dragging" the data table "displays" the table correctly. 3) can also be achieved when the data table is in a tab and you switch tabs. The data table is displayed correctly when getting back. We haven't modified the process in months so my best bet is that this has something to do with t (...)

Hi there I've got a concurrency error when I tried to import my application from test environment to either developer or production one. Does anyone know how can I fix it?

I am trying to create Webcon SDK Plugin that will update multiple instances( update fields of different instances ) but I have not figured out how to get instance by a number.

How do I build a yes/no toggle (or other html control with green and red colours) that, when the FullName text field is changed, the toggle changes to yes if such a FullName already exists, or stays at no if there is no FullName yet.

Hi all! We would like to add a datasource from REST API. Datasource method is POST, since we have many parameters. We need this datasource in different workflows and parameters are dependent on values entered in current form (different fields in different workflows) and also should be fetched from database from another workflow. As I can see there is no way to use current form field values (in JSON mode, not JSON grid) in request body of datasource consuming a REST API. Is there a (...)

I have a process that creates 10 reports each month. After creating the initial reports, I would like to clone them automatically at the end of the month, only changing the reporting month. The user (author) updates the data and submits it for verification. I proposed the following procedure: 1. I created a BPS source that lists all 10 reports from the last month. 2. The BPS data source has columns including: ID, Signature, Author, Company, etc. 3. In the cyclic action, I added automation (...)

Hello :) I have a process where I generate an XML file. I would now like to extract this XML file in another process with a sustainable solution. My XML file contains multiple fields as well as lists. What would be the easiest way to achieve this using WEBCON? I was thinking of writing the content of my XML file into a technical multiline text field via SQL and then extracting it with the "Change Values" action. The lists would be handled with the "Update Item List" action. Is this possible? T (...)

Hi. Following Scenario: (Webcon Version 2021.1.5.367) I have an items list with (amongst others) a column for (multiple) attachments. Out of each line of the items list I start a workflow instance of another (start a subworkflow SQL) workflow and the attachments shall be copied to the new instance. Idea 1: I check "copy attachments" in the "Start a subworkflow". Issue: all attachments of the parent workflow are copied Idea 2: I create the instances and create an action template to (...)

Hey, I was wondering if there is a possibility to change ordering of form menu buttons(screenshot below). I've already tried doing so, in the application's "Standard areas" panel, but it could not be modified that way.

Hi guys and girls has any one of you encountered an issue when trying to edit attachments that are larger than 28 MB? I have a process where a detailed picture documentation is provided using wordfiles which can get very large very quickly. Today for the first time ever i have encountered an error saying "Attachments larger than 28 MB cannot be edited". Has anyone an idea how to get around this limit without having to download the attachment an reupload it after editing?
