Hi, I have such a problem. At some step in the process, there is required approval for costs. The task is signed to first person, but he is on sick leave, thus the task is assigned to a substituter, but a substituter is also on sick leave, so the task should be assigned to substituter of substituter, but isn't. BPS version 2021.1.4.118

Hi community! We have 2 Webcon farms (DEV/TEST/PROD) with the same application (6 servers in total). Our deployment chain is from Farm1 (DEV), which is the application source to all other servers. We have defined a global constant for Portal Url, which is used in whole application (for redirects and so on). This scenario works fine on one farm. Is it possible to find out within a businessrule (or maybe SDK rule), which BaseUrl current system has? I do not find anything in c (...)

Hi, I downloaded the Teams add-in installer from our Webcon portal and uploaded the custom app as per instructions here https://howto.webcon.com/installation-of-webcon-bps-add-in-form-ms-teams/ However, when I attempt to open the app or add it as a tab to a channel, everything is blank (see screenshot). Any ideas? Best regards

Hello, I'm continuing my development of a form containing item list. The case is as follows: I add an item to the item list and after it is added (upon ending the edition in one item edit mode) I want to automatically add an item that is dependant (dependancy is held in one of the items list fields of the idem being added). However if edition is canceled nothing should happen. So, what approach would you advise? I've tried using an external variable to hold the ID of the item that needs (...)

Hello everyone, on one environment we are running WEBCON 2020 with SharePoint Full-Trust installation. Now this environment is to be updated. In WEBCON 2022 the SharePoint Full-Trust installation is not supported any longer. So there is the question: How do I proceed, to use WEBCON 2022 with this current installation? Is there a technical solution from you guys (webcon), to "update" the Full-Trust installation to a standalone? Or is it necessary to set up a complete new installation wit (...)

Is there a documentation for Translator tool? When I am setting up new language in the Suggested translation, i need to understand how it impacts the system.

We have license for only 2 webcon processes and purchased now another license. How can I add that new license?

I have a workflow that increments based on FY (ours is not the same as calendar year). ie FF22-#### With the new year, I see that the instance numbering wasn't setup quite right. The userbase needs the instance numbering to reflect FFFY-####, the #### increments throughout the year. Since the app was using "Instance numbering per year", as soon as we rolled into 2022 it reset from 42 to 0. I need to find an option that just continues to increment for our FY, or at the very least can I define (...)

Hello everyone. I continue developing my module with apartment reservations and came across another problem. Dictionary contains apartments and parking places (together, as most parameters are common for both types). Some apartments have dedicated parking place (this fact is stored in one of parameters of apartments). When I select an apartment that has dedicated parking place I manage to check and store the ID of the assigned parking place in a technical variable on the fly (as form rule invoke (...)

I know that in webcon report there is only possibility to show only one "Item list" attribute but is there any possibility to create some technical data table or atribute to show more than one list? Or maybe you can give some example of SQL function which select more than one "Item list". Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi, After upgrading from 2021.1.3.205 to ver. 2021.1.4.84, I can see a very big performance drop for reports that have more than 250k items. Very often they don't even load at all. All indexes and sql statistics are rebuilt. After verification, I found the reason, it is the column 'assigned to'. After removing this column from the report, all large reports are loaded almost immediately (even those with many calculated columns). It looks like in this version the query has been changed to the WFEl (...)

I hope I can explain it right... I'm trying to add an autocomplete column to an item list that is filtered on a multi select column. So I have a projects dictionary, and want to select a project from that. Each project can have multiple employees working on it, therefore I created a multi-user selection in the project dictionary. When selecting the project I want to get all projects where my account is in the employees field, like: Filter: [Employee(Login)] is in [Data source columns(Employees) (...)

Hello everyone, because the first installation attempt did not work out (login problems webcon designer studio), i uninstalled webcon and sharepoint. I installed Sharepoint 2016 again and also the latest security update. Now the installer does not recognize the sharepoint web parts (see picture below). Did anybody have this issue yet? Do you have any idea how to fix this? Is it ok, to skip this? Kind regards, Christian

Hi everyone, i installed WEBCON WITHOUT integrated authentication. Unfortunately, i skipped the step, where you have the option to setup a Windows User (see pic 1) - the manual said, it is not required (even though recommended). Now i cannot log into the Webcon BPS Designer Studio. Do you have an idea, how to setup the Windows authentication Connection to the Database afterwards - without integrated authentication? Thank you for your help.

Hello Everyone, How Can I change sub-workflows status depending on some condidions? I want to close rest of sub-workflows(automatically) when for instance: 2 users accepted.

Hi there, I have a data source of MSSQL type, that populates a data table. The SQL query is quite complicated but it works. However it currently takes about 33 seconds to complete. Thus when executed in SQL Studio, I get the output table. When I try to execute it in a bps process, it fails. When testing in Designer Studio, I get an error of execution timeout. Is there a way to tell Webcon to allow a little more time for this sql? Michal

Hello, I have a field for "internal comments" and I want three user groups to be able to edit this field on every step of the workflow. On steps where they have the general right to edit, this works, but not on other steps. To clarify, on those other steps, they should NOT have rights to edit the step, ONLY to edit this one multiline text field. And any other group should NOT have the right to edit this field. Only for internal user groups. I already tried in the editability tab to make thi (...)

Hi everyone, this post is for the few how develop processes OnPrem and import them to an WEBCON Apps instance. All others can ignore this post. I just encountered a little problem. If you have business rules with multiple parameters you need to verify that the parameters have been imported in the correct order. It may happen that this is not the case, (1) in the screenshot. Otherwise the values may be assigned to the wrong parameter (2). Best regards, Daniel
