Hi Marza, you can take a look at these table in the BPS Config database dbo.[UsersCals] dbo.[SingleSolutionCals] The last one is only relevant, if you have "Single solution access". Depending on your environment you may not be able to execute the sql query with the "Current BPS Database

Hi, is the virtual machine using SQL Express? I think we had this issue and it was related to the default value of the auto_close option of SQL Server Express. Disabling the Auto_Close helped us. https://blog.sqlauthority.com/2016/09/22/sql-server-set-auto_close-database-option-off-better-per

Issues with Word template?
14.12.2023 20:37

Hi, this is really a strange issue. Could you check what happens, if you generate a word print out via the admin mode? Another thing you can verify is whether there are really no values in the word document. The "placeholders" are fields in word which references document properties. You

Would you really have one process which uses Polish for default names while others use English or German? :) We are using English as default and are providing the German translation. But this is probably due to the fact that we are partner. In the end I wouldn't care, it's just something whic

Hi, if a data row/ data table is based on a BPS internal view to configure, whether the names/translations of the columns should be used. The default value should be true. It's just a waste of time to not only provide the translations the first time but also to update these when the name/tr

Hi, I think it would be beneficial if we could have a place in the global configuration where we can define custom default values for the steps and paths of dictionaries / document templates. For example I always rename the "Dictionary step" to "Entry". Of course, I also define translations f

HTML field - StartElement

Hi, if you aren't familiar with javascript the easiest way would be to: 1. Create a menu action using with the "start new hyperlink" function and define the parameters 2. Create the html field and use the InvokeMenuAction function. Start workflow 3. Hide the menu action in the behavior tab d

Hi AndreeLi, the one for returning a comma separated string with all ids is called: ClearWFElemIDAdv You can take a look at the content database Programmability\Functions\Scalar-valued functions Best regards, Daniel

Item list column label
06.12.2023 21:38

Hi Dariusz, if you want to apply this styling only to a single item list or even one column in this, I would add an html field using this css: #SubElems_#{WFCON:384}# th { text-align:center; } #SubElems_#{WFCON:384}# th[data-key="#{SFLD:36}#_#{DCN:36}#"] { text-align:left; }

Hi Maks, edit: I was suggesting the same. :) Best regards, Daniel

Hi Oliver, as far as I can guess, you are using a form rule which doesn't support this. Only business rules can access the data source. If necessary you could also call a business rule from a form rule. I hope you don't get confused with the terms. I have never used the German interface, so

Hi Oliver, yes, you can access a data source in a business rule. For this you can select the data source from the Objects tab and then filter it / compare the result. I had a similar case: I needed to upload a new version of the document but it was necessary to delete the old document to prev

Workflow preview language
04.12.2023 15:42

Hi, unfortunately it the labels in the preview use the default value. This is true for the old BPS versions until BPS 2022 in which you had to generate the preview yourself and even for the new BPS 2023 versions. Where the preview is automatically generated. The translations are not taken into

Hi Michal, In my opinion you can just pass an own uxContext object as a parameter. 1) I created a form rule 2) Which executes a business rule 3) I invoked the form rule via a button in an html field. The debugger; statement allowed me to break the code execution when the developer tools are

Hi Nik, I did some test and as far as I can tell the following applies. - If you use a SQL data source, than only the connection is used. The SQL query of the data source is ignored. - If you use a BPS internal view, the SQL query in the action is ignored. So your only approach would be to r

The only reason for naming /displaying the automation at all is the documentation. Would be nice, if the automation uses the same name as the parent object, renaming the parent object would also update the automation. Ok, this could only happen for paths, but I was lazy enough to forget about it

Hi, it would really be great, if we could trigger the documentation generation for a whole application. It doesn't have to be a single document. It would be fine if this would just create a zip package. In this zip packages there would be the default documents for all processes. This would inclu

Hi, the SMS API may be the easiest one to use, but there's also a nice post for an own SMS gateway approach on this blog: https://alterpaths.com/integrating-wammu-gammu-with-webcon-bps/ The blog itself is no longer actively maintained. Best regards, Daniel

Upload to Sharepoint

Hi Andree Li, I used the REST API to upload documents as I couldn't use the SharePoint connection for authentication. Search for these values the page for to see examples: The following example shows how to create a folder. The following example shows how to create a large binary file. htt

Hi Adam, for me it is working as expected. I've used a choose field and an integer field to test both scenarios and bot worked fine. When I execute the action the parent workflow of the current workflow is changed. Respectively the current workflow is listed as a sub workflow in the parent wo
