I'm not a DB Admin and I'm more interested in the available function but it seems that the compatibility level also effects the performance as of SQL Server 2014 (120). https://www.sqlskills.com/blogs/glenn/database-compatibility-level-in-sql-server/ Migrating an existing database to a new server m

Hi Tim, the short answer is no. Webcon BPS can't authenticate users. You need to have use some authentication provider. The BPS user is "just" a row in the database it's an internal user. The data of the authenticated user will be used to identify the internal user. If there's no internal user eve

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

Hi Mateusz, you are right, this error message may refer to MFA. Isn't there any chance to create a service account without MFA and without chaning passwords? The IT could even set the password inside Designer Studio, if they want to make sure no one knows it. I have one other "crazy" workarou

Hm maybe this could be solved if we could create reports based on data sources. There's already an option to create reports for data sources of type dictionary/documents. Of course, a feature like this can not be guaranteed to perform well in all conditions but it would help. This isn't an option fo

Hi Martin, don't get me wrong I just want to make sure that I've explained myself. 1. You are probably using a account for the RDP connection like BPS_Admin. So you would need to choose the "run as" option to execute Postman as BPS_Service or BPS_AppPool. If you did I have no further idea. 2/3. In

Hi Martin, I was fortunate and had to deal with proxies only once. :) Maybe some of these ideas may help you: 1. Verify that the Workflow Service User and Application Pool user running the Portal can access the internet or if the proxy server requires some kind of authentication. You could also exe

Hi Martin, depending on the amount of data you could (probably) add a calculated column and prepare the external data in html to display more than one column. But you dismissed this anyway and I wouldn't use this approach either. As far as I know there's no suitable workaround, especially if you w

Hi Georg, I'm glad I could help. Maybe you can provide some feedback regarding the performance. I tested it last year and switched after a short time "classic" version working on the server. I wasn't patient enough to wait for the save and load times. I believe that these were quit high because th

Hi, I'm not sure that I understand you so my answer may be off. Enum should be used if you want to select one option of a predefined set of options like User or Group. If I remember correctly the Item List type allows the user to choose one of the existing item lists. So you could use this to s

Hi Georg, these may be stupid question but I just want to make sure that I understand what you have already verified: 1. You are using the designer from the installation file on your client and not the one provided as a downloaded option from the portal? The later one uses the REST Api and is the r

Hi Damian, the last time I asked, I think it was in 2019, there was no intention for providing such an option out of the box. One option would be to use a free JS gantt library like: https://github.com/frappe/gantt Here you would need to provide the gantt data as a JSON. You would need to prepa

Yeah, the new version is released and based on the change log, these are my three highlights: 4.11. Using variables representing configuration objects’ ID Item list improvements. Ok, this is cheating but there are a lot of useful changes :) 4.17. Report views in the navigation menu I didn't list t

Hi Georg, for now there's no option you can achieve this. You need to set up the URLs for the production environment. Let's hope the next version has an improvement for this. For example, that you can use GUIDs instead of only integer IDs in the URL of the portal. Example: /db/1/app/D1245341-6783-.

Hi Slavko, I haven't tested these ideas, but they could work: Preventing updating: You could set up an editable restriction on each column in which you check whether there's a child row in the other item list. Preventing deletion: I would disable the delete button in general. Instead you could a

Hi Georg, I think a picture would help in this case. I assume that you have a start element on the dashboard but not all users have permissions to start the workflow. Therefore the start element is not displayed but a placeholder instead. As far as a I know there's no option to access the css in

Thanks, for checking this and writing even an own post about it. :) It's new for me, that you can write something else than pure select statements in the expression editor. Off topic: This could be useful if you are doing presentations or recordings where you want to highlight something: https://d

I have a few suggestions for improving the single row editing experience: 1. Adding a next/previous button to the modal dialog so that you can easily go through the rows. 2. No fixed height for modal dialog. The max height of 400px makes it quite hard use the modal dialog. It would be better if th

There's currently not an easy way to identify versions which have been created in administration mode. The attached picture shows two changes. Both were done using the admin mode. Unfortunately this is not visible for the second one where the admin added a comment. Maybe a new column could be adde

Has anyone used the advanced settings or verification path option of the step "Wait for sub-workflows"? Advanced settings The default options are limited to all positive or one negative. So the parent workflow would continue as soon as the first sub workflow has been finished negativ. In my case it
