Applies to version: 2024 R1 and above; author: Łukasz Chechelski   Introduction   The Public Forms mechanism is an interesting solution that allows you to create external forms whose main advantage is anonymity. The site built in this way communicates with WEBCON BPS via the REST standard, creating new instances in specific processes. It is important to note that the mechani

Currently our report-menu for some processes is getting longer and longer. One reason for that is the fact, that some people have issues understanding they have to choose a report and can then navigate on the other side of the form by the views we have set up for them. Mostly people who count their daily clicks and tell you to change the system if they have to do 10 more a day, because you have se

Hello, I need to find a way to automatically delete some workflow instances. I know that we can use the Archive workflow instance action, but it doesn't work. In the reports menu, we have a section named "Archive workflow instances queue", I found all my instances there, but I need a way to delete them all automatically

Hi everyone, maybe I have a wrong idea how a multi value picker field is used in filters/groups in reports. Current situation: The picker field will store the selected values in the order they have been chosen. If you use this field as a group, every unique "string" will be used as a group. Example: Workflow instance 1: IT: Research & Development Workflow instance 2: IT: Research

If you save the process in Designer Studio it will get a new version and you have to reload the page. You can no longer execute paths or even save the workflow instance. Whi

Hi all! We have to update some columns in a workflow dependent on other columns from the same workflow item, e.g. WFD_AttDecimal1 = WFD_AttDecimal2 * WFD_AttDecimal3. Sounds trivial, but it isn't, especially in a SaaS system, where 'Run an SQL procedure' is missing. Another approach for us was to use 'Update related workflow instance' action, but this approach obviously leads to nowhere

Hi, I'm creating the workflow for registering agreements with some typical fields: counterparty, agreement no., value, signature date - let's call it Agreement Register (AR). To avoid manually register all necessary data I've also created another workflow (Import Agreements Data) with item list, which is populated using excel file and on entry of default path a subworkflow AR should start using a

Hello, After upgrading to 2023.1.1.89 I'm getting error "Attempting to launch workflow instance for a form type not connected with the current workflow."

Hi everyone, I'm wondering what would be the best approach for the following use case. There may be between 300 and 500 active claim workflow instances. The costs for these claims are tracked in the ERP system. The total of the costs needs to be in the claim, so that it can be used in reports. Challenges: 1. I can only use REST for retrieving the costs 2. The ERP system supports webhooks

Hello everyone I was just wondering about the best way to implement this: We want to build a process (basically it is a research proposal/request process). But we also want to be able to start a new change request for "completed" requests.
