Referencing also to: https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/8245 We are integrating WEBCON BPS with APIs that follow RFC 6749 OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework and explicitly support the Resource Owner Password Credentials Grant (grant_type=password). These APIs (in our case: core banking / backend systems) require both: client authentication (client_id / client_secret via Basic Auth) and user authentication (username / password in the token request) Example token request: POS (...)

Hi, I suggest to add a category „Dashboard“ as category in the forum. Kind regards Sébastien

I need a tool to transfer permissions for requests to a new user. The substitution tool works similarly, but it can only be used temporarily. It would be helpful to specify the person or ID from which the permissions are copied, the recipient, and a checkbox to indicate whether the permissions should be revoked from the person they are copied from.

When migrating applications from SharePoint to WEBCON, the users are used to search documents only. This isn't a problem at all with WEBCON as long an element only has one document attached. If there are more attachments, the current full text search returns the element with all its documents even if only one document matches the search term. For Records Management processes, where we can have several dozens of documents, it is impossible to find the right document. WEBCON does store attach (...)

Currently MS Powerpoint presentations are not searchable. I'm sure, our client would not be the only one who would appreciate if WEBCON would make PowerPoint presetations searchable like the other Office documents.

Hi, I suggest to fix the field column in the field matrix so that it gets always displayed even when horizontal scrolling is needed/used. Right now the field column disappears if the scrollbar gets moved to the right side. With many steps one can get lost and select the bad field row. Kind regards Sébastien

Hi, I suggest to add a custom CSS box in the configuration of a report view. One use case is to override the default CSS of tiles. The advanced JSON works like a charm to customize each column. But it’s clearly not possible to customize the outer tile. A simple needed custom CSS would be to create a 4 column design by just setting a tile’s width to 24% instead of default 100% and to hide all column title labels. A supplement would be to add the GUID of the report as attribute in the (...)

Hi, when using global constants in the global email template the reference is done with the IDs instead of the GUID. By this it‘s not possible to just copy & paste the HTML code to other environments without having to replace all occurrences of those references. Therefore I suggest to use GUIDs instead of IDs. Having global business rules for the email template would be great too. Kind regards Sébastien

Currently, when an email is sent to users with different profile languages, WEBCON splits it and sends separate emails per language group. This works fine, but inside the email template there is no variable that tells what language is used for that specific group of recipients. Why it would be useful: Allows dynamic content in emails based on recipient language Makes it easier to build multilingual templates (no need for hardcoding or workarounds) Expected behavior: Add a context variab (...)

Hi, in the field matrix it’s sufficient to set a form field group as readonly to set also all of its child fields as readonly - respective disabled. Unfortunately the disable/enable function in the form field editor doesn’t accept form field groups. It would be much more convenient if a whole group could also be disabled (readonly) and enabled instead of having to handle all child form fields. Kind regards Sébastien

Hi, in a path configuration there is no editor for the name of a task. But in the Create Task action the name field supports an editor. Therefore I suggest to add the same editor functionality for the path configuration. Kind regards Sébastien

Hi, I suggest to add a setting for favicon in the color themes editor of the portal. The upload of custom images already exists for big and small logo with default WEBCON logo as a reset option. Same with a 3rd field for favicon would be perfect and by this it would also be possible to distinguish the different environments what has been suggested here: https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/5898 Kind regards Sébastien

Hi, I suggest to add two value filters "contains not" and "ends" for reports. Excel also supports "equals" and "equals not". Example use case: Search all entries with process names that don't contain the search needle (e.g. a prefix). To get this result it is necessary to create an extra view as workaround. Kind regards Sébastien

Hi, when a date column is chosen as x axis and the data series contains discrete values over time (count of applications, temperature, share price, ...) it would be great having the aggregation type "Latest value". The latest value is dependent of the time range that gets used on the x axis. This could be day, week, month, ... and would be needed too. If there are multiple values for one day, week, month, ... the latest should be used of this range. If values steadily increase "Maximal value (...)

Hi, I suggest a new feature that supports to duplicate an existing dashboard with all its content, data sources, configurations ... Sometimes dashboards get bigger and bigger and it can be necessary to have a new more abstract dashboard that contains less widgets e.g. With a duplicate it would be much more efficient to just delete the unnecessary widgets instead of creating all stuff from scratch. Kind regards Sébastien

Hi, it would be great if the preview of a data source value would not only display the filter but also the selected return column and number of rows for return. I've attached a little mockup. Having e.g. a CONCAT of multiple data source value elements one has always to open the data source's edit filter dialog to get the return information. Kind regards Sébastien

Hi, it would be great if data tables would not only support sorting in the portal but filtering too as it is supported in reports. Moreover I suggest to enable the override sort settings in the Studio for a data table to set a default sort order. Example use case: Data table with all cycle automations of workflows with amongst others the column Next Launch. Default sorting should be Next Launch ascending here. Kind regards Sébastien

I am currently working on WEBCON BPS version 2025.2.1.304 and I have noticed an inconsistency in the Leave Schedule / Absence Chart. For planned leaves, I can simply click the bar on the chart to navigate directly to the workflow instance (presumably thanks to the linkage via the PLN_WFID column). However, for historical leaves, clicking does nothing, and there is no way to open the related request directly from the chart. I checked the underlying structure for the leave history and notice (...)

It will we useful to have the possibility to mark a task as flagged, programmatically based on a business rule, at the moment of task creation. (For example If n a process a user marks a contract as Urgent, in a Helpdesk Application a user marks a ticket as Critical, etc. when sending in next step/assigning to other user that user task should appear as flagged) Reason for this request: As higher in hierarchy a manager is, as more probable that he will have tasks from many applications / process (...)

Hi, today, saving processes, apps, and artifacts in the Studio lacks a structured way to document what changed and why. This creates several limitations: - Low transparency: Changes are saved without clear intent or context. - Weak traceability: No consistent link between a change and a requirement, bug, or external ticket (e.g., Jira). - Inconsistent documentation: Teams rely on manual conventions, which quickly diverge. - Difficult audits: Reviewing history becomes time-consuming and (...)
