Hi, I've cases where one choose field updates another choose field. If the data source is not a SQL database this can take some time. Setting the first field takes about 1 second, (1) in the attachment. Getting picker search results 540ms Validate picker control 460ms The setting and validation of the target field (2) takes again 1700ms and another 390 ms for executing a form rule. Setting target form field first choose field 1160ms Validate picker control 611ms Setting own target fi (...)

Dear All we have a lot of pie charts at our dashboards and when someone has a lot of cases in different instances of pie chart dimenssion e.g. depo, country, acceptacne path it is difficult (esspecially since WEBCON2022) to select certain part of data. it would be nice to have option to select one lable from the graph legen or deselect all and then select one instead of deselecting several + recent dispaying of the values on pie chart doesn't bring a lot of value as it only shows number of inst (...)

It would be very helpful if excel generating action and data table attribute ability to save as excel could produce an Excel file with or without columns headers. This is sometimes useful, as some external applications accept only data in excel files and no headers.

In template configuration of vacation template generated process we have 2 important data sources - vacation history and vacation plans. Their display on vacation chart is different - history has legend and colors for different types of absences, whereas plans are displayed just in one color and there are no types. Another difference is that history items do not point to the original item, whereas plans allow us to link to the original element. One more difference I've noticed is that no matter (...)

It would be very helpful if one could create a global form rule and webcon would run it on every page load (especially the pages outside of apps as there is no way you could perform anything there now). This way you could force a user to "punch the clock" after logging to webcon (load and start a dedicated workflow) or show some important information after the user logs in.

Hi, WFD_Att Choose columns have size nvarchar(1000). When using the 'allow multiple values' mode and having translations in the source into 3-4 languages, additionally if the ID is e.g. guid, this value is exceeded very quickly. Is it possible to increase the database size of this type of columns to nvarchar(4000)? Regards

Hi, as always when a new feature is provided, new requests will follow immediately. :) It would be great to see in the workflow history whether path authorization was used and which method was used. At the moment, it's not at all visible if path authorization was used at all. If the authorization is activated for existing workflows, we can't distinguish which instances have been using it. Best regards, Daniel

Hi, it would be great to have the UTC time in a hover effect of a time. In the attached screenshot you see the same element but with different times. One browser is running on a server with a different time zone. Even so it's explain it can cause confusion. Therefore some way of displaying the UTC+0 time would be great. Best regards, Daniel

Hi, I really like the new path authorization feature and we will surely use it. The geolocation is also an interesting addition but if it's used in combination with the path authorization it will created unexpected results. I noticed that the geolocation of the browser is used, even if path authorization with method "application" is used. If this method is used, it would be great to use the location of the device instead. I made two tests, one with and one without active VPN. As expected (...)

Hi. I would suggest to simplify company selector in substitutions. In environments with multiple companies and several content databases list of companies is cross join of both, making it difficult for the user to choose and also requires adding several substitudions records for each content database (content database names are rather technical name and are not usefull for end users). I know that it requires to relate companies accros all content databases - maybe it's good time to move compa (...)

It would be a nice touch if we could group Automations inside Process Configuration, same as we can group Form Rules, Constants, or Business Rules. I really love how flexible Automations are, especially in case of any API integrations where global ones are created, and they might be used everywhere. Their own success makes lack of folders feel like that small stone in pair of comfy shoes ;) Closed in favour of -> https://community.webcon.com/forum/new-message/4840

I would like to suggest building two actions: 1. Converting the value (integer) to the equivalent number of hours and minutes. 2. Adding and subtracting two time attributes (types of action). Example: Ad. 1. 90 = 1 h 30 min Ad. 2. 1h 30 min + 0 h 40 min = 2 h 10 min

Hi, it would be nice if the view V_WFElements would not only contain the integer id but the GUID. I'm not sure whether using the view in a calculated column would be more performant or creating an own join, but only for one table. For example (select Count(*) from V_WfElements childs where childs.DTYPE_GUID = '0000' ... further conditions) vs (select Count(*) from WfElements childs join WFDocTypes on childs.WFD_DTYPEID = DTYPE_ID and DTYPE_GUID = '0000' where .... further conditions (...)

Hi! I wanted to ask if the removal of the preview of XLSX files could be reconsidered? Perhaps as a toggled parameter. :) It was an important functionality for our company and after upgrading to BPS2023 we have to come up with a different solution for the preview of simple spreadsheets that are attached to BPS documents. Thanks, Patryk

Dear All, Would you like the idea having global application home on Webcon portal, which means you can include reports/dashboards for multiple applications even from different content databases? In our situation we separated content databases as per organization structure, which is usually useful, but it is a disadvantage if you want to show a consolidated high level view. I know that it is feasible with external reporting (like PowerBI), but I would be happy if there were a standard feat (...)

Hi everyone! I'll start with the app package import error message, then some details: System.Exception: Exception occurred while importing table WFDetailConfigs ---> System.InvalidOperationException: No item type: WFBusinessRuleDefinitions, id: 2752 at WebCon.WorkFlow.Base.ImportExport.Mapping.MappingList.GetBySourceId(Int32 id, DbNodeType dbNodeType) at WebCon.WorkFlow.Base.ImportExport.Import.ForeignKeyFinder.<>c__DisplayClass7_0.<GetKeyPairs>b__1(ForeignKeyReplacePair pair) ...

Hello, I'm looking for a feature to be able to display images inside drop-down, or pop-up choice field. Either form Picture field, or from Single line of text in Picture mode. Use case: I'm working on a process, where sales department should specify which base product should be used as a starting point to create a new one. There is a long list of those base products, and remembering how each one looks just by number/name is not possible. Displaying the base product during selection cou (...)

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 include the related processes too. Now I'm going back to generating the documentation for ten processes again... Best regards, Daniel

Hello, While designing form I'm often getting questions about possibility to set some additional description to the field. I'm usually talking about the tooltip, but it requires the action of end user - he have to willingly hover on the (ℹ️) icon, to display the message, and there is no guarantee, that he will see it. Right now it ends with creating HTML field with some description near the field, which in my opinion unnecessary clutters the form. My idea is that we could have some con (...)

Hi! Earlier there was a feature in BPS Studio to search in changes history of processes. It's not available anymore in BPS 2022.1.4. We miss it much. Is there any plan to make it available again?: Thanks!
