Hi, Currently we have 'Error occured' in the header of the validation message. This often results in unnecessary logging of error reports from users who do not read the content, but only suggest that there is an error. Perhaps it would be a good idea to change the content of the header to something else that does not suggest an error, or allow it to be defined per action or globally? Regards.

Hi, in my opinion it would be great, if the Archive view /explore/all could be configured on a global level in Designer Studio. Maybe as a BPS internal view. This would allow us to define the system and global fields which are available for every process. For example I really would like to have the option to see/sort/filter the modified date and business entity which is currently not possible. I'm writing this post right now because I just received again a "bug" description without a (...)

Hi, The change consists of changing the default configuration that is created when the timeout action is added to a step. Default settings are interval 1 minute, number of repetitions: infinite number. If we forget to change this setting, it causes unnecessary and large number of versions, calls to action, etc. to be generated. It will be safer if the default option is : number of repetitions: 1 Regards

Dear Webcon, are you planning to give us a new Report model (in the data presentation) that allows us to use our own/independent SQL?

Hi, The idea is to always default to connections to the current database. Now if we have defined others, some others are often substituted by default, which is irritating :) Regards.

Hi, In my opinion, the biggest advantage of BPS data sources is the ability to link to a selected element. However, the disadvantage is much lower performance in advanced conditions, inability to join data, use union, and combine data from different content databases. By changing the source from BPS to SQL, users lose the functionality of the link. Of course, we can achieve this in a different way, but it is not consistent, for example, with other pickers using a BPS source. Would it (...)

Hi, Is there a possibility to configure exchange integration actions - create/update calendar event so it creates Teams meeting? Or only option is Microsoft Graph? Or some powershell? Do you have any examples of that? Best Regards, Dominik

Hello, I would like to make a suggestion or find solution for branding case. We got customized White Template (as a copy) + we customized coloring of navigation sections by global CSS (setup in System settings in BPS Studio). Result is visible in the attached screenshots. Such coloring works fine for light templates, but not for dark one. And I thought that Additional CSS per template would be a nice feature in the product. And as workaround for now - could you please give me a hint how (...)

While I greatly appreciate the functionalities and flexibility provided by the WEBCON BPS mobile application, many of us find ourselves predominantly using WEBCON BPS on desktop computers due to the nature of our workflows and the complex tasks we perform. However, the mobile application's interface and functionalities do not always translate seamlessly to desktop usage, where the majority of our work occurs. The addition of PWA support would bridge this gap significantly by offering a number (...)

In the 2023 version, we have the ability to generate QR codes for each element. The mobile application has introduced a search by QR codes, which is very useful. I miss the ability to add QR codes to document prints from Webcon. It could look similar to adding barcodes in document templates. Thanks to this, a person who receives a printed document could easily find the right element in the Webcon system by scanning the QR code.

Hello everyone, I have a question. We are migrating Webcon to version 2023. I checked the table [dbo].[AdminAPILogs], and since the last version in 2022, there hasn't been a single log in this table. Has anything changed in the new versions, and do I need to turn on logging into this table somewhere? I have been looking for an answer on the Webcon website and Google, but I haven't found anything

Hi, I'm sorry, if this a duplicate, but I'm not sure if I added it already or maybe someone else. If selecting a value of a choose field from a data source throws and this causes an error, it's not easily possible to see the actual "request" which was used to get the data. There are ways around this: - In case of SQL and you have access to the server you could activate the SQL profiler - In case of rest/soap requests you could add an http interceptor which can be used as a proxy. I (...)

Hi, we have the option to create "child sources", by defining a superior source and a business entity. This way we can use different connections. https://docs.webcon.com/docs/2023R3/Studio/ConnectionsAndDataSource/DataSources/DataSource_RestWebService#3-superior-source This way we can use different connection for the "same" data source. This works fine for reading data. When we want to write data so, it's not so easy any more. For example the "invoke REST Web service" will allow se (...)

It would be useful to be able to group the data in the itemlist at the column level and on the main form. Currently, we can group at the level of each step, but sometimes when we have many steps, it would be more useful to be able to set it just on the main form. Thanks, Raluca

Hello Everyone, We have some challenges with Archiving in Webcon BPS, so we have some ideas to improve. 1. Issue: you cannot setup field availibility for archived instances Proposal: there could be a 3rd form editor like standard/mobile form have. Or/and additional field matrix setting controlling visibility on archive form. 2. Issue: Instance level privileges are not inherited to archived instances. It is a problem as we have readonly permissions granted based on instance attrib (...)

Hello everyone, I've got a use case, where users want to make a specific path always redirect them to a specific dashboard. Right now, the returnurl parameter is built dynamically, and we (developers) don't have almost any possibilities to change that behavior (we can create our custom links, so there is some). In most cases it will work like that IF user opened element from the dashboard, but that's not always the case. I'm thinking about 'override returnurl' option on specific path - som (...)

Would be nice to be able to have an action that creates a plain text file from a value programmed similarly to a business rule. This would be useful when creating input for bank transfers and possibly other applicatins that accept plain text file as an input.
