Hi, I'm going through data migration process via sharepoint lists and the protocol that I want to achieve it with is by using cyclical actions. I've created an automation that is runing subworkflow(sql) and there is a problem with mapping. Data source has exact values that I need, and I'm using them as intended but the problem is I'm getting data rows I don't want and even then those queried fields are still not applied to created instances after running the action, so that leads me to believing (...)

Hi to all. As a consultant who needs to dive regularly into the database using SQL I'm surprised that there is no physical data model diagram in the documentation. A visual representation of tables and their dependancies provides a very useful overview about how data is structured, maintained and related. In SQL server there is a option to add a new database diagram and thus my question: could Webcon, as a software vendor, provide and maintain the database diagram OR is it up to the implementati (...)

Hi, How can I add a static value to JSON - grid? I don't want to add Source field. I have a value that will not change. Furthermore, I wolud like to put it in there the easiest way possible. Pls help :)

Hi. Since we switched from V2021 to V2025 I noticed that it seems to be no longer possible to use the content of a form field (unsaved data) in a SQL query (see pic). It just delivers "empty". Is there a workaround? I frequently used the data of form fields to control actions and so on. This is a major degradation ! Kind regards Klaus

Business example: We have a process that many people can access, but only the administrator and the creator can edit it. Other users would like to clone existing documents to save time, but they can only do this for documents they are the author of. Is there any reasonable workaround to let users without edit rights use such an action? P.S. I have to use the SQL option because of position lists in the instance.

Hi Everyone, I’ve just started implementing business processes in WebCon BPS and couldn’t find the answer to my question on the forum. Business case: It’s an overtime management process. In one attribute, the user provides the overtime date, and then in the item list they provide additional data, including the employee’s name, start time (hours and minutes), and end time. I would like to give the user an easy way to set the time. I could use a Date/Time column, set provided date and a (...)

Hello, I would like to allow users export data from item list which shall be in readonly mode. Right now Export to Excel feature hides when I check the item list to readonly mode. Is it a feature / bug? Is it planned to be changed? Does any workaround exist, except the showing data table with the same result (and e.g. my query returns over 1k rows which is data table limit). I am aware that the form slow downs but is not crucial in that case :) Best Regards, Dominik

Hi guys, some of our users have pointed out that the pathpanel is too large at low screen resolutions. We've enabled the floating version of the panel, which does indeed take up a lot of space. Is there a way to resize the panel, e.g. using CSS? Do any of you have any ideas? Thanks in advance Gerd

I don't have a "WEBCON BPS Software Development Kit" license. I'm wondering about the possibility of electronically signing attachments. Is the only option for using a qualified personal signature the "IT Hit Doc Opener 5" add-on? The "Sign an attachment" action only applies to the signature placed on the server, not the user's personal signature?

Hi, Is it true that the Business Administrator role is required to view the analysis (Overview, Heatmap, etc)? If that's the case, then I have a bigger problem. Since the metrics are relevant for our process managers, for example, or even for department or division heads, I would have to assign them the role of business administrator. This would also allow them to delete workflow instances from the productive system or work in administration mode.... => Big no-go Kind Regards Ernst

Hi everyone, I’m currently working with a WEBCON environment and exploring the possibility of moving only the OCR component to a separate dedicated machine, while keeping the rest of the WEBCON environment on the current server. The main reason for this is that the CPU load on the current server is very high, likely due to the OCR processes, and we want to offload this to improve overall performance. Does anyone have experience or know of any guides, best practices, or documentation on (...)

Hello community, I need to start a workflow instance for each email address in a text, where the addresses are separated by semicolons. My plan was to initialize the Item List using an SQL query, and then to start a subworkflow (SQL) instance for each row (email). Since our WEBCON environment doesn't support STRING_SPLIT, I fabricated a custom SQL query to split the long string into individual rows with email addresses. This approach seems to work when executed via SQL COMMAND, but it doesn't (...)

Hi everyone, I have a problem in a project that I took over some time ago from another developer. Specifically, the "add" button for the item list only appears on the first step, where the item list is visible. On every subsequent step, although the list is editable, there is no "add" button to allow adding more rows. Similarly, on the following steps, there are no action buttons like "clone" or "delete." I have checked the editability in these steps—both on the attribute and on the matrix (inh (...)

Hi, is it possible to do it via javascript is the main question. i know that this could be done via sdk(c#) and there is already an example guide of it on the forum, but i was wondering would it be possible to create a parser in javascript, that can be loaded maybe by the hotfolders option ?

Hi, is it necessary to open any ports other than HTTPS/HTTP (443/80) on the application server to run the Designer Studio on a remote machine (not on the application server)? - or open traffic from that remote machine to the SQL server

Hi, we would like to pick a group in a form field and to use all members of this group as filter for another user picker field. Using the function GROUP MEMBERS [AD-Group Login and name] in a business rule works fine. Setting this one into an ALERT all members are returned as expected. Using 'testgroup' as string in the group picker of the function GROUP MEMBERS ['testgroup'] in a filter of a data source works fine and all members are returned as expected. But using the AD-Group field (...)

Hi, we wanted to use the MS Teams Workflow to push new RSS feed entries to our internal WEBCON Teams channel. Unfortunately the Power Automate flow throws this error using https://community.webcon.com/feed/user-voice: {   "status": 400,   "message": "Failed to read requested Feed information.
