Processes
Hi Our WEBCON BPS process base grow quickly and some applications got complex having many processes and flows. Our users base is spread across several departments / business units and countries. The result is that we need to process many change requests from various sources and it is a challenge to synchronise all development work to find a point in time, when all changes have been tested and approved. So, we need sometimes to deploy the application that includes untested features what often (...)
Hi, I'm looking for ideas on how to start an automatic process on a schedule that checks each row of a dictionary that has 3 types of dates. The goal is to automatically start another process when a specific date from the dictionary is reached. How can this be implemented? Thanks in advance!
Hi, I’m looking for the best approach to handle long-running operations (potentially taking several minutes) in WEBCON BPS. Scenario: Suppose we need to perform time-consuming Active Directory updates based on a list of items within a WEBCON BPS workflow instance. Given the current execution time limit of 120 seconds, this may not be sufficient. Workaround Approach: My current solution is to use a scheduled Windows Task (created via a PowerShell integration action in WEBCON), then trans (...)
Hi, If a user has an XLSX file with 100 rows, where each row represents a new item, is it possible to allow them to start new instances of a given process based on that file? In this case, the goal would be to automatically create 100 new workflows.
Hi Community, We are experiencing an issue with parallel tasks in both WEBCON BPS 2021 and a new 2025 installation. A task should be assigned to two users, and the workflow must wait for both users to complete it before moving to the next step. In workflow, I have a task step that correctly implements this logic. Task is assigned via business rule. Later in the same workflow, after a conditional gateway, there is another task step with an identical configuration. However, this task proce (...)
Hi, I want to send attachments from the WebCon system as email messages, specifically PDF files. Is there an option in WebCon to add a password to such a PDF file, so that opening the file would require entering a password?
Hi, I have a process that use API to send data to another system. I have a patch in WebCon to check status, based on the feedback, process moves to the next step or waits another hour on the timer. I want to change this. I found this option in WebCon API: Path that will be used by element PATH /api/data/v6.0/db/{dbId}/elements/{id} But my second system don't have a PATH method. Do you have any ideas how to automatically move a process to next step but based on the POST method in We (...)
I am trying (without any success) to read data (ie. employee id) from an existing text-based PDF (test pdf created via MS Word). The documentation is explaining the different actions (ie. wait for ocr ai, wait for text-layer), but not how they actually work together or how to use them. Maybe I am completly wrong in trying to use "OCR AI recognition", "Wait for OCR AI" etc..... My goal is: * A configured hot-folder puts a pdf into a workflow (=> working) * A step/action/etc. reads the em (...)
Hi, I am unable to figure out how to use the Webcon REST API for starting new element. My issue relates to the "ChoicePicker" / "Autocomplete" fields, where I cannot find the way to submit the value. I think that I have tried all the combinations, but I always end up with the same error. Public Api POST /api/data/v6.0/db/1/elements - "formFields"[] - "guid":"...", "value": [{"id": "115"}] - "guid":"...", "value": [{"id": "115", "name": "ElementName"}] - "guid":"...", "svalue": "11 (...)
Hi, I need to build a process that will work as a service, check a mssql table, and start the process if new rows are added to the table. Single process based on a single row in SQL table. Maybe someone has built a similar functionality? Best regards.
Does Webcon save the time a user stays in a given process step, i.e. the time from entering the step form to moving to the next step or clicking the save button? I want to make a report out of it to calculate KPIs
Working Area: TEST-Server Hi everyone, i just tested the PUBLIC LINK feature the weekend before, and everything worked fine with my PUBLIC LINK and my private GMAIL-Adress. We want to give unknown guests (except an invitation email) the possibility to log into a step of a specific workflow, press the path button and then lose access to the instance. Today we upgraded to the 2024 Version on TEST-Server and now, with the same App and EMail, i get an error translated to "The verification o (...)
Hey, on the website https://webcon.com/pl/resources/elektroniczny-obieg-umow/ I read that the system allows you to generate a ‘redline’ version of documents (comparing changes made from the moment the document was sent to the client to the moment the document was received back - even those changes that were not made in the change mode) How is this done? How do I run it in the process? Thank you, Maciej

Hi, I'm new here in the forum. I hope a got some help. My first question is about 'Hot Folders' The Configuration of the folder is quite easy. But my process, I want to start - doesn't start. I have configured in the 'Start-Workflow-Settings' the name-field and added the value of the user to which the task should be applied. See the attached picture. But it doesn't work. The User is an Active Directive User. What's wrong with my config? I am grateful for your tips Franz

Hello WEBCON community, I did some application updates (including a new workflow) in DEV environment and now I want to do the update in PROD by importing an application, but I'm getting errors. There are no active tasks in step 3091, but there are some documents in step 3090, because it's a final step. Also I didn't do any changes in these two steps. Does somebody have any ideas on what's wrong?
Hi, I have a strange situation. One of our users, who is a business administrator on a workflow, is suddenly getting an error when attempting to view workflow elements. The error displayed is "Execution timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding." This is only happening to this specific user. Where should I even go to look for any detailed troubleshooting? Thanks
I have created a special report for a subdevision, and granted a User for only see the Report. But he does not have the grant to look into the Workflow. It ist our internal Ticket system and only the IT Guys shoud get access to the Workflow and Ticketdatas Other Subs only should have their own Report to see how many Tickets are in work. And this overview shoud be only visible to the Sub Manager. So i granted the Process to the User and the Report to the User. He see the Process and see (...)
