Hi,
it would be great, if the comment (WFD_Description) would be extended with step name in which the comment has been added.
Maybe the information could be stored in the format:
STPID#DefaultLabel$$DE$$Translated Label"
This would allow us to select the correct label if we are parsing the comment ourself.
Best regards,
Daniel

Dear Daniel,
I don’t think this is an option, because this information is already stored in WFHistoryElements.
Every additional comment added during a path transition or via the Save button is written to WFH_Description.
This is also how the element history displays them as related to the specific step and history version, comparing them to the previous version.
Best regards,
Adrian

Hi Adrian,
from a pure technical point of view this would be possible.
The WFD_description stores all information for each comment in a JSON object. Extending this object with two new properties "Step Id", "Step Label" wouldn't be a issue. It would also be possible to migrate the existing comments to the new format using the WFHistoryElements information. It's possible to identify in which version a new comment has been added which could be used to store the step.
A colleague combined these information to fulfill a customer request. While it's working, the performance isn't the best.
Best regards,
Daniel
