Viewing a value from a choice field in a report

1 1

Hi, I encountered the following error. I have an action that sets a value in a choice field. I set the choice field through the value of the ID. When I enter the form, the value is correctly set, and it displays the name corresponding to the set ID. However, when I enter the report, in that column, I see the value of the ID instead of the name. I tested by setting the value in the choice field as follows: id#name, and I no longer encountered the problem. Why does it behave differently (...)

New font 'Aptos' from Microsoft in WEBCON BPS

1 0

Dear Community, Microsoft recently announced that the new default font for Microsoft 365 applications is changing from Calibri to Aptos: https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/new-office-theme-e7bbfe02-d1fb-4c4d-b3b7-6a47f0cefd3f If you already have this font on your device, give it a try in WEBCON BPS. In my opinion, it looks really good in WEBCON BPS Portal. If you want to test it, just set global CSS style in your configuration: body {font-family: Aptos} This may not be the b (...)

Visibility Button

1 1

I've noticed that when I import from the development environment to the test or in production environment, custom visibility configurations for reports or start buttons don't get imported. For instance, I've set a button to be visible only for a certain group; the configuration remained as custom visibility upon import, but the group disappeared. The groups were created in the development environment and imported into the other environments. Thanks, Raluca

Create Data Source from two different data connections

1 4

Hello. Has anybody an idea if and how it is possible to create a data source from two different data connections? I.e. I have a database (MS SQL) with visitor data and the CacheOrganizationStructure table in the webcon content DB (MS SQL, too). Now I want to create a datasource for a Choice field, where I could query for names in both tables. It is purely for reading data. Kind regards Klaus

BPS REST API - PublicApiReport -> How much data can be returned in one call

I am fetching report data from the following endpoint: https://developer.webcon.com/2023/resources/rest_api5.0/#tag/PublicApiReport/paths/~1api~1data~1v5.0~1db~1{dbId}~1applications~1{appid}~1reports~1{reportid}/get There are properties for page and size, but information on defaults and max is missing.

Remove data of instances no longer in archive database not working

1 1

Hello, As usually, after encountering an error during tests, I have tried to Remove data of instances no longer in archive database option. Unfortunatelly, it is not working.

In Designer Studio, I can't remove the steps associated with the corrupted task, and the task also can't be removed because it doesn't load. Is there any tip, how to remove that? Best regards

JavaScript changes after moving to WEBCON BPS 2023

1 2

Hi everyone, I think any changes to JavaScript is worth a dedicated thread, since these won't effect everyone and can be quite technical. As everyone has read the change log, it should be no surprise that we need to apply some changes to any JavaScript based modifications. The cash-dom library has replaced the former jQuery library. The change may affect how form rules work in JavaScript mode if the rules used the functionality provided by jQuery. For a description of the differences (...)

Q: How to deacitvate Alert-Message "data will be lost" while leaving page?

1 1

Good morning, we just updated WEBCON from 2021.1.4.154 to 2022.1.4.127 We noticed that there is a new functionality in the frontend that checks for unsaved fields when exiting the page. Overall, a great new feature, but unfortunately it leads to a negative user experience in some specific cases. For example, we often use only one start step to implement a search for the users. The user has the option to select or enter some filters and the DATA TABLE shows the remaining instance (...)

Required Comment in path transition

1 4

In the last 2 weeks several customers have asked me if it would be possible, that if a comment is required for a path and the error windows pops up, the comment can be entered directly in the popup window and the path transition can be done from there? When trying to set the comment using JS the path transition validation won't recognize it and still trigger the error. Has anyone of you an idea of how to solve this or maybe already solved it? Thanks Pasquale
