Are there best practices how interaction with business central (formerly known as MS Dynamics NAV) can take place? What would be the preferred interface? I remember a communication with Webcon where comon data source was mentioned. Where are we here?

Hi everyone, I learned today that you can close threads, which prevents adding additional answers. This is fine but I believe that we that an additional hint in the thread title would help, too. There are two reasons: 1) it's easier to notice 2) It's a better user experience. If you hide an option the user will wonder why something isn't available also it should be. If you "disable" it instead and provide an explanation everything is clear. Therefore I would suggest to add [Closed] as a prefi (...)

Hello everyone! I have two questions. 1. Did anyone use the absence process template as the time schedule for the employees? My client has many different shifts for employees and I was thinking of presenting the data with the mentioned process. Any ideas would be appreciated. 2. At this point my main problem are the colors presenting the vacation type (which in my case would be the shift). The Vacation Type data source has only 6 available colors. I need more than that. Does anyone know if w (...)

I try to implement a ConfigEditableItemList in a custom action in C#-code. When I go over the ConfigEditableItemList I get the message: "The class with the item list configuration must implement: IConfigEditableItemList". I implemented an example but when I upload the SDK into Webcon I get an error that there is the implementations missing and I can see nothing from the SDK. Has someone experience with the ConfigEditableItemList and can give me a better example? Photos from the case are (...)

Hello everyone, did someone update the database compatibility level from the default 'SQL Server 2008 (100)' to a newer one and can share their experience? I really would like to make use of those "new" functions instead of using hard to read workarounds. Best regards, Daniel

Hey all, again I need your help. Do you know any possibilities to create a new user when you register with the new openID feature? For example, a new user register over openID. After redirect the user has no access to the application, because he only exists in, for example, azure ad but not as a bps user on the plattform. I hope my question is clear enough =) Greets Georg

Is there a way to set a custom user profile picture in WEBCON for each user? If so, is it different between Azure AD and local AD users? (This is more of a question and I am not sure if a new forum thread is the right way of doing it.)

Hi everyone, does anyone has an idea, how to create a timeout for existing instances? The workflow waits in a system step until the date of the timeout execution is reached. Unfortunately the insert condition was wrong, so all instances will wait there forever. One option would be to define an invisible path, which leads to the same step to trigger the timeout again. I don't like this approach. In a real world case it would mean to deploy the process to production, invoke the new path for ever (...)

Hello everyone, we are using JavaScript for a RestAPI call (long story – it's a requirement from IT). Now I receive the "Response Status Code" and "Response Text" within the JavaScript, but I also need to send these values back to WEBCON for further processing. Since we usually work with WEBCON without using JavaScript, I’m lacking the necessary know-how in this area. Can anyone assist me with this? Thank you in advance! Wishing you all a great weekend, Bjoern

Hi, Is it possible to Use a http request to pull data from an API and map those retrieved data to populate a Word Document Template.docx? For context the retrieved data is in table format. I would appreciate it if the steps on how to do this is provided. Thanks and Regards,

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

HI, We have a process that has a substantial number of attachments and the client would like to be able now to search after their name. Initially, we didn't leave the check mark to Add attachment content to SOLR search index. Apart from enabling this, is there any other option? Would it significantly slow down the search if we do it now? Thanks, Raluca

HI, How to monitor the moment of typing characters into an attribute using the SDK. I would like to, for example, call an API after typing 3 characters and save the retrieved values to another attribute.

When trying to log in via AAD I get an error: { "type": "Exception", "message": "Failed with an unknown exception", "errorGuid": "99f68f89-25f2-4839-a6d0-1f93991063df", "stacktrace": "", "innerError": null } In Entra Microsoft I see information about the Application logging in to Entra but instead of a response in Entra I see this error - What does it mean and why do I not have a response from Entry about successful or unsuccessful login ?

Hi, I have a problem with 2024.1.1.114 and SDK execution. I created an SDK to connect to the SAP and download data from the chosen contractor. The SDK was working from version 2022 to 2023 with some updates to c# code - after updating Webcon and SDK to 2024 i received the error: ERROR -> Plugin changed transaction nesting count. Please contact administrator. Interestingly, when I connect the VS debugger to the portal, the error does not occur and the SDK downloads data to the form. (...)
