Hi, I am a new guy here and I just started with webcon designer. I need help with mathematical operation on a form. I want to subtract two dates to get number of days beetwen this two dates. I know that I can use "datediff" function but my point is to get this 'dynamically'. When user starts to fill form, he type date 1 and date 2 and below that he will see in third field numbers of days. How to achive this on a form?
I'm struggling with the syntax of the SQL filter for a report. In general it works, but if I want to use the currently loggedin user, I get an error. I tried with the following syntax: AND (##currentloginname##='servr\Userxxx') The error message is: "Incorrect syntax near '='. Incorrect syntax near ','. Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'order'."
What would be the best method to remove rows from the item list of an instance inside an SDK plugin in order to make use of them in C# code? I tried to remove rows from the item list in the code C# (SDK plugin ) using function : WebCon.WorkFlow.SDK.Documents.Model.ItemsLists.ItemsList.RemoveAt(int index), but can't delete all the rows because I get the error from the image
Hello, I need to find a way to automatically delete some workflow instances. I know that we can use the Archive workflow instance action, but it doesn't work. In the reports menu, we have a section named "Archive workflow instances queue", I found all my instances there, but I need a way to delete them all automatically
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 (...)
What is the easiest way to detect whether a form is in edit or display mode? I need this to show/hide fields. Any ideas?

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 (...)
Hi everyone, As far as I know, WEBCON BPS doesn’t provide a built-in option to send email notifications when a comment is added to an instance. Has anyone found a good workaround or implemented a solution for this?
Hi everyone, I'm looking for an out-of-the-box solution or a workflow I can build that automatically sends users a weekly email summarizing all their pending tasks across various applications. Ideally, this would consolidate tasks from multiple applications and deliver a clear, actionable list. If anyone has ideas, suggestions, or experience with similar setups, I'd really appreciate your input! Thanks in advance!
Hi everybody. I'm trying to implement a calculated column into a report. This is the Query: ( SELECT dbo.ClearWFElemAdv(DET_Att3) FROM WFElementDetails WHERE DET_WFCONID = 9579 AND DET_WFDID = WFD_ID AND dbo.ClearWFElemID(DET_Att1) = 1 ) This column is empty. If I put in a value for WFD_ID, e.g. 52750 the column is filled with the correct Value (for item 52750). What am I doing wrong? Kind regards Klaus
Hello community, We previously worked with Webcon BPS version 2022 and has upgraded to 2025.1.1. In the older version, I remember there was an option in Designer Studio (can’t recall exactly where) to view a workflow diagram—similar to the Workflow Designer view—that showed how many times each path was used. I used this feature during testing to verify that all paths were covered and to check the number of executions. Does anyone know where this functionality can be found in version 2025.1.1, o (...)
Hi to all, for a little workflow I'd like to copy a file from one Sharepoint bib to another. This should be done automatically as soon as a new file is uploaded. I have 2 problems: - The workflow works with the actions for sharepoint with downloading and saving, but the attachment is empty. It always has 0kb. What could be the problem? We mentioned if it only saves the meta data and not the content but where can I adjust it? - How can I give the workflow the instruction to start automaticall (...)
Hi, maybe I'm just overlooking the obvious, but I can't remove the description of an attachment. I don't want to set it to a space character because this would still show the description HTML element which takes up space in the UI. I've used the "Update attachment" action, ticked the bock to change the description and tried: - Setting no value in the description field - Assign a local parameter with the following value assignment -- No value, didn't change the description -- Empty, (...)
