Hello, Lately I was thinking about SQL optimization. So I did this query on production environments of our 4 random clients. The query shows where probably we should be thinking about putting index, because of high usage of those columns. Of course we all know that putting index on WFElements with attribute columns is not a good idea (maybe if you have secondary BPS_Content for only 1 process could be fine), but there are some examples on every environment that are in top 10 most highly recomme (...)

Dear Webcon Community :), Is it possible to add sort option to "My tasks"? By default it is sorted by Modification date in ascending order. My proposal is: 1. It would be very useful if user can sort it by other standard fields like: Days/hours in step, Modifying person, Creation date, etc. 2. Switching between the direction of the selected sort (ascending/descending) would be great

At this pointthe only way to generate multiple word documents is to create multiple actions, or if you have a dynamic number of documents, you should use subworkflows. The second solution works alright when we are talking about 2-20 documents, but (I'm not sure if all of you are aware) creating an new instance, ore moving it one step is a verry slow action and if you need to move or create 1000 instances using the default actions you will have to wait sometimes hours. Another problem is that (...)

Hi, Why is only one task created, and everything executes in it, when I execute the following code in a loop: args.TransitionInfo.TasksToAdd.Add(new WebCon.WorkFlow.SDK.Common.Model.NewTaskData(new WebCon.WorkFlow.SDK.Common.Model.UserInfo("webcon", "webcon"))); Best regards.

The reporting and filter options of WEBCON BPS are already great. However we have customers who would like to have a filter "all but..." or "not" like we already have "Begins" and "Contains".

Currently Webcon BPS does not offer an action to convert pdf to pdf/a. As there is a rising request for documents in pdf/a format, it would be great having a built-in pdf to pdf/a conversion action.

Hi, it would be great if the creation of Dashboards could be added to the Designer Desk. Best regards, Daniel

Is it possible to have the Itemlist action buttons in front of the item list? As most of the times we have few hundred records and in case of do some action on the itemlist... we need to go to bottom of the item list and scroll to the right and do some action. After the action complets we do the same thing like go to bottom of the page scroll to right and do some action.. Instead if we have the actions in begining of the itemlist will be good feature or please guide me how to achieve this.

Hi everyone, with the advent of BPS 2022 during the save/path transition of an workflow instance it will be checked, whether the latest version of a process matches the version whit which the instance has been retrieved. If you save the process in Designer Studio it will get a new version and you have to reload the page. You can no longer execute paths or even save the workflow instance. While I can understand the intention, it just annoys me because it slows down the development/testing: (...)

It would be nice to have the ability to delete (or hide) the System Dashboard from the left menu.

For the absence chart, i'm missing to the option to define the range of the chart. When using the absence chart in a leave request, i would like to see the range around my planned leave. Currently the user has to scroll, to see the right data. Thats why it would be great to be able to define a dynamic data range. Ideally we can configure start and end date some weeks before/after the dates of the leave request. In the configuration there is enough space to add an option to set start and end (...)

Hi everyone, it would be great if we would have an additional option to the "wizard mode". The implementation of the wizard mode always displays the current workflow upon path transition. At least I have quite often the situation, that I need a "conditional wizard mode". This means, that the wizard mode depends on the new assigned person. If it's the same person as the current one, the workflow needs to be executed in a wizard mode. In all other cases it's not executed in a wizard mode. O (...)

Hi everyone, maybe I have a wrong idea how a multi value picker field is used in filters/groups in reports. Current situation: The picker field will store the selected values in the order they have been chosen. If you use this field as a group, every unique "string" will be used as a group. Example: Workflow instance 1: IT: Research & Development Workflow instance 2: IT: Research & Development;Quality Management Workflow instance 3: IT: Research & Development;Quality Managem (...)

Hi everyone, if you are going to use field references, process rules or similar in translations, these won't work once the process is transferred to another environment. See this thread for more details/images: https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/1149 In my opinion this is an error, so I created a ticket. The answer was, that this is the intended behavior. There I'm creating this user voice. :) Best regards, Daniel

We have license for only 2 webcon processes and purchased now another license. How can I add that new license?

Hi, I have this situation: - one main workflow - 4 different subworkflows that must start in parallel and wait until all subworkflows are done. I tried with Start a subworkflow action, but works for a single subworkflow. I don't want to use hyperlink. I must enter on the subworkflow in the start step. Is possible to start different subworkflows from a main workflow with SQL? I don't have an item list. I need to define an SQL action for each subworkflow? Can I have an example? Thank (...)

Hello everyone, having some experience in coding, makes it for me obvious that font used in text areas should be monospaced. Simply it's easier to read code, when it's monospaced. In attachment you can see and compare how that simple lines are better aligned, with monospaced font. When you edit some more complex SQL Queries, or when you deal with some custom HTML element - it would make life just easier. There is some question, how to deal with with those Webcon Variable blocks - how they shou (...)

When using objects in the code editor and hover on top of them it shows you the location (Very usefull), but it would lower the ammounts of clicks and speed up the development if by doubleclicking or rightclicking on those, the menu on the right would expand automaticaly.

MVP

A feature we think will save a lot of time for our developers would be the ability to double click the on the usages actions and open those actions in a popup. All kind of ussages (Fields, Busines entities and so on...).
