Hey everyone, I have two reports — one for Vessels and another for Shipments. On the Shipments report, I’ve set a URL filter like this: VESSEL_CODE = vesselCode Now I’d like to link these two together. Basically, I want to add a column on the Vessels report that links directly to the Shipments report, automatically filtered by the vessel’s code (using the URL parameter). Ideally, the solution should also work when exporting/importing the process between test and production environmen (...)
Hi everyone, I’ve recently encountered the following problem: I have a form with a picker field where I select a customer. After choosing a value, several data rows display information related to this customer. Some of them use SQL queries, while two use REST Web Service data sources. The data rows that fetch data using SQL reload correctly whenever the “client” attribute value changes. However, the ones that use REST do not refresh. I had a similar issue with data tables in the past (...)

Hi everyone, I’m trying to set up a connection from WEBCON BPS (2025 R2) to an Oracle database, but the documentation I found is quite limited. It only shows fields like user, password, and service name, but there’s nothing about host, port, a full connection string, or any driver requirements. Apologies if I missed something obvious — maybe the documentation is out there and I just couldn't find it. So my questions are: How exactly does WEBCON connect to an Oracle database? Do I need to ins (...)
Where can I find information in the database about the licenses used?
Hi. Since we switched from V2021 to V2025 I noticed that it seems to be no longer possible to use the content of a form field (unsaved data) in a SQL query (see pic). It just delivers "empty". Is there a workaround? I frequently used the data of form fields to control actions and so on. This is a major degradation ! Kind regards Klaus
I wanted to make New SQL Data Source with data type: Organization Structure to use it to my holiday process. When I use original source from AD -> CEO and Managers can see all of their employess. But people in each team don't see their coworkers from another teams. So I wanted to make a new SQL Source to improve Gant Chart in Holiday Process. I used data from Workers Profile in BPS. Everything looks fine but there is one problem - CEO don't see everyone - he can see only his profile. (...)
Hello! We recently had an issue where the UserPrincipalName (UPN) of Active Directory users was changed, which is causing problems with Webcon. The system uses the UserPrincipalName in the ‘CreatedBy’ field to track who created each instance. As a result, users can no longer see the instances they created before their UPN was changed. One way to fix this is by manually updating the CreatedBy field for each record, but this is very time-consuming. Additionally, users can't see their previousl (...)
Hi all, looking for ideas on a startup/warm-up issue. Context: • At night our Webcon instance seems to “go to sleep”. • In the morning the first user login usually wakes it up, but it takes a bit. • Since last week it often doesn’t wake up like before and throws timeouts. Symptom: • First login after the night stalls, then I see this in Event Viewer. --- --- --- Message=The request channel timed out attempting to send after 00:01:00... InnerException: Message=The HTTP request (...)
Hi, I'd like to ask if you know of any ways to avoid losing WCAG tags when converting a Word file (WCAG-compliant) to PDF. Attached is the report from the WCAG compliance scanner for the PDF file.
Hi together, could it be that it is no longer possible to drop a mail into an Webcon Element (Attachments) directly from the New Outlook (M365) ? Or is this a matter of settings? Version is 2025.1.1.152 Kind regards Klaus
I closed my initial thread because I thought I solved the problem but I was wrong. So I ask the question again: My Microsoft Word application have some specific settings for Track Changes (Insertions are color only and deletions are hidden). These settings are carried over when saving the word document as PDF. My problem is that the track changes settings are not carried over when I use the webcon action "Convert Word to PDF". It uses the standard track changes settings. How can I change th (...)
My Microsoft Word application have some specific settings for Track Changes (Insertions are color only and deletions are hidden). These settings are carried over when saving the word document as PDF. My problem is that the track changes settings are not carried over when I use the webcon action "Convert Word to PDF". It uses the standard track changes settings. How can I change this behavior? Thanks for any help Never mind. New changes are converted correctly. Existing changes were not c (...)

Hello everyone, I have a JavaScript form rule with parameters that lives in a script tag in an HTML form field. And I have the issue that I can't figure out what button combination I need to press or where to click to edit the parameters. With business rules, it's in a context menu, but within the expression editor on the HTML field, I can't figure it out. And I could not find anything on the forum or documentation. I'd appreciate any advice.
Business example: We have a process that many people can access, but only the administrator and the creator can edit it. Other users would like to clone existing documents to save time, but they can only do this for documents they are the author of. Is there any reasonable workaround to let users without edit rights use such an action? P.S. I have to use the SQL option because of position lists in the instance.
Hi Everyone, I’ve just started implementing business processes in WebCon BPS and couldn’t find the answer to my question on the forum. Business case: It’s an overtime management process. In one attribute, the user provides the overtime date, and then in the item list they provide additional data, including the employee’s name, start time (hours and minutes), and end time. I would like to give the user an easy way to set the time. I could use a Date/Time column, set provided date and a (...)
Hello, I would like to allow users export data from item list which shall be in readonly mode. Right now Export to Excel feature hides when I check the item list to readonly mode. Is it a feature / bug? Is it planned to be changed? Does any workaround exist, except the showing data table with the same result (and e.g. my query returns over 1k rows which is data table limit). I am aware that the form slow downs but is not crucial in that case :) Best Regards, Dominik
Webcon BPS authorization with AD. I need to change the UPN for users, but after changing the UPN, the user loses access to all documents in Webcon created before the UPN change. I want to make the change in batches, so I can't do it for all users at once. How do I make the change for specific users?
Hi everyone, did anyone reuse an existing connection a plugin using the ConfigEditableConnectionID attribute? When I searched for the attribute name I only found references to the automatically generated documentation. In my case I wanted to reuse a REST connection or more specific, the authentication.
