Hi everyone, we had some racing conditions, when the users switched fast between instances in the task view or previews in reports. This was caused by form rules which used G_ variables which were no longer available, the view/desktop endpoint hadn't send a response yet but a JavaScript form ru

Just in case someone find's this post. I've created a PoC. You could modify it to implement your personal solution fulfilling all your requirements. https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2023/password-field

In case someone is finding this thread and wondering how the queued subworkflow would look like.

Hi Kamil, thanks for the reminder. I tend to use primarily the "path transition" option, so I automatically get a new version. Using the operation mode "only action" would make a difference. @All Thanks for your input and I'm sorry about my delayed replies. There's always something interrupt

Hi Rastafin, I'm not aware of any such standard functionality. Maybe you can create a plugin and utilizing Aspose.Cells to generate a pdf. https://docs.aspose.com/cells/net/convert-spreadsheet-to-pdf-in-aspose-cells/ Best regards, Daniel

Hi everyone, maybe someone else is using some internal JavaScript objects and if this is the case, check whether you are using window.initialModel and make adjustments. In R2 it's gone. Most of the objects of the initialModel can be accessed via the liteModel. /api/nav/db/${parameters.dbI

Hi Razvan, we already updated our sandbox. :) https://docs.webcon.com/docs/2023R2/Default Best regards, Daniel

Hi Kamil, yes, using a timeout would be an option if the workflow instance would be short lived. In my case they may be there for months or even longer. Using the timeout would create a new version each time as you mentioned. That's not something I want to have. :) Best regards, Daniel

Hi Rastafin, I'm sorry for the misleading reply. I wanted to ask you, to print the file via Excel as pdf. If it looks similar to the generated WEBCON preview you could test to define a different page layout and see, whether the preview would use this too. Best regards, Daniel

Hi Radek, maybe you can use the form rule "Mark required" instead of the field matrix / requirdness definition on the field. The form rules aren't applied to the REST API while the others are. Best regards, Daniel

Hi ruthw, unfortunately I don't have a 2023.1.1.56 environment. We just updated to 2023.1.2.44. It works without issues. Nevertheless I would recommend to use the id instead of the name. Just in case it changes. For example when you need to add another language. We have also a fixed value li

Hi Rastafin, Can you check whether printing the excel as pdf would look similar? Best regards, Daniel

Hi Karol, hi Maks, I'm running on WEBCONAPPS, so SQL and PowerShell actions are not available. What I could do is a slight modification of Maks idea of the csv. Instead of a csv file I could use multiline text fields to store the concatenated values, of the DET_ID, and totals. Outside the

Hi Karol, you have understood it correctly. I would like to use the idea as this would allow me to use a "filtered foreach loop" using "any collection". In my case it's not an option. I don't have another database I can write to nor can I create one. Best regards, Daniel

Hi everyone, I'm wondering what would be the best approach for the following use case. There may be between 300 and 500 active claim workflow instances. The costs for these claims are tracked in the ERP system. The total of the costs needs to be in the claim, so that it can be used in reports.

Hi, in an Azure Active Directory environment it would be great to add an option to the people field which would configure it, whether external /guest users are selectable at all. Default value should be false. A customer worked around this by limiting the selection to a BPS group and addin

Hi ruthw, the error messages refers to a boolean value. So, it should be the if condition. You are comparing the field value to the text value „yes“. The value is written in cursive so the system interprets it as text. If your field is a Boolean field you can either omit the comparison or you u

Hi Paweł, regarding how to "convert" the comments to a data table, you can take a look here: https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2023/comments-to-data-table-and-pdf In my case I used them in an HTML to PDF template scenario but this shouldn't make any difference. Best regards, Daniel

Hi Maks, the most conform way would probably be to mark the boolean as archived and Update the data using a global cyclical action as suggested. This way you would see the translated value in the current version and the original ones in the history. Marking the field as archive will also preve

Hi Dariusz, yes that's right. The "bps_user" without a login exists only in one database and you "can't" access another database with it. Even if you would have the same user name in two databases it wouldn't work. When I researched this a bit I came to a blog that this would be possible by
