Functionalities like import/export applications, update plugin-packages and the generation of process documentations are only available within Designer Studio. Doing things manually tend to end up in inconsistencies. E.g. when packaging a new release, we might forget to update the documentation.

Hi Björn Not sure when the function "CONTENT AS BASE64" had been introduced. If not available in version 2021.1.4.154, then you can use SQL-Server to convert binary content to base64 https://medium.com/falafel-software/t-sql-easy-base64-encoding-and-decoding-872ad184bd7e I checked some of m

Hi Tom I've created some actions handling attachments. Adding an attachment should be quite easy by accessing the attachment via the context. E.g. args.Context.CurrentDocument.Attachments.AddNew(this.Configuration.AttachmentName, filledPdf); The variable filledPdf is of type byt

Good to hear that other have the same challenges. I raised a user voice a while ago that points in a similar direction (it is under review). https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/228?page=1#m1694 In my opinion, when the comment check-box is selected on the path and comment field ist empt

Hi Piotr Thank you for sharing your idea. Using images is an interesting approach i didn't thought about. At the moment im talking to the requirements team to go for a template without checkboxes. If they want to stick to the checkboxes, your approach is at the moment the easiest way to solve

We are having a document template with check boxes which should be checked/unchecked based on form field values. Does anyone have experience how to achieve this? I've been trying the approach of using wingdings 2 which basically worked but failed during the conversion to pdf.

Hi Dean At the partner day, dashboard wide filters were announced for WEBCON BPS 2023. Check out the documents in the partner portal. Very likely the reason, why your post is marked as added to the backlog. Best regards Markus

You can use the builtin functions "Attachments Count" or "Attachment Exists" on either a validation rule or as an additional path validation.

Massactions in reports are quite usefull, but they only support path transitions. There are cases, where you would like to apply changes to workflow elements which are in different steps. For those cases i would be great having the option to just update the element rather than moving to anothe

When adding or removing a user from a group, you can choose the synchronization mode. Synchronously or asychronously. I prefer using asynch otherwise to action can consume a too long time. So you don't have to worry about synchronization, WEBCON does it for you ;)

Local BPS groups you can compare with SharePoint Groups WEBCON BPS used ages ago. We are using BPS groups in all of our projects because we are more flexible during developing/testing phase. For example, with AD groups it is almost impossible to test whether users have access to the right workflo

Did you consider the creation of BPS groups for each customer rather than users? For each customer you could have a group for modifying and one for read only permissions and use those on all your workflow elements you need to secure. It would be easier to maintain the members of the groups, tha

Which WEBCON BPS Version are you using? I don't know when this feature had been introduced.

There are customers out there, who implement soap-services with query string parameters. The Url often exceeds the length of 255 characters, which is currently the limit in the configurable url for the soap connection (should be extendend with the next release of WEBCON BPS). Whilst additional

We are using WEBCON BPS 2022.1.3.45 and should execute some soap actions to to SAP. System.Security.Authentication.AuthenticationException: Authentication failed because the remote party sent a TLS alert: 'HandshakeFailure'. Submitting requests via Postman works fine. It seems to be a probl

Designing Word-Templates is quite straight forward. However to check to look of the final document you have to run the action somewhere in the process. So this can be quite time consuming. Having a preview functionality would add a great value to WEBCON BPS. As we already have the option to loa

There all always questions whether we can change the menu of an application or not. It would be great having a Customnavigtion node under the presentation node. We should be able to create two level menus with an icon and whether the link should open in same tab or a new one.

Please have a look at the concept proposed by Daniel Krüger. https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2021/path-button-styling As long as we are only able to apply styles to paths this is the best solution.

Hi Ingo Did you try to restart the portal (IIS) and the Webcon Workflow Service? I had a similar exception a couple of times and IIS reset and restart of the workflow service did the trick.
