Hi Daniel You're addressing a problem that can be quite troublesome on a running system. It appeared to me once, that after quite a lot of changes, that a text field showed a value i never entered. This was because a previously used field had been removed and later a new field had been mapped t

Hi Martin As we lost the tender, i did not dig deeper into this topic. Maybe i will come back to this in future. There are also questions about how and where to integrate the reports. In my opinion, there are not enough possibilities to extend/customize WEBCON BPS at the moment.

We have the requirement, that text from a rich text enabled multiline field should be displayed in the word document together with its formatting. Does anyone have experiences how this can be achieved?

As you mention that you have thousands of items, start them in batches , otherwise they will all be started within one transaction.... You can do this by using the TOP n in your SQL Statement. Maybe you can start with top TOP 100 or event TOP 50. Depends a bit how long it takes to start a workflo

The pop-up search window gives the possibility to search in a specific field or in all fields. We've found many cases where an "advanced search" mode would be extremely helpful. To achive this, the configuration section of the choice field, should be extended with an additional checkbox column "

Happy to see, that other users have similar requirement as i have. To pop-up window for values is available in within mass actions reports. I raised a users voice about this more than one year ago. It is currently under review. https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/228

Our scenario: We are sending a prefilled pdf document to an external user with the instruction to complete the form and return it together with a copy of the id/passport. Which could be one or more pdfs or images. We've configured a hot-mail-box to check for e-mail having a pdf with a valid bar

You can add the parameter ?menucollapsed=1 to your portal url.

You write "We have to update some columns in a workflow dependent on other columns from the same workflow item". As it is a field of the same workflow item, why don't you use the "Change value of a single field" action? Or configure a rule you call in "Form rule to be executed on value change

I had the same issue, when i had to show elements of two workflows having one or more steps of same name. Then filtering does not work properly even when you've chosen both steps. I ended up to name the steps differently to avoid this problem. @Webcon: Could this be a bug?

Currently there is no way to add custom navigation elements in the navigation panel. But you could raise a user voice to ask for the possibility of adding custom navigation elements on application and/or global level We usually restrict the visibility of dictionaries to a small group of administ

Global css styles definable in the theme is one thing i'm waiting for a long time. https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/41/15 It would be the icing of the cake.

I would go even a step further and suggest to display the difference to a certain version right on the form. We recently worked on an RFP where they wanted to display certain changes/differences on the form. I did not verify, but i think for the time this feature is not available it should be do

Hi Martin Daniel Krüger shows how to implement uniform button styling in this post: https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2021/path-button-styling The same approach could also be used for fields. However, i would prefer having to possibility to add custom css classes to field name/value in additi

We usually have one Prod and a Test environment installed on the customers infrastructure. Sometimes the customers do have a third pipeline where we can install the Dev environment. If not, we usually set up a single server Dev environment in our infrastructure that matches the customers version of

Wished i had this function just a few weeks ago. By using the Replace values option to delete a row, apart from having new values for DET_ID, also the history gets confusing because you can hardly see, which row had been removed.

Hi Daniel Thank you for having a quick review. Best regards Markus

Hi Kamil We are having some administrative tools where we don't want to use app registration. Browser based authentication would make the usage easier. Like PnP powershell has this option for authentication. In the link below you will find an extended version of the rest-api dataimporter, whe

Appart from not knowing why you still want to use SharePoint-Lists when you've got the WEBCON webparts, you could achieve it this way: 1. Use an itemlist with the fields car/person/manager as technical field and fill in the values based on the form values. To fill the values you can use an sql st

We created a set of powershell cmdlets to connect to a portal, start/update/delete workflows and adding attachments. Inspired by the -UseWebLogin parameter off the Connect-PnPOnline cmdlet i extended our powershell cmdlets with a use weblogin feature. Fiddler and a bit of research in the web pr
