(...) Applies to version: 2020.1.x and above; author: Józef Cyran Introduction During normal use of WEBCON BPS, users can select which path (among those available) the instance will go through to reach the next step. However, when going through the system step, not the user but the system moves the instance to the next step after executing the appropriate action e.g. receiving a (...)
(...) the top of the form of a given application. Except for standard options such as “New”, “Save”, “Refresh” or “Delete”, you can also control the workflow path s directly from here. This article describes how to configure the application and add a list of available path s in the form menu. By default, buttons used to change the workflow steps are locate (...)
(...) Applies to version: 2021.1.x and above; author: Adrian Baszak “Quick path s” is a standard functionality allowing for the use of a transition path without editing the form as well as several instances at the same time. “Quick path s” can be found useful wherever a task is repeatable and it does not require completing any form fields by the user or verifying a large amount of (...)
(...) version: 2023 R3 and above; author: Krystyna Gawryał Introduction In the 2023 R3 version of BPS, WEBCON has implemented a new functionality that enhances security against unauthorized path transition .and prevents the execution of an unrequested task, such as signing a contract. If enabled, users who want to proceed to the next step must confirm their identity based on an additional au (...)
(...) Whenever I create a new step in the designer studio, I need to add a path too. The only steps which don't need at least one path are the final path s, which may have already been created by the wizard. So it would save a little bit of time for everyone if there would already be a path . :) Daniel
(...) Designer Studio gives the possibility to apply additional button styles. Adding the possibiltiy to define additional class attributes on the path properties would make the styling easier. The custom styles could be defined in the new html-field (for every process we would have to define it again) or much better, let it define in the themes editor! Update 06.04.2021 Apparently is now in back-log ht (...)
(...) Has anyone used the advanced settings or verification path option of the step "Wait for sub-workflows"? Advanced settings The default options are limited to all positive or one negative. So the parent workflow would continue as soon as the first sub workflow has been finished negativ. In my case it should wait until all sub workflow finished negative or positive. I thought about using the advanced se (...)
(...) After upgrading to most recent version 2021.1.3.205, a simple form rule definded at path parameters stopped working (the rule on the attached screen). If I change the rule just to CONFIRM['Something'] (without the IF), then it works, but with the IF it does not. It used to work in 2021.1.1.53. Anyone experiencing such an issue?
Hello, Currently it always just creates the new subworkflow instance and the user has to manually click on that instance to view it. Is it possible to redirect immediatle upon creation to this new instance of the subworkflow? Preferrably in the same tab.
(...) Is anyone else experiencing the issue? In my case it's ver. 2021.1.3.205 on webconapps.com. If I insert the tooltip text for a path it doesn't show. Is this a known bug or am I doing something wrong?
(...) Good morning WEBCON team, we installed version 2021.1.4.84 last week and i found all my emojis used on path buttons are no longer with color but since the update only black. If its possible, please give me back the colors in the next version ;-). Thanks, Bjoern Poller
One of our customers would like to print the pdf attachment when moving to the next step. As there is no action to send a document to a printer (apart from print a barcode label), i'm wondering if anybody implemented this.
(...) ugh an action. I tried doing that with the “Move workflow (SQL)” action. The query I used can be found in the Attachments. The table I get also looks fine, but I still get the Error "Incorrect column path _ID format". I already checked all of the IDs, they should all be fine. I used the following thread as a reference: https://alterpath s.com/wait-for-sub-workflows-step-advanced-configuration/ Does (...)
(...) Hi folks, My goal is to send an email when a comment has been entered in a instance. Sadly I have found no way to find out if there has been a new comment to trigger an email action on path traversal. I hope someone can help out. Best regards Fabia
(...) Hi everyone, did someone came across an option to verify, whether the save has been triggered by the save button or by a path transition in a form field extension logic class? I did check to no avail: - Public properties - Non-public properties - Passing {CURRENT_path } inside the configuration. Unfortunately it was empty too :( Does someone has another idea? Best regards, Daniel
(...) Hi community! We are getting some data from external system via REST API. Specifically workflow elements are created and there is a default path for saving workflow element. This can be easily done with the well known POST endpoint: /api/data/v4.0/db/{dbId}/elements Now we are facing the challenge to check if there are already elements in our system, to avoid duplicates. This can also eas (...)
(...) defined a template, put fields and grids in, and lokked at the preview. Whatever i try, if I test with an instance that is currently in a step that is avi for MailApproval, Webcon adds the available path -buttons to the end of the email. This will confuse people that are only meant to be notified a lot. We are using 2021.1.4.36 - if it has been fixed I have to live with it until we finally can updat (...)
(...) Can you add path button style options (in Global parameters - appearance) for every path color available in a workflow diagram (8 colors) ? So, changing a path color should apply corresponding button style in the path . This would greatly improve development time, in a big workflow entering path button style for every path is time consuming. Also, this will keep colors consistent between workflow (...)
(...) Dear Community, how about adding an icon to path button? Something similar to adding an icon to menu button. I think it could be very useful and could improve user experience in this matter. Best.
(...) o all, I know this as been asked in the forum, but I have an issue with the action Move workflow. I've read the answers for another user, but I think I can't use the example on the https://alterpath s.com/massive-update-of-sub-workflows-in-webcon-bps/ because for my case I have 5 different chains in the Child workflow and each of them as their own Complete and Cancel step. This was working pri (...)
