Hi, in the field matrix it’s sufficient to set a form field group as readonly to set also all of its child fields as readonly - respective disabled. Unfortunately the disable/enable function in the form field editor doesn’t accept form field groups. It would be much more convenient if a whole group could also be disabled (readonly) and enabled instead of having to handle all child form fields

Referencing also to: https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/8245 We are integrating WEBCON BPS with APIs that follow RFC 6749 OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework and explicitly support the Resource Owner Password Credentials Grant (grant_type=password). These APIs (in our case: core banking / backend systems) require both: client authentication (client_id / client_secret via Basic Auth) and us (...)

Hi, I tried various approaches to return an actual NULL value via Execute Automation, this wasn't possible.

A practical use case is a Save Draft" path where the workflow instance is assigned to the current user = author without validation. In this scenario, the instance should only be visible in reports to the author or (...)
We need a dedicated Checkbox Field type that functions exactly like a Choice Field but provides a native checkbox-list UI. Currently, business users designing in Designer Desk intuitively use "Choice Lists" for checkboxes, only to realize later that they lack central data management. This forces us to either explain technical trade-offs or implement custom SDK solutions to get both: a central D

Suggestion Ideally, **Attachments should behave more like a regular form element** regarding Form Rules. support ing functions such as `ENABLE`, `DISABLE`, `SHOW`, `HIDE`, `MARK REQUIRED` and `MARK NOT REQUIRED` for the Attachments panel would allow attachment behavior to be controlled dynamically without breaki (...)
Problem Description: When importing data from an Excel file into an Item List, Choice fields set to Autocomplete mode with the option "Allow values outside of data source" enabled do not accept values that are missing from the underlying dictionary. As a result, these cells are left empty, or the import fails due to key/value matching errors. Proposed Import Logic: When processing the Exc

Proposed solution: Add an option to the Picker Yes/No field to render it as an explicit Yes/No selection, for example: ○ Yes ○ No The field should support three states: no selection = NULL / not answered Yes = true No = false This would also allow the standard Required validation to ensure that the user has explicitly made a decision. The ex (...)
Hi, I suggest to add SQL filters to be configured at the Report View level, similar to the existing SQL filter functionality in the Data Source tab. This would enable a common SQL filter to be defined at the report level while applying additional, view-specific SQL filters. Benefits: - Reuse a common data source across multiple views. - Apply individual SQL filters without creating sepa
