External content by Daniel Krüger; April 30, 2025 ;  The original post has appeared on daniels-notes.de   While WEBCON BPS has a Gantt chart for absence workflows, we can't use it for custom workflow instances.  If you need a Gantt chart and are fine with it, that it works only on a dashboard, you can take a look at this post.

External content by Daniel Krüger; April 19, 2025 ;  The original post has appeared on daniels-notes.de   I’ve redesigned the Gantt chart implementation to make use of the standard filter widget. Even if you are not interested in the Gantt chart itself, my approach to reuse the filter widget may be interesting for you. The new post focuses on the difference fro

Hello everyone! I'm looking for some ideas how to implement the following scenario: - client has approximately 500k customers (a mix of companies and persons) - each customer can have one or more banking accounts - each account can have one or more connected credit cards I would like to give the users the option to search for a customer using data from each of the categories mentioned above.

(...) I haven't found any documentation how to access the current form data. What I know is, that all the form data is kept in a json property called liteDate.liteModel as a json-object as you can see when calling /api/nav/db/{dbId}/app/{appId}/element/{wfdid}/desktop I guess that this liteModel must be available via javascript. I'm wondering, because there is this form from the offical 2021 release pap (...)

(...) It would be nice if there were the following changes to the form rule alerts/confirmation functions: a) Modal dialog They could reuse the modal dialog from the "single row edit" instead of using the browser integrated alert/confirmation window. This would result in a more consistent user experience. Of course it would be nice to set title, body and button texts but I would be fine with setting the bod (...)

There's an option to switch from horizontal to vertical layout if you click on AND/OR operators. Could this be extended to all other operators, too. :) This would reduce the scrolling and therefore improve readability a lot.

(...) Hello all, I want to set up an action to Add a new list element in a Sharepoint list where my URL will be different based on a form field. But when I'm selecting the list where I want to add my new elements, we can only choose the ones in that site content. Does anyone have any idea on this? Thank you all!!!

(...) What is the easiest way to detect whether a form is in edit or display mode? I need this to show/hide fields. Any ideas?

(...) Hello, I'm working on a form of employee's declaration, which should contain a long text (an inform ation for the employee, mandatory for legal reasons). What is a proper way for placing these types of data on a form ? Is there a way other than creating an attribute and assigning default value (assuming that the text will be constant).

(...) Hi, I am a new guy here and I just started with webcon designer. I need help with mathematical operation on a form . I want to subtract two dates to get number of days beetwen this two dates. I know that I can use "datediff" function but my point is to get this 'dynamically'. When user starts to fill form , he type date 1 and date 2 and below that he will see in third field numbers of days. How to achi (...)

(...) Hi everyone, most of the time an error raised by the "Validate form " action can be fixed by the current user. It would be great if we could have a new configuration option "Focus field" where you can set an expression/field. When the error is displayed on the form the "Set Focus" action is executed and the configured value selected. I assume that the "Set focus" action already toggles collapsed gro (...)

(...) Hi community! We are currently facing a new requirement, where it should be possible to change the browser language with a series of buttons in the form (approximately 20 different languages). Every click on a language button should change UI labelling on current form to selected button language. e.g. [German] [English] [French] ...

Hi everyone. I've prepared my first prototype in Designer Desk and now I'm trying to test the workflow (before publishing the process in Designer Studio). When I'm trying to go to the next step I get an error.

Hi, I have noticed that you can create multiple content databases on one Webcon installation. Why and how would you actually use that? It would be great if you could segregate the instances of different business entities in different databases, but I am not sure that is possible. What else do you know about this subject of multiple content databases on the same Webcon portal. Thanks, Razvan

(...) Hi all! I was trying to see if it's possible to send a form , that would be triggered in webcon by the user, with a list of fields and after the user submits it l, it is integrated in webcon. For example, you are creating your customer list, you send the form for the customer (user without a license), the person puts all the details and when its submitted, the inform ation is automatically integrated (...)

(...) Hi everyone, I'm currently creating quite a lot of "validate form " actions. For example: - Date one must be after date two - Date must be in the future - Integer value must be positive These are implemented as "validate form " action since I prefer validation on the server rather than on the client only. The draw back is, that it's a poor usability. So I "recreate" the same validations as form rules (...)

(...) Hi all, I'm having a problem in Studio with a form Validation rule using SQL. I have an item list that is populated with lines if the user select a Sales Order in another field or manually filled if there is no inform ation on the SO. There is a column that is mandatory to be filled whenever the item list has any rows and I tried many examples to construct a validation form rule in order to ha (...)
