(...) Hello everyone In a process I run a cyclic action in the global action s. This action contains a "Start a subworkflow (SQL)". When the subworkflow action is executed I just get the message 'Incorrect syntax near '}'.' in the *Last error* field. As seen on the screenshot There is no '}' in the SQL query of the subworkflow action... So now I am facing the mystery where exactly this error occurs at all and (...)
Hello, I'm facing a new challenge, maybe someone already had to deal with it and will be able to help :) I've created some time ago process for handling Recruitments, which connects two departments - HR and IT. On starting form, there are yes/no fields for required permissions/equipment for a new person. * Access to system X * Access to system Y * Laptop * Wireless mouse After the pr
(...) vals (e.g. daily) to see whether it is today or in the past and then send an email to the author of the instance. However, I don't really know how to do this. I assume that I can do this with a global action - Cycle Action. But I don't know which Webcon action I can use for this. (What I already have is a "BPS internal view" of all instances from the process. With this I could filter on the reminder dat (...)
(...) Hi there. Couldn't find it but is there an option to create global action s like with global business/form rules? I would like to create a Hyperlink action once and be able to use it in every Webcon application. Thanks.
(...) Hello, I have a global action that allows users to Generate a copy of the form. This action worked with Read only access before we upgraded to version 2023.1.2.124. Now it is giving an error message to users and when I looked up the error it states users need elevated access.("User has not sufficient permission to edit WorkFlow instance"). Is there any work around to this or maybe a different action that woul (...)
(...) Hey, I have a problem with calling a REST action via timeout or global action . When performing a global action moving a document a path with a rest message there is an error.... When a document is pushed via a path where a REST action has been configured,... a problem occurs. When I manually press the button on the form, the message sends and there are no problems.... ver. 2023.1.3.76
Hello, I have set up a hotmailbox - Add to elements based on e-mail content. I am saving the BodyContent to a multiple lines of text form field called BodyContent - set always.

Hello, I have a global cyclical action that does some things. And in "Error handling" section i've got an automation that sends a customized email It was working fine in 2022, stopped working after upgrading it to the newest 2023 version. Currently it is impossible to do such scenario. I've also tried invoking a REST API but it also fails. Those automation put somewhere else (not in cyclical
Hello, I have an external API: GET https://domain.com/api/employee/GetAll I have created a process using REST API that get token, then get Employee. (START - FINISH) GetAll - Retrieve the employees list. The HTTP verb for this method is GET. When i run the process manually, it works. I have created a global cyclical action that starts my workflow (every day run), but it doesn't work: R
Hi, From an administrator's point of view, it would be very helpful to add the ability to add global automation error handling. By this I mean the ability to enable such an option in the global configuration and, for example, add an email notification action about automation errors in the context of the whole system. In the email it would be possible to use process/step variables and specif
(...) Version 2023.1.3.29 A few weeks ago, I encountered a problem with a global action (on start cyclic) in an older process. It stopped working (unfortunately, I do not have a screenshot of the error message). Restarting did not resolve the issue. I noticed that the execution count had reached 65,536. Even after stopping and restarting (which reset the count to 0), it still didn't work. I had to create a ne (...)
Hi, at the moment we have to decide whether we want to send a standard or custom notification (mail). While some users receive only a few mails this way, other receive to many and want to receive only a summary on a scheduled interval. While we can and have implement a configuration for an application on process level this is still limited and makes the automations less readable while the opt
Hi everyone, Currently i'm working with two applications, where one of them starts a workflow in second one. Let's call them Room Reservation, and Food Order. I can request different types of food orders - breakfast, dinner, snack using Food Order application. I can reserve a hotel room using Room Reservation application. What i want to achieve is add the possibility to request a breakfa
(...) Hi, I can see that in Cyclical global action there is possibility to use Change Field Value action. But I can't select any field on configuration tab. Does anyone know what is the problem? How I should use it? My business case is that I need to update a field which is based on some dictionary. Simply task - replace one value with another. It is needed to comply with some other needs and keep the data (...)
Hi, I would like to ask if anyone has encountered such an error when trying to use a global business rule with parameters. The error occurred on version 2025.1.1.152. Message:Due to the current state of the object, the operation is invalid. ------------------------------------------------------- Call path ------------------------------------------------------- w WebCon.WorkFlow.Business
Hi, unfortunately there seems to be no configuration for output parameters in PowerShell script invoke actions. This is much needed to get back calculated values, created logs or whatever else. The workaround from Daniel is not really convenient: https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2021/retrieve-ps-variable-value It would be really nice if one could define input and output parameters like in
Hi, it would be really amazing if one could choose the credentials that have been used for "Active Directory Actions Configuration" in System Settings in the configuration of a "Run a PowerShell script" action. It's a mess having to copy & paste the same credentials every time. And if one day the password needs to be changed all action configurations have to be found and updated. Therefore i
Hi, After upgrading from the 2022 version to the latest 2025 version, I am experiencing an issue with the URL for REST services. The address and API endpoint are stored as global constants. For example, the URL: https://mock.webcon.bps:3317 For example, the endpoint: /domains/customercommunication/internal/v1/message Webcon returns an error during the sending action due to an incor
Hi, At first the challenge - I'm currently reaching max # of Choose fields in my process. Trying to avoid future troubles I'm adding new workflows in a new process, and this leads to massive amount of duplicates of: business rules, constants, automations (fortunately not form rules). Let's say i have a business rule which contains some users call it 'Manager Role' - inside of the app, there
(...) process each item from this list (document reference number) --> Another workflow from step A to B. As you know, BPS wasn't really designed for such operations, but I'm thinking of doing it using a global action that moves workflows in batches of, say, 200 items. I'd love to hear your experiences in similar cases: do you use global action s or sub-workflows? Or any other ideas? I'd appreciate any sugge (...)
