(...) Hi, it would be nice if one could not only chose "CREATE rule " in the context menu of a field supporting rule s. An option "CREATE GLOBAL rule " would be helpful if we want to turn a "local" rule to a "global" one. It is clear that not all options in a "local" rule can be turned to a global one but there are cases where there would be no problem. Kind Regards Sébastien

(...) Hi, while we can create business rule s which act similar to table valued / scalar functions, we can't pass the columns/data to them. The inner business rule s are executed before the outer SQL command is executed. This comes in really handy in a lot of cases but also has it's limitation and will require creating repetitive code. I would suggest the following: Create a new "type" "SQL function (...)

(...) Hi. we've implemented some global form rule s e.g. a developer on screen mode that displays meta data of fields (instead of turning on dev tools) - a knowledge base article will follow later. Small work in progress preview teaser in the attached screenshot. ;) Right now it is necessary to add this global form rule to all main form behavior sections manually to get this loaded. It would be grea (...)

(...) PS based on data retrieved from another system. I already have an endpoint that returns the required data. To achieve this, I planned to use a global action (cyclical). First, I created a business rule that fetches the data using a REST API. Then, I wrote an SQL query that utilized this business rule to retrieve the data. However, when testing it, I keep encountering the following error: WebC (...)

(...) Hi, it when the "Incorrect rule configuration" name is thrown, it would really help, if the name object would include the parent object. I currently get this error: Incorrect rule configuration for object "Site". This got me really confused because there wasn't any rule on the field. In the end I found another "Site" which is a column in an item list. Incorrect rule configuration for obje (...)

(...) Hello everyone, I have a JavaScript form rule with parameters that lives in a script tag in an HTML form field. And I have the issue that I can't figure out what button combination I need to press or where to click to edit the parameters. With business rule s, it's in a context menu, but within the expression editor on the HTML field, I can't figure it out. And I could not find anything on the foru (...)

(...) - 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 rule s, constants, automations (fortunately not form rule s). Let's say i have a business rule which contains some users call it 'Manager Role' - inside of the app, there are many manager roles, but lets (...)

(...) Hi there, is there an easy way to get the ID of the last path passed? I want to create a rule that decides whether an action template is executed or not, depending on which path the element "travelled" last. Kind regards, Klaus

(...) to update a related workflow and I want to use the “Update related workflow instance” action. However, I have a question. On the related workflow instance, the attribute I want to change has a form rule defined on value change — and I don’t want that rule to be triggered. I’ve done some tests and it seems that the form rule is not triggered when the instance is updated this way, but it might have (...)

(...) Hi, short: Business rule text parameter string values only containing digits seem to get casted to an integer value in WEBCON. long: Declaring a VARCHAR variable in SQL as a string like '001' is returned as string. If 001 is replaced by a text parameter in between single quotes its value '001' turns to 1 as integer. I would expect that a string value '001' remains a string when using it as a (...)

(...) Hi, right now app, process and workflow's associated form type user privileges can only be set for users and/or groups. It would be great if global business rule s could be used too. A filter could be set that only global business rule s with return type „user list“ can be used. This way e.g. a business admin could manage users in a dictionary and dynamic privileges would be possible with a busin (...)

(...) Hi, unfortunatelly global "objects" (business rule s, form rule s, constants, automations) have no app binding functionality as data sources have. Some global constants, business or form rule s and automations may contain critical data (e.g. api tokens) that should not be useable by all devs with studio access. An option to set an object as protected and enabling an app binding to allow the usage w (...)

(...) Hi, form fields in the Objects tab of the form rule editor don’t get displayed in standard mode. Only when switching to JS mode the form fields appear. In the form rule editor of a Validate form action the form fields appear in the Objects tab. More details here in the conversation with Jacek: https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/8410 It would be more consistent and convenient if for (...)

(...) Hi Is there any way to use business rule references when generating HTML templates? Something like {BRD:63630e35-0f8d-455e-ac6f-df8017e01c56}. I see that you can reference them in Word documents, and it works for me, e.g., {DOCPROPERTY BPSGUID_BRD:d5280b12-fad7-4dd6-9031-4b74f121c1c2_numer2}. How can I use this in HTML? And another question: how do I map arguments to a business rule already us (...)

(...) types a value but doesn’t explicitly confirm the selection, the value still appears in the field after saving the form or moving along the workflow path. However, the problem is that the value change rule s are not triggered in this case, which often results in the form not being populated correctly. Has anyone encountered this behavior or found a reliable workaround?

For more information, see Task assignment - business rule s. The use of postbacks and form rule s is one method of implementing the automatic column completion based on others. You can use the floating-point number as a form field.   Fig. 2. (...)

(...) PLN” represents the net value of an invoice in PLN (at the exchange rate of the selected currency on the date of the invoice). This field is set by the “Set Nett Amount in PLN” form rule which uses the “Nett amount in PLN” business rule . The business rule returns a floating-point number calculated with an SQL query. The SQL query returns the result of multiplying the v (...)
