Dear WebCon Team, we just updated to 2021.1.4.55 and recognized, that the so long working function "Attachments Count" does not work properly any longer on the intital step of a workflow as long there is no Instance ID. For Example I would like to validate if there is an attachment uploaded or not (see picture). If I do a path on the step itself --> Instance ID --> the rule works fine!!! I think
Hello community! Maybe this is a very basic question, but I am asking it anyway ;-) I tried out OnTimeOut action, but after some experiments it is very unclear to me, how this is expected to work. I added one time out action with Type: Minute, Interval (minutes): 1, Repetition count: Infinite and 1 action below which basically changes the value of a single field. My expectation was, that this
I have a workflow that increments based on FY (ours is not the same as calendar year). ie FF22-#### With the new year, I see that the instance numbering wasn't setup quite right. The userbase needs the instance numbering to reflect FFFY-####, the #### increments throughout the year. Since the app was using "Instance numbering per year", as soon as we rolled into 2022 it reset from 42 to 0. I ne

(...) n The workflow service role – “Folder monitoring” will check files and process the barcode located in it. If the file is correctly recognized, then it is attached to the list of attachments of the workflow instance associated with the barcode. Also, if the instance is in the “Waiting for scan” step at the moment, then it is automatically moved to the next step through the “default path”. More information -> (...)
(...) Hi everyone, with the advent of BPS 2022 during the save/path transition of an workflow instance it will be checked, whether the latest version of a process matches the version whit which the instance has been retrieved. If you save the process in Designer Studio it will get a new version and you have to reload the page. You can no longer execute paths or even save the workflow instance . While I can understa (...)
Hi all! We have a workflow (service order) containing an item list, which represents a shopping basket. We have a workflow containing several sales locations, which can create service orders for their location. Every time the shopping basket changes we need to send (delta) reservations to an external system with a SOAP request. So far so good, this is a common scenario ;-) What we
(...) imal1 = WFD_AttDecimal2 * WFD_AttDecimal3. Sounds trivial, but it isn't, especially in a SaaS system, where 'Run an SQL procedure' is missing. Another approach for us was to use 'Update related workflow instance ' action, but this approach obviously leads to nowhere (maybe this is a bug or document context is missing here). We tried this in a minimal example, just using current instance id as value in acti (...)
I have a scenario where i need to get a variable amount of CSV files as attachments into a running process instance. The problem is that these CSV files are created by an outside system and can only be identified by the path in which they are stored and the creation date of the file. I can find these files with a PowerShell action but i have no clue how to add them as attachments to my workflow.
Hi, I'm creating the workflow for registering agreements with some typical fields: counterparty, agreement no., value, signature date - let's call it Agreement Register (AR). To avoid manually register all necessary data I've also created another workflow (Import Agreements Data) with item list, which is populated using excel file and on entry of default path a subworkflow AR should start using a

Massactions in reports are quite usefull, but they only support path transitions. There are cases, where you would like to apply changes to workflow elements which are in different steps. For those cases i would be great having the option to just update the element rather than moving to another step. Background of this idea is a potentially new customer where we have to replace their curr
Hi, I've got workflow with contract database. Since 2 days strange things are happening. From time to time, the report showing all conctracts is doubling some rows. In BPS Content database there is only one instance with this ID number, but on the report some instances appears twice. I delete report, recreated and same situation. Does anyone knows how to solve this issue?
Hi there, I'm unable to delete a step in the Workflow Designer window. It says (see screenshot). I can find the step in the db: SELECT * FROM WFSteps WHERE WFSteps.STP_ID = 95 But no associated Wf instances with it: SELECT WFSteps.STP_ID, WFSteps.STP_Name, WFSteps.STP_Description, WFSteps.STP_IsFinish, WFElements.WFD_ID FROM WFElements JOIN WFSteps ON WFSteps.STP_ID = WFElements.W
Hi, If I am reading documentation correctly action Add attachment allows copy/move attachment from another workflow to current instance. My case is opposite: 1.

Each payment confirmation has in transfer's desc

The costs for these claims are tracked in the ERP system. The total of the costs needs to be in the claim, so that it can be used in reports. Challenges: 1. I can only use REST for retrieving the costs 2. The ERP system supports webhooks, which doesn't h (...)
