Hi, while using the functionality of opening an attachment preview in a new tab, I noticed that when we start previewing two different PDF invoices in one tab, the system will always display the one that was opened last in the base tab in the newly opened tab. It would be good to allow opening many different files in a new tab, from different elements, so that it does not overwrite the newly opened PDF.
Hi, we can display the first attachment on page load. Unfortunately, this only works if the attachment is not displayed as a popup. Even if the documentation is updated to mention this different behavior. I find it counter intuitive that this should be a different Instead of changing the current way, I would prefer a form rule which can be used to display an attachment in the preview. This way we wouldn't be limited to the first attachment but could get the attachment to display with (...)
Hi In order to improve and standardize the appearance of data entered in the description field, I propose adding the option of formatting HTML text in the description of groups and tabs. Similarly to what is possible in the description fields on attributes. Regards
Hi, it would really be nice to have an option to store the created attachment id in a field /parameter. Right now I have a "change value of single field" action afterwards which retrieves the id of the last created attachment. It should always be the one which was created just before. But it doesn't "feel" right. This option should be available on all attachment actions. Best regards, Daniel
We ran into the issue that one of our systems started to enforce compression for its HTTP responses. They are now compressed as gzip which leads to an error when trying to access data from the system using a REST Web Service Data source in Webcon. I can help myself by implementing a custom data source, but if there is a native solution, I would be glad to hear about it.
We are currently in the process of upgrading from the 2023 to 2025. Unfortunately, we were hit with some very bad news—starting from the 2024 version, the ability to define private views for reports configured on the dashboard has been removed. This is a significant issue for us, as users rely heavily on this functionality. Once the upgrade is deployed to the production server, it is likely to cause considerable disappointment. Personally, I don’t quite understand why this feature was remo (...)
Would it be possible to implement an option that would allow us to disable the alternating coloring of data tables on the form?
KB article is directing to Webcon version not available in download https://community.webcon.com/posts/post/manual-database-update-prerequisites-and-procedure/515/3 [quote] The problem has been fixed in versions 2023.1.3.326, 2024.1.1.193, 2025.1.1.72 by adding a mechanism in the installer (launched when installing or updating a WEBCON BPS version) to automatically update the attachment database, switch it to Unicode mode and change the text column types from varchar or text to nvarchar o (...)
Hello, just a quick idea - as of 2025 version, we are able to select custom app icons for applications. What do you thing about allowing selection of icons for reports / dashboards in navigation menu?
Hi, I'm wondering whether it would be easy to add a "What if" /" Run as test" flag to the application import. This flag would execute the generate the report summary so that we can see what would be changed. I'm currently restoring a backup of the production environment in the test environment to execute the import, and see what would be updated. The reason for this is, that we are transporting an application to production. This application uses the centralized "Action" application (...)
Hi, we are 3 colleagues that use that use Designer Studio on a daily basis for more than a year now. Considering that our organization has only MAC workstations/laptops, would it be possible to port Designer Studio for iOS? At the moment we bypass this inconvenience by using Windows VMs or using 3rd party software like Parallels but it would be great not to have to pay for these additional resources. Best, Roman
To improve the REST API and working with it, perhaps it is possible to introduce support for batch processing. I think it could help and speed up the work with field updates in many elements. https://www.odata.org/documentation/odata-version-3-0/batch-processing/
There's tile restriction in Outlook addin classic which doesn't allow to add more than 12 costum tiles. Is there any way to add more than 12 tiles? I'm asking becouse this tool is used on daily besis by our costumers.
I've just found out that when I switch multiple lines of text field from the standard type to formatted it just disapears and there is a type error with no furter explanation. Is it just in my case or is it common in the latest version?
In the 2025 version, a new feature was added to allow transferring an attachment to another item with the ability to specify the Workflow ID. This functionality operates within the context of the current database. **Proposal for enhancement:** Extend this functionality to include the ability to specify the Content database ID where the Workflow ID is being referenced. This enhancement would be useful for transferring attachments across multiple Content databases, where processes are di (...)
Hi, if we have a chart with a detail level, you can click on a chart element to see the elements, these information are displayed as tiles. At least if the chart is located in a row set to "one-third column" and the chart is located in the smaller part. It would be great if we could also define the display mode of a report for a chart. This display mode would be applied to the detail level of the chart. This would allow us to get a better overview even if the number of columns is limited (...)
A nice add-on feature to reports would be If we could use the widget field directly in the report table. By this users could benefit from viewing rich info widgets directly from report to check the whole project portfolio health for instance.
Hi, I'm just configuring my xx validation action in which I check whether a field value is unique for the given form type. Sometimes I include the business entity and sometimes I ignore it. It would be great, if this could be standard feature. :) Related user voice: Unique value of the item list column https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/6212/15 Best regards, Daniel *Edit* While implementing the check I figured, that there's no general option to implement this. There (...)
Hi, I think it would be good to add the functionality of sending an email to the replacement person (checkbox). We do not always set up a replacement in the HR process where we can send an e-mail notification. By doing this via the BPS Portal, we are unable to notify the replacement person that they have received this honor :) Best regards, D.
I would be nice, if this mechanism described in https://webcon.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/WEBCON_BPS_2025_Release_Notes_EN-1.pdf dedicated to increase security will be also available for attachments. Usually sensitive data included on the form is also in attachments. Apart from this functionality, it would be useful to be able to define permissions for individual attachments separate from document permissions, with the possibility of inheriting them from document permissions (as is curren (...)
