Hello, Right now there are Next step, and Previous step buttons on the Step Edit window, but if we need to edit two steps, which are X steps apart, then we have to: * Click X times - and every have some delay - loading the data. * Close step editor, and use list on the workflow, or the diagram to select step which we want to edit. I've got an idea that in the Step Edit window, we could add list of steps (list, tree, tabs) to choose from. An example in attachments :)

Hi, In DEV-TEST-PROD Architecture environment also containing multiple BPS Content Database it would be helpful to runas BPS Studio to the exact environment and exact content database. Then it would be possible to create .bat script to run exact environment, e.g. TEST to the specific database e.g. BPS_Content_1 The script "BPS Studio PROD Database 1.bat" could then alike below runas /user:Domain\Login "C:\...\WEBCON Designer Studio.exe -portalAddress https://abc.xyz -databaseID or -databas (...)

Hello, Introducting roles for managing BPS Groups: Global Permission Admin and per Group Admins it would be helpful to have feature to view the group members for every/configured users. It would be indicated per group - alike in SharePoint if group members can be shown to everyone or only group members - SharePoint.png (missing and desired feature marked blue) This feature with the links to the BPS groups described here + stopped working in BPS 2023 - hopefully they functionality will be ba (...)

HI, When installing Webcon, the SQL Server compatibility level is set to 120 (default). To use advanced functions like `string_split` and data processing functions from JSON, it is necessary to manually change the compatibility level to 150. These functions are essential in developing more complex processes. If we manually upgrade the compatibility level from 120 to 150, Webcon will no longer provide support. It would be beneficial to have the compatibility level pre-set to 150 during the (...)

Hi everyone, I've been working on a "to do" app and I thought that a calendar report view showing the tasks to be dane with their date would be perfect. In the calculated columns of my standard table report I have a calculated column with a red square for an overdue task and green for all the "to be done n the future" ones. Works great. I created the same for the calendar report and there is a problem - the calculated column is not visible to choose from in the dynamic coloring module (only sys (...)

Dear all, I am wondering if there is no option for a case-insensitive search for fieldtypes like "Autocomplete" or "Choice field". At the moment I am struggling to search for values with search mode "Contains". Unfortunately the search results differs based on beginning the search phrase with an upper or lower case. In my opinion it would be a great benefit, if there are two addtional options (as checkboxes) to fine tune the search mode. 1) Ignore Upper and lower case --> case-insensitiv (...)

Hi everyone, I'm not sure yet whether it's a good idea or not, but I think it might proof useful, if we could add an icon to path buttons, like they are available for the menu buttons. I just tried emojis today and I think it will help users to distinguish similar paths. But since these are emojis there may be problems with light/dark mode and different devices. This wouldn't be the case for font icons. Best regards, Daniel

Hello, I think it would be great to have different kinds of choice fields. Radio button, checkbox (with multiselect option), toggle. Thank you!

Hi everyone, I think it would be great to have an opportunity to add the option to execute a form rule in case of a 'Validate form' action fails. In most of my cases there some special condition which relates to a field/tab. Having the option to execute a form rule would allow to: - focus the field - show the tab - execute some JavaScript which would could display a subworkflow which needs to be closed. - etc When writing this it came to my mind, that it may be even possible to (...)

Hi, In the 2017 version of WEBCON there was a filter web-part, which would filter all the reports on the page. Is this something that could be implemented in a future release to help with filtering multiple reports quickly on a dashboard? kind regards, Dean

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 current mass action functionality (e.g. sending e-mails, mail merge letters). Adding to possibility t (...)

Dear Community, how about adding an icon to path button? Something similar to adding an icon to menu button. I think it could be very useful and could improve user experience in this matter. Best.

Dear Webcon Community, as you probably know, dark mode is very popular in most modern applications. It has many benefits, but the most important is that looking at the screen for 8 hours is less exhausting for our eyes if we use dark mode. I really hope we can add this to WEBCON BPS Designer Studio :)

Hi, would it be possible to have an option for radio buttons to be formatted to appear horizontally on the form instead of vertically? Would be a good addition to help save space on a form. kind regards, Dean

It would be nice if you had the possibility to define the language in which a custom email is sent based on a form field or item list column. We have multiple applications where recipients of e-mails have to addressed in their own language regardless of the user language which is used in the form.

Hi everyone, when an item list column is deleted, it will be checked whether it is used and the usages can be displayed. It would be nice, if we could have this option without clicking delete. :) I attached the screenshot which displays the usage of the item list column and that the usages are different from the item list itself. So the usages of the item list column are actually checked. BPS Version: 2022.1.2.31 Best regards, Daniel

Dear Webcon Community! Problem: you cannot use datarow fields on portal reports. Proposal: make it possible as it was a calculated field on report, running as subquery What do you think? Thank you! BR, Peter

At this pointthe only way to generate multiple word documents is to create multiple actions, or if you have a dynamic number of documents, you should use subworkflows. The second solution works alright when we are talking about 2-20 documents, but (I'm not sure if all of you are aware) creating an new instance, ore moving it one step is a verry slow action and if you need to move or create 1000 instances using the default actions you will have to wait sometimes hours. Another problem is that (...)

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 understand the intention, it just annoys me because it slows down the development/testing: (...)

Good morning WEBCON team, we installed version 2021.1.4.84 last week and i found all my emojis used on path buttons are no longer with color but since the update only black. If its possible, please give me back the colors in the next version ;-). Thanks, Bjoern Poller
