Dear WebCon Team, we most urgently need the possibility to have further authentication methods using OAuth 2.0 / OpenID in the context of REST - Web Service. At the moment the limitation does us not allow to communicate with other systems in the way of microservices. This extension would be a great increase of data communication. Thanks a lot Best regards Thomas

When adding or updating elements via Rest Api, for picker fields it is required to provide Id and name. Quite often the name is known, but not the id. As picker fields are usually based on datasources, it would by great, when the api would be extended with methods to query datasources. There should be at least two methods: 1) getting a list of all available datasources (overall / by application) 2) query a datasource with a filter. To make it easier, the filter should be passed in as query s (...)

WEBCON BPS reporting offers great functionality for sorting, filtering. It would great having the option to implement and configure a SDK extension for reports, which would allow to execute an action based on the current selection. In my case the SDK extension would receive the selected rows with all fields and generate an advanced Pdf report. Like configuring the mass action, there should be an option to configure the SDK action. Like picking the right extension, title and maybe an icon. Som (...)

Quick Manual should be entry point, to see quick manual right now user must enter form to start process first. The order shall be the other way: first read manual, later start process.

Hi, no idea about the future plans for the portal, but you should definitely consider adding some more functions, like: - user defined left menu - pages, not just dashboards - option to turn off the default dashboard - dashboard HTML element should have some kind of HTML editor, not just a narrow window for code pasting. It's hard to make any changes without copy/paste to external editor - dashboard text element is too narrow, it should be resizable ! Almost impossible to edit large amount of (...)

Can you please add an option to encrypt fields, and user configure who can decrypt ? Why ? Becouse, in some business appliactions, administrators not always should be able to see some confidential information send in BPS forms. Senders should decide.

In new versions o WebCon BPS using Word templates are now using GUID identifier witch enables using it's in all environments. But the functionality o Word templates are very simple. It's now enough flexible for control conditions for hide, show etc. information's. For example: You can not show header of table, but empty row is always. In HTML you can control this. Adding using GUID in HTML templates give the more flexible possibility to build templates witch information

Hi guys, I've I some suggestions for the task management process : 1. Add reminders configuration for tasks * possibility to define reminder templates:list of reminders: WHO, WHEN, MESSAGE, channel (email, sms, other ?) * you can attach reminder templates to each type of tasks (workflow steps) 2. Add escalation configuration for tasks * possibility to define escalation actions. Good to define escalation templates, list of: WHEN, WHO (roles, managers), MESSAGE, CHANNEL you can attach escalatio (...)

Whenever I create a new step in the designer studio, I need to add a path too. The only steps which don't need at least one path are the final paths, which may have already been created by the wizard. So it would save a little bit of time for everyone if there would already be a path. :) Daniel

Hi, the "new" confirm/alert functions are really great and please don't remove the option to pass HTML as a parameter. :) Yet there's always room for improvement. Could we get additional/optional parameter for the title, yes and no button? Depending on the context the labels "Confirmation", "Yes" and "No" may not be the best. For example this would be the default labels Title: Confirmation Text: If you progress, this will trigger the deletion of xyz Buttons Yes, No This would (...)

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.

Hi everyone, it would really be nice if we could display /filter the phases /actors in the reports. Best regards, Daniel

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 (...)

Hi, we got the feedback in the past that the users sometimes don't recognize the Edit button. In WEBCON BPS the "Cancel editing" button is really prominent. Could we get the same design for the Edit button? I'm also wondering whether the "Cancel editing" should be displayed in as it is. In my opinion the cancel editing is not the primary action a use should take on the form. Best regards, Daniel

MVP

Hi, what do you think of collapsing the toolbar on a report to a gear/action icon or similar? I have the feeling that the toolbar is not regularly used and collapsing it could save some space. This could be an optional property so that the toolbar can be displayed as expended by default. Best regards, Daniel

Hi, this may be a duplicate but I'm not sure whether I have added it and didn't found anything related. It would be great if we could display report tiles not only vertically but also horizontally (floating). In addition it would be great if we could not only select a custom font color for the accent but one of the new brand colors in WEBCON BPS 2025. Than we could amend the colors based on light/dark or contrast theme. Best regards, Daniel

Hi, depending on the use case / form it may be helpful to extend the option to place field names above the control from multi line fields to all fields. They are already automatically placed above, if you are using a mobile/tablet , but this could also help when using a PC. Especially if you are using an other form template than 50/50 this may improve the UI when for "normal" monitor resolution and large ones. You can take a look at the attached screenshot, how it may look like in 1920x (...)

Hi everyone, while it is not so easy to come up with a new navigation structure with folders and elements in these folder with WEBCON BPS 2025, I have even more problems with multilingual elements. My current navigation is like: Main start button Active (folder) History (folder) Administration (folder) Adding elements to the folders was pretty easy but I have no good idea on how to sort the elements in the folder, at least if you support more than one language. While the "Configu (...)

Hi, in WEBCON BPS 2025 R1 opening the popup search no longer focuses on the search input, instead the close button get's the focus. Entering the popup search and hitting the enter key will close the popup search instead of showing all elements. Best regards, Daniel
