Hi there, just a little "error" -> German version: 'Favorites' are not translated into 'Favoriten'. Have a nice day, Bjoern Poller

The absence chart lacks to possibility to save personal views as it is possible for normal reports. Only Administrators can add and modify views via the configuration menu. For absence charts the same options from modifying views should be possible as for other reports.

Hello there, we are using a tablet pc at the reception counter for our digital 'guest check-in' process. It's just a seperate Dashboard with a report displaying the current check-in step. We are using the "Auto Refresher" for getting the latest check-in data. Our problem now is, that the smallest interval (1min) is still to long, the maximum value good enough would be 30 sec, otherwise the guest has to click the update button in most of the times cause of the long waiting-time. It would be g (...)

Dear WebCon Team, the Concat function is a great advantage for text handling. Unfortunately, it is very hard or let's more say inconvenient, if you forgot a text part. In my understanding it is not possible to replace concat parts or even add text parts before or change there position. e.g. concat[Happy][Weekend!] so I would like to say "Happy easter Weekend!" for this I have to delete Weekend! and type easter and then type again Weekend! Of course in this case I just have to add it to the (...)

Hello, it would be nice if there`s a possibility to customize columns in build-in Archive report (Searching structures), independently for each application for example :)

On reports we have the great possibility to execute mass actions by passing in some parameters. It would be a great having a similar kind of dialog menu action, where we can configure some informational text (e.g. as header/footer) and of course one or more fields as parameter. The configured parameters we then can use to execute an action. The dialog could contain a cancel and a okay

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 (...)

There's currently not an easy way to identify versions which have been created in administration mode. The attached picture shows two changes. Both were done using the admin mode. Unfortunately this is not visible for the second one where the admin added a comment. Maybe a new column could be added or a different colour could be used for versions created in administration mode.

Hi, so HTML attributes are great, but only untill you try to do something with them - like hide for example... or export - import Seems like you keep them all in a single SQL field:-( So, some JS manipulation is needed, rule editor is useless. Can you make normal HTML attributes - every attribute in separate SQL field?

MVP

It would be great if an option would be added to place the field name above the picture field, like it is available for the 'multiple lines of text' field. The attached picture shows an ugly mockup of the result. Most pictures I have seen are rectangular instead of square, so the default value would be above. Implemented with 2021.1.3.163 Thanks, Daniel

I already posted my idea in 2022 (26.09.2022: https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/2230), but i have a new project in August, where such a feature would be nice. I have some ideas for a plugin (as far as I remeber, a problem is the DPI from the Signature field being higher than of picture fields) -> Wouldn't that be a nice new feature? 26.09.2022: ======== Hello WEBCON, we are working on a prototype to document defects. Therefore, we would like to use a new kind of form field: (...)

Version 2023.1.3.29 A few weeks ago, I encountered a problem with a GLOBAL ACTION (on start cyclic) in an older process. It stopped working (unfortunately, I do not have a screenshot of the error message). Restarting did not resolve the issue. I noticed that the execution count had reached 65,536. Even after stopping and restarting (which reset the count to 0), it still didn't work. I had to create a new GLOBAL ACTION, deactivate the old one, and then everything worked fine again. Sinc (...)

Hi, The idea is to always default to connections to the current database. Now if we have defined others, some others are often substituted by default, which is irritating :) Regards.

Hello, I would like to make a suggestion or find solution for branding case. We got customized White Template (as a copy) + we customized coloring of navigation sections by global CSS (setup in System settings in BPS Studio). Result is visible in the attached screenshots. Such coloring works fine for light templates, but not for dark one. And I thought that Additional CSS per template would be a nice feature in the product. And as workaround for now - could you please give me a hint how (...)

While I greatly appreciate the functionalities and flexibility provided by the WEBCON BPS mobile application, many of us find ourselves predominantly using WEBCON BPS on desktop computers due to the nature of our workflows and the complex tasks we perform. However, the mobile application's interface and functionalities do not always translate seamlessly to desktop usage, where the majority of our work occurs. The addition of PWA support would bridge this gap significantly by offering a number (...)

Hello everyone, I have a question. We are migrating Webcon to version 2023. I checked the table [dbo].[AdminAPILogs], and since the last version in 2022, there hasn't been a single log in this table. Has anything changed in the new versions, and do I need to turn on logging into this table somewhere? I have been looking for an answer on the Webcon website and Google, but I haven't found anything

Hi, I'm sorry, if this a duplicate, but I'm not sure if I added it already or maybe someone else. If selecting a value of a choose field from a data source throws and this causes an error, it's not easily possible to see the actual "request" which was used to get the data. There are ways around this: - In case of SQL and you have access to the server you could activate the SQL profiler - In case of rest/soap requests you could add an http interceptor which can be used as a proxy. I (...)

Hi, we have the option to create "child sources", by defining a superior source and a business entity. This way we can use different connections. https://docs.webcon.com/docs/2023R3/Studio/ConnectionsAndDataSource/DataSources/DataSource_RestWebService#3-superior-source This way we can use different connection for the "same" data source. This works fine for reading data. When we want to write data so, it's not so easy any more. For example the "invoke REST Web service" will allow se (...)

Hello everyone, I've got a use case, where users want to make a specific path always redirect them to a specific dashboard. Right now, the returnurl parameter is built dynamically, and we (developers) don't have almost any possibilities to change that behavior (we can create our custom links, so there is some). In most cases it will work like that IF user opened element from the dashboard, but that's not always the case. I'm thinking about 'override returnurl' option on specific path - som (...)

Would be nice to be able to have an action that creates a plain text file from a value programmed similarly to a business rule. This would be useful when creating input for bank transfers and possibly other applicatins that accept plain text file as an input.
