Hi, it would be nice to get a more detailed log output for the database upgrade. Currently we only have the information that the upgrade started: 17-01-2026 16:00:11 msg: Scripts are loaded src: DBUpdateControl 17-01-2026 17:21:24 msg: AppPool WEBCONBPS recycle src: IISManager It would be nice to have an output like - 17-01-2026 16:00:11 Script 7703 \t Change picker columns length from 1000 to 4000 \t Database: BPS_Content_X Start time\t 16:34:21 \t End time \t 16:40:34 I used \t (...)
It would be great to be able to create or use a custom source on report. The problem arises every time we want to visualize data from different processes on a single chart. In such cases, the default sources are limited to system data only. It is not possible to physically connect logically related data. Our case is a little more complex. We have long-term tasks, connected hierarchically, whose progress is recorded in lists of items within the tasks themselves. We want to show a chart (...)
Hi, it would really help to compare the export of two dictionaries in different environments, if the columns would be sorted the the same way. I haven't checked it, but I assume, that it is based on the integer id of the fields. I would prefer that the columns would be sorted either by the not translated field name (WFCON_prompt) or it's GUID. this would ensure that the export will have the same column sorting across all environments which use the same application. In theory we could h (...)
I would like to propose a UX enhancement for the WEBCON platform: displaying the step name in red whenever inheritance is broken on the step list and also directly on the graphical Workflow diagram, in the same way this visual indicator is already used for step names in the Attribute Matrix. The goal is to improve clarity, consistency, and error prevention during process design and maintenance. 1. UI/UX consistency Red highlighting is already used to indicate broken inheritance in the Attrib (...)
Quite often we have the use case, that we need to provide a personalized dataset. With SQL data sources we do have the possibility to use calculated fields with a subquery. Which could end up with performance issues when using large datasets. As an example this calculated column returns 1 if the first letter of the COS_ExtensionAttribute05 field in the COS table matches the value of the dataset. The result can then be used to filter by <my> data. (SELECT IIF(LEFT(COS_ExtensionAttribute05, 1) (...)
The privilege-granting capabilities for application creation (within Webcon Designer Studio) should be more extensive and flexible. Let's assume two business units (departments) are using the same Webcon instance. How can proper privileges be granted within Webcon Designer Studio in this scenario? The current model of access rights appears too binary: you can either be a System Administrator with complete access to all resources, or an Application Administrator with control strictly limited t (...)
Hi, is it possible to add a Data Source selection in the Add attachment action configuration?
Hi, I had a case where a customer wanted to "freeze" the current state of the processes in an application. "Freeze" in this context means, that it should not be possible, to trigger any path transitions, save the instance or add new attachments. While this isn't a common situation, it may come in handy to have a support way to reach this , which doesn't require modifying the process: - Migrating from WEBCON / Carve outs - Moving a processes to an own database - High impact bugs where y (...)
I greatly appreciate the Access authorization to form fields in WEBCON BPS – it’s a much-needed and well-designed solution that all most meets our needs. Like many other organizations, we handle sensitive data that should not be stored in plain text in the SQL database. To address this, we've developed a simple SDK-based customization of a form field that displays the field value on the form, but stores it in an encrypted format in the database. Unfortunately – and to our disappointment – (...)
Is there a reason why Group form fields that have the "Horizontal arrangement of form fields in group" and "Wrap fields in horizontal arrangement" fields ticked create two seperate HTML elements with the same CSS Id? This makes it more difficult to select the 2nd element due to it never being fetched with getElementbyId.
Hi, it would be great if there would be a 4th permission column in the Designer Desk Permissions in system settings named "Access to all projects". Right now only system admins have implicit access to all projects. We would like to give access to all projects to a small group of modelling experts without giving them the role system admins that gives also access e.g. to all applications. This would solve the matter that without this permission all project creators have to share their projec (...)
Attachments: Currently its only possible to "lock" Attachments in certain steps while breaking the form-inheritence. It would be great if we could have a "readonly" for Attachments in the Field-Matrix. Comments: In some cases its necessary to "lock" also Comments (but existing comments should be visible). Kind regards Ernst
The possibility to add group owners made the administration of groups much easier. But in environments with a lot of groups, changing the ownership can be a pain without using some type of automation I would really appreciate, if we could use BPS- and AD-Groups as group owners.
Hi, Add to the list of items - single line of text as a hyperlink, as in the case of the single line of text attribute. For creating documentation with a larger number of links and references, it would certainly be useful to be able to refer to specific places for specific things.
Hi, it would be great if the link of an entry in a report column could be set to a link to the instance of the displayed object in the form field value. This option only exists right now if the choice field is related to a BPS internal view but not for choice fields with a data source of type dictionary or user/group. The form field value link of a dictionary entry could lead to the dictionary's entry and a link to a user or group could lead to a profile page. The screenshot shows the g (...)
Hi, it would be great having an audit log or audit trail feature as e.g. Microsoft and Atlassian have it to get an easy overview of what a specific user has done. Security relevant features like last login/access timestamp to WEBCON portal, Designer Desk and Designer Studio should get saved seperately. Right now there seems to be no information available in the database when a user last used one of the modules. The audit log could also contain login events for failed logins for easier d (...)
[Benefits and business justification] - In many business processes, items are archived after a certain period to reduce the load on the production database. - However, access to historical data is often essential – e.g., in the context of audits, analysis, reporting, or trend comparisons. - Granting appropriate permissions enables precise management of archive access, aligned with real business needs. Optimization of analytical and reporting processes - Archived data is often analyzed (...)
New assignment filter: All active where I am delegated/substitute Currently, such a report is created in the SQL filter if you do not want to show the user's active tasks.
Hi, as dictionaries always get created through applications it would be great if the overview table would also at least have a column with the application name to get more structure and filter options here. A flat list of hundreds of dictionaries is not easy to handle and a good naming convention is the only way to get dictionaries quiet a bit structured. Maybe it would be also an option to use group containers in the tree list that correspond to the application itself instead of the functio (...)
It would be great if all configuration options as they exist for floating-point number form fiels would also exist for calculated columns in reports or bps internal views with the type decimal number. Missing configuration options are: - show thousands separator - display format - Prefix - Suffix The only existing option is number of decimal places.
