Hi @all, I´ve many processes they use the same rest-request to fill choice fields, table, etc. But the request requires a dynamic values in _url-parameter_ or _request-body_. At the moment i´ve to clone the *same* data source for every process... not nice ;-) ! A parameter would solve the problem - like as parameter into rules! Thanks and best regards Daniel
Our scenario: We are sending a prefilled pdf document to an external user with the instruction to complete the form and return it together with a copy of the id/passport. Which could be one or more pdfs or images. We've configured a hot-mail-box to check for e-mail having a pdf with a valid barcode. The pdf with the barcode is attached nicely :). But also want to add the additional attachments. One should expect that according the documentation the configuration of additional attachment (...)
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
Hi, as it is not possible to delete unwanted business entities when there are instances with them being used in it would be nice to have a parameter to deactivate them to make them disappear in the BE-field.
Dear Webcon Community! Problem: longer background processes has to be split to smaller parts to fit in transaction timeout limit. For example if you have to move 50-1000 instances each morning taking some minutes, we have to use "select top <n>" and run global action more often (eg. in every 10 minutes) Earlier (before BPS 2020), it was a once a day run. Proposal: have new GA setting to specify number of cycles it should perform after triggered by schedule. This way we can split big t (...)
Dear Webcon Community! We have been working with Webcons BPS for 5 years, delivering several business solutions within a global company. We really like this platform however we have several proposals and ideas to make it better. I will share some of them in separate posts, sorry for flooding. Any comments, questions or suggestions are very welcomed. I would appreciate your vote! Problem: in case of mailapprove, approver sometimes enters some comments in email, which you cannot get back (...)
Hello, Lately I was thinking about SQL optimization. So I did this query on production environments of our 4 random clients. The query shows where probably we should be thinking about putting index, because of high usage of those columns. Of course we all know that putting index on WFElements with attribute columns is not a good idea (maybe if you have secondary BPS_Content for only 1 process could be fine), but there are some examples on every environment that are in top 10 most highly recomme (...)
The reporting and filter options of WEBCON BPS are already great. However we have customers who would like to have a filter "all but..." or "not" like we already have "Begins" and "Contains".
Currently Webcon BPS does not offer an action to convert pdf to pdf/a. As there is a rising request for documents in pdf/a format, it would be great having a built-in pdf to pdf/a conversion action.
Hi, it would be great if the creation of Dashboards could be added to the Designer Desk. Best regards, Daniel
Is it possible to have the Itemlist action buttons in front of the item list? As most of the times we have few hundred records and in case of do some action on the itemlist... we need to go to bottom of the item list and scroll to the right and do some action. After the action complets we do the same thing like go to bottom of the page scroll to right and do some action.. Instead if we have the actions in begining of the itemlist will be good feature or please guide me how to achieve this.
Hi everyone, if you are going to use field references, process rules or similar in translations, these won't work once the process is transferred to another environment. See this thread for more details/images: https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/1149 In my opinion this is an error, so I created a ticket. The answer was, that this is the intended behavior. There I'm creating this user voice. :) Best regards, Daniel
Hello there, with working much more with compact start buttons, i am optimizing our older dashboard layouts. We have a few applications, which have many start buttons. So i was wondering, if, maybe, in further coming WEBCON versions there could be the possibility to add 2 more "section layouts" like i posted in the picture. Mostly the usefull one would be: half side left, and two small columns in the right half. With this layout options designing dashboards and grouping buttons would work muc (...)
Dear WebCon Team, we just updated to 2021.1.4.55 and recognized, that the so long working function "Attachments Count" does not work properly any longer on the intital step of a workflow as long there is no Instance ID. For Example I would like to validate if there is an attachment uploaded or not (see picture). If I do a path on the step itself --> Instance ID --> the rule works fine!!! I think it is a bug. Thanks a lot
Good morning, we are using WebCon 2020 on mobile devices more frequently. Those mobil devices are not allowed to see all start buttons (upper left in the picture / on the upper right the buttons are set to be visible). If i use one dashboard row where only some buttons have visibilty rights, everything is ok. Just the allowed buttons are shown. If the not allowed start-buttons are in a seperate row (buttom screen in picture), there are viewable dummy pictures instead of empty space (upper left (...)
Several of our workflows have multiple attachments that are usually quite large, some can range up to 100MB for a single file. I would be nice to have a progress indicator of attachment uploads so our users could be sure that the file actually finishes uploading and doesn't leave the site prematurely.
When adding a new list item into a SharePoint list, you have the option in BPS to capture the ID of the new list item you have added. Then it is easy to add attachments to this list item using that ID. When I add a new document to a document library, the listID capture option is disabled. It would be really helpful to be able to capture this list ID for a document library as well so that then I can use that to add custom meta-data to the document library for the document I have just copied to SP (...)
Hi everyone, most of the time an error raised by the "Validate form" action can be fixed by the current user. It would be great if we could have a new configuration option "Focus field" where you can set an expression/field. When the error is displayed on the form the "Set Focus" action is executed and the configured value selected. I assume that the "Set focus" action already toggles collapsed groups/other tabs. Best regards, Daniel
Hi, When We put Report on dashboard using functionality of massive action or quick path not refreshing data in report. When we use it on report it refresh data. The functionality of report when it use as report or report on dashboard should be the same.
Hi, When we use reports with SOLR we have easy access to attachment's, but not always is good to see them all. When elements have many attachments the report is inconvenient and not look good. Where useful will be to set: - how many attachment's we wont to see - filter them by category or type of file on seconde side nice to have will be colapsing row to see only one attchment and after expand see more. The all will be very useful to do good reports ;)
