Hi, WFD_Att Choose columns have size nvarchar(1000). When using the 'allow multiple values' mode and having translations in the source into 3-4 languages, additionally if the ID is e.g. guid, this value is exceeded very quickly. Is it possible to increase the database size of this type of columns to nvarchar(4000)? Regards

Hi, as always when a new feature is provided, new requests will follow immediately. :) It would be great to see in the workflow history whether path authorization was used and which method was used. At the moment, it's not at all visible if path authorization was used at all. If the authorization is activated for existing workflows, we can't distinguish which instances have been using it. Best regards, Daniel

Hi, it would be great to have the UTC time in a hover effect of a time. In the attached screenshot you see the same element but with different times. One browser is running on a server with a different time zone. Even so it's explain it can cause confusion. Therefore some way of displaying the UTC+0 time would be great. Best regards, Daniel

Hi, I really like the new path authorization feature and we will surely use it. The geolocation is also an interesting addition but if it's used in combination with the path authorization it will created unexpected results. I noticed that the geolocation of the browser is used, even if path authorization with method "application" is used. If this method is used, it would be great to use the location of the device instead. I made two tests, one with and one without active VPN. As expected (...)

Hi. In version 2023, the method of handling company selection when starting from a tile has been changed. Previously, if the remaining parameters were defined in the button configuration, a form was immediately displayed and the company could be changed directly there. Currently, a popup always appears in this situation and the company can be changed later on the form. Users report this as an unfriendly solution. I wonder if it would be possible to introduce an element in the tile confi (...)

Hi everyone. While searchin/changing permissions in Webcon, there are tabs to choose. If there is more than can fit to window width, scrolling them is dramaticly slow. I suggest to change it to dropdown list. With search option would be great.

An error (lack of privileges) in executing the Generate/Update a Word file triggered from the Menu button by a user who had privileges to read an instance but not to edit it. This is happening after upgrade to version 2023.1.2.124. It was working in previous version we were using. It would be great if we can go back to allowing users with read only access to generate a word file. Thank you

Hi. I would suggest to simplify company selector in substitutions. In environments with multiple companies and several content databases list of companies is cross join of both, making it difficult for the user to choose and also requires adding several substitudions records for each content database (content database names are rather technical name and are not usefull for end users). I know that it requires to relate companies accros all content databases - maybe it's good time to move compa (...)

It would be a nice touch if we could group Automations inside Process Configuration, same as we can group Form Rules, Constants, or Business Rules. I really love how flexible Automations are, especially in case of any API integrations where global ones are created, and they might be used everywhere. Their own success makes lack of folders feel like that small stone in pair of comfy shoes ;) Closed in favour of -> https://community.webcon.com/forum/new-message/4840

It would be very useful from the users' point of view to add the ability to change the order/position rows of the item list by dragging. Regards

The history of items sometimes contains from several to several hundred or several thousand items. A proposal to add the possibility of presenting the last 5-10 history elements, because with hundreds of history elements a timeout error is received.

I would like to suggest building two actions: 1. Converting the value (integer) to the equivalent number of hours and minutes. 2. Adding and subtracting two time attributes (types of action). Example: Ad. 1. 90 = 1 h 30 min Ad. 2. 1h 30 min + 0 h 40 min = 2 h 10 min

Hi, it would be nice if the view V_WFElements would not only contain the integer id but the GUID. I'm not sure whether using the view in a calculated column would be more performant or creating an own join, but only for one table. For example (select Count(*) from V_WfElements childs where childs.DTYPE_GUID = '0000' ... further conditions) vs (select Count(*) from WfElements childs join WFDocTypes on childs.WFD_DTYPEID = DTYPE_ID and DTYPE_GUID = '0000' where .... further conditions (...)

Hi! I wanted to ask if the removal of the preview of XLSX files could be reconsidered? Perhaps as a toggled parameter. :) It was an important functionality for our company and after upgrading to BPS2023 we have to come up with a different solution for the preview of simple spreadsheets that are attached to BPS documents. Thanks, Patryk

Hi It would be useful in the form rule to have the ability to make a comment mandatory. We have cases where, depending on certain selected values, we need a mandatory comment. Thanks, Raluca

Dear All, Would you like the idea having global application home on Webcon portal, which means you can include reports/dashboards for multiple applications even from different content databases? In our situation we separated content databases as per organization structure, which is usually useful, but it is a disadvantage if you want to show a consolidated high level view. I know that it is feasible with external reporting (like PowerBI), but I would be happy if there were a standard feat (...)

Hi everyone! I'll start with the app package import error message, then some details: System.Exception: Exception occurred while importing table WFDetailConfigs ---> System.InvalidOperationException: No item type: WFBusinessRuleDefinitions, id: 2752 at WebCon.WorkFlow.Base.ImportExport.Mapping.MappingList.GetBySourceId(Int32 id, DbNodeType dbNodeType) at WebCon.WorkFlow.Base.ImportExport.Import.ForeignKeyFinder.<>c__DisplayClass7_0.<GetKeyPairs>b__1(ForeignKeyReplacePair pair) ...

Hi, if a data row/ data table is based on a BPS internal view to configure, whether the names/translations of the columns should be used. The default value should be true. It's just a waste of time to not only provide the translations the first time but also to update these when the name/translation of the referenced column changes. Most of the time it's forgotten anyway. Best regards, Daniel

Hi, I think it would be beneficial if we could have a place in the global configuration where we can define custom default values for the steps and paths of dictionaries / document templates. For example I always rename the "Dictionary step" to "Entry". Of course, I also define translations for the the step and paths. Therefore it would be great, if we could define the translations for the step and path on a global level too. Best regards, Daniel

Hello, We recently started to take better care of translating our applications in our native language as well as English. This way our clients will have a more professional experience. Even if we have everything translated, the preview that we see is in the language used for naming the steps/paths initially. It would be a nice touch if the language of the preview would be the same as the language selected in the users settings. Obviously, if a path/step has missing translations, the defau (...)
