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 (...)

Hello, Right now there are Next step, and Previous step buttons on the Step Edit window, but if we need to edit two steps, which are X steps apart, then we have to: * Click X times - and every have some delay - loading the data. * Close step editor, and use list on the workflow, or the diagram to select step which we want to edit. I've got an idea that in the Step Edit window, we could add list of steps (list, tree, tabs) to choose from. An example in attachments :)

Hello, I'm looking for a feature to be able to display images inside drop-down, or pop-up choice field. Either form Picture field, or from Single line of text in Picture mode. Use case: I'm working on a process, where sales department should specify which base product should be used as a starting point to create a new one. There is a long list of those base products, and remembering how each one looks just by number/name is not possible. Displaying the base product during selection cou (...)

Hi, Maybe it would be a good idea for a new automation to be created by default to receive the name of the element for which it was created. This would help keep the system tidy, reduce the workload for each time you assign a name,. And for people who prefer other names, nothing will change because you will have to enter your name anyway. Regards

Hi, it would really be great, if we could trigger the documentation generation for a whole application. It doesn't have to be a single document. It would be fine if this would just create a zip package. In this zip packages there would be the default documents for all processes. This would include the related processes too. Now I'm going back to generating the documentation for ten processes again... Best regards, Daniel

MVP

Hi, It would be nice if we also had fields of the time type. Some clients need to record, for example, the time of arrival and the time of departure, and this is not possible through standard fields. Thanks, Raluca

Hello, While designing form I'm often getting questions about possibility to set some additional description to the field. I'm usually talking about the tooltip, but it requires the action of end user - he have to willingly hover on the (ℹ️) icon, to display the message, and there is no guarantee, that he will see it. Right now it ends with creating HTML field with some description near the field, which in my opinion unnecessary clutters the form. My idea is that we could have some con (...)

Hi! Earlier there was a feature in BPS Studio to search in changes history of processes. It's not available anymore in BPS 2022.1.4. We miss it much. Is there any plan to make it available again?: Thanks!
