Add the option to select a merge form to send from the email task
When dealing with a webform with multiple merge forms, DocuWare does not have the function to select between them in order to only send one document out, and later in the workflow to add the second document to send out , lets use the following scenario , a customer needs to pay for a service , thus a invoice needs to be generated and sent out, after proof of payment was received DocuWare workflow needs to generate a receipt of payment, using the same workflow with multiple merge forms.
2 votesThank you for your idea. Right now we are focusing on other topics, so we are not considering this idea for future releases. If the demand for this topic increases, we might add it to future plans.
This seems to be more a configuration issue as this could be already done today.

Add an error message for a worflow while a document is open
Currently, When a document is open in research and it's running in a workflow, the workflow don't update the data because the document is locked. We would like to know if you can change this in a future update by adding a error message to avoid the task will be in general error or by stopping the workflow when he encounter this situation.

Workflow Dashboard for Reporting / Monitoring / Analysis
Provide a dashboard for the workflow that would allow an administrator or department manager the ability to view the status of all the documents in the workflow, see who has the document, how long they have had the document and provide the outputting of a full report on documents in the workflow with this information in a format that would allow the user to review the workflow activity to determine if there are bottlenecks, people not doing their jobs, more accurate tracking of time to process documents, etc.

Adjust parallel activity in workflow so it allows workflow to split into two separate and distinct paths
It would be helpful to have a workflow activity that splits the workflow into two branches. For example branch A could have its own activities, user assignments, notifications, etc. and then branch B could have its own activities. Once all activities in both branches were complete the paths would merge and the workflow would resume in a serial manner.

Comment Marker on workflow steps
Especially during the creation of more complex and lengthy workflows, it would be good to have an option for a comment on the different workflow step-tools. Similar to the red circle with the !, there could be a little marker, showing the admin that there is a comment on that box. The comment could then be used to leave hints on what needs to be changed in future versions of the workflow.

Display Workflow Users Assigned to a Group via a Role
Currently if I have a workflow task and I create a field in the dialog that is set to user of a group and multi-select and I have specified a group for the task assignment to display a list of users. I have found that if the group contains a role that the members of the role do not display in the list of user for the workflow field defined as user of a group. Only the individual users assigned to the group NOT the users assigned to the Role that is listed as a member of the group are…

Allow Wildcards for Filtering in Monitor Tasks
This is a new client request, and I like it too. Would be quite useful to be able to use wildcards for the filters in Monitor Tasks columns. It's common for me to have some content in the middle of a string and it would be really nice to be able to filter for these.
Thanks!

Workflow Manual Reassigns - Capture Email Message in Addition to Subject
This comes directly from a client, and he claims that this is quite important to him. So, it's also very important to me.
In the workflow history when someone manually reassigns a task and chooses to have an email sent only the Subject is captured. In our case the message was quite important and not having it in the history caused quite the bad situation.
Can we get the Message added to the workflow history for the reassign, too?
Thanks!

Add workflow activity to run scripts or exe.
It would be nice if there were a workflow activity that allows a script or exe to be called along with the ability to provide parameters. This could be very powerful and would provide more options for integrations.

Add translations to workflow actions/buttons to support multinational companies
I have an existing customer who is looking to expand their usage of the system to include users in different countries.
As such they would like the workflow actions to reflect their language.
At the moment the only way I can see to do this is to include the translations of each language on the button but this doesn't work because there are too many characters.
What would be good is if the locale of the user was used to select the translation of the label so that it would support a greater number of users in a multinational company.3 votes -
allow html email notifications
The email notifications generated from workflows allow for quite a bit of customization with verbage and data fields, but they're plaintext. Nowadays people are accustomed to getting quite attractive email notifications from their various services so it would be great if you could add the ability to use html formatting and images in the emails - it would add to the professional look and feel of DocuWare.

Add page count as a condition variable in Workflow Designer
We would like to be able to have documents of certain page counts flow to different trays via the workflow. Currently, you can not select page count in a condition box as a system variable or user defined variable.

In the workflow designer allow a workflow to be scheduled if todays date = a date index filed
In the workflow designer, you can schedule a task to run if a date field is a length of time after or before a date. There is no easy way to schedule it to run for documents that have a date = a date specifically today's date. So the solution is to have it run after the past 1 day and before the next 1 day and for some reason that ran it a day ahead of schedule so I had to put in a condition as the first command in the workflow to see if the date was =…

Search for used fields and variables in Workflow Designer
We all know that workflows can get very complex. At the moment, if you need to find out where in the workflow you are using certain variables the only way to find the assignments is to try and delete the variable. The Designer then shows you a list of all places where that variable has been used. However, currently you have no way of finding data assignments to fields as you can't search for them. It would be very helpful to have an option in the Designer where you can see all the different fields (even in other file cabinets)…

Allow Workflow Controllers to Move an Item to A Different Node in The Workflow
Would be great for Workflow Controllers to be able to move an item on demand to any node in that workflow. We can reassign or stop, but if we run into a routing problem would be great to move the item where we need for it to be, and then we can work with the design to avoid the problem in the future
