Improve connector lines
Connector lines are impossible to work with and make look logical. They move on their own to mess up the WF when any step is moved or removed. A great model for the designer would be the connector lines in Visio. Please improve the designer with useable, logical and clear connector line composition logic.
3 votesThank you for your idea. With the next generation of our Workflow Designer we will make sure this works far better. We currently cannot say exactly when this idea will be implemented. As soon as we have more information we will update its status.

Enable horizontal scrolling in Workflow Designer
Scrolling mechanics natively supported in windows have evolved from vertical-only to include the horizontal dimension. Putting horizontal scrolling to use here would greatly help when working with large workflows -- just as much as vertical scrolling does. Whether using a touchpad with 2-finger drag, or a mouse with a tilt-wheel, navigation becomes much simpler, allowing the user to focus on the workflow itself rather than dragging the scrollbar back and forth.

Make Workflow Designer variables available in text area of stamp
WFD has a lot of ability to massage index field data that can be re-written to indices. It would be nice to get those values into text fields in WFD stamps. Currently the "Stamps include:" options are a limited number of unalterable data items. It would be great to include WF variables in additional text field(s).

Stamp a target a location on a document. the Stamp will showup at X,Y Location, either from workflow or Stamp feature. The document is more or less a form that needs filled during the process. Thanks.

Wait for event to trigger on modification time change
In the Wait for event, the "Modification date" "has changed" seems to only trigger on the date change and not the time change.
We want to pause the workflow until the document has been updated with more information.2 votes -
Special characters in fields of a task in Workflow Manager
Sometimes you want write a field name with parenthesis or comma for example, and Docuware doesn't allow it. Another issue is if you want write the field with the same name in other decision, WFM doesn't allow it, then the name must have a final blank space to repeat the name.

Extract Specific pages from a document then send as email/or store as new documents
We have a PDF document that contains multiple pages that is scanned as a whole to DocuWare, from this Document, The requirement is that we send only Page 3 to the Customer, Send Pages 2-end of document to Vendor, and Page 1 stored back in DocuWare as a separate document.
It would be great if we could have PDF manipulation tools in Workflow that would allow us to do us, without having to develop c# tools for this purpose.

Web Service Integration Improvements
DocuWare doesnt have the same abilities as SoapUI to process data from web services. See below
Docuware can’t process sub child XML elements and self-closing tag as a parameter.
SoupUI can process all standard data types while Docuware can accept Integer and Decimal but seems to inconsistently be able to access some string parameters
Some context objects in SoapUI aren't able to be interacted with in DocuWare because the data types aren't standard (string, decimal etc).

Improved Activation Rules
The rules for automatic activation of a workflow should allow the adminsitrator to be more specific. Now you can only have AND operators.
The rule configuration for permissions is perfect, and would love to see more systemwide adoption of it.
It allows you to be as simple or specific as needed.

Parrallel conditions
Amount of activity outputs depends on number of conditions.
If condition A is fulfilled a certain route is taken etc etc.For example. If 10 Document Types needs different actions it would promote efficiency. One does not have to do 10 different condition activities nor do you have to build 10 different workflows.

Email Notification Link via Workflow
Currently Workflow Designer does not allow you to generate the link name from variables with in DW only so the only option is to hardcode it.
It would be nice to be able to use the filename and a date as the link in the email being received by end users. It gives more meaning that hard coding the word document and then followed by variables

assign a form field as a global variable
I want to assign a form field that is not indexed as a global variable in Workflow Designer. I can't do that unless it is an index entry.
These fields on the form need to be changeable, but do not need to be indexed.
