  2. 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. WF Steps as templates

    Once I've created a WF step, ex., Task or Assign to, etc., I'd like to copy it and use it as a template for use in later steps in the overall WF. Please add this feature.

  4. Toggle WF steps active or inactive

    If I unconnect and bypass an existing step (Task or Condition, etc.) I currently have to completely erase the step before continuing and testing the WF. Then I have to completely re-key the step and it's parameters and logic to get back to the previous process. Please provide a switch on all modules to enable or simply bypass.

  5. Allow the creation of Data Records from Workflow Manager/Designer.

    I have a need to create two 'Numbers' from based on a condition. If IndexField A is not empty create the 'Number'. If Indexfield B is not empty create the 'Number'. It would be good enough for the customer that one or two Data Records are created using the data

  6. Workflow Designer : Request for a new activity “Stamp”

    We would really use an activity “Stamp” which would allow us to insert stamp without using a Task (i.e. inserting the stamp automatically on the document). For instance we would use a Task in a loop until some specific variables as set, with condition, and we would like to add a stamp only when the loop finish but not each time the task is repeated.

  7. Workflow Designer: Assign a task to a role expect specific users

    We would like the possibility to assign a task to any member of a role, except some specific users. The use case would be in a 4-eyes principle workflow, where in a same role one user must perform an action and another user (not especially an n+1) from the same role must review the action.

  8. Allow to configure automatic stamps with blackground colour in Workflow Manager

    As you can not set an specific location for the automatic stamps in Workflow Manager, sometimes it can be stamped over the text of the document....if you can select a colour for the background of the stamp, at least you can see better the text included in the stamp

  10. Fixed location option for workflow stamps

    We have need to have approval stamps located in a particular location on the documents in the workflow. Being able to set a static location for a particular workflow task stamp would be nice.

  11. allow list-type Role variables to be used as select lists in tasks

    When creating a decision as part of a task and adding the various fields to the form, we can tie a select list to a field (for all the usual reasons). However, we can only use the select lists we've configured in the Admin Tool (or configurations). It would be great if we could use lists that we dynamically create as part of the workflow using the new Role variable. This would enable more customization of the workflow decisions, and since we already have the list-type Role global variable it might not be that hard to just allow the usage…

  12. Add formatting options to workflow information.

    In workflows you can add a description to assist users, however there is no way to format any text in that information window.

  13. Development mode for Workflows

    It would be nice to have a switch that would enable/disable notifications of non-controllers for workflows. This would allow the notifications to be put in place during testing and then enabled en masse when rolling the workflow out.

    It would be even better if there was a way to redirect all notifications to the Controllers/Admins on a development workflow. That way the workflows can be confirmed as working, without spamming the end users before the workflow is ready.

  14. Enterprise Server needs to allow for different Workflow Engine URL based on local web server.

    Customer has a main office location (A) and a secondary location (B). Each has there own DocuWare Workflow engine instance.

    When an email notification from the workflow engine on B is emailed it uses a URL for site A, site A also uses a URL for A.

    A needs workflow URL's for A
    B needs workflow URL's for B

    Cause: A & B are different domains and users of B do not have access to A through the company network.

  16. Catch All Error Block

    It would be incredibly useful to have a workflow wide error handling option. With the addition of the error variables in 6.11, this would allow a single action to be taken regardless of error location, and greatly simplify workflow design.

    As it is, connecting all of the error outputs becomes hideously complex very quickly.

  17. Allow additive Assignment of Tasks (Roles + Users + Variables)

    Allow additive assignment of Tasks (Roles + Users + Variables)

    It would be really super helpful if Tasks could use additive assignment throughout. This especially is true for escalation / rerouting. For example to add the a manager when escalating, so that the original person still can act on the task as well.

    As it is now, this won't work. Consider the scenario:
    - An incoming document triggers a workflow.
    - The document has an index field "Assignment" and it's value is "Joe"
    - A User-type global variable is populated with the value from "Assignment"
    - The workflow assigns the…

  18. reoccuring

  19. Allow nested operators in workflow designer

    For the trigger conditions, it should have the same functionality as the file cabinet profile index filters. We should be able to set if Field1 is equal to Value1 AND Field2 is empty OR if Field3 is empty OR if Field4 is empty.

  20. 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.
