  1. Notification

    A document stored in the file cabinet ready for email notification. (so in the notification table). A user logs in during the day and approves invoice randomly… At 4pm (or whatever time you assign) however, he will still get an email notification to let him know that he has invoices to approve even though he has already completed his action. It would be good if we could remove this. What do you think?

  4. Connect 2 Mail to also allow the usage of .msg not just .pdf and .eml

    I think it is great you added the .eml to the Exchange configuration in Coonect2Mail feature of 6.6.
    However the .eml extension does not allow for forward/reply/reply all from the right-click context menu. This is currently allowed with an Active import and Connect2Outlook stored emails.
    The only way to forward/reply/reply all is to edit the document. This causes a security concern for users that do not have the edit right/ however they were still able to forward/reply/ reply all from the context menu.

    Please look at adding the emails as .msg again from the C2M module.

  5. optional fields for groups or user defined tables

    For index filters in profiles we often use a database view on the DocuWare Users and grups ("dwGroups, dwUsers, dwUserToGroup").
    This helps to make a SQL index filter with the user-group settings.
    Often the group name itself is implemented in the index filter. For example the users in the DW group with the name "grp_Accounting" are just allowed to see documents of the business unit "Accounting".
    SQL index filter: CURRENTUSERLONGNAME() IN (SELECT v.User FROM View V Where (dwdata.dbo.archiv.)BusinessUnit = LEFT(3,v.groupName)
    (or something like that)
    If there would be a possibility to give groups optional fields we could take this information…

  6. Predefine workflow job that converts DWTIFF (DW5.x and DW4.x) to a new PDF format

    If you are dealing with very large documents that we were in DWTIFF format and now you want to bring back to the web basket it take extremely extremely long time to convert to a new PDF format. It works but it will be better if the conversion so done in the server side so that the clients don’t have to suffer

    Currently there are no plans to have an background job which converts tiff files to PDF. Main reason is, that this could take a long time and bring high load to the Server. On the other side we know that less than 1% of “old” documents are displayed after they are archived (on average).

    For all who have a use case where it makes sense to convert old tiff files please contact our Professional Services Team.

  7. More options in "Show User Rights" in admin tool

    It would be nice to see more rights in the "Show User Rights" menu in the admin tool. Examples of desired rights would be Document Trays, Stamps, templates, assigned configurations (user/admin rights)...

  8. CDN with Fallback to Local Script Repository

    Starting with DW 6.6 Hotfix 8 DocuWare the Web.Settings flag "UseLocalCDN" has been set to "false". Quote: "For better performance you should disable this flag. If the flag is disabled, the fat JavaScript libraries are downloaded from Google CDN orother CDNs." There should be a fallback option just in case external CDN are blocked or unavailable.

  9. Batch user tools for managing users.

    Some installations have hundreds or thousands of users. We need tools to manage sub-groups, for ex., the DW customer's customers customers, or enterprise customers with large divisions. In particular one function badly needed is a wayt to export users (and attributes) to CSV or Excel.

  10. I suggest to allow more colors for the stamps or web baskets

    I would like to have the option of choosing more colors when creating any of the following... stamps/web baskets/ file cabinets/ decisions on workflow manager. I have a couple of clients that have a bunch of file cabinets and different colors will make it a lot easier on the eyes.

  11. Allow setting hours and minutes in Schedule of Export/Transfer Workflow in Docuware 7

    Please allow setting hours and minutes again in Schedule of Export/Transfer Workflow instead of only allowing hours. It's a major setback in Docuware 7 compared with former Docuware 6.

  13. Add a feature to automatically update the xml files in file cabinet to match database changes

    It would be very helpful if .xml files were kept in sync with the DocuWare index database automatically.

    As it stands now, if there is database corruption that exists beyond the timeframe of database backups, any index edits can be lost.

    This feature would also help future upgrades and data moves from having corrupt or missing index data. We recently discovered a file cabinet with database and xml issues. It was caused by some improper handling of past upgrades. The issues could have been minimized by syncing the xml files with the database.

  15. Allow selection of location to write temp files for Request container

    When creating Request containers, the files are written to the default temp directory for DocuWare. If the Request cabinet is very large, the C:\ drive can fill up and crash. Need to be able to select an alternate location to write the temp files.

  17. Creating users with more than 200 users or 50 profiles

    Since last update, organizations with more than 200 users can't create new users via Docuware Configuration (web client), they have to do it through DW Administration, and then an email isn't sent to the new user.
    This is a functionality than existed before with the DW Cloud Portal.
    I would like to propose that Docuware remove this restriction in the Configuration panel.

  18. More Information In AutoIndex Start/Stop Dialog

    The choice for Iterated Records in an AutoIndex job is based on what is most expedient from a processing perspective. Though, when the Processed column provides a count of the iterated records, it is confusing. One wants to know the number of records updated in each data source, not the number of records in a file..

    Either more information should be provided in the AutoIndex log or it should count the number of records that were actually updated in each data source. Merely a record count of the iterated records is not of much value. It caused enough confusion for…

  20. Mark Manually Added Users Not to Delete Automatically

    There is a way to automate the revoking of DocuWare group membership, based upon their AD Group Membership. Unfortunately the solution also deletes those manually created accounts, especially all our Administrative service accounts we've created that run our imports, and provide testing users.

    What if it was possible to Auto-Delete Users, EXCEPT those you mark not to delete.
