Allow webservice activity to access its own platform via REST
Allow the Webservice activity to access the DW platform via REST API. From what I can see, you can already authenticate, and assign the status (200) to a GV. We will need to assign the cookie or token from authentication to a variable we can use in any further calls request header. This would make the workflow designer/manager a very powerful tool.

Change File Cabinet in WorkFlow
Create a Workflow in Workflow Designer.
After copying the Workflow, change the File Cabinet.This would allow creation of Workflow outside production Cabinet and then remove re-create error when adding to production Cabinet.

create a pause or wait function in workflow.
When something causes a lot of documents to start a workflow that send a mail message at the same time the mail server starts rejecting connections. This notably happens with pay stub notifications sent to employees that their pay stub is available. I can get around this by creating several workflows and start the workflow based alphabetically by the employees name but it would be nice if I could just set one workflow to pause a certain number of seconds before continuing based on the employee name.
1 voteThank you for your contribution. Your idea is available with version 7.2. There is a wait activity available where you can make the workflow wait for some time.

Copy a worfklow from a File Cabinet to another
We are working with several File Cabinets, with very common and complex workflows in the Workflow Designer. Moreover, we use DocuWare in different environments (development, test and production).
We would really like the possibility to copy a workflow from a file cabinet to another, and/or the possibility to export and import workflows between servers.
Our solution currently is to copy each activities of a workflow one by one to another workflow.37 votesThank you for your contribution. Your idea is available with version 7.4.

Workflow Designer: Stamp customisation
We would like the possibility to:
1: Make the background of stamps flat and not transparent in the workflow designer.
2: Have the possibility in the tasks to choose which indexes of the forms are displayed in the stamp.
We generally used information fields that are useful for the user doing a task but are useless for the stamp itself and makes the document and stamp hardly readable.24 votesThank you for your contribution. Your idea is available with version 7.2.

Workflow Designer -> Assign Data -> Allow List Variables to be assigned more than once
There are two ways I have found to assign list variables:
1. from database query which returns multiple rows
2. from multiple assignment statements without the "replace" box ticked.If 1. is not available, the only way to accomplish is to have a series of Assign Data activities, one per item in the list, since the List Variable is no longer available from the choices of variables to assign data, once it is used the first time.
Creating a loop is also possible, and so far this is the best way I've found, along with using some <ugly> nested VBA…

Workflow Designer -> Assign Data -> Allow Reordering assignment statements
Because of scenarios like a changing workflow definition or project scope, or simply thinking of a new approach to a workflow can disrupt assignment dependencies. Once that happens, then delete all of the subsequent dependent assignments.
It's basically not being able to insert a line in your code. Just delete everything that follows the insertion point, then do the work over again.
Ability to Reorder assignment statements within an Assign Data task can fix this.

Add File connections and Local Data Connector connections to Workflow Engine (External Data)
These ARE available in the on premise version and NOT in the cloud version. How are we to lookup cost centers and approver? Customers cannot maintain gigantic substitution rules they NEED data connections.

Allow entry of multiple field into a Keyword or User LIST global variable
Currently adding a GET DATA lookup you can only add 1 entry to either a KEYWORD or USER LIST global variable.
Example: USER LIST VARIABLE (APPROVERS) should be populated with two index fields (Field1, Field2)
The only way of accomplishing this is creating 2 different GET DATA tasks

Multi Column Select List in Workflow Manager
The new Multi Column Select Lists in 6.9 are nice. However you can not use them in the Workflow Manager. This should be available within workflow manager.

Rename an already used global variable within a workflow
When you are using a complex workflow you sometimes realize that the given name to a global variable is not appropriate
It is a REAL PAIN to delete this variable in every task or create a new variable and replace the old one everywhere.So I suggest to add the ability to modify the name of a variable, even if it is already used within the workflow

Ability to disable Reassigning Tasks
Please provide option to enable or disable reassigning tasks by the users. Even better, allow option to reassign to a role/group/user only or no-one. Currently, if someone mistakenly reassigns a task to someone else, that person inherits the person's privileges (stamps). i.e. an employee inherits a manager's approval stamp. This should be avoided.

When working in Workflow Designer, it would be nice to be able to open 2 workflows at a time.
Sometimes i need to reference another workflow that i have created and it would be easier if i were able to open them side by side instead of having to go back and forth between the 2.

Workflow - Selecting multiple task to assign a new user
When a new user replace an old one, changing all the assignement of running task can only be done one by one.
It could be good that the Workflow controler can change all the task of running job to a new user by a mulitple selection in WebViewer or a specific menu in Designer.2 votesThank you for your contribution. Your idea has been made available with version 7.1.
