  1. 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.

  2. URL Creater Options

    I would like to be able to create URL's that will take someone to the full Docuware interface while still redirecting them to the piece I want. Currently, if I want to take someone to their task list, it gives them a pruned down interface that doesn't allow them to use all of the features of docuware. Very confusing for the users, as there is no easy way to get the the full interface from the hobbled version.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  6. Allow use of SQL Queries to get a "Predefined" search term.

    I would like to be able to use an SQL query to get the value for a predefined search field.

    For instance, to be able to say that the Location field is locked to "SELECT LOCATION from dbo.USER_INFO where USERNAME = 'CURRENTUSERNAME'"

    This would allow the predefined fields to be much more useful. The current set of five options is not very thorough, and not extensible at all. Being able to use those five predefined options in SQL queries would open up a much wider scope. Especially if they could be used in conjunction with the index data of the…

  8. 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.

  9. Auto Index Failure Notification

    When an Auto Index error occurs the workflow stops. There does not seem to be any type of notification that occurs, and typically is discovered by the end user when indexes are missing. An email notification to the admin would be great so they could address the error prior to an end users discovering it.

  10. 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…

  11. Bring back the option 'Create a document tray for every assigned user' within the configuration.

    Since Dw 6.11, every document tray should be created one by one manually for each user. Which is very funny for mid & large organization. Bring back the option from previous versions "Create a document tray for every assigned user'.

  12. reoccuring

  13. 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.

  14. Separate permissions focused on export option

    In new versions we suggest that download, print and e-mail options be separate in the management of docuware profiles. These options should not be focused on the "export" option. For our organization these separate options would give a better control of permissions on users and is very necessary.

  15. 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.

  16. Allow error links to be hidden in Workflow Designer

    It would be wonderful if we can toggle off the display of the red error links, maybe also providing some indication on the item that it is connected (for example change the color on the handle of the error output.) For complex workflows with many automatic steps, the error links can become overwhelming.

  18. 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).

  19. Audit Log Program

    I know that you can turn on audit logging for access, delete, edit etc.. of documents, but it is put in notepad files and get overwritten and difficult to search. Would be a great feature to have an application that does this.

  20. Stamp Bitmap with Form Field

    Currently, if I define a stamp using a bitmap (a nice big angled "Rejected.jpg" image for example), I also want to require the user to specify a rejection reason.

    If I do not use a bitmap, I can specify fields. But if I use a bitmap I cannot. This by definition means that I cannot combine a bitmap with a prompt to specify a region.

    Please add the ability to use fields with bitmap stamps so that we can prompt users for additional data to go with the stamp.
