1. Docuware forms should have a table field that indexes a table index field

   In docuware 7.1 there is a new index field type of table. This is great except it isn't all that useful without being able to automatically enter data into the table. Our purchase order requests for example have to index a quantity, price, description, and 2 accounting codes for each line item. So currently, I have a spreadsheet that I print into docuware with a print configuration and it indexes each of those items so it can be used to import into our accounting system. I can't index the table items with the print configuration. According to your documentation page at, https://developer.docuware.com/dotNet_CodeExamples/workWithTableFields.html
   "NOTE
   Tables are only supported for Store dialogs, Index dialogs and in Workflows.
   Tables cannot be added to search dialogs and content in tables can only be found through fulltext search."

   That makes it pretty useless. If I could use the table field, I could replace 220 index fields (5 indexes a piece for 44 line items) with 1 table field. It would cut my sql code to export the data from 3740 lines down to 102, eliminate the empty index fields for line items that are not used and eliminate the limit of line items on a PO.

   If I could use a docuware form to populate the table field I could eliminate the need for the excel spreadsheet. I would think adding the table field to the form should be relatively easy. Make it either definable like a dropdown list or defined by a table field in a file cabinet. Then there would be the added complexity of populating fields in it with a select list that would also be needed in my case.

   Thank you for your idea. We are planning to implement this idea for release 7.9 of DocuWare, which will be in September 2023.

2. Visual improvements to Workflow Designer

   I would like the ability to reorder Decisions within a task and their outputs, alter the size and shape of activities, and select a bunch of the activities and move them all at once. Right now it is very tedious and time-consuming to design a workflow that is visually clear.

   Thank you for your contribution. We are now working on a new version of the Workflow Designer, which will bring a whole new user experience, so we set this wish to “Planned”.
   I’d like to point out that a couple of things are possible in the meantime, like reordering decision and now also reordering data assignments. Multiselect will come with the new version.
   In case of changing size and shape of the activities, we are not planning to do this currently.
   I’d be happy to learn why and how this would help you in your daily work.
