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.

Allow workflow global variables in SQL query to retreive external data.
I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue, a bug, or simply unavailable but when building a "where clause" in a workflow for assigning data from external data, I select a workflow global variable as the comparison but it always returns null.
Example: ENTRYTYPE="PROJECT" and PROJECTNAME=GV_gProject
However, if I simply replace "GV_gProject" with the actual hard coded string, the result is correct, so it the query is correct but the GV is not being placed into the query it would seem.
Because the wizard provides access to the global variables, this should function.
For the time being…

Improve use of Workflow System Variables
1) Create a workflow in Workflow Designer.
2) Specify a trigger (it doesn’t matter what it is).
3) Insert an ASSIGN TO activity and assign the task to user ID "A".
4) Insert an ASSIGN DATA activity and set a file cabinet index field to the Workflow System Variable “Assigned to”.
The index field should now contain the user ID "A" assigned in step 3. However, the index field is empty.
5) Insert a TASK activity. In the Decisions tab, Assign to sub-tab, assign the next user to "B".
6) Insert an ASSIGN DATA activity and set the same file…2 votesThis should be somewhat solved with version 6.9. Both issues (after step 4 and after step 7) could not be reproduced by me. We know, that CurrentUser has some drawbacks, but some customers use it like it is and if we change the behavior, it will break their workflows. Recommendation for getting the user of the currently opened task is to use the variable “TaskUser” which is new with version 6.9.

The "assign to" allows to use variable only for one user
The "assign to" allows to use variable only for one user.
If you want to assign tasks dynamically to multiple users or role, you need to use a task but it is not practical.
To dispatch tasks in the beginning of a workflow we do not want a task for doing that.
We should use "assign to" with variable more complexe like 'role' or 'keyword' like in the task

Define a approver list from another field
It would be interesting to be able to define a list of
approver from another field.
For example a list of approver according to a field

Multiple selection for select list in Workflow Manager
In many cases user should be able to select more than one entry from a select list. For example multiple order numbers. These numbers will not be used for assignment, they just have to be stamped to the document. For use cases like this, we need to be able to select multiple entries in a normal select list.
2 votesYou can use the new keyword field for this. There you can add multiple order numbers.

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.

Give us a way to exclude form data in a workflow manager task from being included in the stamp set on the document.
Give us a way to exclude form data in a workflow manager task from being included in the stamp set on the document. These stamps become very crowded and cover up much of the image.

Allow external data DB connection
From 6.10 we are able to connect DocuWare to an external DB using Select list and Autoindex but not from Workflow. Could be very interesting also faster for the process if we can change data at the moment.
1 voteThank you for your idea.
Workflow Manager can already access external database connections, but only for reading data, see here: http://help.docuware.com/en/#b57860t61381n70941

In Workflow Designer could you please make so you can move the Form Fields up or down
When creating Tasks, under decisions and the Forms Tab, there currently is no way to move the fields up or down to put them in a different order. This creates issues if later someone wants to add new fields but put them in a specific order you would have to delete them all and start fresh.

Allow Workflow to assign to user other than store user
At the moment if a user stores a document into a Workflow there is no ability to configure that workflow to dynamically assign to another user. An example would be if a user scans in a time off request. I want the system to be able to pull the manager from an index entry and assign it to them.
