  1. Parrallel conditions

    Amount of activity outputs depends on number of conditions.
    If condition A is fulfilled a certain route is taken etc etc.

    For example. If 10 Document Types needs different actions it would promote efficiency. One does not have to do 10 different condition activities nor do you have to build 10 different workflows.

  2. Email Notification Link via Workflow

    Currently Workflow Designer does not allow you to generate the link name from variables with in DW only so the only option is to hardcode it.

    It would be nice to be able to use the filename and a date as the link in the email being received by end users. It gives more meaning that hard coding the word document and then followed by variables

  3. WF Steps as templates

    Once I've created a WF step, ex., Task or Assign to, etc., I'd like to copy it and use it as a template for use in later steps in the overall WF. Please add this feature.

  4. wait for event

    Hello,

    I would like to request a change in the "Wait For Event" timeout configuration.

    Justification:

    We have encountered a product limitation during the transition from one event to another. In certain circumstances, an error can occur that delays the workflow by approximately two minutes when moving from one assignment box to the wait for event box.

    Specifically, we have observed that in some instances, wait for event stucks waiting because the trigger workflow has already finished before wait for event event starts. The workflow that triggers the "Wait For Event" takes about 20 seconds to complete, and we cannot…

  5. Automatic clipping

    Automatic clipping of documents based on a common predefined index field to avoid users having to manually clip documents together because of indexing the documents; usually documents are stored separately and would appreciate if the system can auto clip based on a criteria defined in the designer or auto index configuration.

  6. We need to have a counter in the workflow designer to enable creation of loops in the workflow based on number of iterations.

    We need to have a counter in the workflow designer as an activity to enable creation of loops in the workflow based on number of iterations. The counter can be used in conjunction with workflow conditions to create loops and termination of loops.

  7. Field Numbering in DocuWare Workflow Designer

    Add numbering to the fields in Workflow Designer "Assign Data" steps. If I have 200 fields and I get an error on my workflow on one of them, say field 100, I need to count all fields manually to get to line 100 instead of looking at the line numbers on the side.

  8. Allow Sorting when pulling data to tablefield

    When pulling rows into a table field using the adopt all rows in a fixed order, you should be able to set an order using an order by clause in the sql statement. Examples includes po lines items where you should be able to pull in the details order by the po line number.

  9. Ability to use Roles instead of hard-coded user names in workflow designer's tasks validation

    In workflow task validation (data input validation condition) use of Roles should be added currently (V7.5) only hard-coded user names can be specified so if the user needs to be removed or added (because employees change), it creates a new version of workflow and that causes issue because the change is only effective for new documents and not effective for the existing ones.

  10. Using html email including global variable from a technical filecabinet to be able to manage a preconfigured solution

    We need to store in a memo the HTML body of an email designed for a customer in a technical filecabinet to be able to easily deploy a preconfigured solution without the need to edit a workflow.
    This Memo field will include global variable like this one [DWDOCUMENTTYPE].

  11. assign a form field as a global variable

    I want to assign a form field that is not indexed as a global variable in Workflow Designer. I can't do that unless it is an index entry.

    These fields on the form need to be changeable, but do not need to be indexed.

  12. Separate the Workflow designer from the activities that are covered by the workflow.

    When there a high number of active instances, the Workflow Designer times out without loading the details in the bottom of the screen and we cannot access the workflow itself.

  13. Stamp the document as an automatic activity

    This would be awesome. Many workflows and approval processes are automated and auto-approved if for example 1+1 = 2. However theres no way to see any indicator of this process on the document itself. If we could place a stamp on the document as an activity (not user task), this would be very helpful.

  14. On Change Event

    I suggest adding an "on change" event to dialogs in the workflow designer.

    We have a workflow where users need to match credit card statement line items to invoices/receipts. When the user selects an invoice vendor and invoice number, I want to show more detail about the invoice in real time so the user can be sure they selected the correct one.

    For example, the user selects vendor "Microsoft" from the first input box, and they select invoice number "1234" from the second input box (which has been filtered based on the selection of "Microsoft" above). When that second input…

  15. stamps

    Add option to display first and last name to stamp. Some of our usernames are generic for example Warehouseclerk01. Yet the First and last Name are assigned to a person Jon Doe. This would be nice to show on the stamp instead of user name.

  16. (Workflow designer) Wants to get the numeric column of a table field as an entry in Data assignment.

    We want to assign the table field index data to a global variable. Currently we can get the text type of the Table field as expected, but the number type does not appear as a candidate for entry.

    We have to get the number type value of Table field as well.

  17. Workflow Validation Error message customizable

    When creating a validation within a task in the Workflow Designer, one can only write a fixed error message. It would be way more user-friendly if this message was customizable just the same way as workflow fields are, e.g. a description field.
    This would allow inclusion of global variables and index data in the error message, providing great flexibility and a way to point the user to their error more specifically.

  19. Workflow Designer - Add option to 'Cancel' if Error exits not connect

    When Publishing a Workflow and forget to connect an Error exit, warning is displayed only with 'Publish' button (see attached).

    It'd be useful to have a 'Cancel' button as well to return to Workflow and connect the missing exit instead of being forced to publish incomplete Workflow.

    Thanks!

  20. Add integration link functionality into Workflow notifications

    I would love to be able to generate dynamic DW Integration links in Workflow (based on index data and/or global vars). My main use case would be to use one or more links in a notification.

    Currently just getting an integration link requires a web service. (Web services are typically not trivial for our cloud customers.)

    And then, having a URLEncoded link, it is plopped as-is into the text of the notification which is really quite ugly.

    Please consider integrating integration links in workflow.
