  1. Can we please rename Packages to Apps in the product?

    Currently the way most apps configured in FLIP means an
    App Package = Apps (and project management)
    App = Functions or Actions (approve time report)

  6. Flow developers often need to create solutions that extend beyond Novacura Flow, enabling smoother integration with external systems and enhancing functionality without modifying the ERP. Direct links to applications make this possible by allowing users to trigger app executions instantly—whether from external applications or directly through emails.

    Typical Use Cases:
    External Links in Applications:
    For example, a custom menu in IFS can trigger an application execution with pre-filled input data, enabling developers to build custom apps that fill gaps or extend ERP functionality. This approach, often referred to as “extend on the outside,” allows for powerful customization without altering core…

  8. Currently, the inability to run offline flows in debug mode in Studio complicates development and testing, significantly increasing development time. Resolving this issue soon will streamline the process and improve efficiency

  9. Our framework is currently stringent in how to work offline: you download your sources (like in the morning), start working (deliberately offline) and your transactions are synced as soon as you are back online.
    In many circumstances Flow users in service do not know whether they will have internet while working though and they work offline foregoing on many advantages of being online.
    Ideally, we would have a variable available in our start variables (like DeviceId and ClientType) so that in the flows we can take different paths depending on whether the user has internet or not - analog to…

    The feature request has been approved and is now scheduled for development. Our product team has determined that it aligns with our product roadmap and will bring value to our platform. We will keep you updated on its progress.

  10. We have Novacura deployed on numerous handheld scanner devices running the Android client. Being able to lock out manual keyboard entry to certain input fields and require the input to come from the scanner would significantly improve the workflow for our users, and reduce the possibility of errors from manual entry as opposed to scanning the barcode directly.

  11. Currently, Flow Studio allows developers to view the XML code of their workflows by pressing F7, but there is no direct way to integrate these files with GitHub for version control and code storage, only server side in the Flow Server.

    Proposed solution is to implement a direct integration feature between Flow Studio and GitHub, as an alternative to Flow version management. This feature would enable users to seamlessly push the XML files of their workflows directly to a GitHub repository from within Flow Studio.

  12. In the current versions of Portal it is quite difficult/impossible to display multiple pins on the exact same location. We have another Map-solution which handles this quite well, and I would propose something similar be added to the map for Flow Connect. See attached screenshots.

    We have used these libraries to achieve this: https://github.com/Leaflet/Leaflet.markercluster
    https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-leaflet-cluster

  14. Flow Classic has a way to send push notifications via swimlanes. I have never been a fan of using swimlanes, but you could at least use them to send push notifications.

    In Flow Connect, I'd like to see Novacura implement a "connector" that could perform the same functionality. The connector could: iterate through a list of users, require a Push Notification message, optionally pass in an app GUID that would "forward" the user once they click on push notification to.

    Bonus points if you could use a websocket backend so this could also be implemented in the webclients as well…

  15. In portal2 we have the option to use filter with different type of operator’s, and we would like to be able to use the operator “IN” to allow multiselect in the filter like for example

    Work order

    90,91

    Select both work order 90 and the 91 and filter accordingly

  16. Novacura Flow should be able to handle electronic (digital) signatures. This should support multiple signatures and allow a user to decide where each signature should be on the document. As a requirement, the customer would have to be able to upload a personal certificate that is uploaded to a keystore and should support .pdf formats.

  17. Flow 6.15 and the earliest versions offer a possibility to choose a type of property which is either text or table. The latter ensures that more data can be stored under one property.
    Infor M3 Labs uses that funcitonality to store a dynamic data that affects the way how each and every workflow behaves, ie. the prompt proposals, buttons and input fields, automation of user steps are just a few to mention.
    In other words, the end-users, who more often than not are function-oriented, can utlize the table to adjust the values in the table.
    By that, workflows can be…

  18. Today, a customer can download offline data. But if the app crashes, or the user in the field (who is offline) makes changes and then app crashes or they quit out by accident, its confusing to the user as to what has been completed. To the user, it feels like the data has been lost.

    An example, lets say I have an offline flow which downloads 10 records in a table. While offline, I add 2 new records to that table, and go to the next step. If the app crashes when the app reopens, and the flow is rerun,…

  19. Support for multiple languages in Flow can be a involved process and with many large workflows in a solution it can be challenging to provide a consistent translation (and terminology!) in your apps. In the translation industry, a common way to work is to have a side-by-side or spreadsheet view of all text with the original language on one side and the translations on the other. I would love it if the Languages tab in Environment could collect all text from one or multiple apps and then put that text in a table with editable fields where you can enter…

  20. Typically when developing an App or a set of Apps, you don't exactly know how the Apps will end up and it is difficult to have a clear component strategy from the start.

    It would therefore be super helpful to be able to take a part of an app, a sequence of workflow elements, and turn that into a component when needed. Directly from the Designer.

    Preferably the function should be smart enough to suggest required input to the component.

    When created, the selected sequence of workflow elements should be replaced automatically by the newly created component.
