  1. Currently, the image annotation has no way of determining if an image is edited or not. This means, that each time an image is either edited or not, I need to re-save it to the database. This is a performance issue since at times, I can present 20 images in a File Gallery and have no way of determining which ones I should save and which ones I should not save to the database.

  2. 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.

  3. In Portal 2, there is currently no capability for custom buttons to directly listen to the same filters that a portlet uses. This limitation reduces flexibility and can lead to less intuitive user interactions, as demonstrated by the need for users to manually select an item in a scheduler portlet to trigger related custom button actions.

  5. 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

  6. Currently, when we initiate a list selection we can start it closed or fully extended.
    Ideally, we should be able to just show the categories and extend them. Currently they are always fully extended.

    If we have a large list of over 20 items, the grouping could help with navigating easier. Like this, we need to close them first to see them as an overview. There are pictures attached to illustrate this.

  7. Some customers need to run Flow Connect on their premises (on-prem) for different reasons.

    1. Data requirements – Strict data security/privacy/legal requirements where the data is not allowed to leave the premises. For these types of customers, it is essential that everything runs on-prem since they don’t want any connection to the outside networks.
      Some examples:
      • Aerospace & defense
      • Defense manufacturing
      • Healthcare
      • Government and public sector

    2. Low-latency requirements - Some customers have low-latency requirements with systems handling a high volume of transactions/executions. Typically, their existing infrastructure/external systems are already on-prem due to the exact reason. For these…

  10. Solution: Introduce an AI Step in the Designer that allows users to seamlessly integrate pre-defined AI tasks into their workflows. These tasks will enhance workflows with cognitive capabilities such as text analysis, image recognition, and predictive modeling.

    What It Does:
    Users can drag and drop an "AI Step" into a workflow.
    From a dropdown menu, they select from a set of AI tasks to execute within the workflow.
    Incremental Rollout: The library of AI tasks will grow incrementally, with new tasks added based on user demand and technological advancements, ensuring continuous improvement of capabilities.
    Examples of AI Tasks:
    Text Processing:…

  11. Problem: Creating workflows manually can be time-consuming and error-prone, especially for complex business processes. Businesses need a faster, more accurate way to generate workflows that align with their domain and data models.
    Why It Matters: Manual workflow creation delays application development and increases the risk of misalignment with business objectives, leading to inefficiencies and higher costs.
    Proposed Feature/Idea
    Solution: Use AI to automatically generate workflows from user inputs, such as:
    A prompt described in plain language (e.g., "Create a workflow to move inventory parts").
    Existing business process or data model diagrams (e.g., BPMN, UML).
    What It Does: AI analyzes the…

  12. In the context we hae customers like Elvia and soon DSB where flow is having a usage of 300+ projections. With frequent updates in IFS ( ever green with new releases every 6 month and service updates in addition). The projections needs to be recompiled one by one. This is timeconsuming and have a risk of not handling it correctly.

    I would be great and useful to add an option/button/way to easily re-download the metadata of all enabled projections and re-compile them in OData connector.

    Especially, after an update of IFS, it would be great to do it manually.

    Even…

  13. 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…

  14. HTML to PDF connector is a frequently used connector for designing and generating PDF reports in Flow Classic. Additionally, it's also possible to merge existing pdfs with this connector.
    As mentioned in this idea https://ideas.novacura.com/forums/956630-novacura-flow-connect/suggestions/48235034-add-proper-report-print-layout-configuration-to-fl
    The design capabilities of the existing connector are somewhat limited/rigid. Ideally, it should be far easier/flexible to design a report layout in connect. Here are some options we can consider for HTML to PDF connector in Flow Connect.

    Option 1

    Can be divided in to two sub sections.
    a. Report design as its own step in the designer – The idea of this is to…

  15. Typed variables in Flow is a good thing, but most often it creates a lot of extra work to make it work.
    As many of the ideas here suggests, while FlowScript provides a lot of possibilities, it has in its current form made Connect come a bit too far from being Low-Code.

    To simplify the handling of types it would be of great help to be able to easily make sure that the output variables always are of the wanted and expected type.

    For example:
    - In a IFS DB Machine Step be able to easily ("low-codish") define types for…

  16. Portal 2's current interface and interaction design do not cater effectively to tablet and mobile devices, presenting challenges for users on these platforms due to the lack of touch-friendly navigation and responsiveness.

    The enhancement focuses on redesigning Portal 2 to be fully optimized for tablet and mobile devices. This entails revising the user interface to ensure that all elements are easily navigable via touch interactions. Key considerations include increasing button sizes, ensuring that dropdown menus and other interactive elements are easily selectable, and implementing responsive design principles so that the layout adjusts dynamically to fit various screen sizes and orientations.…

  17. There is a need for proper Report Print Layout configuration. Must allow dynamic sizing of all cells in a table/layout, logo, formatting, conditions etc. Today's HTML is far to rigid. For some use cases the layout is so poor that we can't even use it internally, not to mention externally.

    Main need is for PDF, e.g. Word would have been nice, but less important

    Ideally there should be an engine on the backside, allowing to be automatically sent on E-mail or printed to predefined print.

    For IFS users, similar IFS Report Designer and Print Agent. The built in IFS tools…

  18. Is there any way that when adding records for an employee, the name stays highlighted. After each record I enter, I have to re-click on the name to enter more or even see anything pertaining to the employee.

    the user wants the name to be able to remain highlighted while they are doing processes for named user until the processes are completed instead of having to click on the user name each time to create additional processes for them.

  19. New version of parameters for Components in counteractive and in opposition to Lowcode philosophy behind Novacura products. Frankly it looks unfinished, which I hope it is. Moreover in old version you were able to open used Component, which would be even more important now, when they are all dumped in one place and not divided into folders or even show which flows they are assigned to.

  20. Please enable the posibility to listen to the Record Portlet. We offer the possiblity to change data via Workflow, but any saved changes will never trigger an update of other portal objects. This needs to be done manually. I have encountered this in at least 4 projects now where this feature would have been needed.
