  3. We require a change in the data grid component to support editable datetime columns. This is need for our users to be able to select dates and times in the brewing process that is very sensitive.

  4. 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…

  5. Current login screen only shows "Flow 6" (not even Novacura is mentioned).

    We are gearing up adding external partners to the portal. It both creates suspicion and looks amateurish without our company name, and preferable logo, in the login screen. Enabling us to brand the layout with name, logo and maybe even colour would have made a big impact on the first impression.

  6. We would like to have bigger scroll bars for all portlets in portal 2. Users use big screens zoomed out and have a hard time clicking on the scroll bars since they are so thin. A suggestion is to make the size of the scroll bars a user setting.

  7. We want to be able to access the user's client language selection as an environment variable (just like we can access 'userId') inside the Designer.

    A common scenario is where we call a third-party system from an App (a "workflow") and need to send it a language code, which returns different results. And we don't (and can't) always call an ERP in every app to fetch the user's language. Hence, we need to be able to make logical decisions within an app/designer based on the "Windows Entra language" of the user currently executing it, or the language the user selects…

  8. When debugging and you come to assertion step or script step that prompts an error or information you can not go back like you do if you do not debug. You need to restart. This is super annoying and a bad legacy from how it worked in Classic so please add the same function as it is in the client when you are not debugging.
    Thank you!

  9. Remember from before if end user chose card or table layout and open it the next time they log in. Can be extended to other user step elements.

  10. Currently, the user step includes:

    Image Viewer

    Image Selection

    File Gallery

    However, we are missing a PDF Viewer, which would be a very powerful addition.

    Purpose and Benefits:

    In-app Document Viewing:
    Allow users to open and view PDF documents directly within the workflow, without needing to open an external application.

    Document Editing:
    Enable users to make basic changes to PDF documents (e.g., annotations, comments, or form filling) and save the updates.

    Multi-page Support:
    The viewer should support navigating through multiple pages easily.

    Digital Signature:
    Allow users to sign PDF documents directly within the viewer.

    Full-Screen Mode:
    Users should be able…

  12. Now we can set Alternate row coloring only for single portlet. It should be possible to set it for all portlets globally.

    Now we can set it for single portlets in menu Edit / Style / Row.
    It should be added to global settings in Style / Branding / Theme

  13. 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…

  14. We kindly request the implementation of a new feature within Flow Studio, allowing the integration of "Workflow Fragment" as a Seed Item while utilizing a data arrow to the start step. Currently, any attempt to include a Workflow Fragment as a Seed Item leads to undesired outcomes. Specifically, when users press the "Run" button, the flow crashes, or upon selecting the "Publish" button, an error message surfaces: "Missing mapping for NovaCura.Flow.Designer.CanvasItems (..). Possible usage of unconverted elements from previous Flow versions."

    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.

  16. The IFS .NET Access Provider is expected to support a timeout parameter, allowing users to configure how long a task should wait before timing out. However, this functionality is not currently implemented in Novacura's IFS10 connector. As a result, all long-running tasks time out after one minute, with no available option to extend this limit.

    This limitation hampers the execution of tasks that take more than one minute to complete, making it impossible to include them in flows. This leads to inflexibility in designing complex workflows and might impede the completion of important business processes.

    We propose implementing the timeout…

  17. Flow currently requires users to download files in order to view them, a process that some customers find inconvenient. There is a clear preference for viewing image files within the flow itself without the need for downloading.

    Therefore, we propose an enhancement to enable viewing of common image file types (e.g., JPEG, PNG) directly within the Flow interface. This feature will enhance the user experience, allowing quick and convenient access to image content and reducing the steps required for users to interact with image files.

  18. This request aims to enhance the capabilities of the DataGrid by allowing workflow designers to define the visibility of buttons based on data within the DataGrid. This functionality will provide greater control over user forms and user steps, enabling users to display specific fields and buttons selectively based on the data context, which is particularly useful for mobile optimization and conditional button enabling scenarios.

    Sample Use Cases:

    Mobile Optimization: When designing a user form with numerous fields, buttons, and DataGrid data, the feature would enable the designer to show only certain fields on mobile devices to optimize the user experience.

  19. A feature enhancement that allows users to update the values of flow variables from outside of a script. Currently, when working with variables X and Y, executing a script step only allows for returning a value to overwrite one of them, or utilizing a complex workaround with a record to update both variables. We propose the addition of a simple syntax, such as ":flow.X = "something";" within the script, where the ":flow" prefix defines the scope of the variable being modified. This improvement will streamline the process of updating variables, eliminating the need for additional steps and making script operations…

    Thank you for voting on this feature request. Our product team is currently reviewing it and evaluating its feasibility and potential impact. We will keep you updated on any progress.

  20. In the web client, when a grid is present in the user step, an option appears to expand the UI to the full browser window.

    Feature request: always show the expand option for the user's step (regardless of whether there is a grid inside).

    Also, make it a designer option to default to expanded or collapsed. Today it seems to remember my choice next time I run the app, but that is probably only for that app and that browser. Be able to control it more generally, both as an admin and as a user.
