Read data from a (text based) PDF

0 1

I am trying (without any success) to read data (ie. employee id) from an existing text-based PDF (test pdf created via MS Word). The documentation is explaining the different actions (ie. wait for ocr ai, wait for text-layer), but not how they actually work together or how to use them. Maybe I am completly wrong in trying to use "OCR AI recognition", "Wait for OCR AI" etc..... My goal is: * A configured hot-folder puts a pdf into a workflow (=> working) * A step/action/etc. reads the em (...)

Disappearing leave's in the graph

0 1

Hi, I'm using version 2025.1.1.44 and came across a strange behaviour. We have a leave of absence process. On the first day of leave, it is visible in the absence chart. On the second day and until the end it stops being visible! After the leave ends it becomes visible once again. This is very strange, but I guess it is not a problem of the process, but only concerning the display of the absence chart. Has anyone experienced such a behaviour? Has it been a bug and is now fixed in the curren (...)

Problem with counting notifications on the Portal

0 1

Hello, I have a case on the portal. An employee was on leave for about 3 years, and during that time, their account in AD was blocked. When they returned, the account was unblocked. They now have almost 5,000 active notifications, which makes working on the portal very difficult because everything runs very slowly. Interestingly, the issue disappeared for a few days but then came back again. Does anyone have any ideas?

MailApproval - Confirmation mail

Hi, Is it possible to suppress the confirmation (positive) email from MailApproval? Or to design the automatically generated email? Background: In my opinion, this information is partly misleading to the user. e.g.: Betreff: RE: Mail genehmigt: ablehnen (final) (english: Subject: RE: Mail approved: reject (final)) => The user is right to ask: My rejection has now been approved? What? => Would be better: RE: Aktion erfolgreich: ablehnen (final) (english: RE: Action successful: reject ( (...)

Implementing a Countdown Timer on a Form – Anyone Done This Before?

0 1

Hi everyone, We're working on a process in WEBCON where we need to display a countdown timer on a form. Specifically, we want the timer to be shown in the [time until next adjustment] field, counting down to the next scheduled update. The timeout is set to update the [value] field, and the countdown should dynamically reflect the remaining time until that happens. Has anyone implemented something similar ? If so, how did you approach it? Any insights or best practices would be greatly (...)
