Hi there.
We are about to use joget for the first time and I watched the movies and read KBs. But there are questions for me that I like to have explained.
First I created a more complex workflow out of the blue with some remarks of our team of features the WF should have.
These are the remarks we found.
Case 1 – No File was uploaded
On Windows Edition:
We inserted many different files into a file field.
Small and big files, in every case there was no problem even uploading 50mb files.
We use joget on a windows server2008.
Trying to open the attachment is not possible, we get a 404 error screen.
The URL just looks like that, it seems to be a problem with the “null” part and the dot behind the file name.
Update: The file is also not in the specified upload folder. We definded one in the settings without any change.
Case 2 – Mandatory fields in read only sub forms are validated
We created one form with some sub forms. Always one of the sub forms are not read only, but they are there for informational purpose. If there is a mandatory field in a sub form that is read only, it is validated and blocks the process. “Please fill out all necessary fields”. We can’t, the sub form is read only.
Is there a way to bypass this validation if the sub form is read only without creating a second form where it is not mandatory?
Case 3 – Case overview
Is there a way to show a specific form to have an overview of the process instance even if it’s finished or running? We could need this for project meetings or emergency meetings.
Case 4 – JSON API doesn’t need authorization
We set the master user and password for the JSON API.
If we don’t use it in the json url, it works.
If we set it in the url, it works.
If we set it incorrectly, it works.
We don’t want to give full access. Does the API use the normal login if the master password is incorrect or not used in the url?
Case 5 - Use a title field in Inbox
An inbox contains the process type but not a “title”, so there can be 3 processes of the same type and you can’t divide them. How can you add a custom column to the inbox?
Case 6 – Duplicate a WF in an App
We are using very similar but different WF’s in one App. Sometimes we have to adjust an WF for a special request. If we use versions, we update every instance of one WF. Is it possible to duplicate the Workflow?
Case 7 – Escalation after getting a task
Escalations happen (ie 2h) after a task gets into that inbox. Can we change the duration of the inbox if the person accepts the tasks, or smthng. Like that? If the task is at already work, the escalation shouldn’t start at the moment the person gets the job, it should start if the person took too long.
Case 8 – Use variables in SLA, tools and exceptions
May we use form variables in SLA, tools and excetions? We would like to use a multivalue field with recieptiens for a mail and send informations to them after the form is triggered. We would like to let the project management enter the sla and exection duration for later steps.
Case 9 – Create an exception over a loop
If we have loops in our workflow, is it possible to realize an exception that starts before the loop and uses an exception if the process is stuck too long in the loop of steps?
Case 10 – Download files without sub form
How do you use a file uploaded in a former step without a sub form? You cannot use a workflow variable to show the files.
Case 11 – Send uploaded files as attachments
How can we send uploaded files as attachments in an email tool? Or how do we send Links to a file?
Yours sicerely,
Daniel
