Currently we do not have a way to constrain the maximum size of a file that can be uploaded to the Chorus server via "Create Attachment".
A user can attempt to upload a file of any size, and depending on system and network capacity, the upload may succeed or time out.
We need a new optional Configuration Console property which can be checked at the point of attempted upload and will inform the user when a file they are about to upload is too large. The message should be output before the upload starts, in a similar way to the optional constraints on permitted file extension.
For example: max file size set to 40MB. User attempts to upload a 41MB file. An error message appears before the actual upload starts informing the user that the file is too large, ideally indicating the file size and the configured max size.

There is no option to undo in classic forms on Chorus. Please can we have an undo "Ctrl z" functionality? This will save time when creating forms and be a HUGE help for the overall user experience. Every time the users move something by mistake they can't easily take it back, leading to a lot of frustration as this action is common in most applications, especially design. Although the UX builder is coming there are still a substantial amount of historical forms designed in classic thus this feature is still required for small changes in a lot of businesses, and shouldn't be overlooked due to the UX builder.

Enhancement Request: As a Chorus processing user, when I add an attachment (Word or Excel) these documents have a document name as shown in the diagram below. Once it is created in Chorus each attachment is given a 12‑digit Collection ID and the original filename is stored in the FLNM lob field as meta data as shown in the diagram below. When I subsequently download or view the attachment, it uses the Collection ID as the filename in the banner. The use of the Collection ID in the banner is confusing as I am not able to see at a glance what the document is, particularly as I will have multiple documents open. I also have to share these documents with others and the name of the document is incorrect. Therefore when I save the document I have to rename it back to the original document name which introduces potential errors as I must follow a specific naming convention. Desired outcome: When an attachment is opened in its native application, the application banner will display the meta data held in the LOB field (FLNM) and the file to be downloaded with the document name (FLNM). Additional information There was an enhancement made to ROS 2.5 that has the functionality being requested. The source type MASTER has been set up as Revisable: The user has created the MASTER attachment (revisable): The original filename (FLNM) can be set by the user before launching the selected template. When the native application is launched, the meta data from the FLNM is displayed in the banner: When using the save as function, the meta data from FLNM is used.

Currently, in Decipher there is no option to see the submitted batches, which can be helpful for what the user has verified and helps to understand if there is any mistake done by the verification user.
There should be a tab available in Decipher with all the submitted batches and once we click on the particular batch it should show the data as like the Data Verification screen with 3 panels for that batch with Page overview, fields, and mapped/verified data. The batches should be grouped with that specific unique identifies for the template as like if it is Purchase Order then it should have to group with the Document Type and then if the multiple PO templates from customer 'ABC' then batches has to be grouped with that customer name with the timeline of the batch.
From this we can achieve the machine learning capability of the Decipher to train that particular document type and update the way of document training through verification.

Although the setting 'start a personal runtime resource on this machine when users sign in to Blue Prism' affects the whole environment and I assume it is rarely used (why would someone start BP to make it act as a runtime resource that then takes over the workplace?! why not start the process directly in Studio or send it to a dedicated runtime resource?!). By default (at least in 6.9 not sure about 7.3.x yet) each user will register his workplace as possible runtime resource, mixing it with dedicated runtime resources and needs to be removed manually. Having a private runtime resource start when starting BP UI may also cause issues with network ports and other system resources. Currently the only option to deactivate the 'start a personal runtime resource' is to login into BP and change it manually, on each workplace/resource, which can only be done with BP admin rights, so users are not even able to change settings for their own workplace. Some ideas on how to improve the situation: make the 'personal runtime resource' disabled by default make it a system wide setting allow users to change this setting for their own workplace have this setting easily changeable in an automated way. eg via CLI, config file (that can be amended during install process) make it a centrally managed feature of a runtime resource/workplace similar to eg logging levels that can be changed in System\Resources\Management any other possible idea that might help but is not listed here

I believe it is advantageous to include the list of default objects within the learning edition of Blue Prism (which was the case prior to 7.3). I can't speak on behalf of everyone but we currently don't have a training environment within our Enterprise install of Blue Prism and utilise the learning edition to run training of the Blue Prism product.
Not having these included with the learning edition requires us to provide a release file to each trainee, or have them download what they need from DX directly.
Also, I note that the documentation is not correct for verifying an installation as it still points to the VBO folder, which is now empty as of 7.3.

With Search forms and potentially and Chorus form designed for work processing whether UXBuilder, Dynamic Forms, or Traditional forms the ability to denote a one of these are required. My thought on implementation would be to contain the fields within a group box and mark the box with a css class of oneOfThese. There could be multiple group boxes with independent oneOfThese markers. This was implemented as custom javascript on a Search form that required a hidden text input that was marked required that the custom javascript managed inputting/clearing to get the Search button enabled/disabled appropriately.

As part of accessibility standards, users navigating by keyboard (using the tab key) should be able to move sequentially from left to right and top to bottom through the focusable elements on a page. They should also be able to see the tab focus. Tabbing in Processor does not meet this standard. Users should be able to start at the Workspace menu and tab across (to User profile) and down (through function cards Worklist, Search, Create et cetera, and Quick Creates), then tab through their open cards and minimized cards.

Currently, the Exception Types are created by users manually typing into the combo box within the Exception Stage's properties.
This often leads to multiplication of the same exception type due to typos, misunderstandings, etc.
Example below:
This in turn becomes a nightmare when it comes to reporting, as often a hard set rule cannot be followed for extrapolating these from the overall pot.
I suggest removing the ability to add new exception types by typing into the combo box, and instead make it a privileged action within the System settings.
For example within the already existing Exception Type screen:
This could be done by implementing an "Add new exception type" action on the side panel, below the already existing "Scan processes"

When generating letters using Chorus Communications, there are a number of options that are only available from the Packaging screen. This means this functionality can only be accessed in a Presentation Flow and it must be manually updated by a user. For instance, changing the output from Print to Email, or selecting enclosures. We would like all of this functionality available by other means to support automation. For instance, via webservice calls or via a custom cog in Design. The goal is to be able to access these additional functionality from an Automation Service so we can have a wider range of letters that do not require human interaction.

Add the functionality to be able to move stages within the process & object studio using the arrow keys on a keyboard. Currently the only way to move stages is by using the mouse and this can prove difficult when attempting to move and restructure sections of a process/object. The application doesn't respond well to moving stages with a mouse and can lag making it difficult to move and align with other stages of a process/object. Adding functionality to move with arrow keys would enable us to move stages with more precision and in a user friendly way.

Using Communications to send emails, I need the ability to auto-populate multiple CC recipients rather than only being able to auto-populate the recipient and one CC Recipient. In the manually process I can only add additional CC recipients from the document delivery screen but cannot store or capture those recipients in the process. With automated emails I can only send multiple emails to include more that one CC Recipient.

It would be beneficial to designers integrating with REST services to natively provide instructive messages for connectivity exceptions. OpenApi/Swagger describes http response codes but not java exceptions outside normal http flow. For example this exception is captured for connection errors: com.dstawd.processengine.model.flowobjects.AutomatedActivityFlowObject.executeService(ProcessInstance, String, String, Element): Service failed to execute. Error: java.lang.IllegalAccessException: The response object is javax.ws.rs.ProcessingException, not an fastrequirementsapi.ApiException Service Error Stack: It would be beneficial for these types of errors to expose the actual java exception or a friendlier message to the designer. This information can be found in log files that typical designers do not have access to.

Using CDOC, we need the ability to request and resubmit a previously completed communications document using the same recipient block. Allow Communications to automatically resend the document that was originally sent or mailed to the recipient after XX number of days based on logic that is built within the Process Model. More importantly, if the original document was edited before being created in Communications (ie. Insert Content) we want those edits to be included in any additional attempts. Currently, if we try to automate a 2nd delivery of a document, Communications will send the document, but any edits that were made to the original document from the first attempt are not being captured. (See attached screen shots) We would like Communications to function like Encorr did in terms of sending a copy of the original document, including any edits that were made.

Problem Statement: Currently we have a number of use cases which require Python scripts to complete specific NLE activity or to support with the management of files such as: encrypting/ decrypting with specific PGP keys converting protected PDF documents to unprotected, editable and readable documents for OCR extraction managing multiple PDF documents such as deleting pages, merging documents These scripts are currently utilised as standalone py files which are triggered via Blue Prism; but not within Blue Prism. Proposed Solution: Include Python as a supported language within Blue Prism code stages Provide Python as an installable supporting application alongside core Blue Prism product installer Provide the ability to run 'pip install' to obtain dependencies for scripts all within Blue Prism.

Enhance manual comments to allow comments to be flagged as either private/internal or public/external/global. All comments would be visible to users in Processor Workspace, but the RESTful API would be enhanced so that only comments explicitly marked as "public" would be exported via API for use in (e.g.) an external case-tracking Portal. Analogue would be Service Now's use of "work comments" (only visible internally in Service Now) and "additional Information" comments, visible to both SNOW users and clients.
