Blue Prism has the option included for creating multiple references to a single process or object as part of its multi-team-environment feature. To create a new reference you hold down the Control key while dragging a process or object to a new group. This creates a reference to the same process, meaning changes made when accessing the process via one instance are effective on the other instance. This is confusing since Control + drag is a commonly used way of creating a separate copy of something (for example files or folders in WIndows). When you create a duplicate in Windows via Ctrl + drag, the new instance is separate from the original and any changes made to one instance are only made to that one. If you want to create a copy of a process in BP you have to open the process and then use 'Save As' which is not necessarily obvious or the simplest method. I would recommend that two new menu items be added to the right-click menu for processes and objects: Create new reference; This would do what Ctrl + drag does now, creating a new reference to the same process. I would add some identifying feature to the process icon to be able to identify these multi-reference process from a standard, unique process. Create copy; This would create a separate and distinct copy of the process without the need to open the process. The function of Ctrl + drag could then be switched to be in line with the more common use of creating a copy although I appreciate that this change may cause confusion for those already familiar with the function. ...

would like a GUI update to the stages on the tool bar to make them differentiated more easily. Think the layout is pretty painful to scan your eyes over and even something very small like some delineating lines would go a long way to making the stages more readable/differentiable and easier to use. ...

It can be difficult and confusing to follow the execution stack in textual way as presented in execution logs. It would greatly improve readability if calls and executions could be collapsed and expanded to provide abstraction and drill-down function.  Super extra would be to present those levels in visually. Similar to process/VBO workflows but since it is chronologically there will be only one line of execution. ... View more

When working the code stages, if a code is not used or kept aside to have look later then Blueprism will not allow to run the process or object. throws error to fix that, even we are not using that. unused code stages might be many but then also we should be able proceed with step in or run the process/object. ...

We would like to see an 'Inactive User' feature or box in future Blue Prism releases. Our company has a User-it-Or-Lose-it access policy, which means that a user who hasn't logged into Blue Prism in 90 days will be required to have his access revoked. To revoke access, we delete a Blue Prism user from the environment. If the user requests access to the environment after they have been deleted, we have to engage our database administrator to undelete from the database. This adds extra time and work to the access provisioning process. We think that an 'inactive' box will allow us to revoke access and follow company policy while keeping the users in the Blue Prism environment. ... View more

Provide a vault, website, or repository for Blue Prism users to access their Control Room data; process logs / logging, queue data, all session data. Currently, any "Controller" can access the Control Room and view all processes session logs. This poses a risk as process logs can contain sensitive data. Turning Verbose Logging off, or setting it to errors only is the workaround this issue, however this makes the developer's and business's troubleshooting and automation maintenance tasks extremely difficult. Queue data is also visible for all Controllers in the Control Room. Queue data can also contain sensitive data. We would like access to this data to be restricted, if not entirely removed from the control room. This data could later be accessed in a vault or repository that Blue Prism would provide. ...

Auto classify and Auto verify - this feature should be controllable in terms of batch type or at document definition level, controlling this at the global level means no sense unless we are using decipher just for one process Table delimiter - there should be an option to define the table delimiter so that unwanted information (in cases where there is two tables this is causing issues) When using Exclude value option, I could see that it seems to check whether that word exits in the sentence rather than exact match. Will be great if that can be configured to take exact text or option for both In terms of development, one of the main trouble is not being able to add a file and test it out, if adding a sample file and testing it out in preview is added that will really help in terms of development. Since blue prism is not having a VBO out of the box to handle pdf, including a method to define the specific page from which the data has to be extracted will avoid unnecessary pages being processed. The ability to use Classification and extraction as combined as well as individual modules, will help a long way . (so the process which requires classifying documents alone can also use decipher for the same) ... View more

Hi, it would be good if the schedule functionality could be amended so that there is no need to wait for all machines to finish a task before moving onto the next task. I believe scheduling would be improved if once any machine has completed a task that machine will move onto the next task. ... View more

We are trying to monitor for work queue items that take longer than they should (e.g. when the application a process is interacting with is hanging). I see a "locktime" (and "lockid") column in the BPAWorkQueueItem table even, but it does not seem to be used. I suggest the time that an item is locked for working be recorded here or somewhere similar. This will facilitate monitoring how long an item has been worked on, even before it is finished, in case it doesn't finish in a timely manner. We looked into using loadtime but that seems to be when the current batch of items was loaded as opposed to when a specific item was picked up by a Get Next Item stage, and worktime seems to be only recorded at the end of an item's work time so it cannot help in the moment. ...

While upgrading our BP platform  (up to 6.5.0), I have checked the BO provided with the new version with the previous version, for example the VBO MS Excel.

​We are attempting to filter queue tags ("close;cancel") Items in the queue are tagged either close or cancel. When we step over the get next item and there are tagged items in the queue, nothing is locked. Doing some research, it appears that BP considers the semicolon as an "AND" when filter.  The workaround for your current situation would be to search once using the first tag, then search again using the other. This would return the results set(s) containing "X" OR "Y". I would like to see BP add a way to filter a work queue using an "OR" operator ... View more

Hi Team, I'm aware of process discovery tool but it does not give quantifiable number or score to qualify any potential manual process as an automation candidate within RPA - BP. Please develop an excel or sort of tool that can test and evaluate current manual process on some criteria and assign a score so to propose it as a potential RPA automation candidate. This will enable business to explain customers in their decision making process while selecting a new candidate process for RPA automation. I'm sharing this based on recent discussion with customer.

The VFL is not very readable, when compared to BP code, and without the ability to comment your VFL code  it could easily become a support headache in the future.
