1. Upload documents not user friendly. Can it be changed so that the user bulk uploads the documents and then selects the document type. 2. The document that you upload disappear when you change the document type, this is confusing for the user and makes them question whether something has been uploaded. The user also cannot easily see what they have uploaded before submitting.

When the Time field format is selected on a field in UX Builder, the custom masking functionality does not allow the same level of functionality that Classic & Dynamic forms provide in conjunction with the data dictionary and masking. For example, in the two screenshots below, the user can simply add numbers (such as 0930) and the form will automatically add a colon (making it 09:30), while still providing validation that would be applicable on a time field. There is currently no way to enforce a colon on a time field in UX Builder using the current masking options available. The user either has to add one manually, or additional validation needs to be performed using underlying UX Services. Neither is ideal as it differs from existing behavior.

It is my understanding that the communications print server prints one document at a time. If for some reason the current print job is corrupted or slow performing a bottleneck is created for other released documents. We'd like to see an option to print up to x (configurable) documents concurrently.

I wanted to quickly submit this as a possible bug or future improvement. Please let me know if the below information is not clear enough for reproducing the issue. Today, we encountered an issue with negative priorities on queue items in a Production automation. We will be adjusting the automation probably to not use negative priorities anymore. I just wanted to be clear that this is not or at least soon will not be affecting us anymore, but it would be good to add this to the Blue Prism Dev backlog if it's not already there. Blue Prism versions tested: 6.10.1 & 7.3.1 -- Same behavior observed in both Description of the issue: Most people only use priorities of 0+, but there are times that you may want to increase the priority of a specific work queue item to be higher than the average queue item. The only way to do that above a priority of 0 is to go into the negative numbers (or redesign the automation so that the initial priority is something like 100 or 200 etc.). What we discovered is that you cannot use the Work Queues Internal Business Object's action "Set Priority" to set a priority of -1. The error you get is "No priority specified". This is the same error you get if you use this action without providing a number. However, you can supply any other (at least 32 bit) negative number such as -2 or -200, and it will set the Priority just fine. Along with this, you can use the action "Add To Queue" and provide any negative number INCLUDING -1. This is the only way I have found to be able to use negative one as the priority is if you set it when initially adding the item to the queue. Thoughts: I don't know what Blue Prism's opinion is on this. My suspicion is that negative numbers were not intended to be allowed. But if that were the case, I would think there'd be an input validation on Add To Queue and Set Priority to require that the number is at least 0, but neither of them have such a validation. So, my request is that these two be made to have the same functionality. Either make them both not support negative numbers, or make them both support all negative numbers including -1. The problem with the first option is that you could be breaking automations for customers that rely on negative numbers in some way. The second option is probably the better solution, and the only change required is to the Set Priority action so that it handles the priority in the same way that Add To Queue does, allowing for -1 to be a valid input. Steps to recreate: To recreate this issue, create a queue item using Add To Queue. There will be no issues at this point no matter what priority you use. 1, 0, -1, -2. All of these work. Next, in some way, get the Item ID of the item you just created. It will be in the output collection of Item IDs when adding to the queue. It could also be retrieved from the output of Get Next Item, etc. Next, using the Item ID of the pending item, use the action Set Priority and give it a Priority of -1. This will fail with the error "No priority specified". Next you could try -2. This should succeed. For BP personnel: Same content submitted in Ticket #299379

The output action/form in Blue Prism Desktop is limited in functionality. All output is single data item based and is displayed stacked where the Label sits above the value of the data item. We have use cases where we want to display a large list of data items (roughly 24 fields). Found that the display of these fields required a scroll bar on the right of the BP Desktop screen and the Label/values were aligned to the left of the screen. It would be useful to allow the use of collections in output actions, provided the number of columns is limited to the width of the output form. Expanding the output form width so that it fits more data to handle a table/collection would also help. Currently the output form can only expand height-wise, not width-wise.

As a process designer I would like to be able to compare two versions of a model and for the differences to be highlighted in Design Studio. This will help me identify and assess the impact of changes. The bpmn.io framework used by Design Studio supports this capability, but we currently need to export models to use it.

Currently during the import process about non information is available, like target groups or what are the items causing conflict. It would be great to have some type of preview window showing the contained items and structure similar to what is available in Releases tab. Also nice would be the creation date of the package being part of the release file. Currently the 'create' date shown in Releases tab is the date assigned by the local client, either date of creation when creating a new package or the date of import. This means when moving a release to another environment the creation date of the package there will be different to the creation date of the originating environment. It would make more sense to have creation / modify date static as part of the release and maybe add another column (eg release date) for when the package was last imported/exported.

In Blue Prism UI, opening tab: Releases, in the main window named Package Overview, several columns with information on existing/known releases and packages is shown in list view with columns: name, created, created by and last release. The provided information would be much more valuable if the columns could be sorted and maybe even filtered. I just imported a release file, not knowing if the target is an existing group, a new group (and what it's name) or if it maybe was done as adhoc package. Being able to sort columns would greatly increase the chance of finding the package.

Regarding EQM inbound email contents, our client found that when the email body has over 10k chars, those content length after 10k will be truncated. This is confirmed with development team on the limitation. Our client needs a search of Ref id in the email body text, so that the workflow logic will link the email in source to the work with same Ref id. In the case when email go back and forth, it will become a long email thread. This long email body text has been truncated and unable to return the Ref id for further processing. This limitation is impacting the business operation, client requests an enhancement on the EQM capture component and allow configuration.

When importing an object or release and this asset already exists in BP repository, the import process shows a screen to decide on how to resolve the conflict, with options like: overwrite, new name new ID, ... It would be helpful to have folder/group information, ie the path of this asset in the repository. There are numerous reasons why a conflict may occur and currently only the name of the object is shown. If I would also see the path (eg 'Objects\tmp\' 'Processes\My Private Sandbox\') this may help to decide on the resolution. Although I am not sure how this works with 'linked' assets. Those assets those names are shown in different location in the folder structure but all pointing to the same asset. I didn't check but is it possible to have even different names for those linked objects?! That would make the conflict resolution quite confusing anyways. (Why is there the distinction between 'associated products' versions when submitting ideas? It doesn't make sense to submit an idea to just BPE v6 anyways. And how should I know if this idea will be relevant for BPE v7 only but not for BPE v8?!)

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.

An enhancement request from the user to change sorting order of the attachments on the case. Current Behavior: On expanding the attachments list, the oldest items shows up first. Expected Behavior: User should be able to choose and select the sorting order, oldest or newest first.

The Chorus 'ROS' functionality currently requires that all Chorus users are given access to write and/or delete files from the template directory. PLRE considers this at minimum an operational risk, as there is no way to prevent users from deleting/altering the templates and/or adding further templates which are then available to other users. We would like the Chorus ROS process to remove the requirement for update access to the template folder so that all non-admin users can have only read access.

We have ~100 resources and it would be very helpful to be able to have filter on the current status of VCI in Schedule. eg to activate the filter to only see resources in status 'warning'. This is especially helpful since groups/folder as collapsed by default (which I think is an improvement over previous version). And there is no easy way to disable 'starting private resources when BP UI starts' for all workplaces. When activating this filter, all resources meeting this filter should be shown. If necessary, groups should be expanded to make resources visible.
