Hi Support Team, For Controllers - Who need to handle multiple processes in production environment, and suppose there are around 300 to 400 environment variables and need to update environment variables - It takes more time to find environment variables with dropping down scroll bar. Instead of this, Blue Prism should provide the search or find box, by that way user can find environment variables and change value. It will save time for controllers.

There should be option to save a previous version of a process/ object from the version history. Right now we can just the view the previous saved instance by right clicking in the version history. but we are unable to edit or save it as a new process

Note from Michael Lowe @ BP: This I not really a problem with wait stages as Blue Prism naturally iterates through the DOM repeatedly looking for the element (for the allotted period of time). However with reads, writes and navigates it will only attempt it once (throwing the classic element not found error if the element doesn’t exist). Possibly having these stages try a couple of times automatically would resolve this issue, but that’s not the way the product works right now. I will raise it as a product suggestion which will get considered for a future development. This was in response to our continued problems with Invocation errors on Edge/V6.9

Currently when enabling Active Directory authentication for Blue Prism, it forces SSO. Please add option to switch from SSO to manual login (username & password prompt) with an AD account. For example in our DEV environment, we use robot accounts (which has the required system access rights what are used in the process) that are used to login to development resource machines to do the development on. We are doing this to simulate how they are ran in production environment. These robot accounts have not been added to Blue Prism user roles or given access rights to log in to Blue Prism. This in turn means that we can't launch in a normal way, when the SSO is forced on. This will give an error that user is not authorized to connect to the Blue Prism server. We have circumvented this by adding a separate batch script that prompts username & password (which has access rights to Blue Prism) to launch automate.exe with -> sends those credentials to Blue Prism server and allows login.

In the latest version of Blue Prism, the standard VBO will no longer be included with the installer, but will be downloaded by each user from the DX. A search for "Blue Prism Enterprise - Core" now shows 26 VBOs. Downloading them one by one is complicated, and there is a high possibility of errors such as missing downloads. Please change the DX specifications so that downloading and bookmarking can be done for all Core VBOs at once.

An enterprise customer (Chorus/ Bridge/ Document Automation) uses the capture process to ingest images that originate in emails. Because the sources are sent as a packet that should be worked as a single work-item in Chorus, they would like to send them as one transaction to Document Automation. Our request is to facilitate transitioning this customer to be able to submit multiple sources into a single DA batch.

Blue Prism's built-in version control system for Processes and objects is a great feature to allow comparison of code versions and updates. One aspect of it that's not great, however, is rollback. While it's possible to rollback a process or object to a previous version by opening the old version in comparison view, exporting it and then re-importing it, it's not easy to find and it's not intuitive. I'd like to see a straightforward mechanism for version rollback. It could perhaps be a simple right-click option when you have a process or object version selected in the history view called 'Make active version' or something similar. An indicator could then be added to the history view to enable easy identification of which version is currently exposed to the control room.

Time functions are a mess. Today() = local date (but it is not documented as so) LocalTime() = local time ! UTCTime() = UTC time ! Now() = UTC DateTime Where are UTCToday() and LocalNow() ? Functions to convert between local and UTC directly in the calculator would be awesome too.

When spying web applications, it is quite useful to have access to the application navigator. Unfortunately, this feature is not available when spying on an application that runs on google chrome. I see now that several companies are moving away from explorer as their standard browser, which means that we have to re-spy a lot of existing objects. This would be much simpler if we had the application navigator available.

Hi, just seen on BPW21 a demo from ABBYY where Timeline PI can integrate with Capture to populate the process flow from Timeline on to Capture. I understand this is limited to ABBYY and no plans to add other process mining platforms, but this looked really great and Blue Prism will be missing a trick to limit this to only customers with Timeline. Can you consider adding other process mining tools, like Celonis which my company use.

Currently Blue Prism can only be deployed on an MS SQL Server instances, and the recommended version is Enterprise which comes at quite a high price tag, making it expensive for smaller deployments, and/or smaller companies wanting to use Blue Prism. As the times are changing and a lot of non-enterprise companies are looking to streamline their operations and automate their processes, a high deployment cost (and maintenance) for infrastructure is often viewed as a blocker. This being said... can you please add support for PostgreSQL as well as MySQL databases for the Blue Prism DB Server?

I would like to be able to change the order of the fields in a collection just like you can in aa Multi Calc stage. Currently when you have a collection and you add a field to it it will always be added as the last column. Even is you add a field in between existing fields, when you close and open the collection again the new field is added at the bottom. With big collections used for reporting it would be a lot easier to have the ability to change the order without having to rebuild the collection

There is currently only a dashboard tile that provides real-time information on license usage. It would be really useful to be able to track license usage over time to identify the busiest periods and to help with projections and future planning. Even access the stored procedure in the Blue Prism database that is used by the dashboard tile would be sufficient as it could be used in a tool such as Power BI. A better option would be a built in report that could provide a graph to indicate what times and what resources have the highest resource usage.

Hi Team, I would like to suggest an Idea to add a feature Export Data (button/link) on top of Control room to extract data such as Process Name, Resource, User, Status, Start Time, End Time into an CSV or Excel based on available filters (All, Last 31 days or Last 7 days) or add new filter to select date range From Date and To Date. It is very useful to see the daily report based on runs / status and it would be very helpful for teams to prepare a customized dashboard or to understand the trends as per their requirement. (Please see attached representation on how it should look, designed for better understanding), It would like to hear from you and it will be very helpful if implemented asap, thanks in advance. Regards, Dinesh M

Just like it is possible with process logs, it would be great to see an option to added to archive off work queue items. It could be as simple as a tickbox within log archiving to include queue items or (even better) as an entire separate archiving subrouitne, so it can run on separate schedule.

Consider following improvements to the Chrome Extension: 1. Detect frameworks used by the page being spied. Adjust spying in accordance with the Framework 2. pull images from CSS and add them as a spying attributes. Other browsers will benefit from above as well.

The submission history (German "Verlauf") is the first place an Interact user can get information on the status of their submissions, while they are either waiting to be worked or after they are worked. At the moment, it does not provide an sufficient amount of information. Please consider the following improvements: - The status column seems to be tailored at a review usecase, but is not usable to provide information about the end status of the submission. Please provide more alternatives (e.g. Completed, Completed with Errors, Failed etc.) or make it freely editable after all. - The key field column can only contain the content of a single field at the moment. Please allow to combine multiple fields into it by the creation of a formatting rule. - Not all fields are helpful in all cases and certain fields are displayed way too small, please make the table more customizable, so this can be adjusted.
