Currently the print file copy is available in Communications however; the ability to apply a watermark is not available.     Currently in Encorr, you are able to print a ‘file copy’ of the document that was saved with a watermark of ‘File Copy’ on it.      Communications does not provide a mechanism to selectively print a watermarked 'file copy' of a letter as EnCorr does.  To address the shortcoming, the client duplicates the letter makes modifications within the body of the shareholder or dealer letter.  It is clumsy as there is no watermark capability & client would prefer the functionality be restored.  ...

The "Select" list option on Form are not displaying to the user as alphabetized or in numerological order. The form "Select" lists are displaying exactly how it is built on the back end. Hoping to get the list items moveable on the design side so the lists do not need to be completely rebuilt when needing to reorder the way the list displays to the user. The order would be able to be switch with just moving the list items.  Chorus BPM  ... View more

The idea is to develop the BP Alerts function, alerts in their current form only show historical events from BP about failed schedule launches, terminations. It could, for example, show in real time such events  - a suspended session and alert about it,  to have a quicker response  - it could also show information about the termination of a process that has not been resumed - once resumed, this could disappear from the alert plug-in (and only appear in the alert history) - it could also show the unavailable machines that are scheduled to be activated in the schedule in order to be able to react earlier - which would help with the non-termination of such a schedule - could detect infinite loops in the log - could report unplanned problems during the start of scheduled schedules, such as not starting all the machines that were scheduled to be started,  - and other similar It would be nice to be able to set these and other functions according to your own preferences - that is to have the option to customise such a plug-in. In my opinion, this would be a added value for the BP as well as for the consumer  ... View more

I would like to have a new action stage, to be shown in the stage choice panel on the left side in Studio. You can call it whatever you like, but I'd like the new stage to be definable by the developer. For the fun of it, we could call it a Tiny Template. The new 'Tiny Template' stage would contain a stage, or a block of stages that are regularly used by the developer. Choosing the new stage would imply that the block of stages will be dragged into the page the developer is currently working on, in the same manner as the single stages that we have today.  The new customizable 'Tiny Template' stage can be defined once by the developer and will remain accessible within BP Studio until its definition is changed by the developer. The 'Tiny Template' definition will be saved so it can be used again at any later time Studio is used. Why would this be practical? Lemme give y'all an example: When I'm testing new or modified parts of a process or object, stuff tends to crash. This is ok as it indicates where efforts for error handling are required. In order not to let any of these small crashes lead me back to to the Main Page, or wherever it bubbles up to, I usually add a temporary recover-resume-note block on the page. This will catch any errors and remain on the page I'm working on. When I move my work to the next page, I move or copy the block along with me to the net page. When all is done, I remove the blocks as not to permanently disturb the process flow. In the example above, I'd define my 'Tiny Template' as a recover-resume-note block and deploy it in every page I need it. Happy coding! ---------------- Paul Sweden ... View more

My suggestion is to add an AutomateC command to enable or disable a specified existing schedule. This capability would greatly expand the flexibility of the Blue Prism scheduler.  Currently we have processes that have to be scheduled to run once (or more) every day, mostly just to determine that they don't need to do anything on that day. These superfluous runs create noise in the control room, extra logs, and potentially cause other processes to not run because all licenses are in use at that moment. For example, we have a process that needs to run every 30 minutes but only on one or two specific days of the month. The only way to do this currently (using just the BP scheduler) is to schedule it to run every 30 minutes every day, and either add logic so the process can determine that it shouldn't do anything most of the time or manually disable it for most of the month and manually enable it on the days when it should run. With the proposed enable/disable AutomateC capability, we could maintain a file (Excel workbook?) containing a list of schedules. Each schedule in the file would have a business day or calendar day of the month and whether the schedule should be enabled or disabled on that date. A BP process would run early every morning and process this file. The BP process can determine the current business day and calendar day and enable/disable schedules accordingly. This would enable more efficient scheduling for processes that only run quarterly, monthly, bi-monthly, or on specific days (whether calendar days or business days). ... View more

We're running into an issue where Hub is failing to handshake with our SQL instance due to a discrepancy in the expected type of encryption. We are able to successfully connect to the SQL instance from the Application Server using connection string arguments. Please allow for the same functionality when asking for information to connect to SQL where required in the installation of other components as well. Edit: This problem is currently specific to Hub 4.7. We are installing it alongside a 7.2.0 x64 environment. ... View more

Prior to deploying a new version of a changed process or object, we are obliged to go over the changes with a colleague. To do so, we use the Studio Compare functionality. This Compare highlights att changes in green, yellow or red for new, changed and deleted functionality. You use the hop to next or hop to previous buttons to navigate.  When there are a lot of changes on one particular page, they are all highlighted in yellow. Again, the hop to next or previous buttons are used to show what was changed to my colleague.  Unfortunately, the current stage is not indicated in any way and the screen just shows the yellow stages that were changed. This makes it quite hard to explain where we are. This is what it looks today: Wouldn't it be nice if the current stage would be marked in some manner? Something as simple as this perhaps: Happy coding! --------------- Paul Sweden ... View more

Source /Image quick preview functionality  Build  a Quick Source/image preview without having to open the source/image.  Functionality would allow user to  hover over the source and will display a preview of the image (first page , or all pages). Image retrieval can be leverage for this functionality. This will  be helpful when work item has multiple sources/images attached to a work item and the user need to focus on one source . Functionality can be extended to instances where a source needs to be selected during fax out  , email out  functions that are currently available in Chorus.   Quick preview will ensure correct image is selected and will reduce number of errors and potential privacy breaches.  Attached  screenshots for current faxout card and processor workspace.

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. ...

Right now, When adding DLLs to an object, you can either set your relative path to the dll and it will look for the file in the Blue Prism install folder, or you can specify a full path to a file.  I would find it useful to be able to set a path in the database as a second place for Blue Prism to find these dlls and not require to place dlls directly into Blue Prism install directory. This will help keeping blue Prism install directory clean and easy to manage over time. Also it will not require enterprise environments to repackage and update a new version of Blue Prism to be sent out for every dll to be added for object usage.. ... View more

Problem: Per the Blue Prism documentation, Auto Archiving "causes a registered, running resource to check periodically throughout the day for any session logs that ended before a specified date/time and archive/delete them if such are found". My team has found that when very large sessions logs are being archived, it taxes our database and negatively impacts the performance of our automated sessions actively trying to run. The stress on the database can be so large that it seizes our servers and even takes down the entire environment. As a workaround, we identify large session logs and manually archive them before the auto archiving process gets to them. This is tedious and not ideal. Solution Idea: Alternatively, it would be great if Blue Prism added a way to configure Auto Archiving so it only runs during specified hours instead of checking "periodically throughout the day". If this were an option, we would set our archiving to happen outside of business hours so our database would not get so stressed. ... View more

Many VBOs appear to be unnecessarily set to a run mode of "exclusive". If any of these VBOs are used in a process or object that is exposed as an API, we will be limited to a single instance at any given time on that resource. In order for us to advance our callable process/object capabilities, we need the flexibility to run multiple instances on a single machine.  The following is a list of VBOs that have an "Exclusive" run mode: Email - POP3/SMTP MS Excel VBO MS Excel VBO - Extended MS Outlook Email VBO MS Outlook Email VBO 6.10.4 MS Word VBO System - Active Directory Utility - Encryption Utility - HTTP Utility - JSON Utility - Numeric Operations Utility - Network Utility - Screen Capture Webservices - OAuth2.0 Webservices - REST I think the MS VBOs could at least be reduced to "Foreground" run mode(as they might temporarily require exclusive use of those applications), but all of the others should be changed to "Background" as there is no discernable reason that multiple instances couldn't be running at the same time. If we need to make them more exclusive, that should be our choice in our local environments, but there's no need to be so restrictive as a platform default setting. ... View more

It would be great if there was a Blue Prism branded stencil for Visio in order to create business documentation like infrastructure diagrams. This could be helpful in identifying specific elements. That way we also have a very uniform type of documentation across customers.  This would create some sort of good practice and make it easier to read as everyone would be accustomed to them. ...
