Pinned ideas

PINNED Filter UI enables having OR between filters (not just AND)
Users want to filter cases for client1 OR client2. They can't without creating a custom filter with javascript -- which they don't like at all
PINNED SQL statements in Dashboard Widgets
I think using SQL statements in widgets would be great to leverage the entire potential of the data uploaded to IBM Process Mining. Lots of important and helpful information cannot be displayed today as it's only SQL-like. I don't think that using...

Improvement of command 'Create from Data Table'

Currently, command Create from Data Table does not save Datatable columns with their format ( number as number, date as date ) but as the excel where it is saved is formatted. A switch option to keep format of Data table would be very beneficial. ...

Would like to have a multi-thread upload for large documents across filenet APIs using GRAPH QL.

Our business users would benefit from it because they sometimes have large documents to upload.

Create a queue to allow multiple files uploads, optimizing the user's time.

IBM Process Mining should allow the upload of several CSV's at the same time (even if they are not uploaded simultaneously, the option to select at once all the files we want to upload would optimize the time of the analyst responsible for this ta...

The wTMId cookie is not adequate for client IP affinity routing to Datacap Web Services Server, as the initial request does not contain the wTMId cookie because one has not been assigned yet. Provide a cookie mechanism that will handle all cases including when a wTMId has not been assigned to the initial logon request.

It is impossible to correctly do a load balancing scheme for wTM if not under a specific architecture or configuration. When a user uses IBM Content Navigator with the Datacap Navigator plugin, when it logs onto the repository, the Datacap Session...

Exception Handling for the Scripts

My idea is to have something close to what we have in Blueprism today, a block. A block is a rectangular region that groups together all the stages that fall completely within it. A block can contain its own Recover Stage, which will handle except...

DATACAP - Suggestions in ICN search

It would be really cool that we can filter the job monitor by the "task start" column using a variable for the current day, instead of type the date.
