Workbox blog

We have now reached the testing phase of the 1.4 release, so you can expect it to be ready for download within 2 weeks.

Below you can find brief information about the changes; more details will follow in the next posts.

As I have mentioned before, you can expect in the new release:

• Activities for launching Workbox workflow action and workflow instance as well as for terminating workflow. You can use them on any Workbox workflow within the web application.
• Multiple self timers - multiple self timers give you possibility to launch different actions depending on different conditions.
• Enhanced and corrected import and export - we have added matching for most of the lookup objects and domain migration. We have also improved the matching mechanism and prepared it for possibility to export workflows with entire site definition, which will be available in the next release
• Error reporting - if you encounter an error within Workbox, you will be able to report it directly to us from the designer. Reports will be able to send out your workflow definition and details about your system, so I will be much easier for us to debug it and send you a solution. Reporting will be possible both from the error window as well as on demand.
• Improved history - we have added a workflow summary (which will be extended in next releases) and information about action status - if all activities were without problems - action is green, if at least one alert occurred - action is yellow, if at least one error occurred - action is red. This helps to see at glance if all activities finished properly.
