Allow the ability to amend Service Windows on Receive Locations
We have several receive locations which have an overnight window. When we come in first thing in the morning and find suspended messages related to those location, we need to disable the service window, re drop the files it has to pick up, wait until it has consumed the files then turn the window back on.
Our currently workflow involves logging onto our BizTalk server, opening the admin console, navigating the tree to the correct receive location, opening it, disable the window, wait for the files to play through, then enable it again.
We would love to remove the need…

Quick filter - textbox for searching in applications
Quick filter for searching in applications.
When you have many applications in your BizTalk environment you are forced to scroll down to the bottom of the page and use pagination in order to view next applications. I think it would be a great idea to have a textbox at the beginning of the page where you can type in parts of your application name or description to filter your list.In my case I currently have 5 pages to scroll thru, not very user friendly.

Update Custom Notification Channel DLL
It is currently possible to change the name of a custom notification channel when clicking edit. It would be handy to be able to update the DLL for that notification channel. If a new DLL is uploaded it could check whether it differs from the current DLL content saved in the database.
This way it is possible to update a channel without having to remove it so we don't lose all our alarm configurations.5 votesThis feature has come as part of the version 8.9.5 release. Sing up to our newsletter to be notified of upcoming releases

Schedule Disable & Enable back Receive Locations of BizTalk application.
We have a scenario where we need to schedule to Disable & Enable back Receive Locations of BizTalk application, and this has to be done After Hours every month during the monthly Server maintenance nights.
Currently we are doing this manually where we disable Receive Locations at 5pm and then Enable it back at 10pm.
So before the server maintenance window begins, we Disable the Receive locations. By doing this, the various LOB systems hold and queue up the events they need to push to BizTalk within their own systems until this service window. After the maintenance window is closed,…

To extract message content details along with the suspended instances detail in excel format.
Presently there is a feature where we can export the suspended instances detail in the excel sheet, but we cannot get the inner message body content in the excel sheet.
There are times when we have 500 plus suspended instances and it becomes difficult to extract the details one by one so as to verify from the user, It would be convenient if the message content details can also be extracted in the excel sheet simultaneously as it would save a lot of time from doing the copy-paste activity.6 votesHi,
BizTalk360 already holds the functionality to download the instance and the message content. 'Export to excel' option will only export the instance details however to download the instance and its message content use the 'Download' option. with this, u can download the message content in the server and you can also attach the same to an email.
Thanks ,

Allow "Is In Range" option for EventId filter in Advanced Event Viewer
This would allow us to get the logs of a specific application when all applications have a predefined range of EventIds.
