1. Abstract It's quite typical to incorporate a workflow for monitoring and managing various activities into Board applications.

Once we define a screen mask, we need to associate screens with the mask. This exercise is time-consuming and does not work in the first go on many occasions, forcing users to redo the whole thing again. When a lot of screens are associated with a single Mask, the performance to associate and disassociate degrades. It…
Is there a method to manage communications to users through the sys admin section in Board? For example, we want to send a "planned outage" email to all users whenever we apply a patch or perform maintenance. A setting in the sys admin section would make it easy to send a mass email communication using the user's email…
Hello everybody, we are trying to create Maps in Board 12.5 to show sales in countries where we are active. I tried to do it like described in the manual, but it is not yet working correctly. What do we have already - created a .json file with the six regions which we want to see - Marker Entity exists - Latitude and…
The unbalanced hierarchy is a strong function. Unfortunately, it is only possible to aggregate using a single tree. Hierarchy nodes Description Root Node A node that is not assigned under any node and has no parent node (predecessor). Node A node that has successors, which means all nodes except for leaves. Leaf A node…
Hello. Currently, I am performing maintenance operations while having clients use capsules created with Board. I would like to take data backups as part of my regular work. As I understand it, the way to take backups in Board is to create a snapshot of the data model by making a copy of the files in a backup directory from…
Hello, with b14 a change was introduced, that the selection is not reseted to screen default, when switching from User View to Dev mode. Screen design. Makers and end users can quickly switch between Design and Play mode and can do so with a Selection continuously applied rather than being reset. Enjoy faster development…
Hello, I'm trying to get the returning value of %COMPUTERNAME% variable in a data flow. I tried to the following solution : %COMPUTERNAME% and "%COMPUTERNAME%" in the target section and in an algorithm @COMPUTERNAME and "@COMPUTERNAME" in the target section and in an algorithm Using the ETL in a datareader with :…
1. What is your idea? Currently there is the possibility to have selections for all objects on the screen. In addition, only directly in the Layout can be done a selection for this one object. The Idea is, to give the end user of a screen the possibility to do different selections to different objects on the screen using…
The additional user credentials are not logging in. Please advise, I can not complete the functional testing.
Hello! I think it would be very useful to have triggers also on the homepage of the capsules. The client would like to modify the capsule navigation and the information available on the home screen depending on the type of user that enters the screen (relationship that we have stored in a cube). As we do not have the…
In Board 12 & 14, the Text File Data Reader has a limitation in how it handles .cfg files when a pattern filter is used in the "Connection" tab. This impacts the automatic mapping of fields and the correct configuration of the file settings, such as delimiters, headers, and other parameters stored in the .cfg file. Issue…
The idea is simple: Allow the use of Temporary Cubes on Smart Import objects as we do for Data Readers. It should be possible to type the Temporary Cube name and load data into it. The Temporary Cube should be configured in the Trigger Procedure launched after a Data entry action. Today, for the Smart Import object, we…
Hello, it would be helpful if we could display a value in the “show message”-procedure step as part of the message and ideally also change it. Example: Planned values from the previous year are to be transferred to the current year, taking into account an increase factor. As part of the procedure, the user would be…
Hi, I wish to have the split&splat functionality broadened, so it is not only able to split values according to the existing proportions, but have the ability to repeat the value, or to spread it evenly onto all leaf elements that are open for data entry. It would be excellent if developers could set what kind of…
Sometimes you'd want a certain block displayed as a single column an others displayed per element in the entities by column. This could for example be a budget for the year and than the actuals by month. The way we have always achieved this is kind of an awkward work-around. For the block that should be a single column we…
Hi all, currently we have no way to monitor performance of the layouts executed in a flexgrid object, which is key to understand performance issues and the use of the new object by end users. Idea : add a new log to track the following info on flexgrid layouts executions : dimensions used in rows number and nature of…
