Dear Board Team, Unfortunately, due to an unplanned absence, I was unable to complete Level 200 Developer Path. I would like to ask whether it is possible to either extend the training environment or have it reset so I can continue. Thank you in advance for your support. Best regards, Carolin Rudolph
Board allow to limit drill down entities list in a single data view. It would be nice to have the capability to save such settings (like happen for selection bookmarks) to be used in other data views linked to same database / cubes
In the first question of the function test, I am required to push the button to update P&L, but there isn't an "Update P&L" button on that screen to be selected. I have also gone through the instructions again, and there are to steps where we need to set up the button. As a result of this, I'm unable to get past the first…
The data view columns width is set 120 as default. It would be nice to be able to change the default width for a dataview or even a full capsule. Bests Regards
Hi BOARD Team, I created a simple procedure to calculate month-on-month variance. But I cannot see any output. If I use a + b, I can see the result, which calculated correctly. But if I use a - b, there is no result returned. Could you please help me to troubleshoot? Thanks
I have a dataview with total lines but besides "normal" data I have a column with a algorithm block showing percentage values in a tooltip (as information for the user, so that he know which maximum percantage value is allowed to be entered) - for this percentage values in the tooltip I dont want to see summed up totals,…
Hi Team, I am reading the Best Practice Screen, which suggests that version / scenario can be set as Dense to improve speed. Just for the learning purpose (not means I will change it), we should review the folloing Sparsity? Thanks
While this seems like a great procedure in the module, for our org, curious how easy it would be for the % uplift to be dynamic for cases like this. My question is, instead of a procedure that will increase sales budget by 5%, is it possible to create a procedure where it will take a % uplift input by a user, and increase…
Is possible insert in a dataview different hint for each column header?
Level 200, Module 203 Section 14: L2 Demo Data Model Configure Data View Unit Hello, i'm having trouble selecting fields in data view configuration. this is the training screenshot mine is different, i can only see "time entities"
Hi, I have another flex grid question. I have created an algorithm in a flex grid (PIVOT mode) when adding an entity to columns it doesn't do the calculation anymore. Any idea why that is? second question: How can I show a grand total in the PIVOT mode? Thanks, Maik
Hi there! It would be really useful to be able to reorder cube versions by dragging and dropping them. Right now, if you create a new version that, for performance or logical reasons, should be placed in position 2, but you already have 6 versions, you must delete all of them and rebuild them in the right order. It would…
Use case: When configuring fields in a data reader, it's not uncommon to forget a field (e.g., Customer Description in Screenshot 1 below), or the data structure may evolve, introducing new fields or changes in hierarchy over time. Currently, if a field needs to be added or repositioned, users must clear all existing…
It's great that you can add a screen to a presentation multiple times and select a different tab of the container object each time. However, the printout does not take this tab selection into account, but always prints only the first tab if the print area contains objects other than just the tab container object. It would…

Encryption of data sent or received from Board via SFTP / Azure Storage in flat files
This has now occurred for two clients in the past few months, so I thought of posting this idea for consideration. In both cases, the clients moved from one ERP system to another; and updated the GL Codes or Item Master codes - and the expectation is that Board will use the new codes and historical data in Board is not…
When exporting a data view with multiple rows that require scrolling, all rows should be included automatically in the PDF export. Currently, the workaround requires selecting the data view as a separate print area, which creates a page break between areas in the PDF.
