Hi , Anybody can guide on what to do with the Upcoming Board Cloud IP Address ChangeRgds Khaleelah
Hello, For several weeks we have the problem, that the Board frontend stops working for some time (often 1 or 2 minutes), so it does not answer any questions from the client any more. When this happens, all users are blocked. They are not locked out, only the requests to the Board reports, running at the moment, seem to be…
Dear Team, I am currently working on Level 300. During the functional testing of the solution for Module 304, Question 3 Update P&L, I received an incorrect answer notification. However, I believe my response is accurate, as the result displayed on my screen matches the example screenshot provided. Am I doing something…
Hello, Is it possible to delete an entity member when using the entity editor. The documentation says CRUD operations are allowed once ATO is enabled, however i cannot see the option to delete. Thanks
Hi Team, Currently Board allows master data changes through Data readers, Data views and smart imports. We have a control on addition of new members into entities where we can either select or reject the entities. However, There is no specific control on relationship changes. An user with any license can update…
Hi, I am still consolidating my knowledge by going through the Level 300 Part 2 course again - can you please extend the instance by another 10 days please? Many thanks, David
Hello, In the LMA Application, there is a screen with Data Entry logs (13.xxx) : Cubes used in this screen are loaded through the DR DE - Values using this path, but there is no such file in it. Is there an other way to load this log ? Thanks
1. Abstract Each Board environment should foresee an appropriate backup policy for the existing Data Models, should it be a development, sandbox or production environment. Such backup policy must always be present and it should be developed on top of the standard backup policies implemented by the cloud team for disaster…
Hello, In B14, there is currently no way to interact with a data entry drop down list without using the mouse. The user must double click on the cell to display the drop down list, and then click once again to choose a member. In data entry forms that are comprised of a mix of direct data entry and suggested values, it is…
Hi, I would like to suggest a new feature on select based on cube on procedures. Quite often I need to select tuples based on cube even if the sum of the tuples over a period = 0. In order to do so we have to create a Temporary cube. Could we imagine an option just like keep mode to set select tuples even if the sum of…
When you are on a screen in a capsule and open the screen list (either via fly out or via the buttons) the screen-list appears in the collapsed form (if there are subfolders in the capsule). I would prefer if the screen list would open showing the screen you are on and therefore show this folder structure open. From my…
When creating data model packages for databases with numerous entities and cubes, the 'changes' list often includes a large number of position-only updates. For example, my last package had 102 entity changes, with 98 of them being solely positioning updates. This makes it difficult to identify meaningful changes. Please…
Hi, When hovering over tooltips in a layout, a confusing triangle shape appears. This shape can be misinterpreted as indicating additional information about a specific field (e.g., 'Measure Type' in the attached screenshot), which is not its function. Can the triangle shape be removed?
Hi everyone, I wanted to share a valuable piece of feedback from one of my clients regarding the user experience with selectors in Board 14.2 : Item Spacing: The items in dropdown selectors are currently too widely spaced, which limits the number of visible options. A more compact layout would improve readability and…
Hi Community Currently, procedure steps like Extract Cubes, Reload Cubes, and Clear Cube apply to all cubes or to manually selected ones. I suggest two improvements: Add the ability to perform these operations by cube group(or subgroups - improvement 2) (via dropdown selection) Introduce the concept of subgroups within…
In the current scenario, if we need to migrate objects from one source to another, we need to take a snapshot and compare the differences at Target to determine what all objects should be migrated. In projects where multiple users might be developing objects in parallel, this requires a lot of manual effort to identify…
Hello team, I expect to be considered enhancement of a tool to reduce the workload involved in verifying/testing after the version upgrade.
