Re: Installing Board client in Citrix
Dear Ahmed Lattali,
thanks for your request.
You can just use the setup.exe to install the BOARD Client on Citrix Application farm.
It´s recommended to install the Standard Edition of the client, because using the AutoUpdate Version means that for each User the client is installed a second time in his appdata folder.
Hope it helps

Re: Using date rolap cube with selector on Time Entity
Dear Mariusz Toporowski,
thanks for your request.
Selectors just working for BOARD entities, not for Cubes.
In your case, when you insert a selector for ETB, and select something from that, you will see, that only the choosen slice of your Cube will be shown.
Hope it helps.

Re: excel source file
Dear PIETRO DI CINO,
it´s exactly the same as using ODBC for MS SQL or each other database system.
For excel you have to do the following special configurations
1. you have to define "Names" for your EXCEL Sheets, this will be later the table names in the odbc
2. the excel has to be placed on the server. (By the way it isn´t working when the file is opened by anybody in EXCEL Client during the load with board)
3. you have to install the odbc driver on the machine where the board engine is running. The ODBC itself can be downloaded from MS for free: Download Microsoft Access Database Engine 2016 Redistributable from Official Microsoft Download Center )
Hope it helps

Re: Select @user onLoad for a pager?
Dear Bob Gill,
I think the only way for you will be inserting custom selection script into your database Security profiles which looks like:
Select Entity = @User
Only thing you have to check is that the Usernames in the entity are the same like the login Accounts.
Hope it helps.

Re: user picture
Dear Fethi Zerara,
thanks for your request.
Starting from BOARD 10.3 you are able to insert Pictures for the Users in HTML5 Client. This can be used e.g. for the Chat.
If you want to use in Screens you have the following opportunity.
You insert User Dimension (Entity) inside your Database and create a BLOB Cube on this where you can insert the pictures.
The User Dimension can be loaded through DataReader or filled manually.
Hope it helps.
