Re: Error when copying (recycling) datareaders
Thank you Paul for sharing with us your experience.
We will consider this when designing the HTML editor of the datareader, if we can do something to avoid it we certainly will do it.
Not 100% sure that it can be avoided because it's very difficult to prevent,
thanks!

Re: Tradeoffs with Parallel Execution screen property enabled?
Hello Bob,
The parallel execution is not only a matter of performance, but it changes the user's behavior on the screen.
Sometimes you do not want to let the user input data or change selection until all the information on the screen is available. In this case you go with normal execution in series.
Parallel execution is helpful when you use objects like folders that hide part of the layouts that won't be visible anyway until you go and click on the tab..

Re: How to build an efficient dataflow to transform YTD values in Monthly values ?
Hello Etienne,
To go from YCV to Monthly value in HBMP you need to subtract the YCV cube to itself with a -1 offset.
You will get an exception on the first period of the year in which you will need to put the value of the YCV cube.
Please find attached a small example.
To run YCV in HBMP it's more tricky if you also need that you might create an independent entity MonthNUmber with members from 1 to 12 and map the months to this entity,
So that January will go in all the members from 1 to 12 february in all the members from 2 to 12 until december on 12.
Then aggregate by month and remap 1 to 12 one by one to the months and you will get the YCV in 5 or 6 steps.
I didn't prepare an example for this but if you need i can prepare it

Re: Multiple different selections
You can enter the layout select and change th selection on the element you need.
If you want to use this without entering the layout that's not possible at the moment, except the apply selection to block option.
An idea that you might investigate si to put the dataviews on three different panels with ato enabled and put a pager on the three panels on Entity_A
Re: Profile update for data entry doesn't get refreshed
Hello,
Maybe the problem is not in the profile itself, but in the grid you use for dataentry.
Please check that the lock dataentry is allowing the user to enter data and that the user is inputting data at leaf level or with split and splat.
Otherwise try creating a new dataview from scratch with no dataentry locks.
Re: Creating a dataview (help) ?
Did you try the vertically aligned dataview?
I think it will do the trick, it puts the blocs as rows instead of columns, go in the axis configuration and set "verically" in the align option

Re: Log Management Application : any update ?
Hello Etienne,
Nice to listen to the final question.
The LMA application is not part of the toolkit itself, but we mantain it with the new logs as soon as they are ready.
You may assume that the LMA will be updated with the new logs as soon as they will come out.
Re: Unable to apply analytical function
Hi,
In BOARD, the use of infocubes structured only by the time dimension, is not recommended. Can you try adding another entity to the cube definition?
analytical functions should work as expected.
Let me know if this helped.

Re: how to make bar chart columns with different width?
Hello,
Currently this function is not available, you might open a new idea in Ideas if you think that this might be an improvement for the product.

Re: How can I change all screens with one selector in my master screen?
Hello Phil,
This solution can be applied only for a limited number of objects.
Obviously each layout is a query, and if you perform all the possible queries each time you open a screen your performance will be poor.
In addition to that, yes this solution will make the common selection easy to be achieved, but it will make nearly impossible to apply automatically different selects on different objects.
Anyway the benefits of transition and folder that you listed are correct, just keep in mind the negative effects on performance .
