Introduce a "Mini Map" View in Procedures
Problem : When working on long and complex procedures in Board, it's easy to get lost navigating between multiple steps, loops, and conditional blocks. The current linear view makes it hard to maintain an overall understanding of the structure, especially for debugging or reviewing purposes. Suggested Feature: Add a Mini…

Save selection to cube
Hi all, I'm investigating possibilities to save arbitrary selections (see post linked below) but I find that even if I can manage to save them to a text cube, it is impossible to "restore" them when needed in the context of a maintenance interface. However, it is possible in the context of a procedure, to save the current…

"Preview Mode" in Dataflows
Hello Community Problem: Currently, there is no way to preview the output of a Dataflow without executing it entirely. This leads to several issues: Risk of overwriting existing data if the logic is incorrect Long execution times, especially without perimeter filters Difficulty testing or validating transformations safely…

Enable Data Entry Validation Rules Based on Other Dataview Blocks
Hello Community, Currently, data entry validation rules in Board are limited to conditions within the same data entry block. This limits our ability to implement advanced validation scenarios that depend on other layout blocks. I propose adding the capability to define validation rules that reference values from other…

The comment would be visible…

Display Cube Dimensions in Dynamic Selection
Hello Board Team, I’d like to suggest a UX improvement for screens that use dynamic selections based on a cube. 👉 Current limitation: When using a dynamic selection linked to a cube, it’s currently not possible to see which dimensions (entities) are used in that cube from the screen configuration. This makes it harder to…

Simplify Selection of Descendants in Unbalanced Hierarchies
Currently, when working with unbalanced hierarchies in procedures, there is no simple way to select descendants of a parent element in a dynamic way. This limitation creates a lot of extra work during integration and makes maintenance difficult, as developers have to rely on complex and fragile workarounds. A simple and…

Automated Email Notifications for Broadcasting Module
Automation is really important these days because it saves time and helps teams work better. That’s why I think it’s sad that customers using the Broadcasting Module in Board can’t get automatic email notifications through API users, Scheduled Jobs, or Batch processes. It would be great to have email alerts sent…

Enhancing Generic Entities in Time Range Section
Currently, in the Time Range section of Board, we have the ability to use generic entities to address specific time-related business needs. Some common examples include: YTD (Year-to-Date) Months YTG (Year-to-Go) Months Monthly references such as JAN, FEB, MAR, etc. These generic entities are very useful for standard…

Standard colour of label value should have the proper contrast
When creating charts Board automatically takes colours for the different series (which is good, especially as you can also manually change them). However, the values shown from the labels should be coloured in the way that it is visible…in the screenshot below the values in the blue series are not visible - if you hoover…

Exclude option on selectors
A little improvement to the selector object would be to always have the exclude button available when the object is on the screen. At the moment, it is only possible to either select (if the including option is enabled) or exclude (if the excluding option is enabled) I would like to decide on the spot if I want to select…

💡 Feature Idea: Enable Tooltip Compatibility with 'Detail By'
Hello Community Currently, when using the tooltip feature together with the 'Detail by' option, the tooltip only appears on the total row, not on the individual detailed rows. 👉 Interestingly, when the entity is placed by columns, the tooltip works as expected and displays correctly for each column value. It would be great…

Double Click to Enter Data Entry Drop Down List
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…

Select Entity Based on Cube Option
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…

improve Screen list behaviour
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…

Data Model Package: filter out entity & cube position switch
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…

Board 14 - Confusing design tooltip border in layout
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?

UX Improvement Ideas for Selectors
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…
