Expand datareader edit window in Board 14
The edit window for datareader in Board 14 is way too narrow. Currently it is nearly impossible to fully identify cubes, SQL table names or column names on a regular screen. The edit window for datareader should be just as wide as the pop up which opens when creating a new datareader:

Quick preview of the data in a cube
To get a preview of the data in a cube we have to create a screen containing an appropriate dataview. In order to get a really quick preview of the data in a cube it would be helpful to have the option of saving one or more views of the cube data as part of the analysis of a cube (screenshot below). It should be possible…

Use Cube groups for Cube Visibility settings
Hi, Cube visibility is a great feature that we are starting to implement with customers. However, the setup of every single cube is a very time-consuming and maintenance-heavy operation especially in larger databases with hundreds of cubes. One tool that would greatly help in that area would be the possibility to set up…

🧑🤝🧑Impersonate a user features
The idea is for account with developer licence and necessary access to a server to be able to Impersonate any user from his account directly. You select the user you want to impersonate from a drop down list then everything you view - his selects, read & write data, folder access etc.. - are like the member itself on your…

Public list of known bugs available for customers & partners
It would be useful have available in the manual or somewhere in support site a list of known bugs / problems / unwanted behaviours and a plan for fixing. This will save a lot of time and money! Sometime happen that some function is not working properly. I've recently spent more than 1 day + half day of ext consultant to…

Standard "integrated" copy function for e.g., Versions, Scenarios etc.
Hi all, it would be great to have a integrated copy function. Use Case: During a planning cycle we want to copy a Version 1 into a Version 2 (Entity in a Cube). Therefore, we have to create a procedure, define temporary cubes without the entity Version, add for nearly each cube a step with temporary cube not dimensioned…

Time Function "End of Period Value"
There's been a forum post or two about extracting period (week/month/year) end values for inventory similar purposes in the community, and I've just come across the issue again in a current development...and I just had the idea of what not add a time function for this? Currently if we have data recorded by day (or month)…

B14 - Less clicks, less blocking popups
Board 14 requires in some parts too many clicks which slows down the process working with e.g. the data model. An example - Adding an entity: B12: +Entity (1st click), Save Changes (2nd click), Next Entity … B14: + (1st click), Entity (2nd click), Create (3rd click), Wait approx. 3,5s for Popup to disappear, Close (4th…

Description field for Cubes and Entities
In the datamodel, there should be a field "description" for each cube and entity. This would help documenting the purpose of each cube and entity. This would help the maintenance and the transfer of knowledge. for any developer, the good practice is to write comments in the code. This should be the same for Board:…

Easier management of RULES
Often we need to delegate the management of the RULES to some User. In order to make it easier, it could be helpful to have a way to access and edit the RULES w/o accessing to the related DB area. Just for example, this can be solved using a standard Board Report (see below) where the RULE can be visualized and/or defined,…

Show Message - Yes/No Option
Hi there! I think it would be really useful to be able to change the text in the Yes/No option. It can be Yes/No by default, but maybe you can add a way to customise it. An example would be this: It would also be great to change the colour of the button (not always blue).

Temporary Cube in use y/n
Hi team, It would be a great advantage if the information as to whether a temporary cube is used in a procedure or not were directly available in the definition window. During the development phase, a number of temporary cubes are created and only some of these are still needed at the time of deployment. If the above…

Visible cube content
It would be great if we can check cube content in a tabular format, using a standard built-in function. Now we have to go through all the steps: 1) create a screen, 2) drag a dataview component, 3) setup the layout, just to check the cube content.

Binary Cube
Hello, there are many situation where a cube is used to "flag" a certain on/off condition (like SBO, dynamic select, matrix cubes, etc). In most cases people are using integer cubes for this (in B10 a integer cube was 2byte per cell, in b12 it is 8byte per cell). From application point of view one bit (so true or false) is…

Transferring data directly from one database to another
Situation: Assume that planning takes place in different databases for various reasons. Now the results of the planning are to be merged into one database. One possibility is to extract the data from the planning databases into a CSV and read it back into the reporting database. Request: It would be nice to have a function…

MIN, MAX and Last Value in summary settings
When in a layout it would be great to have an option in the drop down for Last Value, Min and Max when looking at sub-totals. When we look at a rolling balance of inventory or finances, sometimes seeing the flow by week and then into month it would make sense to see the last value. Currently we can show total, average or…

Raise the limit of Custom Time Entities on Time Range
Main Idea: Today, the number of Custom Time Entities is limited to 4. My idea would be to raise this limit number to at least 10. It would be great to have no limit, if possible. The last project I worked on lasted 40 days. If I had a free custom time entity, I could have saved around 3 to 4 days of work, which is a…

Impact Analysis - Data Lifecycle
If incorrect or no data is displayed in an existing report, a developer must find the cause. This can be very time-consuming, especially if the database is very large and or was developed by other colleagues. The aim of this feature is to support the developer in exactly this search. A first starting point is the impact…

PDF Export - Suppress blank pages
Issue: When exporting reports using the Export PDF feature, subscription, or broadcasting, there are blank pages that the customer doesn't want. Proposed Solution: Add an option in the export PDF setup to automatically suppress blank pages - like the "Preview page" and "Select" ones. In one of our cases, for example, this…

Adding entity variables to pdf / printable export
Hey guys, I have customers that are exporting a lot of reports for their customer as well. So it would be good to write down the selected entities inside the name of the pdf file, so they dont have to do it all the time for themselves. Greetings Julian
