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…

Change default Cube Data type to "Double"
A couple of years ago, we were suggested by Board to always use Data type Double, instead of Single. However, the default data Type when creating a new Cube is Single. I would also assume Double is the most common Data Type used in Cubes. That makes it more relevant to show Double by default. Suggestion: Change the default…

Dynamic Decimals on report views
Hi team! We've recently had two customers and a partner reach out about the request to dynamically show or not show decimal places. Right now, it currently requires work arounds that involve layout adjustments or duplicated screens. We would like to request the ability to adjust the decimals we are viewing on a report…

Log recording when normalization settings are changed
At present, it is not possible to use log files to track changes in normalization settings. It would be desirable to be able to log changes to normalization settings.

Logging procedure changes
There are cases where we want to identify the user who deleted a procedure object and the time it was executed. It is desirable to have a function that can output such information to a log.

Log output for changes to the scheduler
At this time, changes to the scheduler are not tracked in log files. It would be better to improve it by recording it in a log file.

Horizontal Orientation for the Expander
Hi, it would be great, if there would be a option to set a horizontal orientation for the Expander object. You could use it to build a dynamic menu bar, where you could hide labels without leaving a gap between them.

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).

activate Layout for Panel Container
The Panel Container is great for grouping other Toolbox-items like Label, Button, Dataview and so on. The Expander Container is a good choice to store many items on limited space. Together they are very powerfull. Espacially on admin-screens and Dashboards. I miss the Option to hide a panel container inside a Expander…

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…

New Exit Procedure Step for exiting/stopping the complete procedure process (for nested procedures)
1. What is your idea? Introduce a new procedure step which exits/stops the complete procedure execution even if the procedure which uses this new exit step is a nested procedure (was executed inside another procedure). 2. What specific problem are you trying to find a solution to, or what new scenario would this idea…

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,…

Having the Ability to Drill Down When Using Vertical Block Alignment in the Data View

Selection status of a step in a Procedure without running it
Dear Community, I think it could be very helpful to have something to track what is the selection status until a step of a procedure. It should act like the breack point while debugging but whitout running the procedure because it's not always possible to do that.

Debugging training
Hi all, In many occasions new BOARD developers/consultants don't start a project from scratch, they start from an already built solution and they need to solve issues or to evolve it. From my point of view, the "debugging" is as important as the construction, so I ask for an specific training in the academy with the…

Board Public API: Include "maxItemNumber" as well
Currently the API only returns the number of items when using "/public/{dbName}/schema/Entities". Can this please be extended to include the "maxItemNumber" as well? Then we can track when the entities are full. Unfortunately, it often happens with our customers that the entity fills up and we don't notice. The frontend…

Rest API: Additional output/storage formats for REST API call (e.g. temporary cube)
The only output format (right now) for an REST API call is to save it to an CSV file. This CSV file can be used to load an temporary cube. A direct load (without saving the file to disk) into a cube / temporary cube would be a great enhancement.

Probably The Best Alternative to CSV Storage: Parquet Data
1. What is your idea? Board support a lot of datasources. Probably the most used are csv files. However, with ever increasing amounts of data, working with csv files becomes a pain. Parquet files can be an alternative. Head-to-head comparison CSV Parquet Row-based storage format. A hybrid of Row-based and column-based…

Execution of single procedure steps for testing purposes
For testing purposes it would be helpful if a single procedure step could be executed by for example right-click on the step. As a consequence it would not be necessary to either deactivate all the other steps or to create another procedure containing only the step which is supposed to be tested.

EXPORT EXCEL ENTITIES, CUBES, PROCEDURES, DATAREADERS LISTS
Hello, It would be very nice, if, from a screen of cubes, entities, DR or procedures, we could have a button for exporting properly in excel (choosing columns to be exported if possible ( just name, or name + code + date + size ….) Thanks for your attention😊

RENAME A PROCEDURE
When we change the name of a procedure, we need to find all the procedures that call the modified procedure in order to update the new name, If this is not done, the procedures will not execute correctly. Doing this work is very tedious We understand that this request has already been made, but that Board considers the…

SUBSCRIPTIONS
Hello, Would it be possible to access the menu "view all subsciption" before being in a menu, as it shows all subscriptions wherever they come from ? It would also be useful to have a link to open the source from this page. Thanks for your attention 😊

Save filter values in selection
We would like to have the ability to set a permanent filter value when a selection is made on a screen. This selection should remain even if the entity values are deleted. This is currently not the case. For example, if customer XYZ is currently filtered on the screen and the customer is deleted from the entity, the filter…

Administration: More management options for all users presentations
It would be good for us as administrators if we had more management options for all users' presentations. E.g. an overview page showing which presentations are available and with whom they were all shared, if necessary the possibility to change assignments here as well. As a current workaround, we register on behalf of the…

Disable the sort action on the DB Log
Hi Team, We faced this issue multiple times with many partners, where the database logs are being sorted (either by mistake or to check something). Group by logs could be useful, but the database logs sorting always adds to the confusion. thanks, Aniket

Possibility to schedule a task several time par day
Today the lowest level of recurrence for a scheduled task is the day, so it is quite hard and boring to schedule a task every hour, or every 15 minutes for ex. It would be great to have the possibility to schedule a task several time par day.

REST API call connection timeout
Currently REST API calls are using a "fixed" connection timeout of 100s. If connection to the endpoint is not established within this time limit, the call is ended. It would be great if the timeout could be extended/paramterized.
