Step call procedure: deactivate checkboxes to copy current selections (back) by default
Minor idea: when creating a new procedure step "call procedure" the two checkboxes to copy current select / copy back current select are active by default. I have often seen both checkboxes activated in applications and quite often it turned out they have no purpose - the developer simply did not think whether it´s…

Interactive Select Option
SCENARIO: We have a procedure to navigate from the home screen to a planning screen. Before the "go to screen" step, there are several selections that are required to ensure the screen opens with the desired information / planning detail level. Some of the selections are made using a simple interactive select, others are…

"Refresh-Layout - Button" for Presentations
We switched by end of last week to the 12.5. Version, which brought the number scaling functionality. As a workaround we used in the last 2 years a TEC_Divisior-Entity which enabled us already to have a kind of number scaling feature —> BUT: every DataView contained a lot of blocks just for making this possible. With the…

Data Model object comments
For Data Model objects it would be informative to have to possibility to add comments and notes. For example a Procedure, under “Options” or a new tab, give the developer the possibility to write comments i.e. the purpose of the procedure, when it was last updated, who created/updated it. It could either be one big…

Restrict "Apply data selection" on "Go to screen..."
When navigating from a screen to another screen by using the action type “Go to screen…” on a label or a button, you can either check “Apply data selection” or not. However sometimes it is useful, if only a part of the data selection could be applied to the new screen. As a result it should be possible to mark per entity,…

AutoSum Selected Range
Request for a possibility to AutoSum Selected (highlighted) range, similar to AutoSum in Excel. Example below. Condition - works on numerical cells only. We have observed that Board Users often export views to excel to run sum on a range of cells that intersect across multiple rows and columns. This becomes particularly…

AI Application Integration with Text Cube
Hi Team, As you know if I have a text cube at granular level, then we can not show the same cube at more aggregated level (as the behavior is not as same as numerical cube). What we can do is, through some mechanism, these text values are feed to AI bot like chatGPT and it can generate a summary at aggregated level.

"Optimize" Sparsity from a procedure action
We already have the "Optimize" Button in cubes Analysis which helps early developers to Optimize the sparsity if they have used Extend to dimensions. It would be really helpful if we have this optimize step called as an action in the procedure. This will be really helpful to manage performance and Data Model Sizing…

Column Sorting For Add-in(excel/word) Multiple entities on columns/rows
Sorting on column for line items/members will be beneficial as they help in many reports. most of the time the line items come in a rigid format but clients need them in certain format which makes a problem while development. if column sorting option is given it will help in many ways. its needed in many reports of For…

Dynamic filter on Layouts - for flags
Hello! I was wondering if there is a way to introduce dynamic filters for binary flags/indicator variable that only take values that are 0 or 1 and can be displayed as tickboxes on the dataview. For users that wish to filter for materials in a drill down for example, it would be super helpful if they were able to select…

Improving security management through easier maintenance of profiles
Hi everyone, As I already discussed with some of our Board France friends (Andrea Masiero especially), I found that Board is missing some key features in terms of security management. Some of them have workarounds through the so-called "Tilde Database" system, but this is not usable for all customers and it was not usable…

edit multiple blocks in a layout
have the capability to apply some setup to more blocks at the same time e.g. I have 4 blocks and I want to set 2 dec for all of them: I have to open once at a time and change setup 4 times. It would be wonderful have the capability to select more blocks and apply the same setting in 1 shot. The same in the block formatting…

Resize Columns in ETL Tab of Data Readers
Maybe we are unique in having a field that is very long, but having the ability to manually change the width of columns in the ETL would be fantastic. We have different combinations of materials that can go into our goods, all depending on what has been ordered. In order to make this happen and price things appropriately,…

Waterfall chart - hide variances that equal 0
Hello everyone, I have that issue in Board to be able to compare 2 datasets with a waterfall chart: if I want to have only the non null variances appearing and try to filter on those, it also changes the totals for by beginning block and ending block. For example in the waterfall chart below, I put a filter on all non null…

Warning Message in the Board Application when Max Item number has reached
Hi Team, could we have some sort of a warning message or a notification (in the Board application UI) when any of the entities are at 100% or have crossed the 100% saturation. There have been instances in projects when the entities have crossed beyond 100% like at 120% and the implementation team or the users are unaware…

Defining Temporary cubes "on the fly"
When I write a procedure, I find it tedious to define a temporary cube when I want to implement/change a data flow. In particular I dislike that I have to leave the procedure, define the temporary cube and open the procedure again. Please implement the following feature: In the window where one can define a new data flow…

Queque for parallel Rest API Calls
Here is an additional feature I like to suggest: Consider a procedure P that uses Rest API Calls to start 10 procedures in parallel. I wish there was a comfortable way of telling Procedure P that the 10 procedures called via Rest API are finished such that P waits automatically until all 10 procedures are finished and…

Button: add rollover color for Font
Hi, simple as that: as you could change the rollover color for the background of a button already, it would be great to also add rollover colors for the text / font. This would help avoid using several layers for the same effect. Thanks! Mads

Using a temporary Cube in the procedure step Selection
Hello everybody, It would be fine, if the use of a temporary cube is also possible in the dynamic selection of the procedure step selection. At the moment you can only use a temporary cube for a dynamic selection in the procedure step select entity based on cube. When you use a dynamic selection in the procedure step…

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…

Log out functionality as an action in the Procedure
Hi Team, We have a particular scenario with one of the customer, where 1 user need to have 2 types of access on 2 different hierarchies. We were able to provide the solution based on the security based on cubes. The only thing is, it needs to logout to apply the selection based on Cube. Hence, I request a logout action…

Adding Metadata to Cubes
It would be great if we could add meta data to the cube Name: Same as today Descr: A description, for example "Actuals", "FTE"….. The description is currently not always same as cube name and I then have to change in all data views - if instead we could pick up the description we would be sure to use the same description…

Tooltip by Column Header
It has been requested several times (as in for example our most latest POC by BASF) to have the possibility to have a tooltip in the header of a block or column. This is a common practice in people that use excel since it helps understand what is within that column. Currently this can be done via a label with a tooltip…

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:…

More flexibility regarding format of import file
At the moment Board is quite limited regarding the format of import files, as one column per entity and just one column containing values are required → Table on the left side of the screenshot. It would be much more comfortable to be able to import more than one column containing values, for example values per year →…
