YTD | MTD Cumulation
There should be a solution for following problem: Currently I have a workaround with a procedure that autoselects the months from January to the current month of the year and another procedure that does the same only for one (current) month. It would be great if we had the possibilty to set a YTD cumulation for a month…

When ‘create report’ to PowerPoint, would like ability to adjust or remove margins.
We have some presentations with a lot of data on each screen. Users are attempting to export them to PowerPoint to print them, but the numbers are printing very small. Removing margins would make the reports much more readable.

Treemap Alerts for negative numbers
Hi All, I was pointed to non-intuitive behavior of the treemaps functionality by a Board user. In this case the CFO of the company who had a good point in his analysis. See below the issue. For treemaps, alerts can be assigned to values. So if we take green for positive and red for negative, one would (intuitively) expect…

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)…

Localization – Additional filters on DB and Capsule
Goal: Have the possibility to filter on DB and Capsule: Why: To focus on just the DB and Capsule you need to translate. It would help in presales but also in consulting to easily and quickly „customize“ applications. In the current release you see all textstrings from all DB and all capsules running on your machine. That…

Chart Improvements - Tooltip by text block
A great feature would be if you could also use the function "Tooltip by: Block X" in the block configuration in the chart. If you mouse over a column/bar in the chart, a tooltip with all blocks (and their values) is already displayed. In addition, you could now display text blocks in this box as a tooltip, too. In…

Text with placeholders to be filled with blocks
There are some reports with lots of recurring text and numbers that change. So I want to be able to use the label field and the dynawrite with not just one block, but with many. And in between put some text. e.g. "The National Association of Realtors said Thursday that its pending home sales index fell 1.5% to a reading of…

Keep dynamic selection active on the screen when using a selector
Using a cube to dynamically set selection on the screen is a very convenient functionality Dynamic Select. However, these dynamic selections are overwritten when there is a screen selector using a different entity from the same tree (screenshot attached). We want to use a cube by User and Project Category as a dynamic…

Customise Menu Button
I would like to suggest that Board provides a configurable/customisable menu, that enables users to select/deselect the buttons that they wish to appear at the top of the screen. This would help to minimise clicks and avoid unnecessary use of dropdowns. The previous version's 'Inline menu' option was only a toggle on/off…

Inline Menu Back for B11
B11 has brought many improvements in terms of ease of use and navigation, however with regards to the menu option on the top i am missing the inline menu. I am guessing there is many options and with B11 there is a fitting issue, but in this case maybe we should be able to choose which areas we wish to have in an inline…

Images/pictures from URL in dataview
I want to use dynamically pictures from URL sources in screens, dataviews, label. The dataview could profit a lot from it - right now pictures used in the Column Algorithm can only reference images out of the capsule. If URLs could be used as a source, much more dynamism would be possible, also leading to leaner capsule.…

Radius Around a Point On a Map - RAPOM

With little training, users can analyse data without knowing they are doing so; an important factor when introducing technology to tech shy corporate users. Using this object, a user can see…

Improve Date format in Export to Excel
Dataviews exported to Excel, that contain date cubes, do not behave as 'normal' excel users would expect. The dates are exported as TEXT, not dates. When an excel filter is added to column headings, the date column lists the dates in text order (not chronologically - eg 01/04/2018, 04/01/2018, 08/12/2016 etc) When sorting…

automatic `.all` entities as parent entities
Suppose you want to compare one customer with all the customers. You select one customer per pager and want to have a dataview with the sales of the one customer directly comparing it with all of them. You add two cubes, one with the sales for that customer and another with the sales of all customers. That second cube…

Dynamic ranking functions in dataview layout
At the moment the ranking functions are computed once for the dataview and only recomputed when the screen is refreshed. I'd like to have them dynamic. They should be updated whenever the sorting is changed by the user. So the cumulated values are computed as expected by the user. That would also allow finding out whether…

Search with (updating) downtotals
Currently when searching in a dataview, it is not possible to see at once the sum of rows that are returned by the search. It'd be great if the totals of the dataview could reflect the value of the search restriction.

Enhance the use of BLOB cubes
We're using the BLOB cubes to get attachments from our contributors and to consult them at central level within our organization. For a given reporting type, a single contributor can attach up to 50 external files. Currently, as soon as a contributor attached an external file, the file's name is lost for ever when stored…

Overlaying mask
Currently, a mask is applied underneath the screen so any object in the screen is rendered on top of the mask. Moreover, it doesn't allow to use layouts. It would be useful if to have layouts in masks and to have a new mask class that overlays the screen. In my current project, we are managing the user access to certain…

Synchronizing time axis between databases in a multi-database screen
Context Very often we have use cases where we need to compare data between two databases. We build two layouts (necessary because different data models) and we put them side by side. Having common selectors is of course not possible in the general case (that's the point of making two DB) but it would be very practical to…

Pivoting Dataviews

allow 2 descriptions/ names by entity name
Actually its only possible to create 1 description of an entity. And the same name will be displayed for the user for example in the selector (there are a few other examples like this) In this case we have to use a workaround and "hide" the name of the selector with a label Most of the entities an especially hierarchies…
