Adding "Apply entity selection to screen"
Hey, when e.g. using "fake" selectors on screens to add different selections based on cube like currency on a country selection etc. you always have to use the "Apply selection to screen" option. This "apply selection to screen" then always overwrites the "default" selection when resetting selections on different entites…

Summary Algorithm NOTOTAL for Column Algorithm (Layout)
Hi all, it would be great to have the same function (NOTOTAL) for column algorithm as in the data selection. Attached you will find a screenshot.

Smart Import tick/save - change to "Import"
The Smart Import has a tick button to import the lines. This button has a tooltip that says "Save". This is not true, it isn't saving, it is importing. Can you please allow for this button to be changed to "Import" or at least if the tooltip could be changed from save to import, at least that would help a little. It's…

Add setting to allow horizontal display of "@Selection" substitution formula
In the image below, I'd like to display all of the selections horizontally on the grey banner, which is not possible using the substitution formula "@selection". Current workaround is to create multiple labels for each entity selected (8 in this example) and individually place them side by side on the banner which can be…

Option of restricting elements for selectors
Up to now, for a selector, there was only the possibility to display all elements or only the active elements. However, I had the requirement in many projects that the selectable elements should be restricted depending on other filtering. Reasons could be for example: Elements of entities are no longer valid, but should…

Number Scaling - formatting options
The new function is pretty good - but it would be really good, if there would be some formatting options for the number scaling —> e.g. k instead of K or T instead of K etc. Also deactivating the suffix would be great - so just having the value without K/M/B

Database Security / Transporter
Hi All, it would be really useful if the Board Transporter Tool would consider and work also with the Database Security Profiles. There are many alternatives (especially for customers working with the Subscription Hub) but it would be a great enhancement. Thanks, federico

Enhance user experience by adding search functionality
Sometimes, when working with databases providing more than just a couple cubes or entities, finding the cube or entity you're looking for in the drop-down lists can be pretty cumbersome when no search function is available. Consider this example from the action library for calling a procedure If, however, developers would…

Extract Cubes in Parquet-File
1. What is your idea? Board has multiple steps to extract data from cubes: Extract Cube Export Data View to file Export Dataset Extract all cubes All these steps save data as text or csv-files.

Option to Hide Tabs
Dear all, The tab container is probably one of the most used objects across many applications and in my experience an absolute customer and user favourite. Sometimes, it is necessary to remove tabs for a certain situation but you want to keep the contained dataview for future use. Saving a backup screen, deleting the tab,…

Default Entity Member Labeling Convention to Excel Tab upon Export
When exporting a Board screen to excel and choosing to page by a given entity that within Board has been set to "code" as the default setting for that entity, the exported tab pages within the excel document appear as the description of the entity member and not the desired code of the entity member. It would be helpful to…

Codes and customer description in multiple columns.
Need to bring codes and descriptions in axes of the layout separately as individual items rather than single item. The requirement is to have the codes and descriptions of the multiple entities in separate columns rather than code or desc or both in 1 column for each entity in the axes. This also resolves the sequencing…

Possibility to define datetime function formatting
ISSUE: Datetime is always restricted to the cultural settings of the user (or in some cases the computer) that uses it. This could cause issues when, for example, an export of a cube that has a timestamp in it (that was created using datetime) is expected to arrive in certain formatting, but a user with a different culture…

Close Message Option
It would be great if the option existed to close the informative Board messages that appear on the screen (example below). Although they only appear for 3-4 seconds, it can be frustrating when trying to work quickly as sometimes the next button you want to click is behind this message. It would be helpful to be able to…

Automation possibilty for "Sparsity Optimization"
We very much appreciate the new sparsity optimization feature that makes manual export/import obsolete. It would be great if this function could also be automated. There are use cases in which plan data is cleared or zeroed out again, for example, but the sparsity remains full. Therefore, it would be very helpful if the…

Deleting entity elements made easy
There is already a guide on "How to remove obsolete entity members". However, this process should be much easier. It would be great if entity members can be deleted easily by hand. Especially, in big databases that would be a huge relief because it wouldn't be necessary to reload the entity and cubes. As a bonus, it would…

"Min" and "Max" as aggregation-functions
It would be very helpful to be able to select "Min" and "Max" as aggregation-functions on an entity, in addition to the existing "distinct count", "average" and "sum" (see second screenshot). Right now it is possible to display the min- and max-values as a row total (see lower dataview in the first screenshot), but not if…

Ability to set the color of background of the value on a card
Currently the background color can be set for all elements except for the background where the value is shown. This does not allow for the card to be to fully formatted to the company branding, as shown with the white box around the number. My client would like to set this to transparent. While this can be achieved with a…

Select entities to clear in a cube
Today we have the possibility, in a Procedure, to clear the Cube with existing selection ("Use current selection") or clear the whole Cube (default). If you only want to clear on specific Entities you will need to setup a save & restore selection and/or de-select & re-select specific Entities. Suggestion: Give the…

New screen object: Multi-Selector
Hi All, during a presentation of a process mining tool I saw a pretty neat object and thought that maybe this could be replicated in Board: A selector that allows you to choose the entity you want use in a drop-down. What could this look like? The object would be divided into an upper and a lower part. In the upper part…
