Drill to Window/Popup
When I drill on a DataView a popup opens. When I drill to a screen a new screen opens (either in the same tab or an additional tab). It would be useful to be able to drill to a window so my new screen appears on top of the existing screen, but as a window. This way I can move the window around and still view the screen I…

Enrich dataview formatting options to approach IBCS® standards
1. What is your idea? Enrich the dataview's format settings. In particular the block-specific #format settings of a layout.

Format "GroupBy"
It would be nice to have the same format in the "groupby" as it is defined in the block. The total cell doesn't keep the format (colour for example) set in the block, it's a shame.

Massive reporting: export looping through entity items
A common challenge using Board is to export from Board to other media formats (like pdf, xlsx, pptx, ...) especially when the output must be "one file per each item of an entity".

BOARD Community Navigation frustrations
I am finding it increasingly frustrating when reading through forums. I am used to using forums, scrolling down, selecting an article to read and then returning to the point in the 'stack' that I left by using a browser 'back' button. However, on the BOARD forum, I will scroll through a forum and select an article to read.…

Apply Selection to Block on multiple blocks at once
Instead of having to select Screen-Dataview-Block for each block in a separate "Apply Selection to Block"-action, it would save a lot of time if it was possible to multi-select all needed blocks from all dataviews on the screen.

Enhance the management of the security
When the profile assigned to a group is changed, the revised profile should be propagated to all the members of this group. Several profiles could be assigned to one group of users or to one user. We have to be able to build one or several profiles per capsule. Groups would help to build "Business profiles" by assigning…

Suggested Value Enhancements

It is difficult to enter data quickly with the current functionality as each cell requires a click and select from a list. It would be extremely helpful for users having to do large amounts of data entry on suggested…

Export a layout to ASCII file in "append" mode
