Entity Search
When using a "selector" or "detailed by" in a layout there is no real search function for the entities. Also, the drop down field showing the entities is very small showing only around 6 entities. It would be much more user friendly if everywhere the "search" function is used as in the procedure.

Add "next screen" Button
It would be comfortable to have in the capsules a standardised button that directs to the next screen in the capsule (similar to the presentation mode). Obviously, the button should only be visible if the screen list is not hided.

Unload Database procedure step
Hi Team, with our Customer we are facing the following challenge: We are implementing the multi language feature across several Databases. Everytime we receive new description texts, an unload of the database is necessary for the new descriptions to come into effect. Currently there is no structured approach to do this in…

Cube preview
To help the administration of the data model, it would be extremely useful to be able to "open" a cube and to have a "preview" of the cube What i mean is that administrators should be able to open a cube: a table would be displayed on the screen that shows data included in the cube with all dimensions I have seen this…

Procedure : Display selections on "If Then Else" action
Hi community, The problem here is simple : In the procedure Global view, it is impossible to know if a "If Then Else" action contains a Selection or not. We must open it and click on "Select" to check if a selection have been made. Or guess it, but not really easy! The idea would be to add a text to inform the user, like…

Null function

New Time function "Full Year Value"
Hi all, I have been looking for easy ways to manage this, but so far no satisfying solution. Requirement: In a given dataview, where the screen has a month selection (user is supposed to enter actual values for this month), I need to display as a comparison : * the year to date budget value (easy) * the year to date actual…

Log track of entities saturation and in case the MaxItem is reached
In B12 when the Max Item saturation is reached, Board gives no alert even if Data Readers fails to load data due to the impossibility to add new members. It would be nice to have this error and also to have it tracked in the logs (such as Data reader failure etc). Also having the saturation information monitored in some…

Interactive selections: adding a text
My idea concerns interactive selections. Indeed, in the actual system, it is not possible to specify anything as a sentence to guide users as we want them to check data. Thus, what I thought would be nice to add to the software is : the possibility to write a sentence just above the data proposed. In this way, if we want…

Save data entry automatically runs procedure
1. What is your idea? When using the standard save dataentry function on a screen (F9, from sliding panel, from WIN Client, from procedure, in advanced data entry) BOARD should be able to run a predefined procedure 2. What specific problem are you trying to find a solution to, or what new scenario would this idea respond…

Fix the duration in the Gantt-Chart (its off by 1 day)
Hi, it seems like the automatic calculation of the duration, which one can enable in the settings of the Gantt-Chart, is wrong by one day. For example, the duration for an activity from the 10.1.2023 to the 13.01.2023 is shown as 3 days, while in reality there are 4 days: 10,11,12,13. I assume it just calculates…

"Expand Above" in Data View
Hello, Version: B12.6 In data views with more than one entity per row, headers are automatically added for each entity used. Like so: However, if we want to have the summation going [b]down[/b], a subtotal at the bottom is required. This means that we end up with an empty header row, which just takes up space. My…

Show "Entity used in selection"
1. What is your idea? The Idea is, to show in the Entity list of the database a hint, if this entity is used in a selection (like “in use in a cube”). In addition, there should be information on which elements the selection are based on. Also where the selection is set (which Screen, Layout, etc.) 2. What specific problem…

Subcription Hub - Export of all columns
Dear all, In the SubHub, the export of data is very useful for analysis. Unfortunately, not all columns are exported, why ? It would be very helpful to have for example the last connexion date of the user ! In my point of view, this is the most important information to clear the users list and free some licenses. Thanks.…

Enhance the DataView Layout SORT function
Currently DataView layouts can only sort by ONE block/entity. It would be helpful to be able to apply a sort using several blocks. For example, where a client's data has 3 levels - eg Site, Floor, and Work Area and you wish the report to sort by Site, then Floor then Work Area descriptions, and the date the Work Area was…

Smaller, non-obtrusive tooltips
When there is a button (image) in a table, when you mouse over it, a tooltip pops up to explain what it is. However, the tooltip is enormous! It gets in the way. It can be extremely annoying. Imagine two buttons (images) in a table, you want to click one but when you mouse over, the tooltip of the other gets in the way. It…

Export Cube / Entity View to Excel
Hey, after adding the feature "Export Impact Analysis data to Excel" in version 12.3 it would be great to have a similar functionality for the Cube View and Entity View in the Data Model section. In my opinion this would make documentations way more easier especially for big data models. Kind regards Thomas

Dynamically display of time periods in headings
It would help us enormously if we could dynamically display the time periods of the underlying data in the headings in Board data views. Always just a descriptive text like "Plan year" and "Plan year + 1" is not user-friendly.

Dynamic Selection based on multiple cubes
Hi, sometimes when displaying for example a report showing sales and quantities it would be helpful to apply a dynamic selection based on both cubes (we could have items with sold quantities at zero sales value). Moreover it would be great also to have a dynamic selection based on a layout: in a report showing current year…

Dynamic Header Dataview
Hi! At the moment we are able to view entity-selections in a lable. It be a huge relief to use the function within the dataview as dynamic headers instead of using ctrl-cubes.

Deny sharing option
On a reality with hundreds of users who appreciate and use the presentations abundantly, we want to have control over what they can share and what not. To achieve this, an on-screen option with a "deny sharing" flag might be useful. Once the flag has been activated, that screen can no longer be shared in any way (by…

Use case (exemple) : In my current project, users need to view the exact time when a task in the workflow has been completed and/or when a coworker has…

Corporate Identity Designer
In Board 10 we had the possibility to set Corporate specific colors and default formatting of objects. This was part of the System area "Corporate Identity Designer". This was a very handy functionality that should be re-instated. Too much time is being lost in formatting. Thanks.

Configure layout block for quick layout
My first scenario is related to multiannual budgeting. Most of our users have excels with collapsed column for months of the history/next years. They expand to months level when they want to go in detail. We can show data for year, but when a user want to budget monthly level she can show another block "Detailed by" Month.…

Collapse unbalanced Hierarchy
As of current the user will see everything on the screen in one big table. It would be good to be able to collapse each grouping down so you can view the table at a higher level click a drop down which would then show all the members underneath that parent. Similarly to how the regular hierarchies function.

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…

Auto-Updating Version of BOARD Office Add-In
Hi All, not sure how many community members are affected by this, but at least for me it would be a great help, if there was an automatic update function (just like we have in the client) also for the Office Add-In. The need to deinstall one version and install another every time you connect to a different Board Server is…
