Online Users screen improvements - limited usefulness now
1. What is your idea? * Add AM/PM to the load login column * Correct the Online Column (it is incorrect, showing users not logged in) * Correct Last Logout column (it is incorrect) * Correct the Last Operation column (it is incorrect, all users show a last operation time within a minute of the refresh) 2.

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…

Copy of BLOB Cubes in DataFlows
Hi All, at the moment it is not possible to copy blob Cubes in dataflows. It would be great when a simple copy of BLOB Cubes in DataFlow would be possible. It also would be great if the target BLOB Cube could have some more or leass dimensions than the source BLOB Cube. Regards, FabFro

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…

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.

Drill down in web in flattened mode
Hi all, For excel export reasons (see Export Data to Excel in Flattening mode for Web client ) I built a layout using the flattened presentation, with 2 entities by row (Legal Entity then Material). Before using the flattened option, I could drill down by clicking on my Material entity. Now that it's flattened, I can drill…

Export as Picture/Image
Provide the ability to also select 'Picture' (or PNG, JPG) when exporting from BOARD via a procedure BOARD currently allows you to export as PDF/PPT/DOC/XLS from a procedure, and also has these option when setting up a BLOB cube, but BLOB cubes also allow for pictures (in 10.5 at least), however BOARD doesn't allow you to…

Interactive Selection with nothing selected
In Board 10.3 Web: the behavior of the Interactive Selection is now coherent with the Selector's https://help.board.com/Board_10.3.0.50924_Release_Notes.htm The problem with the above implementation for our use case are: * As we limit what the user can select in the Interactive Selection, all the entities displayed are now…

Add native Excel Datareader functionnality
Today to read an Excel file you can either create a ODBC connection or save it as CSV. The idea is to add the native abiliy to create a datareader to an Excel Sheet, like it exist in other tools so that you just have to select the file to upload it.

Folders Access Rights on the Cloud
Currently, the security of the shared storage of Board Cloud is not managed. Anybody who has access to the link generated has access to all folders & files. The idea is to manage access rights by folders like in Windows on the shared data storage to allow users to have access to the data they want to post.

Enable Profile Image Upload
Board 11 continues (see previous thread) to only allow web-link images for users' profile photos/avatar. It would be helpful to also enable images to be uploaded from windows explorer (any drive). Regards Mike

Allow Reverse Algorithm on a TEXT algorithm
Currently you can only populate a text cube via a reverse algorithm if the algorithm is numeric. This seems somewhat pointless as we have numeric cubes for these. What would be more useful is being able to apply a reverse algorithm on a text algorithm into a text cube. It doesn't come up often, but the workaround to get…

Option to hide Screen Name in HTML 5 Browser
In the Web browser the name of the BOARD screen is always displayed at the top of the browser screen, in a lot of cases you may have a long screen name or maybe you have a screen naming convention that is a bit 'Ugly' to look at. It would be great if there would be an option to hide the screen name. Interested to hear the…

Improve the Selector display used within a procedure
When performing data input over the web, we're triggering procedures relying on the "Interactive selection" feature. When the selector pop-up is displayed, it always shows the "code + description" of the entity member, which is, in a data entry user point of view, sometimes not convenient. Technically speaking, we'd like…

Drill down in maps
Would it be possible for data that is being displayed in a map object to be distributed to a lower level of detail as you zoom on a map. Say for example, my Geography hierarchy is * Country * Region/State * City * Suburb/Postcode * Street Currently you would need Lat/Long cubes for each level in this hierarchy and 5 map…

DataViews with dynamic column width
Currently, a fix column width needs to be set in order to display the largest number in a data view. If this is not properly set some digits are hidden, misleading the users. However, the largest number possibly displayed can change a lot based on the screen selection. Therefore, a large column width needs to be set to…

Data View Columns Width faster configuration
The data view columns width is set 120 as default and adjust columns width sometimes is not "comfortable". Especially in large data view some options may be useful: - set a different default width and an option to apply it to all blocks or to selected ones. - have a shortcut key to open the width config panel (e.g. CTRL+W)…

Identify procedures that utilise a cube
The existing Search functionality in capsules can be utilised to easily identify usage of a cube in screens and capsules.. However, the search does not return any results for use within a procedure or data reader. This functionality will be very useful when trying to identify how and which procedures or data readers update…

Make visible "by row" and "show all" option in Dataflow
As you might have noticed, dataflow behave differently if you create the layout directly or you copy it from and existing report having sometihing by row and flag show all set. Would be nice to have it visible directly in dataflow configuration instead of setting/viewing it only when you copy and paste back to a report. I…

Link with "button" functions on label or dynawrite text portion
It would be nice to have the possibility to set a text contained in a label or dynawrite and activate, for a defined screen, the same options allowed e,g, for a button. IN other words, "integrate" the button in a dynawrite. Example: in a screen I have a label containing this string "To update figures click on button…

Insert New Member Trigger in ATO
It is sometimes needed that when you create a new element (a version for versioning for example) in an ATO a procedure is started, however triggers can only take place when we change the element inside and not when we create a new one. In the example from versioning maybe we want to create a new element with an ATO and…

Disable "edit layout" by report
Hi, i would like the "edit layout" option to be active only in specific reports. In fact often the option in security level is too restrictive, because we need to freeze specific reports for complexity reasons but mostly for SECURITY reasons (many times we are obligated to set a specific FILTER for security reason and we…

Broadcast function to send SMS
Currently BOARD can send alerts to email via the broadcast capability, could this be extended to allow the sending of alerts via SMS? I haven't fully researched but a quick google suggests that there are a number of subscription services for redistributing an email to an SMS that may work. Does the community think this…

Make "Full Screen", Full Screen
I am looking into the idea of using transition containers to replicate PowerPoint presentations, but live in BOARD, allowing the presenter to drill through on screen and and further analyse information live during a presentation. One of the comments that has come up as an objection to this concept is the "eye distraction"…

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.…
