Incorporating Page By Option for Microsoft Excel Add-In
This option is currently only available in Standard Microsoft Excel Workbook, but applying this feature to the Add-In will save a lot of time for clients when it comes to building Excel templates connected to Board. I have a current client who would like to use the Add-In with different tabs by Reporting Unit and Conso…

Information policy needs to be improved / Share information about upcoming BOARD versions
Federica Antonelli, Leone Scaburri, Fabio Donatellis In general it would be helpful to get more and above all faster information about changes and upcoming features / releases. For example: a document by Antonio Speca was published for all Boardville 2018 participants ("The way to B11.pdf"). This could be a very useful…

Improvements 10.5.1/ Board 11.1 Web
Hello together, we worked now a lot with the webclient to configure our existing capsules. Following improvements would be great: - shortcut CTRL+Z to undo something - move objects with the arrows of the keyboard - view of the screen is to small in editing mode (would be great if you could unlock the panels) - it would be…

Improvement of layout configuration - structure defintion for rows and columns
Hello community, in our reporting process we are usually - in a "standard data view setup" - using the "Key-Figure-Entity" that is displayed by row. The column structure is basically defined by the block definitions, no additional "by column" entities are used. In this context the row structure is always very dynamic,…

Highlighted Selector
Hi All, the idea is quite simple but I think it is very useful. At the moment when there are, within a screen, several selectors on the same tree it is difficult to understand on which selector a selection has been made as the selection expands correctly itself on all the entities of the tree. An alert/symbol would be…

Geomap Centricity
It would be great to have an option to change the centrity of the GeoMap. At now it is Europe Centric, it would be nice to have Asia (or Americas) in the middle.

FREE TEXT FIELD in Entities/Cubes/DR panels
Dear all I would find useful have available a free text field in entities/cubes/data reader panels. Just to add some notes, that can help the developer in further developments and maintenance activities of the database, especially in large and complex projects. thanks

Forcing massive log-out
It would be very useful to have the possibility to make a massive log-out of all users (not only web users, but, example, also excel users connected with add-in). Restarting the Board engine is not enough to get all users off Board. The log-out takes place only for users who are connected with the web application (for…

Extract ppt from Presentation Tool
Hi all, We are working with the presentation tool and it would be very useful to have the possibility to extract a ppt formatted with the dimension of the ppt slides. At the moment, we can only extract slides with a white frame around the screenshot: there is no way to modify the slide margin. Thanks

Rich text box with a character limit please
Currently there are two choices, either a text field where the user can enter some plain text or a rich text box that creates an RTF. Could we have an RTF text box with controls on the number of characters the user can enter. For example, as the admin I’d decide to limit a text box to 4000 characters. The user would enter…

Possibility to add sever screens to a presentation at once
Currently you can only add screen after screen to a presentation. It would be comfortable to be able to select several screens from the same capsule at the same time.
-
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.

DATA - hide/show all columns
We do have some data views with a lot of columns (>30) - many users often need to hide columns via function "data" - but it's very time consuming if the first need to hide each single column with clicking on the eye - at least when they only want to have e.g. 1 or two columns in the dataview from the 30. For this purpose…

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…

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". Call it a loop through entity items or "massive reporting". When setting print options in the Board screen it's possible to use "paged by…

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…
-
Pivoting/Grouping columns
It would be great, if a kind of pivoting columns would be available in data views. E.g. a dataview has year and month as dimensions in the columns and the grouping/pivoting allows the user to expand or collaps the columns --> e.g. expanding it from year to months

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…

Possibility to align charts by the position of their axes
1. What is your idea? It would be most helpful if charts could be aligned according to their axes. 2. What specific problem are you trying to find a solution to, or what new scenario would this idea respond to? For example, charts that stand below one another could be aligned on their y-axes; charts that stand next to one…

Personalized Selectors
Hi All! During yesterday’s awesome Board 11 demonstration (thumbs up, by the way!) we were shown how you can easily choose attributes to filter cubes and entities in the new web-based database designer. Adding a similar function for the non-admin users to use in a capsule would make working with Board even more flexible.…

Pending Data Entry alert message in Web Client
When working from Web Client no question is made,so the user goes to another screen and loses all modified data. If the user enters a data entry but forgets to save it,I wants to display a warning message about saving the pending data entry. I think it is necessary when you continue to enter data.

PAGER - Security Flaw
IDEA Suppress max number of members displayed to a given sub-group when using PAGER object I would like to suggest that the PAGER object be changed to also show only the max number of members of a given sub-group and not only the max number of members within the entity. Explanation. I have found that the pager object…

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. What specific…

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…

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…
