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…

Tab container : Tab name / Allow images and shapes
Idea : In the Tab container, the tab name is currently restricted to text. My idea is to add features to have :* a tool tip when hovering the tab name (particulary useful if using emojis as name (i.e. : ?????) * shapes instead of text tab name (like in labels) * small images to use as icones instead of text tab name Why :…

Possibility to show code and description of the entity day
Hi, it would be great to have the possibiliy to show either code or description of the entity day. Now it doesn't matter if you set show code or show description, because always description is displayed. I remeber former board versions where this was possible. Thanks and regards Thomas

Subtotals for distinct count
When using the distinct count aggregation function in Board 12, no subtotals are shown in data views. Would be great to have subtotals for aggregation functions when using multiple row entities.

Mandatory dimensions in quick layout
Context - When designing data entry screens, we are often in the situation where we want to give a maximum flexibility to the end user to choose the most relevant axis. Quick layout is great for that. Issue - However we often have the situation where at least one dimension is mandatory, otherwise figures don't make sense.…

More Procedures
It would be very helpful to have more options for procedures. Another action section labeled "Data View" with the ability to hide, apply sort, etc, would be helpful. Also, additions to the screen section to do screen formatting, like move chart to 171 left, label color to green etc.

Multiple Screen printing configuration
Allow te capability to save more than 1 printing configuration in a screen. When screen export is set in a procedure, only one configuration is allowed. e.g. in a screen with graphs and tables, I would set 2 buttons , 1 to export a pdf with graphs only and 1 to export both tables and diagrams. Currently is not possible…

Show code and description separately in layout
In over 20 years of experience with Board I've been asked hundreds of times to show dimensions by row in a dataview with separated columns for code and description. As far as the last dimension by row is concerned I always use a workaround to show the entity description as a block but the problem is not so easy once you…

Presentations - Folder-Structure / Categorization
As we are having already a lot of Presentations in use, it would be great to have a possibility for structuring Presentation via Folders, Categories, Tags or similiar. Currently they are all in one list, which is getting soon very confusing. Also a search function would be great.

Database name in DataEntry_YYYYMM.log
1) What is your idea? Provide the database name for each data entry in the data entry log file. 2) What specific problem are you trying to resolve? When the file C:\Board\Dataset\Log\DataEntry_YYYYMM.log is populated we can see only the cube name but not the name of the database. This is a problem if our application is…

Power Users - Restrict Data Entry Ability
Currently Power Users have the ability to turn on Data Entry. This introduces a huge risk in that any power user could turn on data entry and clear any of cubes of the data. Can this be included as a capability for the user type? i.e. so they have the ability to build layouts and screens but not be able to enter data into…

DataView scrolling: fix top entities
Hi, To ease the navigation in a data view with several entities by row and a large number of rows it would be helpful to have the option to choose that some top entities stay on top of the layout when scrolling. Assume we have the following row structure with entities A and B and entity A is set to be fixed on top. A1 B1…

ALLOW THE SEARCH BAR IN THE IF THEN ELSE ACTION
Currently, we are not able to search in a dynamic way a cube in If Then Else action. Even if we can type the begining of the cube name, this is not flexible. Please add the search bar in the If Then Else action as we have it in the Clear cube action.

Warn Board users when cloud planned maintenance is about to start
We had a few cases with a customer having a user working on Board when the monthly cloud maintenance kicked off on the machine hosting the Board server. Although it is said on the SaaS agreement which Sundays we plan to patch their servers, and they communicate it to their usersbase, it can still happen that someone is…

BOARD Cloud - Admin Portal - Enable Schedule for Services Restart
In BOARD Cloud platform, it's not possible to schedule Restart of Services. It could be nice to be able to schedule the restart of Board Engine service and Board Web service. As well as being able to schedule the "Unload" (of a DataModel in RAM). These schedules would ensure to have a Re-set of application on a regular…

Transform rgb(rx,gx,bx) values to rgba(rx,gx,bx,1) automatically
Idea : When copy a rgb(rx,gx,bx) values and Board would parse it and convert to rgba(rx,gx,bx,1) correctly Most GFX charts and color picker tool work with format rgb but not with rgba which make copy/pasting in the absent of a corporate identity designer less convenient. Workaround : Currently you can copy paste…

Quick Layout : Reference Trees + Drag & Drop
Idea : Instead of adding every single entity of a tree one by one and for each layout. Add the possibility to reference a tree instead and display pertinent* entities of the tree. Then when you've added a two new entities to your customer hierarchy for instance, you aren't forced to reopen the 54 layout and add. * With…

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.

Detail by - Dedicated & Independant "Show All" Options
Idea : Add a dedicated "Show all" options for detail by applied to the block Sometimes, for a better viewing/input experience, you need to display all entities defined in your "By Column" for all block but not all the detail by column that are empty.

Add Folder properties / Formatting
It would be very useful to have an option to change the properties of the folders (same way as we can with capsules). The option to change the background and give an icon, creates a better welcome for our users. In the way we designed the folder/capsule structure they only see a lot of white folder blocks.

Master Data cleaning
Clean obsolete members in a db is a chaotic exercise, while for some applications it is mandatory to do it on a regular basis. Board should provide a tool, that detect such members (i.e no actual data for last 2 years) and propose to delete them without impacting screen selections, procedures selections....

Ease capsule renaming
Dear team, We would like to rename our capsules but it seems that it is almost impossible without loosing what we have already built in BOARD as we have feeds, presentations, go to screen, screen procedures in place. It would be great if we could link the capsule to anything without putting the name of the capulse but…

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.

Same Data Entry Rules when dataview is vertically aligned
Hi, It would be good to be able to use the same data entry functions when a dataview is vertically aligned. An example is when I have a dataview formatted by 5 cubes with the Years in the columns I cannot use the ">" function to split the same value across every year. Thanks Jack
