Order of filtering in Layout Selection window overrides Custom Sort order ranking on Entities
Hi, I noticed that my custom sort for this entity was not being followed on the data view the way I ranked it in the data model (image 1). It took me a while to realise, but I wanted to make it aware that the order of ranking in the layout selection window overrides the Custom Sort. This is misleading. I believe the Custom…

Styles and Themes for Objects
For each object type, the ability to create multiple saved styles and then save those styles to a theme so that when creating a capsule you can select a theme and when you create an object you can either do the usual and create a custom design or simply select from a list of predefined styles. Additionally if you update…

Exit Procedure with "X"
Cloud Version 12.6 I recall seeing this idea before, but can't find the post. In case my (human) memory is lacking, I will post this as a new idea. When hitting the "X" in a Procedure message, the Procedure will act like I pressed the "OK" button - the Procedure continues. I understand you can use "Yes/No" option in a…

Unexpected behavior with empty Procedure Groups
Cloud Version 12.6. This might be considered a bug, but I will report this as an Idea of changing Procedure behavior. When a Procedure contains an empty Group, Board will immediately jump to the group below and consider the steps from the group bellow to belong to the empty group. However, if the empty group instead has a…

See all Entities placed in Columns in Excel Add-in
Version: Board 12.6 In Excel Add-in, when adding more than one Entity in Columns, only the lowest placed Entity will be visible. However, with multiple Entities in Rows, there's a new column added in the spreadsheet. Suggestion: Have the same solution for Columns as for Rows. Have Excel add extra rows, when using multiple…

Home Screen by User
I think it would help a lot with solution design if we could set a home screen against the user profile, so that we can design different home screens for different people within an organization and have them taken directly there upon entering a capsule.

Selection of screen object & navigation behaviour pattern
Version 12.4 To help navigate complex screen designs which include tabs/panels, it would be helpful when clicking on an object within the screen to automatically navigate to the correct object in design mode - will save a lot of time for end users. Note - this may have been updated in a later release of Board, cannot find…

Downloading/Extracting files to selected folder
Cloud, Version 12.6 It would be convenient if you could choose where you download/extract files. Today, Extracting an Entity ends up in the not accessible C:\.

Dynamic links in Procedures
When changing a Cube name that exists in a Procedure step, the Procedure will not update the name, but the linking remains. However, if a Procedure name is changed, the Call Procedure (a Procedure step) link is broken. This is regardless if it's a Data Model Procedures or a Capsule Procedures. Changing Group names (Go To…

Edit Code in Entity Editor
It's great that the User can edit the Description in the Entity Editor. It would also be useful if the Developer can give rights to edit the Code as well.

Set duration for a popup notification
It would be useful to have the possibility to set the duration for the popup notification. For better user experience, in some cases I don't want to use the non-popup notification, where the user needs to click "ok" to continue. But using the popup notification, sometimes you barely have enough time to read the…

Opening Balance Roll Forward over all future Periods
Currently Board has no "native" Opening to Closing balance function. Currently this can be handled using Nexel or using two cell blocks and a formulae to reference the block before. The first alternative using Nexel works but is tricky to set up and is associated with a specific view. The second is worse as the roll over…

Ability to type in Row number to view in Data Reader ETL
Hi, I was creating a Data Reader with an ETL in the Validation Condition and wanted to scan across the file to view another row that had a different "Stock Source" to confirm that my formula was working correctly, but I had to manually flick between the rows. It'd be nice to, e.g., input row "200" as a text field in the…

Hidden Cubes visible for Developer
To hide Cubes for User's is a great function to limit the visible Cubes in Data view layout and Office Add-in. But unfortunately, the Cubes are also hidden for the Developer. Suggestion Make it possible to hide Cube's for different Roles. Add another column (green area) to control visibility for the Admin/Developer.
