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.

BOARD 11 Randomizer Tool
WHAT WAS THE RANDOMIZER TOOL. To those that knew of it, and before BOARD 11, the Randomizer Tool was hugely powerful, allowing test models of production offerings to be created in as little as five minutes (once you knew the fields and cubes to obfuscate).

Add Options to sort entities in descending fashion

Allow data entry with selection on layout
Hi Community Members, although I am quite aware of certain "known limitations", there is one huge wish for future versions: It is not so uncommon that layouts with data entry enabled should be restricted to certain entity members, while the rest of the screen should still show all of them. In order to achieve this, a…

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…

@Authorizations in labels (@Selection improvement)
Hi everybody, Very often in order to explain a result to a user, we have to take into account the authorizations he has, which can be quite complex in our cases.
