Enable data entry with "Vertical alignment"
In here, lots of customers are using following layout with Excel for budgeting. Put on measures(Infocubes) on rows. However, BOARD is not allowed data entry with this layout. When I put on cubes on rows with vertical alignment, data entry is not possible. I expect strongly with implemented this on board.

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.

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…

Dynamic Header Dataview
Hi! At the moment we are able to view entity-selections in a lable. It be a huge relief to use the function within the dataview as dynamic headers instead of using ctrl-cubes.

Dynamic Axis Scale for Waterfall
When setting up a Waterfall it can happens that the middle bars are so small (compared to the starting and ending bars) that it is impossible to see them. Hopefully in the web the marker is plotted outside the bar, so it's visible, but the request is to have all the bar enough large to be visible. It would be nice to have…

Drill to Window/Popup
When I drill on a DataView a popup opens. When I drill to a screen a new screen opens (either in the same tab or an additional tab). It would be useful to be able to drill to a window so my new screen appears on top of the existing screen, but as a window. This way I can move the window around and still view the screen I…

Drill Through - Allow ability to hand-type SQL in "Manual" mode for web client.
1. What is your idea? I'd like to create a drill through that returns * fields of a table/view by referencing one or many Board objects in the web client. Right now I have to individually specify each field that is returned by a drill-through instead of a simple SELECT * query. 2. What specific problem are you trying to…

Drill down - allow developers to choose opening size of popups
When the drill-down is selected, and the popup window appears (rather than going to a screen), the user is often presented with the need to use the horizontal scroll bar to display the full width of the data displayed, or to click on maximise button ( [] ) in top-right of popup window. We, as developers, strive to minimise…

Disable BOARD Menu in Web Client / General Start-Screen
Hi, we want our users to navigate in our own structure. That’s possible and easy to build and administrate with the current tools. But when it comes to the Web Client we have the left site BOARD menu. I know that some of the options can be disabled, but not the capsules browser. We don't want to use the capsules browser. I…

Deny sharing option
On a reality with hundreds of users who appreciate and use the presentations abundantly, we want to have control over what they can share and what not. To achieve this, an on-screen option with a "deny sharing" flag might be useful. Once the flag has been activated, that screen can no longer be shared in any way (by…

Datetime / Timestamp type cube
My idea Add a new type of cube : Datetime that store date and the time! Basically, it's the same as type date but support n decimal places to handle times like in Excel. Use case (exemple) : In my current project, users need to view the exact time when a task in the workflow has been completed and/or when a coworker has…

Customise session timeout value
1) What is your idea? To be able to set the session timeout to be 20 minutes. 2) What specific problem are you trying to resolve? We are trying to reduce the security risk for a system built using Board. Long (60 minutes) timeouts leave sessions vulnerable to reuse by people other than the user. 3) What workaround have you…

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.

Configure layout block for quick layout
My first scenario is related to multiannual budgeting. Most of our users have excels with collapsed column for months of the history/next years. They expand to months level when they want to go in detail. We can show data for year, but when a user want to budget monthly level she can show another block "Detailed by" Month.…

Collapse unbalanced Hierarchy
As of current the user will see everything on the screen in one big table. It would be good to be able to collapse each grouping down so you can view the table at a higher level click a drop down which would then show all the members underneath that parent. Similarly to how the regular hierarchies function.

QUICK PROCEDURES LOG
Hi It would be nice have a the possibility, directly from procedure panel, to open a window with a quick log for the current selected procedure. Not so detailed (we have the log files for this), just with the information of - running time (start-end datehour) - if completed with some errors or not - the user that have run…

Clear All cubes from procedure
1. What is your idea? Add a "Clear all cubes" procedure action so that it could be launched programmatically. 2. What specific problem are you trying to find a solution to, or what new scenario would this idea respond to? Since "once a member enters in an Entity, it stays in the Entity FOREVER", I'd like to build a…

Chart Improvements - Tooltip by text block
A great feature would be if you could also use the function "Tooltip by: Block X" in the block configuration in the chart. If you mouse over a column/bar in the chart, a tooltip with all blocks (and their values) is already displayed. In addition, you could now display text blocks in this box as a tooltip, too. In…

Chart Improvements - Distinguish between blocks in layout and in legend
Some of our customers have the desire to specifically select the blocks that should be displayed in the chart itself and which should be displayed in the legend. Thus, it would be helpful to have a function that allows you to explicitly choose which blocks to display in the legend.

Capsule transporter / Diff tool
Hi, 1. What is your idea? Add a tool, similar to the Transporter, to analyze differences between two versions of a capsule 2. What specific problem are you trying to find a solution to, or what new scenario would this idea respond to? It often happens that we need to double check the differences between two versions of the…

Broadcasting: Subject, CC, BC and Body
Dear BOARDville citizen, we are not happy with the current Broadcasting function (using BOARD 10.3). Currently we are using Broadcasting to inform our user about updated report/screen in BOARD. For example at the beginnen of each month we are informing our cost center responsibles about an updated report after the…

BOARD 11:  Optimised pop-out menus for display device
I would like to suggest that the pop-outs be optimised for low resolution screens such as Laptops and tablets as, currently, options are hidden which risks incorrect screen configurations and critical features being missed. An example of an ineffective pop-out on a low resolution screen is that of the dynamic selection…

Beautiful Heatmaps
Heatmaps can be very powerful to make pairwise comparisons (e.g. when you have a list of scenarios). Unfortunately, we do not have many options for colormaps in BOARD right now, which limits their interpretation. For example, I think I would not be able to create the heatmap below in which I compute the difference btw…

B10.5/11 Wish - Click to add Entity to Data Reader
Hi, currently you have to drag every entity one by one to the blue mapping area in a data reader. As you can not drop it anywhere else this is really not necessary and quite time consuming for large data readers. It would improve development speed a lot if you could just double click / check mark (like in win client) an…

Auto-Updating Version of BOARD Office Add-In
Hi All, not sure how many community members are affected by this, but at least for me it would be a great help, if there was an automatic update function (just like we have in the client) also for the Office Add-In. The need to deinstall one version and install another every time you connect to a different Board Server is…
