Simple but improved user authorisation possibilities
Problem: If you use several databases, then you have to create a “Profile” for every possible combination of databases, at the moment. For example: If you have 2 Databases, then you have to create Profile_1 for all users, which are authorised for database 1, Profile_2 for all users, which are authorised for database 2 and…

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

I want to write a calculation formula in Excel
It is possible to add a formula to Excel temporarily, but if you write to Board, the number will be overwritten in the cell containing the formula and the formula will disappear. I understand this is a specification. We correspond it by using macros and "Use Excel Formulas". Is there any other way?

Totals on top of each group
Hello, currently checking the Dataview Option "View Total on Expanded Group" the totals are shown both on top and bottom of each group. It would be nice to choose where to show the totals (on top OR bottom of each group).

Screen-level export to excel for Presentations
Dear team, There is currently in the top-right menu an option to extract the whole screen to Excel, with 1 tab per layout, which is very practical. However it is not available when the same screen is customized and added to a Presentation. Idea : align the Presentations available export functions with the Screen. That…

Quick Layout: Ability to determine which blocks can be visible/hidden to users
Hi R&D, The current quick layout configuration allows users to hide/unhide all visible blocks within the layout. I am suggesting that developers should have the option to determine which blocks appear in the quick layout configuration (same concept that exists for entities in the axes configuration). In the particular use…

fix cube structure @building Cube Versions
For some cubes we do have >10 cube versions created --> but when there are more than 12 cube versions, you need to scroll to the right - but then the very left part with the cube structure/list of dimensions is not visible anymore which makes it hard to create/compare/update existing version

Edit Presentations + Actualization of time selections
currently changing the selection(s) is not possible when having saved a screen as presentation ---> also selection procedures are not working. We are having e.g. a selection procedure for selection Year-to-date --> and the figures in the dataview are not updating, when clicking the button with this procedure. And it would…

Data Model restore - idea for improvements
PROBLEM: B10 Web: 1) When I click on "restore data model" I see the list of all db backups, and choosing another data model the one I want to restore is completely replaced by the other one (except the name). This could happen by mistake. 2) I cannot access to this function if the database is corrupted and access denied…

Dynamic selection on cube - Period<>0 as default
Hello I think that the option "Period<>0" in dyn selections based on cube setup is the most commonly used, but the default is "latest value". Why don't set it as default? Or at least remove the default and make the choice an added compulsory step to go on.

Numbers Scaling improvement
I see the new option "Nr Scaling" in B10.8, very nice But having mixed automatic criteria may be not so nice to see Adding a choice between e.g. None / Automatic / All K / All M... would make this function very appreciated

Language Settings vs Export Layout by Day
Hello PROBLEM: In B10 - Web version, I see that the language set in security profiles affects, more than nr/dates format, the day format in procedure actions ExportLayout where the day is set as entity by row. This is a problem, since the same procedure may have different behaviours depening on who is running it. The day…

USER-specific data views pivoting/flattening
When using rows&columns function and changing the shown entities in the table - it would be great if there is a possibility for the user (normal users - no power users) to decide whether the table is pivoted (which is standard) or flattened..

USER-specific display settings ENTITIES
We had now several request if it's possible, that a user (normal user - no power user) can define, if the entity shows code, description or code + description in a dataview - especially for entities which are chosen via Quick Layout (rows & columns). Only the default display setting from the entity itself is taken, and…

Subscriptions - IMPROVEMENTS
It would be great if a user can define when creating a new subscription, if the format has portrait or landscape format --> as most of the screens fit better on landscape format. Also it would be great if they could deactivate selections and the url in the export and probably add elements, like it's available in "create…

Hide tooltip icon when Data entry is on for empty cells
In Board 11, the tooltip function was displaying only it's icon and content if and only if there was content in the block used as reference for the tooltip. This was also regardless the status of the block (data entry on or off). In Board 12 this behavior was changed and if the block used as reference is in Data Entry…

Password Protection - confirm entry with ENTER-button
We are using on one screen a password protection for getting forwarded via a label to an administration screen. When entering the password in the pop-up-window it can get only confirmed with clicking on OK-button --> it would be great if this would be possible also with pressing ENTER-button.

Keep file name of uploaded files
1) What is your idea? Keep the original file name of the file being uploaded into Board. 2) What specific problem are you trying to resolve? When the file is uploaded into Board, the file name is lost and the file gets a generic name. We would like to keep the file names of files uploaded to Board (as BLOB cube). 3) What…

define position of horizontal scrollbars
It would be great if there is an option defining the place of horizontal scrollbars at data views --> on top or at the bottom. Currently it's always on the bottom - but combined with a vertical scrollbar in the browser it's not easy to reach or at least good visible for users. Therefore it would be great if the scrollbar…

hiding parts of chart legend
We are having "technical" cubes/formulars in charts for design aspects, which are not solvable via available settings --> e.g. fixed zero-line and max in a chart showing net sales per month for py, act and bud. And these two parts are listed in the legend which is a bit irritating for the user --> therefore it would be…
-
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

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.
-
Unbalanced Hierarchy Sorting
In board 12, the current unbalanced hierarchy function is great, however there is no option to have the parents/members sorted by your own criteria. Currently all the totals sit at the top of the tables. To be able to have the totals sit at the bottom of the piece of data would be ideal, as well as being able to change…

Block Reference - Dynamic Selection on
It would be great if dynamic selections would be available at block references (for used cubes in data views/charts) --> this would probably make currently necessary count/selection-cubes irrelevant and enable more flexibility - especially regarding time selections or time related columns.
