Broadcasting – Select Presentation Owner When Making Changes
In the Broadcasting feature, we have noticed that when a user makes a change to an existing presentation or its mailing list, they now become the owner of the presentation. However, this can break the presentation if this user does not have the same permissions as the original owner. Could we please have a way to mitigate…

Layout: add functionality "copy/paste data block"
Hello, As far as i know, it is not currently possible to copy one block of a layout and paste it right away in the same layout. in older versions of Board, "dragging" a block and dropping it on a line below in the same layout was copying the block. I can't find this in Board 14.1. The feature is a time-saving one for Board…

Simultaneously of Sheet Seletion and Workbook Selection
Board Add-in Excel: in an excel file with multiple sheets it is not possible to set filters in workbook selection (e.g: year, scenario) valid for all sheets and filters on sheet selection (e.g: accounts) valid specifically for a single sheet. If both are used, only the sheet selection is considered in the file. It would be…

Function "Show Inactive Members" (Add-in Excel)
Board Add-in Excel: if there is an active selection of an entity and we need to add another one or more occurrencies, the function "show inactive members" is not available (see the attachment), and so we have to unselect all the occurrencies and select the new list. Would be nice to have this new feature with the new excel…

Save filter values in selection
We would like to have the ability to set a permanent filter value when a selection is made on a screen. This selection should remain even if the entity values are deleted. This is currently not the case. For example, if customer XYZ is currently filtered on the screen and the customer is deleted from the entity, the filter…

Fix Entity in Quick Layout
Would be great if we could fix dimensions within the quick layout. This is very important to allow mid flexibility within the quick layout function. Its specially important when we have a rule within one of the dimensions, that must always be there to be able to display data correctly.

Enable Data Entry Lock on Grant/Group total to work onDataview with more than 2 Entities in Axes
Hi Team, It would be really great if the Data entry lock can be enabled for the Group Total or Grant Total cell. And the Split and Splat should work on the the group level first and then to the individual cells. Currently even if you lock 1 total on the lowest group total, then the entire group/Grant total is disabled. In…

Procedure Visibility in Security
Just like Cube Visibility in Database Security, it would be meaningful to have the same security functionality for Procedures, where you can have Cubes that control Procedures that are possible to run. It could also be applied to Data Reader (Visibility).

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…

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…

Hardcode 'down total' formula to prevent it from referring to another block.
Hi, I've been having an issue where my 'Sales Mix (%)' calculation refers to a moving block from the layout, instead of maintaining the 'down total' function. To calculate 'Sales Mix (%)', I am using the algorithm: (Sales/Down Total (Sales))*100 or c/dt(c)% in the below example. The issue I am having is that the data view…

Add setting to allow horizontal display of "@Selection" substitution formula
In the image below, I'd like to display all of the selections horizontally on the grey banner, which is not possible using the substitution formula "@selection". Current workaround is to create multiple labels for each entity selected (8 in this example) and individually place them side by side on the banner which can be…

Ability to mask descriptions in a demo mode
It would be great if we had a way to hide descriptions or have an alternate description that we could use to hide customer names, etc if we are demoing a model to outside groups. We have external reps we want to demo to and potentially at meetings of peers and conferences, but don't want to show customers names, group…

MS Word Add-In Lacks the Formatting Functionality Present in Board Web
During the development of a report using the Microsoft Word Add-In, it has come to our attention that some of the formatting functionality that is present in Board web is not offered by the add-in. Border thickness cannot be configured in the add-in, but it can be in Board web. Unfortunately, any native MS word formatting…

Add information note in Data source connection creation
In System Admin portal, a connection should be created to link the Data Pipeline and Board. It turns out that for the alias of the connection, a maximum of 32 digits is allowed. It would be helpful if it would either not let you save the connection if the alias is too long, or at least show an information about this below.…

Delete inaccessible data model command for Board Cloud Administrator
When a data model becomes inaccessible (e.g., due to data corruption), the data model "Delete" command on the GUI is greyed out. This prevents the creation of a new data model with the same name, when there are no usable backups that can be restored. Currently, the only option for Board Cloud users is to create a Support…

"Run as administrator" option for "Advanced broadcast rule"
From my point of you it would make sense if there would also be a "Run as administrator" option for the broadcast function "Advanced broadcast rule" so that the developer can explicitly run the broadcast function without (previously removed) security selections. Right now there is no such option so the broadcast function/…

Board Theme: Header Picture Scaling
Hi all! This is a rather minor wish: When scaling windows or changing screen resolutions, the Board Theme "Header background picture" should also do so accordingly. Alternatively (or in a first step), the option to align the "Header background picture" left or center, in addition to the implicit default (right), would be…
