Add Options to sort entities in descending fashion
Currently, you can't decide to sort entity by * "None" = insert order * "Code" * "Desc" However, it would be more than nice to have the possibility to choose the sort type between descending and ascending. It is especially usefully when creating version,scenario, sandbox, where often the latest ones, are the go to. For…

Text with placeholders to be filled with blocks
There are some reports with lots of recurring text and numbers that change. So I want to be able to use the label field and the dynawrite with not just one block, but with many. And in between put some text. e.g. "The National Association of Realtors said Thursday that its pending home sales index fell 1.5% to a reading of…

Allow Reverse Algorithm on a TEXT algorithm
Currently you can only populate a text cube via a reverse algorithm if the algorithm is numeric. This seems somewhat pointless as we have numeric cubes for these. What would be more useful is being able to apply a reverse algorithm on a text algorithm into a text cube. It doesn't come up often, but the workaround to get…

Improve the Selector display used within a procedure
When performing data input over the web, we're triggering procedures relying on the "Interactive selection" feature. When the selector pop-up is displayed, it always shows the "code + description" of the entity member, which is, in a data entry user point of view, sometimes not convenient. Technically speaking, we'd like…

Drill down in maps
Would it be possible for data that is being displayed in a map object to be distributed to a lower level of detail as you zoom on a map. Say for example, my Geography hierarchy is * Country * Region/State * City * Suburb/Postcode * Street Currently you would need Lat/Long cubes for each level in this hierarchy and 5 map…

Blur Other Objects
After reviewing some of the e-learning materials, I noticed how the videos blur the background while text is the focus of the video. From a visual perspective, it draws the eye exactly to the text, removing distractions from view. We already have a property to hide objects, but I would like to be able to focus attention…

Broadcast function to send SMS
Currently BOARD can send alerts to email via the broadcast capability, could this be extended to allow the sending of alerts via SMS? I haven't fully researched but a quick google suggests that there are a number of subscription services for redistributing an email to an SMS that may work. Does the community think this…

BOARD Community Navigation frustrations
I am finding it increasingly frustrating when reading through forums. I am used to using forums, scrolling down, selecting an article to read and then returning to the point in the 'stack' that I left by using a browser 'back' button. However, on the BOARD forum, I will scroll through a forum and select an article to read.…

Cube Title as a Combobox
When I view the structure and versions of a cube, the text box can be changed to change the name of the cube. This is helpful when setting up new cubes, but doesn’t facilitate reviewing multiple cubes quickly. I would like to see a selection arrow at the right end of the text box that allows a user to select a different…

Drill Peek
When navigating a grid dataset, we already have the option to make each cell a button. From that button, we can drill to a screen or protocol for more information. Doing so opens the target in either the same tab or a new tab, changing the focus to the new screen. I think it would be nice to provide a peak tool, such that…

Number scaling available for the screen
Number scaling is available for dataview object (will be available for graphs in 14 version). It would be great to be able to associate this functionality with the screen directly, whatever the objects present on this screen, and thus benefit from it for each of the objects visible on the screen.

Excel - Export multiple selection
When we select more than 12 members in an axis, these are not displayed , only the selected number out of the total number. This may make sense in the application (as space would quickly run out to display them all), but could we have the entire selection exported in Excel ? There is more space to display all of them in…

Dynamic select for Fiscal Year to date

FlexGrid - Add more settings to the embedded charts
The embedded charts in FlexGrid are still very limited. It is therefore necessary to integrate the settings of these charts with the same functionality as the chart object (or at least the main ones): Some reported issues from our customers: It is not possible to adjust/resize the X-axis labels in such a way to maximize…

Ability to enable data entry at groupings when hide totals row is enabled
Hi, we have a customer who's asking if we could enable data entry at a grouping level when multiple entities are by row when the total row within the grouping isn't enabled through the feature of hide totals row. Since there are multiple entities by row, it is proving to be a hassle to locate the total row for each…
