display existing procedure's name while renaming it
1. What is your idea? Simplify a small task that happens sometimes : renaming existing procedures. Currently the procedure's name is always empty when I click on "rename" I wish the existing name of the procedure would be displayed, so I can directly amend it. 2. What specific problem are you trying to find a solution to,…

Interactive selection - Option to display Code/Description or both
Hi, Currently, the "interactive selection" procedure step displays code and description on the pop-up window. It would be nice to have the option to choose (at procedure level) to display either Code, Description or both (similarly to how the Selectors work).

Nexel Enhancement - "Auto update algorithms"
Hi fellow community members! Question: Are you using Nexel for planning screens and did you notice that changing the order of blocks in the data layout will not be reflected in the Nexel-formulas? The consequence is, that every layout change will require adjustment of the Nexel-formulas and that can become quite tiresome.…

Copy of BLOB Cubes in DataFlows
Hi All, at the moment it is not possible to copy blob Cubes in dataflows. It would be great when a simple copy of BLOB Cubes in DataFlow would be possible. It also would be great if the target BLOB Cube could have some more or leass dimensions than the source BLOB Cube. Regards, FabFro

Show Message - Yes/No Option
Hi there! I think it would be really useful to be able to change the text in the Yes/No option. It can be Yes/No by default, but maybe you can add a way to customise it. An example would be this: It would also be great to change the colour of the button (not always blue).

Warning Message in the Board Application when Max Item number has reached
Hi Team, could we have some sort of a warning message or a notification (in the Board application UI) when any of the entities are at 100% or have crossed the 100% saturation. There have been instances in projects when the entities have crossed beyond 100% like at 120% and the implementation team or the users are unaware…

Notify if max item number reached
In desktop client, there used to be a pop-up message appearing in case a max item number was reached and that the Administrator was to be contacted. It would be great if some kind of notification would show up also in web (without the need to access the proper Relationships page), because if noone accesses the…

UBH - Using dependancies in Procedures
Dear all, Since the integration of UnBalanced Hierarchies, a world opened to us! Including the dependancies selections (Leaf, Descendants, children, etc…) of the UBH in a DataView. However, these dependancies can NOT be used in Procedures. It could be usefull to easily calculate the weight of a member Vs its direct parent.…

Unload Database procedure step
Hi Team, with our Customer we are facing the following challenge: We are implementing the multi language feature across several Databases. Everytime we receive new description texts, an unload of the database is necessary for the new descriptions to come into effect. Currently there is no structured approach to do this in…

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…

@Selection on Blocks
One of the major issues we have with trend based dataviews and charts is having to use CY, CY-1, etc for current year and current year -1. This is very annoying to end users and causes us to "hard code" the years into the block header, meaning all reports must be updated each year, month etc. when we use block references…

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.

Enhancing User experience with the Bubble Chart object
Hi all, apart from my idea of keeping the dimensional colours in the bubble chart object I would like to make a few suggestions on enhancing user experience with the bubble chart. 1. Give the developer the possibility to change not only the chart's background as a whole, but make it possible to change the colour/label for…

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…

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…

"Hide Based On" in Layout block
Similar to the 'Locked by' option within a block, it would be handy if we also had the ability to 'Hide based on' for a block. So that if the 'based on' block is 1 this block would be hidden (as opposed to 'locked'). This would enable for a more simple hide/show of blocks in a dataview etc. This can already be done with…

Improving security management through easier maintenance of profiles
Hi everyone, As I already discussed with some of our Board France friends (Andrea Masiero especially), I found that Board is missing some key features in terms of security management. Some of them have workarounds through the so-called "Tilde Database" system, but this is not usable for all customers and it was not usable…

Increase max Number of Cubes
Hi, in BOARD you can create max. 999 Cubes, which is enogh in many projects. But we're facing the problem, that in some bigger Projects we're using a lot tec-Cubes and so it is sometimes hard to be within this limit.So it would be great, if this limits get extended in a future release. Examples for Tec-Cubes (mostly driven…

Binary Cube
Hello, there are many situation where a cube is used to "flag" a certain on/off condition (like SBO, dynamic select, matrix cubes, etc). In most cases people are using integer cubes for this (in B10 a integer cube was 2byte per cell, in b12 it is 8byte per cell). From application point of view one bit (so true or false) is…

One possibility is to extract the data from the planning databases into a CSV and read it back into the reporting database. Request: It would be nice to have a function…

MIN, MAX and Last Value in summary settings
When in a layout it would be great to have an option in the drop down for Last Value, Min and Max when looking at sub-totals. When we look at a rolling balance of inventory or finances, sometimes seeing the flow by week and then into month it would make sense to see the last value. Currently we can show total, average or…

Smart Import Enhancement
The last releases contained a lot of news about the Smart Import Object. The functions that the object now brings with it are great. Still, I would like to see two more features: moving columns (without having to rename and remap columns every time a new column is added in between. if rows are rejected, it would be great…

Moving elements with the arrows on the keyboard
Hi! I think it would make screen design much easier if you could move the elements with the arrows on the keyboard, maybe to adjust the final pixels you need the side panel, but for the initial design it's much easier than with the mouse.

Administration: More management options for all users presentations
It would be good for us as administrators if we had more management options for all users' presentations. E.g. an overview page showing which presentations are available and with whom they were all shared, if necessary the possibility to change assignments here as well. As a current workaround, we register on behalf of the…

Export Cube / Entity View to Excel
Hey, after adding the feature "Export Impact Analysis data to Excel" in version 12.3 it would be great to have a similar functionality for the Cube View and Entity View in the Data Model section. In my opinion this would make documentations way more easier especially for big data models. Kind regards Thomas
