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…

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.

Allow parallel use of Board Web and Office AddIn
1. What is your idea? Allow parallel use of Board Web and the Board Office AddIn. If you try to do this in parallel (open up your browser and use Excel with other layouts), you will receive an error message ("logged in elsewhere"). 2. What specific problem are you trying to find a solution to, or what new scenario would…

Adding entity variables to pdf / printable export
Hey guys, I have customers that are exporting a lot of reports for their customer as well. So it would be good to write down the selected entities inside the name of the pdf file, so they dont have to do it all the time for themselves. Greetings Julian

Allow for the naming of files downloaded from Board
When a user clicks the download button, the downloaded file has a filename based on the screen title (I think). But could you please allow for the downloaded filename to be configured with variables. This would allow for the filename to be more meaningful.

Audit/Record changes to procedures / lines
As an on-going maintenance task, we frequently have to modify procedures (add more lines, modify existing, disable lines, etc.) It would be nice if (upon saving) the username/timestamp and action is recorded against each line (e.g. added, disabled, modified, etc). This can be used, in part as a version control mechanism.…

It could either be one big…

Enhance the DataView Layout SORT function
Currently DataView layouts can only sort by ONE block/entity. It would be helpful to be able to apply a sort using several blocks.
