Usage of Temporary Cubes in Procedures for Selections

Information policy needs to be improved / Share information about upcoming BOARD versions
Federica Antonelli, Leone Scaburri, Fabio Donatellis In general it would be helpful to get more and above all faster information about changes and upcoming features / releases. For example: a document by Antonio Speca was published for all Boardville 2018 participants ("The way to B11.pdf"). This could be a very useful…

Improvements 10.5.1/ Board 11.1 Web
Hello together, we worked now a lot with the webclient to configure our existing capsules. Following improvements would be great: - shortcut CTRL+Z to undo something - move objects with the arrows of the keyboard - view of the screen is to small in editing mode (would be great if you could unlock the panels) - it would be…

Rich text box with a character limit please
Currently there are two choices, either a text field where the user can enter some plain text or a rich text box that creates an RTF. Could we have an RTF text box with controls on the number of characters the user can enter. For example, as the admin I’d decide to limit a text box to 4000 characters. The user would enter…

DATA - hide/show all columns
We do have some data views with a lot of columns (>30) - many users often need to hide columns via function "data" - but it's very time consuming if the first need to hide each single column with clicking on the eye - at least when they only want to have e.g. 1 or two columns in the dataview from the 30. For this purpose…

Massive reporting: export looping through entity items
A common challenge using Board is to export from Board to other media formats (like pdf, xlsx, pptx, ...) especially when the output must be "one file per each item of an entity". Call it a loop through entity items or "massive reporting". When setting print options in the Board screen it's possible to use "paged by…

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

Possibility to align charts by the position of their axes
1. What is your idea? It would be most helpful if charts could be aligned according to their axes. 2. What specific problem are you trying to find a solution to, or what new scenario would this idea respond to? For example, charts that stand below one another could be aligned on their y-axes; charts that stand next to one…

Personalized Selectors
Hi All! During yesterday’s awesome Board 11 demonstration (thumbs up, by the way!) we were shown how you can easily choose attributes to filter cubes and entities in the new web-based database designer. Adding a similar function for the non-admin users to use in a capsule would make working with Board even more flexible.…

Pending Data Entry alert message in Web Client
When working from Web Client no question is made,so the user goes to another screen and loses all modified data. If the user enters a data entry but forgets to save it,I wants to display a warning message about saving the pending data entry. I think it is necessary when you continue to enter data.

PAGER - Security Flaw
IDEA Suppress max number of members displayed to a given sub-group when using PAGER object I would like to suggest that the PAGER object be changed to also show only the max number of members of a given sub-group and not only the max number of members within the entity. Explanation. I have found that the pager object…

Online Users screen improvements - limited usefulness now
1. What is your idea? * Add AM/PM to the load login column * Correct the Online Column (it is incorrect, showing users not logged in) * Correct Last Logout column (it is incorrect) * Correct the Last Operation column (it is incorrect, all users show a last operation time within a minute of the refresh) 2. What specific…

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

Format "GroupBy"
It would be nice to have the same format in the "groupby" as it is defined in the block. The total cell doesn't keep the format (colour for example) set in the block, it's a shame.

Drill down in web in flattened mode
Hi all, For excel export reasons (see Export Data to Excel in Flattening mode for Web client ) I built a layout using the flattened presentation, with 2 entities by row (Legal Entity then Material). Before using the flattened option, I could drill down by clicking on my Material entity. Now that it's flattened, I can drill…

Export as Picture/Image
Provide the ability to also select 'Picture' (or PNG, JPG) when exporting from BOARD via a procedure BOARD currently allows you to export as PDF/PPT/DOC/XLS from a procedure, and also has these option when setting up a BLOB cube, but BLOB cubes also allow for pictures (in 10.5 at least), however BOARD doesn't allow you to…

Interactive Selection with nothing selected
In Board 10.3 Web: the behavior of the Interactive Selection is now coherent with the Selector's https://help.board.com/Board_10.3.0.50924_Release_Notes.htm The problem with the above implementation for our use case are: * As we limit what the user can select in the Interactive Selection, all the entities displayed are now…

Add native Excel Datareader functionnality
Today to read an Excel file you can either create a ODBC connection or save it as CSV. The idea is to add the native abiliy to create a datareader to an Excel Sheet, like it exist in other tools so that you just have to select the file to upload it.
-
Folders Access Rights on the Cloud
Currently, the security of the shared storage of Board Cloud is not managed. Anybody who has access to the link generated has access to all folders & files. The idea is to manage access rights by folders like in Windows on the shared data storage to allow users to have access to the data they want to post.

Enable Profile Image Upload
Board 11 continues (see previous thread) to only allow web-link images for users' profile photos/avatar. It would be helpful to also enable images to be uploaded from windows explorer (any drive). Regards Mike

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…

Option to hide Screen Name in HTML 5 Browser
In the Web browser the name of the BOARD screen is always displayed at the top of the browser screen, in a lot of cases you may have a long screen name or maybe you have a screen naming convention that is a bit 'Ugly' to look at. It would be great if there would be an option to hide the screen name. Interested to hear the…

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…

DataViews with dynamic column width
Currently, a fix column width needs to be set in order to display the largest number in a data view. If this is not properly set some digits are hidden, misleading the users. However, the largest number possibly displayed can change a lot based on the screen selection. Therefore, a large column width needs to be set to…

Data View Columns Width faster configuration
The data view columns width is set 120 as default and adjust columns width sometimes is not "comfortable". Especially in large data view some options may be useful: - set a different default width and an option to apply it to all blocks or to selected ones. - have a shortcut key to open the width config panel (e.g. CTRL+W)…

Identify procedures that utilise a cube
The existing Search functionality in capsules can be utilised to easily identify usage of a cube in screens and capsules.. However, the search does not return any results for use within a procedure or data reader. This functionality will be very useful when trying to identify how and which procedures or data readers update…

Make visible "by row" and "show all" option in Dataflow
As you might have noticed, dataflow behave differently if you create the layout directly or you copy it from and existing report having sometihing by row and flag show all set. Would be nice to have it visible directly in dataflow configuration instead of setting/viewing it only when you copy and paste back to a report. I…
