Improvement of layout configuration - structure defintion for rows and columns
Hello community, in our reporting process we are usually - in a "standard data view setup" - using the "Key-Figure-Entity" that is displayed by row.

Export to XLSX - Overcome limitations of layout export with huge datasets
Idea: We use the export functionality of Board intensively.

Allow Temporary Cubes to be used in If Then Else action
Quite often specific cubes are created to hold the results of a logical test that can be performed through dataflow. This cube would then be used in an If The Else procedure action to determine the actions to run based on the outcome of the test. Currently, the If Then Else action cannot use temporary cubes saved in the…

Massive reporting: export looping through entity items

Database security: Cube visibility
In the "Database Security" section, we have noticed that if we use cube visibility to define user action perimeters, it works everywhere except in dataflows. This behavior, despite being documented in the manual, seems quite illogical because if the functionality helps in profiling security profiles in a faster and more…
