Object names for Panel & Tab
In the Screens Object list, it would be helpful if you could see the name of the Panel & Tab. In this case, to figure out which Panel you want to work with, you would need to count the panels to figure out its position. Linking the Panel/Tab name would be helpful.

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.

Add ability to multi-select columns in Block Format
Block formatting individual columns is a very time consuming job, and this would allow you to speed up the process a lot faster. You can currently multi select on the different rows, but it'd be very beneficial to CTRL+Left Click on the columns to format them together too. There are data views with over 100+ columns here…

Scheduled Capsule Backup to Z Drive
Hi All, I understood from support it is now possible to schedule snapshot of capsules in Board but still it is not possible to create scheduled capsule backups to the Azure Z drive. I would like to propose to have the possibility to create a procedure that performs capsule backups to the Z drive as this is the place where…

REST API call connection timeout
Currently REST API calls are using a "fixed" connection timeout of 100s. If connection to the endpoint is not established within this time limit, the call is ended. It would be great if the timeout could be extended/paramterized.
-
Possibility to schedule a task several time par day
Today the lowest level of recurrence for a scheduled task is the day, so it is quite hard and boring to schedule a task every hour, or every 15 minutes for ex. It would be great to have the possibility to schedule a task several time par day.

Default Formatting for Dataviews and Other Objects
Hello, It would be great if we could set the default formatting for toolkit objects just like we used to have in the windows client with the corporate identity designer. Right now we have to copy/paste every single time which isn't centrally managed and leads to inconsistencies.

Add option to set all 'Modes' in a Data Reader to 'Add New Item' automatically
Hi, I think it'd be useful and efficient a have a button to switch all the modes automatically from 'Discard New Item'/'Read' to 'Add New Item'/'Replace'. This would be very useful in new data models or when loading a new entity/hierarchy as you do not have to manually change the mode for each field area in the data…

Add pop up button that directs to data reader steps in procedures
Hi, I was wondering if we could please add a button similar to the "call procedure" step which links to and directs the user to the procedure that is being called for the data reader steps. The proposed button would look something like this and would open a new page that links directly to the data reader that is being read…

It would be helful have same function from panels Role, features and folder securities have also the capability to schedul an expot of such files (not only manual export) Or have the capabillity to collect all these information through an API…

Adding Metadata to Cubes
It would be great if we could add meta data to the cube Name: Same as today Descr: A description, for example "Actuals", "FTE"….. The description is currently not always same as cube name and I then have to change in all data views - if instead we could pick up the description we would be sure to use the same description…

Resize Columns in ETL Tab of Data Readers
Maybe we are unique in having a field that is very long, but having the ability to manually change the width of columns in the ETL would be fantastic. We have different combinations of materials that can go into our goods, all depending on what has been ordered. In order to make this happen and price things appropriately,…

Waterfall chart - hide variances that equal 0
Hello everyone, I have that issue in Board to be able to compare 2 datasets with a waterfall chart: if I want to have only the non null variances appearing and try to filter on those, it also changes the totals for by beginning block and ending block. For example in the waterfall chart below, I put a filter on all non null…

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…

Defining Temporary cubes "on the fly"
When I write a procedure, I find it tedious to define a temporary cube when I want to implement/change a data flow. In particular I dislike that I have to leave the procedure, define the temporary cube and open the procedure again. Please implement the following feature: In the window where one can define a new data flow…

Button: add rollover color for Font
Hi, simple as that: as you could change the rollover color for the background of a button already, it would be great to also add rollover colors for the text / font. This would help avoid using several layers for the same effect. Thanks! Mads

metadata-driven modeling with BAML (Board Application Markup Language)
This feature is inspired by BIML (Business Intelligence Markup Language). To develop a board-application you don’t need coding skills. That is really great for beginners! To develop a board-application is mostly to create or alter meta-data. For example create a new entity. Give them a name, group, id length, desc length…

Annotation of Entities, Cubes, Data Reader and other Database structures
I wish there was a way to annotate entities, cubes, data readers, and other database structures as there is for procedure steps. This would enrich the in-system documentation for developers and could eliminate the need for out-of-system technical documentation. Documentation would thus be made faster and more efficient.

Dynamic Decimals on report views
Hi team! We've recently had two customers and a partner reach out about the request to dynamically show or not show decimal places. Right now, it currently requires work arounds that involve layout adjustments or duplicated screens. We would like to request the ability to adjust the decimals we are viewing on a report…
-
copy procedure from one capsule to another
would be great if one could copy or save a procedure from one capsule to another where also temporary cubes are copied. That would massively simplify the copying or even moving of a procedure instead of recreating the procedure by copying the steps and re-creating the temporary cubes.
-
Tooltip by Column Header
It has been requested several times (as in for example our most latest POC by BASF) to have the possibility to have a tooltip in the header of a block or column. This is a common practice in people that use excel since it helps understand what is within that column. Currently this can be done via a label with a tooltip…

Hide Screen List configurable depending on users
hide screen list options is a ON/OFF option it could be useful have the capability to deactivate it for some users (e.g. administrators or process owners for an application). It could be made on different levels: as default, in security profile settings (e.g for administrators) at capsule level, defining exceptions on some…

Multiple attributes per entity member, in addition to code and description
It would be helpful if, in addition to the code and description, other attributes could be used for each entity member to increase flexibility in displaying the labels in reports.

Log files for 'Reload all cubes'
Hi, when cleaning up Entities and removing deprecated members, it would be really useful if you could activate logging of rejected records in the procedure step reload all cubes. Without this feature you need to manually create data readers and manually check tons of files to find out why the records got rejected Kind…

"Min" and "Max" as aggregation-functions
It would be very helpful to be able to select "Min" and "Max" as aggregation-functions on an entity, in addition to the existing "distinct count", "average" and "sum" (see second screenshot). Right now it is possible to display the min- and max-values as a row total (see lower dataview in the first screenshot), but not if…

Enable capsule security the same way we now have Folder security
Problem When users enter the Board main page, they would like to see all the capsules that they have access to in one place. These capsule cards can be customized nicely to show some preliminary information using sparkline/footer, they can be color coded, have backgrounds and icons. However, now, if we want to make sure…

Ability to set the color of background of the value on a card
Currently the background color can be set for all elements except for the background where the value is shown. This does not allow for the card to be to fully formatted to the company branding, as shown with the white box around the number. My client would like to set this to transparent. While this can be achieved with a…

Deleting entity elements made easy
There is already a guide on "How to remove obsolete entity members". However, this process should be much easier. It would be great if entity members can be deleted easily by hand. Especially, in big databases that would be a huge relief because it wouldn't be necessary to reload the entity and cubes. As a bonus, it would…
