new object ADVANCED TIME SELECTOR
Idea: Add an object called “Advanced Time Selector”. This object is composed by 3 parts: the “standard selector”, the “dynamic selector” and the “calendar”, offering to user a flexible way to apply selections on time entities. Optionally the developer can choose to activate desired part. It appears like a normal selector,…

ciao, sometimes the Board Administrator need to check whihc are the databases currently uploaded in RAM and/or the list of the "pending changes" for a specific database. currently these informations are in the "Logs" section BUT in big environments, with a lot of users/actions, you could have a lot of logs for the standard…

Rest API call manual script
With the new 'Rest API call' action, it is possible to connect and download data from a public or authorized API into a CSV/JSON file through a list of mapped parameters. Even though, you have the possibility to see how the query has been structured in the 12.6 release, you cannot edit it. It could be useful to interact…

Include Version Number in Release Notes
Hello, Currently, on patch release notes the only reference within them is "Summer Release 2023", "Spring Release 2022", etc. However, within the product itself - we only have version numbers. Ie 12.4. Would it be possible to include the version number in the announcement title of the BOARD Manual? Example: never mentions…

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…

change table/dataview from pivot to flat list
We are regularly getting the question from users if it's possible to change the standard BOARD pivoted table to a flat list. I know this functionality also from other BI-Tools and it would be great if the user can decide via dataview-menu if he wants to have a flat list shown. Default can be still the pivoted view, but the…

Close Message Option
It would be great if the option existed to close the informative Board messages that appear on the screen (example below). Although they only appear for 3-4 seconds, it can be frustrating when trying to work quickly as sometimes the next button you want to click is behind this message. It would be helpful to be able to…

Improve Board in Spanish language
Hello, Current Board in Spanish (especially anything for power users and admins) has some very low quality translations and some very confusing terms. We have some important clients that use Board in Spanish and request an improvement of the translations.

Column sorting and filtering for the end user
Hi, it is often the case that Board replaces a previous Excel solution. In Excel there is the useful function that a filter can be placed over the columns with the help of which the user can sort in ascending or descending order. He or she can also set value filters there, for example, that only rows larger > or smaller <…

Sorting Rows - Keep Top setting for more than one dimension
We have several requirements with keep top setting AND showing more that one dimension in the dataview. It seems like this function only works as long as there is only one dimension in the rows. E.g. I'd like to have the Top 25 Materials sorted on Sales-Cube desc. on a material level - and as second information I would…

Enhance user experience by adding search functionality
Sometimes, when working with databases providing more than just a couple cubes or entities, finding the cube or entity you're looking for in the drop-down lists can be pretty cumbersome when no search function is available. Consider this example from the action library for calling a procedure If, however, developers would…

What specific problem are you trying to find a solution to, or what new scenario would this idea respond to? Independent from the current time selection, I want to display…

Database profile - Avoid reload of database
Dear all, The database is systematically reloaded after a DB profile modification / creation. On my side I have a very huge DB (160 Gb) and reloading the DB takes a long time (about 20 minutes) and freezes the Board server for end users. So when you have several profiles to modify, we are blocking users for a long time. It…

Turn off automatic search in name search in Entities/Cubes list
1. What is your idea? Currently when you search name in entities/cubes screen, if you start to type name in the search field, Board search name and filter the list immediately. It would be good if we can turn off this automatic search and search will be triiger after pushing enter key. 2. What specific problem are you…

Entity format with multiple entities within a dataview
There are situations when the customer asks for entity format to be applied when there are multiple entities by rows (for example parents of an entity or groupings of different ones). As we all know, the entity formatting works only when we have a single entity by row, and the moment another entity is added there is a…

Cube description

Presentations - Folder-Structure / Categorization
As we are having already a lot of Presentations in use, it would be great to have a possibility for structuring Presentation via Folders, Categories, Tags or similiar. Currently they are all in one list, which is getting soon very confusing. Also a search function would be great.

Monitor sparsity in B12
Hi, It would be good to have a section to monitor sparsity in B12 (in particular in the Cloud) - like we use to have in B10. Monitoring by cube, as currently available, is not efficient. Thanks. Bests, Quentin

(Git) Versioncontrol of Board-Database-Schema
Problem to solve Currently, it is a difficult task to carefully document a database schema. Often this task is postponed until later or is completely forgotten. Even if there is documentation, it is often not available centrally in one place for all project participants, but distributed in different places with different…

Block(s) copy in layout/dataview
1) Copy&Paste a block is really usefull because configure each one is really wasted time comsuming (ReferTo, TimeFunctions, Format, etc...) as it is possible in Desktop client. 2) Also, copy&Paste block format would save lot of time 3) As now it is possible to copy&paste several steps in a procedure, why it is not…

Create an overview for all available presentations
Hi all, It would be very helpful if there was an option to view all current presentations on the Board Server and who are the users of this presentation. We are preparing to enable SSO login for all users in combination with the subscription hub. But because we need to create new users, they lose their access to the…

Entity Search
When using a "selector" or "detailed by" in a layout there is no real search function for the entities. Also, the drop down field showing the entities is very small showing only around 6 entities. It would be much more user friendly if everywhere the "search" function is used as in the procedure.

Hierarchy of entities in the select tab
Hi all, I highly suggest to change the views of the select (by screen). Now it is by design so users can’t see the hierarchy of entities like in relationships section. It would be great to open the select in the screen and see the real hierarchy and not seeing entity by design. Thanks! Valentina

Tables expand dynamically to fit screen
1) What is your idea? Enable all Board elements and screens to expand dynamically to fill a user's screen based on their screen resolution rather than having, for example, tables as isolated elements with their own navigation. 2) What specific problem are you trying to resolve? Tables and other Board elements only take up…

The current status of users is as follows. ?It takes a minute and a half to change only one entity. ?Scheduled to change once a month ?There are about 10 profiles and manage 12 entities. The user planned to refine the profile to about 100, but…

Add block specific selection ability
Hello, currently with the web solution, we can apply selections for the screen and within the layout of a data view. However, all selections are applied to all blocks of the layout. Because of that, it is very complicated to design a data view with showing actuals, a current forecast and / or plan periods. Especially if I…

Make the Portal time format work even if the server is using 12h time format
Currently all logged events in "operating system events" shows the wrong time half of the day. If a failed login attempt happens at 2pm it shows as 02:00:00 in the web portal. This is a bug and not really an improvement suggestion, but Board support told me to register it as an idea here anyway.
