Unbalanced Hierarchies - Allowing "selection mode" configuration in dataflow and export

Expand datareader edit window in Board 14
The edit window for datareader in Board 14 is way too narrow. Currently it is nearly impossible to fully identify cubes, SQL table names or column names on a regular screen. The edit window for datareader should be just as wide as the pop up which opens when creating a new datareader:

Quick preview of the data in a cube

Use Cube groups for Cube Visibility settings
Hi, Cube visibility is a great feature that we are starting to implement with customers. However, the setup of every single cube is a very time-consuming and maintenance-heavy operation especially in larger databases with hundreds of cubes. One tool that would greatly help in that area would be the possibility to set up…

B14 - Less clicks, less blocking popups
Board 14 requires in some parts too many clicks which slows down the process working with e.g. the data model. An example - Adding an entity: B12: +Entity (1st click), Save Changes (2nd click), Next Entity … B14: + (1st click), Entity (2nd click), Create (3rd click), Wait approx. 3,5s for Popup to disappear, Close (4th…

Standard "integrated" copy function for e.g., Versions, Scenarios etc.
Hi all, it would be great to have a integrated copy function. Use Case: During a planning cycle we want to copy a Version 1 into a Version 2 (Entity in a Cube). Therefore, we have to create a procedure, define temporary cubes without the entity Version, add for nearly each cube a step with temporary cube not dimensioned…

Time Function "End of Period Value"
There's been a forum post or two about extracting period (week/month/year) end values for inventory similar purposes in the community, and I've just come across the issue again in a current development...and I just had the idea of what not add a time function for this? Currently if we have data recorded by day (or month)…

Description field for Cubes and Entities
In the datamodel, there should be a field "description" for each cube and entity. This would help documenting the purpose of each cube and entity. This would help the maintenance and the transfer of knowledge. for any developer, the good practice is to write comments in the code. This should be the same for Board:…

Line by Line comparison of Procedures (Capsule and Data Model) across servers
Currently there is no way to compare if the procedures line by line in our development system and production system are the same or what has changed. The only thing that capsule snapshot or data model snapshot comparison does is it tells us there is a difference but does not tell what specifically is different. This is…

Show Message - Yes/No Option
Hi there! I think it would be really useful to be able to change the text in the Yes/No option. It can be Yes/No by default, but maybe you can add a way to customise it. An example would be this: It would also be great to change the colour of the button (not always blue).

Easier management of RULES
Often we need to delegate the management of the RULES to some User. In order to make it easier, it could be helpful to have a way to access and edit the RULES w/o accessing to the related DB area. Just for example, this can be solved using a standard Board Report (see below) where the RULE can be visualized and/or defined,…

Temporary Cube in use y/n
Hi team, It would be a great advantage if the information as to whether a temporary cube is used in a procedure or not were directly available in the definition window. During the development phase, a number of temporary cubes are created and only some of these are still needed at the time of deployment. If the above…

Visible cube content
It would be great if we can check cube content in a tabular format, using a standard built-in function. Now we have to go through all the steps: 1) create a screen, 2) drag a dataview component, 3) setup the layout, just to check the cube content.

Block format versus Row template priority management
Hi, Today the rule to manage priority between "Block Format" and "Row Template" is the following : It's important to understand the order in which Board applies formatting styles to the Data View, as this sequence determines how it will appear to the end user. First, the default Data View style is applied, then the style…

Raise the limit of Custom Time Entities on Time Range
Main Idea: Today, the number of Custom Time Entities is limited to 4. My idea would be to raise this limit number to at least 10. It would be great to have no limit, if possible. The last project I worked on lasted 40 days. If I had a free custom time entity, I could have saved around 3 to 4 days of work, which is a…
