Filter by Column
It would really be useful to be able to filter by columns the same way we can filter by criteria on the row. "Show All" works in some cases but not all. Compounded by the fact that switch row columns is not available in HTML5, sometimes there is simply no workaround to have charts with more complex filtering…

Downtotals without grand total line
Hi everyone, As previously discussed in a forum thread with Gabriele Gallo and Paul Stegmann and in the Board support with Antonio Speca, I found myself several times in a situation where I needed downtotals in a layout, but wanted to hide the grand total line. Solutions already suggested: - disabling downtotals (not…

The functionality of "Insert new Row" is very useful and appreciated by clients (especially Bulgari Rome), when the end user need to create from scratch a new planning combination. It would be great to have the same functionality also in the web version.

Show grand total on top of dataview
Hi Community, more than once I have been asked by clients to display the Grand Total as the first row of a dataview. Since there is the option to change the horizontal alignment of the row totals (see screenshot below), maybe another option could be implemented to choose the location of the Grand Total? At least in larger…

Possibility to stop procedure without stopping service
I think all BOARD users would greatly appreciate a way to stop procedures without having to stop the service. Of course stopping the procedure immediately, not after the next step. We all know the situation where a procedure takes a long time, especially a data flow. In multi-database Environments (not only there), it…

Allow data entry with selection on layout
Hi Community Members, although I am quite aware of certain "known limitations", there is one huge wish for future versions: It is not so uncommon that layouts with data entry enabled should be restricted to certain entity members, while the rest of the screen should still show all of them. In order to achieve this, a…

Hi, the new impact analysis feature is great and improves work for developers in the Board environment a lot. Nevertheless we would appreciate a full metadata export functionality as it was available in the WinClient to allow developers to perform their own analysis if necessary. Please vote up! BR Sebastian

MAINTENANCE MODE
Hello, i usually find myself in this situation and was hoping this idea might be helpful for everyone * What is your idea? Create a “maintenance mode” in BOARD. As an environment (or capsule specific) setting, this method should allow the BOARD service to run and still be active, but redirect users to a page which displays…

Dynamic Selection within Layout

Visibility Property enhancement: "gone" element
The idea involves enhancing visibility property of objects by allowing the user to hide an object (through a flag) nately shifting all following ones upwards, just like in a standard css "display:none" property. This need comes from several requests recieved in order to easily be able to edit a dashboard by choosing which…

Copy/Paste Multiple Procedure Actions/Groups
I have often found that I've needed to build procedures with multiple groups that each hold five or six actions each. These actions have the same logic aside for a few small changes, such as five dataflows that use the same calculation but the destination cube is different for each one. It would be great to have the…

Fix Relationships - Ask are you sure prompt
In future releases of BOARD can we please prompt the user if they click on the Fix Relationships button, if they are sure to run this procedure. I have had a few situations arise where this has been clicked by mistake, or out of curiosity, and then the maximum number of entities issue as occurred.

[Cloud] Automated backup of capsules
Currently you can only manually backup capsule in Cloud! It's a mandatory feature since: * in production * in development, you can loose work in progress due to user mistake or lack of synchronization between developer . Also manually back up a project with more than 10 capsules every day is tedious and unrealistic to ask.

Beautiful Geomaps
Overview The existing GeoMap tool works well. It does the job of visualizing data on a map, but it's not beautiful. The flexibility and analytics provided in BOARD with respect to time analytics is great. I think it's time to improve the GeoMap tool to keep pace with other offerings. Features * Shape Datatype - Keyhold…

Enrich dataview formatting options to approach IBCS® standards
1. What is your idea? Enrich the dataview's format settings. In particular the block-specific #format settings of a layout. Currently, the several formatting options I know are : * use row templates for the ByRow entities * use block formatting options (Dataview Menu > Layout > Block configuration > Format): I can set…

Previous Selection
Hi all, have you also come across the desire to go back to the previous selections? Okay, Board will let you reset the selection on a specific entity and then you can select something else or you can use a vertical list and click on another member. But how cool would it be to be able to go some steps back? Example: I am…

Error messages in layouts more explicit than "Oops"
Hi all, Context & issue: A few months ago, we implemented a limit on reports known as "Rows Upper Limit" to prevent users from overloading the system with too big queries (usually, addind all axis of a cube to extract everything to excel...). Due to this limit, sometimes the users have a "Oops" error in their layout, but…

Breakpoint & Procedure Debugger
Hi everybody, I'd like to share an idea for an improvement which will be helpful for Board consultants and developers.

Keep filenames within BLOB cubes
If a file is loaded within a BLOB cube, at the time of extraction it is renamed with a meaningless name. It would be nice not to rename the file. Especially for applications where several files are uploaded on BLOB cubes by multiple users.

Direct Data Entry into a Cube in a DynaWrite
I can currently enter data into an RTF cube that is used in a DynaWrite Layout, but this is only possible if I set up a data entry enabled DataView with the RTF cube (see Add Narrative below): I would like to be able to write my text directly into the data entry enabled cube in the DynaWrite (i.e. 'Project narrative',…

New Object: Process Mining Graph
Hi All, a while ago we at SDG have started to analyze business processes using system log files and different process mining tools.
