Multiple installs of Office Add-in
Is it possible to have multiple versions of the Office Add-in installed? As a BOARD partner and Certified MS Excel experts we are often asked to help our BOARD clients develop Excel based reports utilising the Office Add-in.

Log track of entities saturation and in case the MaxItem is reached
In B12 when the Max Item saturation is reached, Board gives no alert even if Data Readers fails to load data due to the impossibility to add new members. It would be nice to have this error and also to have it tracked in the logs (such as Data reader failure etc). Also having the saturation information monitored in some…

Copy of BLOB Cubes in DataFlows
Hi All, at the moment it is not possible to copy blob Cubes in dataflows. It would be great when a simple copy of BLOB Cubes in DataFlow would be possible. It also would be great if the target BLOB Cube could have some more or leass dimensions than the source BLOB Cube. Regards, FabFro

Interactive selections: adding a text
My idea concerns interactive selections. Indeed, in the actual system, it is not possible to specify anything as a sentence to guide users as we want them to check data. Thus, what I thought would be nice to add to the software is : the possibility to write a sentence just above the data proposed. In this way, if we want…

Excel Add-in
Hi everyone, we installed the add-in for excel and everything is working fine but there is something quite annoying. When you connect to BOARD via the Excel add-in, it automatically disconnect you from BOARD it self. When we come back to it, it will show us an error saying we are already connected (obviously via Excel) Is…

Add all entities to the Quick Layout?
Hello, Is there a way to add all entities, used in the related cubes, to the Quick Layout? So far I have only managed to add one entity at the time. This gets very time consuming when you have many Data Views. I saw a post in the Idea Exchange, suggesting the possibility to add the entity hierarchy. That would also save…

Format "GroupBy"
It would be nice to have the same format in the "groupby" as it is defined in the block. The total cell doesn't keep the format (colour for example) set in the block, it's a shame.

Drill down in web in flattened mode
Hi all, For excel export reasons (see Export Data to Excel in Flattening mode for Web client ) I built a layout using the flattened presentation, with 2 entities by row (Legal Entity then Material). Before using the flattened option, I could drill down by clicking on my Material entity. Now that it's flattened, I can drill…

Export as Picture/Image
Provide the ability to also select 'Picture' (or PNG, JPG) when exporting from BOARD via a procedure BOARD currently allows you to export as PDF/PPT/DOC/XLS from a procedure, and also has these option when setting up a BLOB cube, but BLOB cubes also allow for pictures (in 10.5 at least), however BOARD doesn't allow you to…

Add native Excel Datareader functionnality
Today to read an Excel file you can either create a ODBC connection or save it as CSV. The idea is to add the native abiliy to create a datareader to an Excel Sheet, like it exist in other tools so that you just have to select the file to upload it.

Folders Access Rights on the Cloud
Currently, the security of the shared storage of Board Cloud is not managed. Anybody who has access to the link generated has access to all folders & files. The idea is to manage access rights by folders like in Windows on the shared data storage to allow users to have access to the data they want to post.

Enable Profile Image Upload
Board 11 continues (see previous thread) to only allow web-link images for users' profile photos/avatar. It would be helpful to also enable images to be uploaded from windows explorer (any drive). Regards Mike

Allow Reverse Algorithm on a TEXT algorithm
Currently you can only populate a text cube via a reverse algorithm if the algorithm is numeric. This seems somewhat pointless as we have numeric cubes for these. What would be more useful is being able to apply a reverse algorithm on a text algorithm into a text cube. It doesn't come up often, but the workaround to get…

Option to hide Screen Name in HTML 5 Browser
In the Web browser the name of the BOARD screen is always displayed at the top of the browser screen, in a lot of cases you may have a long screen name or maybe you have a screen naming convention that is a bit 'Ugly' to look at. It would be great if there would be an option to hide the screen name. Interested to hear the…

Improve the Selector display used within a procedure
When performing data input over the web, we're triggering procedures relying on the "Interactive selection" feature. When the selector pop-up is displayed, it always shows the "code + description" of the entity member, which is, in a data entry user point of view, sometimes not convenient. Technically speaking, we'd like…

Drill down in maps
Would it be possible for data that is being displayed in a map object to be distributed to a lower level of detail as you zoom on a map. Say for example, my Geography hierarchy is * Country * Region/State * City * Suburb/Postcode * Street Currently you would need Lat/Long cubes for each level in this hierarchy and 5 map…

DataViews with dynamic column width
Currently, a fix column width needs to be set in order to display the largest number in a data view. If this is not properly set some digits are hidden, misleading the users. However, the largest number possibly displayed can change a lot based on the screen selection. Therefore, a large column width needs to be set to…

Data View Columns Width faster configuration
The data view columns width is set 120 as default and adjust columns width sometimes is not "comfortable". Especially in large data view some options may be useful: - set a different default width and an option to apply it to all blocks or to selected ones. - have a shortcut key to open the width config panel (e.g. CTRL+W)…
