An Extended version of the Board Substitution Formulas
Board offers a diverse array of functionalities and features, positioning it in a prominent and distinctive position within the competitive landscape that spans both Business Intelligence (BI) and Corporate Performance Management (CPM). One of the standout features that distinguishes Board is its Substitutions Formulas,…
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.
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…
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.
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…
Probably The Best Alternative to CSV Storage: Parquet Data
1. What is your idea? Board support a lot of datasources. Probably the most used are csv files. However, with ever increasing amounts of data, working with csv files becomes a pain. Parquet files can be an alternative. Head-to-head comparison CSV Parquet Row-based storage format. A hybrid of Row-based and column-based…
Administration: More management options for all users presentations
It would be good for us as administrators if we had more management options for all users' presentations. E.g. an overview page showing which presentations are available and with whom they were all shared, if necessary the possibility to change assignments here as well. As a current workaround, we register on behalf of the…
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.
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.
Share bookmarks with other users
it would be great if there is a possibility to share bookmarks with other users (similiar to share function in presentations)
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…
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.
Load information about users config from sub hub, roles, folder security
currently from SubHub I can extract a .csv file with main users information. 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…
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…
"Others" Automatically Grouped When Using Keep Top Function
Hello Community, i like using TOP/FLOP analyses and in many Customers i have implemented BOARD solutions i have come across the following need * What is your idea? When defining the Keep Top option, we usually highlight the top or worst performers based on one or multiple factors. This usually leads to “hiding” the “rest”…
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…
Smart Import Enhancement
The last releases contained a lot of news about the Smart Import Object. The functions that the object now brings with it are great. Still, I would like to see two more features: moving columns (without having to rename and remap columns every time a new column is added in between. if rows are rejected, it would be great…
Audit/Record changes to procedures / lines
As an on-going maintenance task, we frequently have to modify procedures (add more lines, modify existing, disable lines, etc.) It would be nice if (upon saving) the username/timestamp and action is recorded against each line (e.g. added, disabled, modified, etc). This can be used, in part as a version control mechanism.…
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.
Selector : Add Exclude option in pop-up mode
Currently, with a selector in vertical mode users have the choice to change the "selection mode" from Include to Exclude : However, for a selector in pop-up the Exclude option isn't available : Unlike in the screen selector : It would be nice to have the Exclude option added to Selector in pop-up mode as in screen…
Step call procedure: deactivate checkboxes to copy current selections (back) by default
Minor idea: when creating a new procedure step "call procedure" the two checkboxes to copy current select / copy back current select are active by default. I have often seen both checkboxes activated in applications and quite often it turned out they have no purpose - the developer simply did not think whether it´s…
Interactive Select Option
SCENARIO: We have a procedure to navigate from the home screen to a planning screen. Before the "go to screen" step, there are several selections that are required to ensure the screen opens with the desired information / planning detail level. Some of the selections are made using a simple interactive select, others are…
"Refresh-Layout - Button" for Presentations
We switched by end of last week to the 12.5. Version, which brought the number scaling functionality. As a workaround we used in the last 2 years a TEC_Divisior-Entity which enabled us already to have a kind of number scaling feature —> BUT: every DataView contained a lot of blocks just for making this possible. With the…
Data Model object comments
For Data Model objects it would be informative to have to possibility to add comments and notes. For example a Procedure, under “Options” or a new tab, give the developer the possibility to write comments i.e. the purpose of the procedure, when it was last updated, who created/updated it. It could either be one big…
Add "On Error go to group" feature to SQL / Text / SAP connector data reader
The Rest API call has this nice feature that let you, in case of an error go to a group to hande the error more gracefully than “stop” It would be usefull to have have it on other object like SQL / Text / SAP connector data reader :
Restrict "Apply data selection" on "Go to screen..."
When navigating from a screen to another screen by using the action type “Go to screen…” on a label or a button, you can either check “Apply data selection” or not. However sometimes it is useful, if only a part of the data selection could be applied to the new screen. As a result it should be possible to mark per entity,…
Remove API Query limit for request made locally
Idea : Don't take query made locally - from Board server to itself - into account for the daily 500 query limit.
AutoSum Selected Range
Request for a possibility to AutoSum Selected (highlighted) range, similar to AutoSum in Excel. Example below. Condition - works on numerical cells only. We have observed that Board Users often export views to excel to run sum on a range of cells that intersect across multiple rows and columns. This becomes particularly…
Improving security management through easier maintenance of profiles
Hi everyone, As I already discussed with some of our Board France friends (Andrea Masiero especially), I found that Board is missing some key features in terms of security management. Some of them have workarounds through the so-called "Tilde Database" system, but this is not usable for all customers and it was not usable…
