Change Click-on-Selector behaviour in Development Mode
Currently when designing a screen and clicking on a selector object in order to move, alter or align it, the selection window is opened and has to be closed manually. During development it is more common to configure or move Selector Objects than actually setting up a selection using the Selector. Therefore it would be…
more Comment-formatting/placement options
We are having several management reports (basically P&L structure) which need to get commented by all subsidiaries. This commenting needs to be done in an extra table below the main data view (columns not possible due to a lot of columns and scrolling to the right is not an option). This makes it a bit difficult to find…
Search and/or sort among Mask screen
When working with the screen selection for Masks it's very hard to find the correct screen when you have a long list of screens. Ideas: - Make the list searchable and/or sorted in alphabetical order. - Make it easier to remove/add screens from/to a Mask. Now you have to do it in two steps - first remove and then add. Have…
RGB color in Dynawrite
Finding the customer's color in Dynawrite is difficult since the RGB color scheme is not used. RGB is used basically everywhere else in Board. Idea: Add option or change the color selection in a Dynawrite to RGB. This is how the color selection looks like in most other places in Board.
Export to Word
We are working on a project where information on Board needs to be exported to word to allow creation of documents with embedded information from Board. Currently if we export, we get a screenshot rather than exporting to word with the use of Board word add-in. I can see this being useful for lots of customers as financial…
Customize toolbars for dynawrite objects
It would be great if we could customize the toolbars in the text boxes for dynawrite objects. For example we dont want users to insert tables and we want them to use the same font size/style in all texts. In this case we would like to restrict the format options available to users.
Password on menu screen link
Hello It would be great have the possibility to set a password to access screens from the menu object. Now, to restrict the access to a screen I have to use a single button.
Rows & Columns - add all entities
Adding possible entities (and its hierarchy) to the Rows & Columns is time consuming. Here are three suggestions to make it less time consuming. Give option to set all possible entities as default in the whole environment. When selecting a Data View in the screen (design mode), give the option to enable all possible…
Show cubes with data entry in Impact Analysis
Problem When mapping out the flow of data in a Board application it's currently difficult to identify which cubes are open for on-screen data entry. Currently the only way to do this is to manually check through each screen in a capsule. This is particularly relevant when using cube-visibility for datamodel security.…
Option to Hide default Home button/ other buttons
Problem Statement: Users have been provided with a specific screen URL to be added to Favorites and used. This has been done to avoid users viewing the folders created for capsules. Issue: Now when users log in and navigate to capsules from other folders from the Landing/ Super Home screen, they have the default "Home"…
Zoom in for Graphs
required a feature in graphs whereby clicking on an expand button, we can expand into the entire screen (fill entire screen with graph)
Graphs with toolbar always visible and Single data block : display drop down list directly
Currently, when the toolbar is always visible and the Layout is on single data block in a graph, we have the result in the third screenshot to change the selected block. However,it isn't very practical, and user tend to miss that the feature " single data block " allow them to switch from Quantity to revenue for exemple.…
Board Theme: Header Picture Scaling
Hi all! This is a rather minor wish: When scaling windows or changing screen resolutions, the Board Theme "Header background picture" should also do so accordingly. Alternatively (or in a first step), the option to align the "Header background picture" left or center, in addition to the implicit default (right), would be…
Hyperlinks disappear when export from Board to other platform or to word file.
When you put hyperlinks in the rtf file in Dynawrite in Board, they work very well. But when export them to other integration tool or export as a word document they disappear. I have also attached the image on left side text from Board and right side text from export. But in export links were disappered.
Default Database Security Profile while creating a new DB - ADMIN
Dear Team, Currently when we create a Database, it is setup without any Security Profile. Could we please look to add the step of adding a default Database Security Profile - ADMIN at the time of creating a new Data model. We could have this done behind the scenes as soon as the developer finishes setting up the time range…
Export printable report - Full screen
Recently I had a client ask if it was possible to export a screen to a presentation slide, where it takes up the full screen. As you can see, the largest slide size available is 16:9, with the other being 4:3. Sometimes clients would like if the screen takes up the full slide size without having a lot of whitespace around…
Format report in Microsoft WORD
Within T-Mobile it is our objective to report everything from BOARD. Herefor, we need to combine the individual BOARD reports in WORD to have one total report which we can easily share with the stakeholders. However, it is not possibility to have the same format of the report we have in BOARD to have it in WORD as well. It…

Total Last Value function
Total Last Value function – the Customer would like the “total” functionality to be extended and include a last value option (i.e., the total line should show the final number of a time series). Currently only SUM/MIN/MAX/AVG/CALCULATED are available. In the picture below the total should show 3 (last value of the series)
Drill Through - footer conditions in query
For now its possible to define 'Where' conditions only. It would be helpful to define footer conditions too. Examples: GROUP BY ORDER BY LIMIT FETCH FIRST X rows only ... Applicationexample: Our users can do a drill through on P&L Lines and can get all booking details --> its a large table in datawarehouse. In some cases…
Database Security / Transporter
Hi All, it would be really useful if the Board Transporter Tool would consider and work also with the Database Security Profiles. There are many alternatives (especially for customers working with the Subscription Hub) but it would be a great enhancement. Thanks, federico
Option to Hide Tabs
Dear all, The tab container is probably one of the most used objects across many applications and in my experience an absolute customer and user favourite. Sometimes, it is necessary to remove tabs for a certain situation but you want to keep the contained dataview for future use. Saving a backup screen, deleting the tab,…
Automation possibilty for "Sparsity Optimization"
We very much appreciate the new sparsity optimization feature that makes manual export/import obsolete. It would be great if this function could also be automated. There are use cases in which plan data is cleared or zeroed out again, for example, but the sparsity remains full. Therefore, it would be very helpful if the…
Board in Swedish language

Detail by - Dedicated & Independant "Show All" Options
Idea : Add a dedicated "Show all" options for detail by applied to the block Sometimes, for a better viewing/input experience, you need to display all entities defined in your "By Column" for all block but not all the detail by column that are empty.
Feature to add a "+" symbol in front of positive values only.
Currently this can only be achieved by using text algorithms, which can be very time consuming and difficult to manage across multiple screens/objects. Using the image below as an example, can we add a feature to add a "+" value in front of the 89.0% without writing it as an text algorithm in the data view? I understand…
Select Based On entities limitation
Extend the max number of entity members allowed on select based on. Currently when the max number is reached the selection removes all applied selection up to tha stage. Select based on is a critical functionality since it allows Keep mode on. Alternatuvely it would be acceptable if the Keep mode on could be enabled for…
