Dynamic and Cube-based Layout Selections
On searching the Idea Exchange there is an old suggestion: "Dynamic Selection within Layout" from 2018 by an Unknown contributor. The Idea received 47 votes - as follows: "A good improvement would be the chance to set up a dynamic selection within Board Layout. This way you should be able to create different infromation…
Copy/Paste Individual blocks from a layout
Hi, It'd be useful to copy and paste individual blocks from one object's layout to another, carrying forward any block references/functions applied to that particular block. This would remove the need to duplicate the same work across multiple objects requiring that same cube; making it more efficient to develop objects…
Enhancing Data Entry: Refer-To & Layout Selections
We suggest adding the ability to modify data entry cubes in a data view when refer-to and/or layout selections are present. This would allow for: Simplifying the design of data entry templates Reducing the size of the data model as it would require fewer cubes. Implementing this feature would not only enhance user…
How to do top-down allocation of an integer value
1. Abstract The article explains a possible method to ensure that top-down allocation of an integer value generates integer details through the redistribution of decimals. 2. Content In this example, we have a cube QTY [Year, Customer, Product] which is planned at a high level [Year, Product, Country] where Country is the…
Data view formatting
Hi, I want to format the heading of a Dataview and a I don't find how to do it: I want to get all the blue headings from the below screenshot in green. I have tried to do it through the Block Format but I could only modify what it already appears in green. And I also tried to do it thought the Templates but I could only…
Having the Ability to Drill Down When Using Vertical Block Alignment in the Data View
Hello Currently, the drill-down feature is unavailable when using vertical alignment in the Data View. I suggest adding this functionality in the upcoming updates to enhance efficiency and improve the overall user experience. Thanks, Akrem
Multiple subtotal lines in a granular data view
We're a homebuilding company and have a granular data view of our Gross Margin Analysis. It lists all of our addresses by community with their respective prices/costs/etc. Currently, we're only able to display one subtotal line for each community. However we would like to show multiple: Total, Average, etc. Has anyone…
Select a row template per block to overwrite the row header template
Dear all, It's usual to have a row header format and a column format (for data) that are different. It would be nice to be able to apply to Blocks another format / template than the row headers.
Indipendent display mode by each entity in axis
It would be amazing have the capability to choose display mode (code, desc, both) indipendently by each entity set in the axis thanks
Allow more detailed formatting of dataview
Currently the "Block Format" options allow to edit the style of single blocks, headers and total values. However, it is not possible to change the style of some dataview elements such as specific cells and total labels. It could be useful if the developer could, for example, set the "total" dataview labels in bold or…
Sub Total to be shown after use of Search Option in Dataview
Hi Team, The said feature should be similar to Excel Subtotal(Array[],9) formula, to show the sub total of only searched Items. thanks, Aniket
Excel Clipboard like capability while copy pasting the data from Excel to Board Dataview
Hi Team, the copy paste from excel to Board keeps only the values that are actually visualized into the Excel cell. e.g if you copy cell showing 1.2 into Board, then it will copy 1.2 only. But the cell may have a value like "1.22343242353452". This is the issue when we were working with client where they see data in…
Column sorting and filtering for the end user
Hi, it is often the case that Board replaces a previous Excel solution. In Excel there is the useful function that a filter can be placed over the columns with the help of which the user can sort in ascending or descending order. He or she can also set value filters there, for example, that only rows larger > or smaller <…
Sorting Rows - Keep Top setting for more than one dimension
We have several requirements with keep top setting AND showing more that one dimension in the dataview. It seems like this function only works as long as there is only one dimension in the rows. E.g. I'd like to have the Top 25 Materials sorted on Sales-Cube desc. on a material level - and as second information I would…
Dataview - Dynamic Underline
In our Dataview we have oppurtunity to add a underline to highlight a column. The options are static and can't be influenced by shown data. I dream of a dynamic underline like our Alarm-Feature. Depending on block-values or another block a underline or different underlines could be shown. Example: In a Forecast-Report i…
"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…
Dynamic filter on Layouts - for flags
Hello! I was wondering if there is a way to introduce dynamic filters for binary flags/indicator variable that only take values that are 0 or 1 and can be displayed as tickboxes on the dataview. For users that wish to filter for materials in a drill down for example, it would be super helpful if they were able to select…
Cube Visibility & Cube cells locked by
Cloud version: 12.6 0288217 Hello, I can't get Cube Visibility (Deny cell editing in Database Security) combined with Cube cells locked by to work, even if the cubes are not conflicting. This is the error message shown on the Screen when you log in as a User (not Developer). The error message itself is not explanatory. Is…
MIN, MAX and Last Value in summary settings
When in a layout it would be great to have an option in the drop down for Last Value, Min and Max when looking at sub-totals. When we look at a rolling balance of inventory or finances, sometimes seeing the flow by week and then into month it would make sense to see the last value. Currently we can show total, average or…
change table/dataview from pivot to flat list
We are regularly getting the question from users if it's possible to change the standard BOARD pivoted table to a flat list. I know this functionality also from other BI-Tools and it would be great if the user can decide via dataview-menu if he wants to have a flat list shown. Default can be still the pivoted view, but the…
Fix Entity in Quick Layout
Would be great if we could fix dimensions within the quick layout. This is very important to allow mid flexibility within the quick layout function. Its specially important when we have a rule within one of the dimensions, that must always be there to be able to display data correctly.
Flat data table for enduser
There should be a possibility for endusers to adjust a data table to a flat data table by theirselves. Due to the quick layout (and the possibility to drag several entities in the rows) it might be useful to adjust a "normal" table to a flat data table in play mode for a better overview.
Activate number scaling when using DataView Search
currently activated number scaling (e.g. Thousands) is getting deactivated when you use the search function in a dataview It would be great if the set (defined) number scaling remains the same and is not changing. It's pretty irritating at the moment.
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…
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…
Enable Data Entry Lock on Grant/Group total to work onDataview with more than 2 Entities in Axes
Hi Team, It would be really great if the Data entry lock can be enabled for the Group Total or Grant Total cell. And the Split and Splat should work on the the group level first and then to the individual cells. Currently even if you lock 1 total on the lowest group total, then the entire group/Grant total is disabled. In…
Search Option in Dataview should not results into disabling the number scaling
Hi Team, Currently, when using the Search option on a Dataview, it filters only that row, and simultaneously, it disables the Number scaling. As the number scaling option can be changed by the user, the disablement of Number scaling upon the use of the search option should be avoided. Additionally, as you can see, the…
