Show Message - Yes/No Option
Hi there! I think it would be really useful to be able to change the text in the Yes/No option. It can be Yes/No by default, but maybe you can add a way to customise it. An example would be this: It would also be great to change the colour of the button (not always blue).

New Exit Procedure Step for exiting/stopping the complete procedure process (for nested procedures)
1. What is your idea? Introduce a new procedure step which exits/stops the complete procedure execution even if the procedure which uses this new exit step is a nested procedure (was executed inside another procedure). 2. What specific problem are you trying to find a solution to, or what new scenario would this idea…

Execution of single procedure steps for testing purposes
For testing purposes it would be helpful if a single procedure step could be executed by for example right-click on the step. As a consequence it would not be necessary to either deactivate all the other steps or to create another procedure containing only the step which is supposed to be tested.

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…

REST API - Execute Procedure with Selection
Selections are an elementary concept for controlling procedures in Board. When starting a procedure from a screen, a start selection is usually passed with it. We need this possibility also, if we start a procedure over the rest Api. The selection could be passed in the body as JSON. Currently only the database name and…

Adding search engines in all process options
It would be very helpful to have a search engine like "Select Entity Based on Cube" or "Clear Cube" (Picture) in all options where a selection has to be made. There are many options, such as "Remove Selection on Entity" or "Cube Align" (picture), where you have to search for entities or cubes by scanning a list.

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.…

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…

Data Model object comments

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…

Clicking outside of a Show Message box should not register the click as Yes
If you (accidentally) click outside the Show Message box, Board will register it as a Yes/OK and continue the Procedure. Suggestion: If clicking outside the box, nothing should happen.

copy procedure from one capsule to another
would be great if one could copy or save a procedure from one capsule to another where also temporary cubes are copied. That would massively simplify the copying or even moving of a procedure instead of recreating the procedure by copying the steps and re-creating the temporary cubes.

"Run as administrator" option for "Advanced broadcast rule"
From my point of you it would make sense if there would also be a "Run as administrator" option for the broadcast function "Advanced broadcast rule" so that the developer can explicitly run the broadcast function without (previously removed) security selections. Right now there is no such option so the broadcast function/…
