Some improvements on visibility of open documentsWorking on it!

In the universal GUI opening (a lot of) documents can make the navigation panel cluttered and even push the menu out of sight: Some suggestions to improve this: Split the navigation panel in two panels with seperate vertical scroll-bars as soon as the number of open documents exceeds a certain treshold Add levels for detail-documents beneath open documents and collaps them the same as the menu tree with (automatic) collapsing and expanding Add context (part of the breadcrumb) to the title or mouse-over of detail-documents to prevent having to open a document to see wich one is the right one Another suggestion: An option to lock an open document, so that it is available the next time I login to the application

Context parameters for badgesDeclined

As an alternative for this idea: Some improvements on visibility of open documents | Thinkwise CommunityI thought I might be able to use a badge to achieve the same result. I looked very promising, until I realized badges only know the context of the possible parent relations, not the subject itself (other than @variant_id).If we had access to the subject’s context, like the selected row’s primary keys, or the column filters (set by the “Change filters” process action), badges could be much more versatile.

Disable translation in Universal GUIMerged

In the Windows GUI a developer could choose to disable translations of domains and fields. This comes in as very handy when one wants to see which field is shown in, for example, a form. In my case, depending on what box is checked, a field called supplier_no is shown or homedealer_supplier_no: Switching on / off for translations in Windows GUI: I have not yet found the same functionality in the Universal GUI. Perhaps something to support in the future?

Login-option based on network-locationOpen

it would be great if Universal GUI/Indicium can determine if the user is on the local network or somewhere ‘outside’.In case we can determine the inside or outside location, it should be possible to configure the “login verification” at the user (or maybe application ?) per location.E.g.LAN login verification: “Password” Non-LAN login verification: “Password and TOTP token”This will make it possible to setup MFA for external usage, and avoid the additional factor in case working on the LAN.

Make IAM great again: redesign screens to use less detailsCompleted

Now that customer success is the focus. Can we also put some love and care into IAM? A lot of the screens are loaded with detail upon detail upon detail. Here is a small snippet of one of these monstrosities. Working on a laptop screen using Iam is next to impossible. Using less details and maybe aggregate some information into 1 view instead of a lot of details would greatly benefit the useability. Or add AI so I can ask IAM if a certain user has access to a certain menu sub item.

Simplify use of Refresh Model task during developmentPlanned

During development, the "Refresh Model" task may be called hundreds of times per day.It might be an idea to move the task to the header bar or assign a Shortkey to the task.And at the same time ignore all warnings, because they do not matter during development. This will definitely save a lot of time during development.

Optimize the smoke test screenOpen

In the smoke test screen you are quite limited on functions. I would love to see 2 things added here.A Task to hide a Test, or approve. Just like in the validation screen. Take for example a View that command timed out. You know the reason but it still pops up in your list and give alot of cluther arround the test steps that matter.   Another great task which is introduced in a lot of screens is the Go to functionality button or Go to prefilter button. Currently when something is wrong with a prefilter in the test step, you are not able to edited it in the form. You need to open it separately in subjects. Or when something is wrong with a view I would to go to the view code directly.

I would like to know the selected date in the schedulerNeeds feedback

When I use the scheduler, I can set the date in the date picker or I can scroll in time. When I start a task for a resource, I would like to know the value of the selected date.

Enable additional time scales option for schedulerOpen

We need more options to set up the time scales in the scheduler to see more details per day.Currently, the possibilities are too limited, and the behavior is not as expected.Time scale options in the software factory make it seem possible, but the end result looks very different and some combinations do not even work. We need additional options like these.    It is also desirable to be able to set that the current date is on the left side of the screen when starting  See also here:

Scheduler: Extend date chooser / Go to Prev/next activityCompleted

The sliding scale selector is nice,, but I would like it to have a popup to go to a more distant date more quickly. Or even some smart buttons here to go the previous / next event…   Scheduler always starts on current date, and I would definitely prefer if the system does that only when there is no activity planned yet..  in all other cases it should go the first activity planned.

Scheduler: Bounded Plan Frame and show planner dateCompleted

The current scheduler always start on the current time. This is unwanted. I want to be able to programmatically set the start date. There are a few ideas around this concept:Overrule start-view with custom date.  Bound the plan-scale with start / end-date  (for example when you plan an event) Hide non functional days/hours (holidays, weekends or other defined dates.. and hours that cannot be planned…  )

Create allowed tenant and login option rows when adding a Web DomainOpen

In case only one tenant exists it would help to create default rows in these tables when a web domain is added: :web_domain_allowed_tenantweb_domain_login_optionElse nobody will be abble to open the application and there is no other way to solve the problem via the IAM database

start and end time in the schedulerMerged

In the Resource Scheduler for the Universal GUI it would be handy to enter a start and end time for a day, so that not all the hours of a day are shown in the scheduler? For example, for suppressing night hours.

Working days & working hours Universal schedulerCompleted

For a customer I have created a scheduler in Universal. However, the customer indicates that she would like to set working days and working hours. This means that in certain scheduler views some end users have to scroll a lot to see the desired results. In the Windows scheduler it is possible to set working days and working hours. Could this setting also be applied to the Universal scheduler? This would be an additional reason for the customer to switch to Universal (earlier).

Make clickable grid lookups configurableOpen

Since Universal GUI 2025.2.13 (rc1) fields with ‘Look-up has popup’ will become clickable in the (non-edit-mode) grid to open the lookup. This is a great feature, however not in all cases is this desirable.There can be multiple reasons to use a lookup popup in edit mode to help the user find the right record, but this doesn’t mean that it always adds value to open the lookup in non-edit-mode. Having many lookup fields in a grid can make the grid feel troubled and I also can imagine it could conflict with setting up a double click task on lookup column.So please make it configurable for (non-edit-mode) grids which look-up field are clickable (to differentiate from the edit-mode). For example under Subjects > Components > Grid.

Domain (elements) VariantOpen

I'd like to be able to make a Variant of a Domain with Elements. Instead of making 'close to double' Domains I'd like to be able to do the next: Domain: "document_types" Elements(just some examples): 1- Purchase Order 2- Sales Order 3- Invoice 4- Picture 5- Kick off Document 6- Financial Summary So the case would be: I have a Documents table with a column "document_types" with this domain. As example there will be 2 views, where you can add Documents on different ways. So view 1: I want to be able to add Purchase Orders, Sales orders and Financial Summaries and in view 2: I want to be able to add Invoices, Pictures, Kick off Document and Financial Summaries. To achieve this i would have to make 2 more domains for view 1 and 2 where I'll also have to make sure the database values are the same as in domain "document_types". Right now it takes: -1 Extra time -2 The maintainability of these columns/domains are harder, because you need to make sure they are in-line with each other. What do you guys think?

Data migration history data: use default valueOpen

Now that history data has its own data mapping for data migration, please use the same default value as the field itself has a default value.So for example a mandatory checkbox field that has a default value of 0 in the col table: in the datamigration mapping it already inherits the default value value for itself. But the default value for the history data stays empty right now.

Pass reference columns to Process Flow for more Process actionsOpen

I would like to propose an improvement (or ask for help) regarding the Activate Detail event when used as a Start Object for a Process Flow.I want to use the Activate detail event to trigger a Process Flow. The goal is to fetch data from an external system/API and display it in the detail screen only at the exact moment the user opens that specific tab.Currently, when the detail grid is initially empty (no records), the Process Flow triggers successfully, but the input parameters are empty. The flow does not receive the Primary Keys (PKs) from the parent/reference record.Because of this, the Process Flow executes, but I have no context (Foreign Keys) to determine for which parent record I need to fetch the data.This behavior seems inconsistent compared to a Table Task. When you execute a Table Task on an empty detail screen, the application does pass the PKs from the reference/parent record into the task.I haven't found a way to retrieve the parent context in this specific scenario.If I am missing a configuration setting to pass the reference columns to the flow on an empty grid?Consider this idea to enable the Activate Detail event to receive the reference columns/parent PKs as input variables, even when the detail grid itself is empty.

Validate domain element lengthOpen

It would be a good idea to validate at the moment you add Elements to a domain, that the length of the domain is sufficient to store the element database value.For example:Domain will be added with data type VARCHAR, length 5.Element with database value "TestValue” will be added.The system alerts the developer that it’s not possible to add this value as it would not fit within the domain setting of max. 5 characters.This would avoid frustration at testing when the developer notices that it’s inpossible to store the full database value "TestValue”.
