Remember last 5 searches in Code SearchCompleted

As a developer, I want to be able to quickly switch between my last 5 searches to see the Code search results.This will allow developers to effectively search multiple expressions and inspect the results of these searches quickly. It will also decrease the amount of times a developer would have to Code search once again for the same expressions even though the results would not be any different from the previous search.

Model rights tab or jump-task for each SF object (table, task, report etc.).Completed

I would like the model rights tab, or jump tasks, to be available for each SF object (table, task, report etc). When you change a table you also have to change the role rights (e.g. new column). Now you have to open the model rights from the menu and search for the object.  The same counts for functionality. I would like to change functionality at the place where it is related to. When I add parameters to a task, I would like to be able to change the default, layout and task functionality in the context of this task.

Grouping icons in icon libraryCompleted

The icon library in Software Factory is a bit cluttered at the moment, and it is not easy to structure which icons should be available for which use. In order to provide a consistent user experience, it could be very nice if we could group icons, and based on this, display a group of icons in the places where we can use them. For example, one grouping could be material-filled, material-outlined and color. Another grouping could be tasks, prefilters, subjects, form groups, etc. Based on configuration (and prefilters) we can then influence at which places which icons could be made available. Prefilters can of course always be turned off if you really want to deviate for a good reason.

"Don't show again" option for close all documents on switching branchesCompleted

ProblemWith the release of the new software platform the SF offers to close all documents for us when switching branches (yeah!). However my colleagues and I always want to do this, so we get a pop-up we always answer the same waySolution"Don't show again" option for close all documents on switching branches. This way, developers that always want their documents to close, do not get bothered with a unnecessary pop-up.

Merge a branch to another branchCompleted

I would like to merge branches to other branches, even when the only thing they have in common is the main branch. There already have been several questions about this:  The suggestion there is to always use a common branch between branches so that branch A may be merged to branch B via common branch C. We are increasingly struggling with our branches however. It often happens that incomplete functionality in branch A is needed in branch B and we didn’t foresee this when we created the branches.With the recent changes to project versions and how differences are calculated, would it now be possible to implement support for merging branches to other (not directly related) branches? Somewhat like how Git supports this.

Allow updating program object code with disabling parameter detection of bracketed words.Open

When your code contains bracketed words, like [server_name], that are not intended as parameters, you can not edit the code of the program object from the “deploy” tab of a control procedure.The brackets do not have the function of signifying a parameter here, but to make sure the server name is a qualified name that can include spaces.Having an option in the control procedure to disable parameter detection would avoid this message and allow you to make changes to the program object (generated) code.

Download deployment packageOpen

When you run indicium in a container you have to go quite the mile to be able to get the generated deployment package. I would like to see the generate deployment package to end with a download (ZIP for example) of the package. Current issues:Now it references a location on my local PC.  It's build for windows path's  If you don't have volume defined you have to copy it out of the container.

Cardlist designerOpen

As a developer, I would like to have a designer for a cardlist so that I can easily determine the appearance of my cardlist myself and make it visual.Currently there are several options for configuring the basics of a cardlist. When you want something more in terms of formatting, you quickly end up with an HTML object, which, in my opinion, isn't truly low-code.What I would like is to have a designer for a cardlist similar to the screen types designer. With this, you can drag the objects you want to see in your cardlist to a location and also apply certain formatting, such as bold, italic, left or right alignment, etc. Current cardlist  Desired cardlist SuggestionA visual representation of your cardlist, including objects that have been added or are yet to be added, along with their respective formatting

Add extra parameters to copy application taskOpen

Since we sync development branches to IAM, we need to copy a lot of applications. Branches are synced to IAM so that we can test authorization. It would be a great QOL improvement if we can add three parameters to this task:Application alias Application active Database nameThis way, we don't have to copy an application, go to the form to edit these fields and save the record.

2FA with DUO PushClosed

Like many, our company uses DUO Push for users to log in on the network. We would like to use this too for the users who has an extended application in Universal GUI next to our ERP in Windows GUI. IAM supports only the TOTP 2FA with means that those users has two different ways of using 2FA to confirm login:1) Netwerklogin: simply tap the green tick2) UGUI login: copy/paste and confirm the validationcodeThe first way is much easier & user friendly then the second way.Is it possible to implement DUO Push as well in the near future?

Maintenance modeOpen

I think that it would be good to have a switch to put the Universal web interface in maintenance mode, and even better to be able to show messages to users that this is going to happen. When we do an update and the update, for example recreates the fact table, the update can take a long time. We do send a mailing to the users to warn them that they should not use the application during this time.It might be better to have a way to lock the users out completely. At this moment I could organize in Azure that users get redirected, but as Universal can still be open in the browsers of users, there is still a risk that users get in a confusing situation.The ideal scenario would be to have a setting in IAM, which makes that the user gets an “this site is under maintenance” message in the interface, and is prevented from entering data.

Translation domain valuesMerged

Sometimes when I am working on a dynamic model for example, it is difficult to figure out which database value for a domain in the SF database translates to a particular translation in the GUI. For example, figuring out the database value in the table col for column 'calculated_field_type' when it is an expression or when it is a calculated column can be quite tedious. I usually then look for a column in the UI with the particular value I am looking for, and then query the database to find out what database value is associated with this. One of the solutions to this tedious process is a translation table in the SF database, where you can see what domain element is translated to which text. However, i'm open to other solutions...

Button to display database values instead of lookup/elementsOpen

A feature which would be a great help to me is an option to switch between lookup/element values and database values. Obviously you would like to see the lookup column and translated elements within a screen. However sometimes, for debugging, you would like to switch to seeing the database values instead. This will allow you to quickly determine the ID's for all lookup columns and see the database value for the domain elements. You can use these values for further debugging using SQL scripts.You could implement this option in the developers tab in the ribbon.

Filtered icon on top of a grouped listClosed

Hi,When you put a filter on a list column, you get a neat little icon next to the column heading to show you that it’s filtered. But when you grouplist the column(s) there is no indicator that it’s filtered:Is it possible to show a filtered indication when a list is grouped with filters?rgds Ricky

Give an error if indicium and universal are out of syncOpen

For universal to work properly indicium needs to be in line with the universal version. However nothing is preventing you from using an older indicium version. This can result in errors and features not working properly. It would be helpful if universal would check during the login process if the indicium version is in line with universal. If not give a popup warning, something like: universal and indicium are out of sync some functionality might not work properly. Bonus points if we can show the universal and indicum versions in this popup.

Set flow frequency using expression field (customer defined value)Closed

I would like to see some improvements in the the process schedule:Frequency to be fetched from tenant or user (expression), now it's a fixed value while in multi-tenant/multi-user environments could happen that you have a asynchronous system flow, where in our case a user can define how often a time info will be updated.  When recurring, can starting at/to be not mandatory..  if empty then it's the whole day. I keep forgetting that 00 to 00 means not running. (separate idea)

Automatically assigning validations within feature branchesOpen

In our project, we employ feature branches where each developer works on their own feature. From a quality perspective, we aim for each developer to be accountable for all pending validations within their branch.Therefore, we seek to automatically assign all new validations within the branch to the developer of that branch if they are not already allocated. It would be practical to specify this on a per-branch basis, as there may be instances where multiple developers are working within a single branch.

Make code review (not) mandatory per model or branchOpen

Code review being mandatory is a global SF setting right now.sf_configFor some models, you don’t want to mandatory code review. For instance if you have a model where only one developer works on.Alternatively, make an overwrite setting per model/branch that overrules the default setting in sf_config.

Parameter MagicMerged

When creating a control procedure, it is useful to have an overview of all parameters within the template. I usually go through the following steps: Create a object (Task, Subroutine, Function etc..) with parameters   Create a Control Procedure and Assign the ‘New’ template to the object       Generate the definiton, copy-paste all parameters to the template and add following the text at the end of each parameter: ‘-- [empty_line_on_generate]’   Code: -- PARAMETERS FOR DEVELOPMENT -- [empty_line_on_generate] DECLARE @id AS id -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_01 AS text_10 -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_02 AS text_1000 -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_03 AS date_no_time -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_04 AS int -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_05 AS amount -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_06 AS amount -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_07 AS percentage -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_09 AS country_id -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_10 AS text_255 -- [empty_line_on_generate] Generate the parameters, empty the value and switch the ‘no_line_when_empty’ option to ON       As a result, you always have access to all parameters, which you can give a value to test the code during development. Like this: -- PARAMETERS FOR DEVELOPMENT -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @id AS id = '1234' -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_01 AS text_10 = 'ABC' -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_02 AS text_1000 = 'ZZZ' -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_03 AS date_no_time = NULL -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_04 AS int = NULL -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_05 AS amount = NULL -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_06 AS amount = NULL -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_07 AS percentage = NULL -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_09 AS country_id = 'NL' -- [empty_line_on_generate]DECLARE @parameter_10 AS text_255 = 'XXXX' -- [empty_line_on_generate]INSERT INTO .... ETC.. And you will not have errors when executing the code. Idea for improvement in SF: Add some code to the ‘Assign’ button to automate step 3 and 4

Support for more file storage providers like OneDrive and Google DriveOpen

As there are a few bigger online workspace providers out there it would be great if Thinkwise would support these out of the box. Primarily we are missing OneDrive support for companies that use Microsoft 365 and Google Drive support for companies that use Google Workspace.
