Extra column 'Mock data used' in Unit test overviewCompleted

The overview of unit tests has already been enriched in recent releases with the fields 'Abort', 'Preparation' and 'Assertion'. In the same way, we want to see which unit tests use mock data. This way, you can see more quickly which unit tests fail in combination with mock data. This helps to predict the efforts a team will have to put into this mock data. Assuming that applications grow and data models change, more priority can be given to maintaining, keeping these data sets realistic.

Add description field of the reference on the reference popup in the SFCompleted

The references in the SF contain a field to save a description. I would like to see that description onto the reference popup in the data modeler, so people are encouraged to enter a little description for the reference.  And i would like to see the description field to be mandatory when you differ from the default settings in the Integrity section of the popup. So you consider why you are enable or disable a feature (such as the integrity Check).

Exclude added_by/added_on from auto generated update handlerCompleted

It would be nice if the auto generated update handler would not include the added_by and added_on trace fields. Because they are automatically included in the update handler you have to set a value for them, even though technically those two fields should never be overwritten. There are workarounds ofcourse, but i’d rather use the auto generated update handler as is. Our project is in Dutch, so if langauge can also be considered when excluding the added trace fields, that would be nice, because we are using toegevoegd_op en toegevoegd_door as added_by/on.

Remove task-icon of double_click_task_start extenderCompleted

Through a double_click_task_start extender, it is possible to define your own action. In our case we start a process flow to open another document that is related to the double clicked detail record.Unfortunately the only way to make this work also shows an icon in the task-bar. This can only be prevented either not showing the task-bar in the screen type, or by including an “invisible”-icon that still can be clicked.We would like the option to indicate whether this icon should or shouldn't be shown in the task-bar. If this is too difficult then not showing this icon would be our preferred alternative.This is something that should be possible, as other actions (such as drag&drop and zoom) are not visible in the task-bar.

'NO_GRANT_TO_PUBLIC' on IAMCompleted

In our configuration, only the application pool user of indicium/indicium universal/webgui needs rights to the database, and we want it that way for the lowest possible security risk.It is now possible to prevent rights to be given to the public role on the model database, so we have already achieved a certain degree of security. (https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/kb/tags#limit-database-authorization-with-a-tag)But it is not yet possible to achieve the same on the IAM database, while the IAM controls access to the model database.So it is our wish, with new versions of IAM, that these are also delivered in such a way that rights are never distributed to the public role.As an idea for a possible solution direction: As far as we are concerned, it may also be organized in such a way that the distribution of rights is arranged via 1 SQL script and that we ourselves prevent this sql script from being executed (for example, by means of a switch on the twdeployer.exe)

Additional Generated session variables for Windows GUIOpen

Use icon-repository in templatesOpen

The SF has a nice icon repository and I would like to use it in templates for expression fields or views.  Like a standard function that will get the icon from the repository. Now we have to create a second repository to dynamically fetch icons, whereas the icon repository is not available (like translations) in the end product. Would be great if icons, translations and more could be accessible via a view or pseudo table in the end-product.

Make the task update active directory group a multi row taskOpen

The task update active directory group fills the active directory parms (see attachment) in the default. When this task is executed for all rows then all user groups are updated with the same active directory settings.In the 2024.1 version of the platform the settings of the task will change to ‘popup for each row’. Now this will solve the issue of overriding all active directory settings, but then I will have to insert user name and password for each row.It would be easier if the active directory settings could be edited in the form. When needed the task could show the active directory parameters, but not change them. In this way I only have to enter the user name and password once.

(Advanced) Filter options Universal GUIOpen

In the latest Universal 2023.3.13 update, the option for advanced filtering was introduced.However, we think the filtering options in the Universal grid are not yet sufficient enough to give the user the experience and freedom they want. I think the Windows GUI has the perfect filtering option implemented, and we should expect something similar in Universal. Specifically, I mean this option:Filtering possibility Windows GUIThis option in combination with the extended filter will be very strong in my opinion.

Make process action 'Refresh Table' work when using 'Start Task'Open

Currently you need a ‘Start Table Task’ to make the process flow ‘Refresh Table’ action to work, even though you already specify the table that you want to refresh. See screenshot below:Currently, when you start your process with a ‘Start Task’, the ‘Refresh Table’ action will break and stop the process (and not refresh):​​​​​ I assume the Universal GUI ‘knows’ what tables are currently opened or actively viewed by the user. To me it would make sense that when you don’t start with a ‘Start Table Task’ but instead use a ‘Start Task’, that the GUI would understand that you want to refresh the actively opened screen/table, since you already specified this in the ‘Refresh Table’ process action.

Add a validation for index with only included columnsOpen

When creating a custom index it's possible to set all columns to included. This will however result in an error during creation, since at least 1 column should be not included. Please add a validation for this.

Set default value of max no of records to 100Open

The default value of max no of records for universal is 100. However the parameter in subjects is set to blank. Blank acts like 100. This is very confusing and not intuitive. My suggestion is to set the default to 100. And have blank act like unlimited.

Word wrap in Grid in UniversalMerged

I've seen a topic on responsive size for form fields and cardlists, but nothing about the grid in particular I have several grids with a large number of columns with long values in them that have to be shown on a mobile device with a low resolution, while the number of simultaneous rows needed to be shown is low.The users are already using landscape mode to maximize horizontal space, but being able to make more use of the vertical space would be very welcome.

SF : supply a remarks-field on any objectClosed

I really miss an in-model way to store meta info on most object types in the SF! Columns and tables have a description field, but many objects do not have such a field. Now I tend to abuse the helptext in the translations for it, but it is not really user-oriented documentation. It seems like a small addition to generate a remarks/description column in each SF object, would it be an option?

Option to disable update existing records in importMerged

We would like to have a little more influence on the import actions. The import now follows the allowed actions. What means that if you cannot insert it will only update and if you cannot update it will only insert. I would like to be able to have a custom setting for the import.For example we have a page where the individual records may be edited, in the form. But new records are mostly imported via the import function. Sometimes people accidentally do an export and copy some records but they forget to remove the id. What happens then is that the record that should have been added gets updated instead. (completely logical since it is using that key) To avoid this we would like to disable the update existing rows functionality for imports.

'Jump' to 'model rights' screen from objects to which rights can be assigned.Merged

Hello, as discussed in this topic, it should be possible in the next release to ‘jump' between SF screens. I would like to offer the idea to jump to the ‘Model rights’ screen from objects like tasks, prefilters, process flows, subroutines and other objects to which rights can be assigned. This way we can more easily oversee which roles already have access to an object from the objects’ perspective, making it easier to assign these roles to a new object. For example, if i have some prefilters available in a subject for a specific role, and i were to add another prefilter to that subject, i would like to see which roles have access to the other existing prefilters to make it easier to identify which roles i need to assign to the new prefilter.

Define valid screen types per tableMerged

It is nice that users can choose which screen type they want to use, but as a developer I miss the possibility to associate screen types with tables. I would like to limit the screen types that a user can choose from per table.However, not every screen is suitable for use with every table. Screens that use extender components such as scheduler and maps are particularly affected.

Set control procedure status back to development if changes were made during review statusMerged

When a template in functionality - control procedure is in the 'to review’ status it can still be modified on the functionality screen. I think the status should be reverted back to "in development” when changes are made while in "to review” status. This way you will be sure to update the changelog with correct info when making a second change to a control procedure or a revision to a previous code.

Process flow actions should also show the variant in a open document taskMerged

In the Software Factory when working with process flows it can be a litle confusing/hard to see which action is which. For example we have 4 open document ‘supplier’ actions. Each opens a different variant. Now it is quite hard to see which is which. Especially when you want to connect nodes.Idea would be to show the variant name supplier (price_component_validation)
