Add button in Indicium to redirect to the appCompleted

Sometimes users end up in Indicium and they have no clue what that is. It would be helpful for them to have a ‘go back to the application’ button. The action should be striking so that they can easily go back.

The branch diagram display does not scale properly when the branch name is too largeCompleted

It would be better if the diagram scaled with it. If this is not technically feasible, an alternative would be to use a tooltip function with the mouseover to display the full name. Unreadable branch name  💡If this is not technically feasible either, a possible solution could be to use a branch alias with an E.g. nvarchar(8) that is used in the branch diagram as a representation.

Closing tabs on switching applications in IAMCompleted

When changing the application in IAM the existing tabs, which were opened by the user, will stay open. It would be nice if this could be changed and that when someone changes from one application to another application, the existing tabs were closed. Not as a default but as an option using extended properties.

Enable OLTP in memory table configuration in SF for cloud (Azure SQL, etc)Open

Dear all,As per current documentation the In-memory OLTP functionality in SF supports regular on Premise SQL server. Since many of us are going to cloud hosted SQL server we need to have this option enabled for cloud as well.Personally my projects are on Azure SQL and have researched only for the specific one. Other might use AWS, Google etc. Requesting that this option is enabled and during Creation process to recognize if In-Memory is Supported by the DB and accordinlgy set the correct options on the tables script creation or upgrade script.Example:On my Dev I have a lower Pricing Tier with no OLTP support. I should be able to run create and my In-Memory configured tables should be created as normal.On my Acceptance (UAT) which is production like my Pricing Tier is higher with the support of OLTP so when connecting during creation to build my code for a deployment it should detect that this is supported and my tables should be created with related option for in-memory use.ThanksMike

The ability to mark tables as "not subject", or specify for what they should be used or not.Closed

If you want to build an application in traditional layers, there are things you don’t want to show as a form, some things only as lookup, for filters, etc.It would be great to be able to define that something is not for user input, and hide it from the subject list.

Add data-testid to treeview type menu itemsOpen

For the listbar- and tile menu in the Universal GUI, data-testid's are added on the html-elements for the buttons. These data-testid's are missing on the html-elements for the buttons in the treeview menu. Only the html-elements for the icon and the label contain a data-testidA data-testid on the html-element of the button would really help for styling and testing purposes

Manual test role (authorization) for the Software FactoryCompleted

We increasingly encourage to register the test scenarios they have in the SF under Manual Test Scenarios. Key users should also be able to do this. Both the registration of these scenarios and the execution of a test run. This also includes creating findings. There is actually no role for this yet. A test role. A role that only makes these test functionalities available. The situation is such that we have indicated that we will register the test scenarios in the SF. These are currently in an Excel file.Later, if Key-users are going to perform regression tests, for example, it would be appropriate if they could do this via the SF. Then all these test runs are registered. The wish is therefore to create a test role that can at least be used for the following components:Specification -> Manual Test Scenarios Quality -> Manual Tests

when copying a process action it also copies the XY coords causing it to be hidden behind the parentCompleted

As illustrated in this question: It would be more clear if the copied proces action would get the same coordinates a newly created proces action gets.Or alternatively the same as the parent BUT with a few pixels offset…

Provide code example when creating an Expression, Calculated or Calculation (Function) columnCompleted

When creating a table column that has a calculation type, it is necessary to write some code. Based on the type, the structure of the code will be different from one and other. Such like Expression columns, you can make use of the “T1.” alias, which is the table itself, whilst Calculated columns cannot use this.Just like the code example in Control procedure for SQL-typed CP's, I would like a short example that shows me as a developer what I can (and cannot) use as code.  Example: Expression:  concat_ws(' ', t1.first_name, t1.last_name) --Thanks @Robbert :)   Calculated: (100.0 + tax_percentage) / 100.0   Calculated (function):  select sum(order_total) from sales_order where sales_order_id = @sales_order_id

Have menu item subnamesCompleted

Currently the Subname object is placed within the Quality → Validation section. This is not preferred. There should a direct menu item for the subnames in the Software Factory. Probably under the menu group Data.

Use "Go to object in code overview" directly from the designer tab within flowsCompleted

It is possible to "go to object in code overview" within the "process actions" subject for both processes and subflows. However, I would like to see this feature extended to the "Design" subject as well.When testing or debugging flows, I prefer using this feature directly from the "Design" subject, as it provides me with the best overview and understanding of the flow.Currently, I have to double-click the process action in the designer tab, which navigates me to the "process actions" subject, from where I can use the "go to object in code overview" option. When I want to check the next step, I have to switch back to the "Design" subject to select te next process action. Also the focus of the selected process action is gone.  In the "Design" tab, it is already possible to use the shortcut (Alt + O), which displays all program objects of the flow. However, this approach has a disadvantage as it makes it harder to obtain a clear overview and understanding of the flow.

IAM Emailing functionalityPartially completed

Reason behind the below request is that currently, our soon to be published application will need to server approximately 6k users. Managing mass notifications through scripts and other non-automated actions is not efficient and can easily make mistakes.We are in need of an email functionality within the IAM to communicate with the users.What this functionality needs to do is being able to store specified email templates by the IAM administrator. Be able to set automated emails based on specified template to be send out related to Actions done within the IAM from a user as alerts. User Activation & de-activation. User management related emails ( registration, unregister, account deletion, etc... ) Sending informative and Notification emails (System Maintenance, Downtime, Planned upgrades) Have it linked to the Universal GUI under the Account Menu, for user System notifications within the published apps. The IAM sits on top of Indicium and the SMTP configuration can be used to send out the emails. Please let me know what you think and if there is already the same idea posted share it to be voted.

2023.1 after merge when deactivate branch is selected switch branch to the merged into branchCompleted

In 2023.1 if you merge a branch into main/or other branch version you can opt to deactivate the current branch. Doing this will still keep the deactivated branch as the active branch (if you are working in this branch at the moment). Working in a deactivated branch is not advised so it would be better to switch to the merged into branch instead. I propose on a merge into with the deactivate branch option selected give a popup of if you want to switch branches to the merged into branch.

Universal Custom CSS - Additional settings for specific modesCompleted

Goal: customizing the Universal GUI for different platformsIt could be helpful to tweak the Universal GUI based on the platform. We would like to make a difference in look & feel between mobile and universal logins.Currently there is no selector in the custom css, so selectors for ‘mobile’, ‘universal’, ‘windows’ and ‘web’ could do the trick

Disable tab icons in Universal ThemeCompleted

In the Themes used by Windows & Web it is possible to disable the display of icons on tabs. I was wondering where this could be set for Universal themes. I need to disable the icons on tab level. We only want to display icons on the tiles and not on tab level. This setting is not available in the Universal theme page of the SF.

dbEventlog improvementsOpen

The current dbEventlog has potential but not very friendly to work with, can it be upgraded a bit to have the abilitty to filter, sort the list on long running queries. Also showing the type of query (app, sf, iam) the main subject would help..  now you have to decipher the query to actually know what it's doing. And lastly, can you show the query and not the prepared statement..

Differentiating snackbar messages with colorOpen

Our application would greatly benefit from the ability to customize the background color of snackbar messages.This simple yet powerful feature would allow developers to more effectively communicate with users, and improve the overall user experience.By allowing developers to change the background color, they could easily distinguish error messages from confirmations, making it easier for users to understand and take action.

Filter form with required valuesClosed

It would be a nice feature if we could make certain filter form values mandatory and set a default value. Especially with big datasets you would require the user to for example fill in minimal 3 filter criteria before actually executing the filter.. (in this case we would start empty with filter).

Model Rights show the lowest access levelClosed

Model rights has 2 levels, the allowed or set level (model rights level) and the meta level. If a model right is set to read/write but the meta level is set to read only the action will still show up as green in the list. When synchronizing the model rights to IAM the model rights will be adjusted to fit the meta level setting. So when applied to IAM the action will be shown as yellow (read only), even though it shows as green in model rights in the SF. To make this process more user friendly I suggest instead of showing the model rights level show the lowest level instead (since this is the level that will be applied to the IAM database).

Create a meta custom view automatically with the activation of system versioningClosed

The option to enable system versioning is great for creating log options. As I see it the SF could do it automatically already by creating a copy of the system versioned table, make it a meta custom view, copy all the column names into the view column_names and add the valid_from valid_to fields at the beginning as PK's.  I do it manually now, but it would be great to have it as a default option in the SF.

Make role_id field of role longerOpen

Currently, the "code" of a role (role_id) can contain a maximum of 100 characters.To clearly define roles, we would like to have more space available, so that we do not have to work with all kinds of obscure abbreviations to be able to make sufficient distinction within those 100 characters.The description of a role is longer (1000 characters), but in many places in the SF and IAM the role_id is shown and not the description.Can the length of the role_id field be increased, for example to 250 characters?

Add merged trunk version to code historyClosed

Currently code history only shows the project in which the code was created (often this is a branch) but not the main trunk version in which the new code was introduced. This is important information since this gives you an indication how many releases there were after the new code was introduced. Please add a column to show the trunk version in the example below the 2nd line would show: trunk version: 2.30 and the top line would show trunk version: 2.31.

Improve the workflow for maintaining unit testsCompleted

Currently creating and maintain unit tests is extremely cumbersome, to illustrate I’ve written down the steps I needed to take to fix the unit test for a simple default.1.    Go to Unit Test2.    Run unit tests3.    Filter on Failed Unit test4.    Have a look at actual output5.    Open functionality6.    Try to find the code the unit tests is based on7.    Check the code8.    Go back to the unit tests and op the maintenance tab9.    Go back to Unit tests to copy the name of the failed unit tests since the failed unit test is not by default selected.10.   Check input parameters11.   Select tab expected output -> check output parameters12.   Check Mock Data to see which data set is coupled13.   Select tab Mock data set14.   Select data set that is coupled to the unit test (again I need to do this manualy since there is no reference)15.   Look for the tables that are used in the code16.   Go back to the tab with the input parameters to check how the code will interact with the mock data17.   Open the mock data to see the expected value18.   Fix the mock data.A big problem here is that the UI is failing me, I need to keep switching back and forth between tabs to look at the input/output parameters, mock data and actual code. Furthermore is switching between these tabs made difficult because there are no reference in place to open the detail I’m working on and need to keep looking for this.I don’t have a cut and dried solution for this problem but I do think this part of the SF could be improved by having a look at which information should be shown when (maybe an elaborate screen type of some sort) and reevaluating the workflow.
