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.

Possibility to choose for "Ignore whole file" and "Ignore error and continue file"Open

Currently, when selecting ‘Ignore’ when executing source code on error the rest of the code file will be ignored. I would like to have the possibility to ignore the specific error and continue the code file.

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.

Custom Sequence Sorting on DomainsClosed

ChallengeCurrently, elements in domains with database values like 1, 2, 3 can only be sorted by their database value or alphabetically, limiting display customization in the database.Proposed FeatureImplement a custom sequence-based sorting system, allowing users to define the order of elements independently of their database values.BenefitsImproved User Experience: Enables more intuitive and user-friendly data presentation. Separation of Data and Presentation: Aligns with best practices in software development. Developer Efficiency: Simplifies the development process by avoiding workarounds like modifying database values.

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)

Universal Edit in GridClosed

I would like to see we can enable edit in grid via de Universal. Now you have to or always be in edit mode (not wanted) or edit per row. Is this already on the backlog?

Add an option to display side bar menu in collapsed mode as default in Universal GUIOpen

For our applications, we would like to use as much of the screen as possible.End users will have multiple document open at the same time, sometimes on a relatively small screen.To give the end users some more screen space, we would like to set the default setting of the sidebar menu in the Universal GUI as collapsed.So when they open the application, the menu is automatically set as collapsed.Side bar menu fullsize​​​​​​Side bar menu collapsed

App and 2-factor authenticationClosed

When we log in with 2-factor authentication every time we must get the authentication code. Maybe it is an idea to ask ones a month and not everytime we login.

Online Help (web)Closed

We have some ideas to enhance the online Help (web): The ability to have a General section where online help can be displayed, including enabling referrals (hyperlinks) to this section or from this section to other parts of the online Help (tables, columns , Tasks, reports). This makes it possible to include general information about the steps in the processes clearly in the online Help. To better identify the search option (many users do not know that this is possible, is visually not clear enough). In The above example it is not clear to the user where to click to search. The performance of the search is still not very well. The ability to display the online Help screen as part of the Dinz Web screen, so you can see the Dinz Web screen and Help ' next to each other. Possibility to enter (ALSO) Help for a combination of a column and table (or report, task, etc.). Now the Help is recorded per column, so it is the same for all the tables in which this column is included, while the behavior, meaning, and possibilities may be different. When I search for a word, I also get screens (tables) for subjects, which are not in the list of tables. Make search more intelligent. When I search on ' debtor report ' I get no results. When I search on ' report ' OR ' debtor ' I get results. Prevent tables/topics from occurring more than once. It is not clear to the user what is meant.

Change Universals' message when refreshing model/logging out during editingOpen

When you are editing a record in the Universal GUI, the GUI prompts with a message to inform a user that he is still adding/editing a record, and he should first cancel or save it’s changes before logging out. Is it possible to change this (at least for developers, who regularly refresh the model) to the prompt if a user wants to cancel his changes, that is also shown when the user simply uses the cancel button in the form? This will save some time and frustration when regularly testing and refreshing the model.

Ability for double clicks that will execute tasks to work on fields(forms)/columns(grid)Open

We have an idea of instead of having a lot of tasks as buttons around the page to do specific code executions or process flow, like process action “go to row”. Maybe we can just bind them to fields and if we double click the fields, they will be able to do different things.Obviously, we already have this as DoubleClick on grid, meaning its per record. What if we can do this also per fields. If this feature is considered. It would help us have our pages using Universal Gui look simpler with the task buttons be hidden in the background. Current Double Click Feature we have.

Layout mode function in Context procedureOpen

It would be great if you could utilize the @layout_mode function in a context procedure template. I have two deletion tasks assigned to two different roles, and I tried to hide the tasks if the layout mode is set to 'add.' However, it appears that this function is not available in a context procedure.

Make IAM application to be started adjustable via ini-fileOpen

Various 'administrations' are used for our new application (rebuilding a complete ERP system). All data is stored in 1 database. An IAM application is created for each 'administration'. To prevent user (input) errors, we want to be able to start each IAM application separately, whereby the other IAM applications are not visible. This problem can be solved by extending the existing INI file for controlling the IAM applications.We would like an extra parameter to indicate which application (alias) should be started with that specific INI file (running the Windows GUI). Only that application then has to be started and the user must therefore not see the other applications "at the bottom left of the screen".Something like the 'Model' parameter in the INI file for the SF. It is then always completely clear to a user in which application (and therefore which administration) they are working.

Digital Certificate CheckOpen

 In Brazil it's sort of mandatory for especially companies to have a digital certificate. I would like to see Thinkwise to support the validation/authentication of a digital certificate. It's a common question here as towards we can do something with it.

Icon repository - block forbidden file types (or give a Validation-error)Completed

Since TSF 2023.1 we have an Icon Repository, with the following supported file types:A change in the Icon repository is that we have limited the allowed extensions. First, every extension could be used for an icon. Now, it has been limited to .gif, .jpeg, .jpg, .png, .bmp, and .svg. This week I had an issue with the Universal GUI that some of my Icons weren’t showing up. The request gave an 403 error but no idea why. It turned out to be that the icons had an ICO-file type. Works perfectly in Windows, but clearly not in Universal.It would be nice if is impossible in the SF to upload Icons with a ‘forbidden’ file type (extension whitelist??)  or at least that the Validation will give an error or a warning.

Smart SynchronizationOpen

Smart upgrades have been possible for quite some time. One feature that would greatly benefit the deployment process would be a smart sync. The SF knows which objects have been modified so it should also be able to deduce which object need to be synced. This could speed up the syncing process by miles and would make the SF even more powerful to use.

Enhanced Default Settings in Software Factory for Column SortingOpen

We've got a nifty validation setup in our Software Factory that checks for sorting on columns that are not supported by the GUI. Pretty slick, right? But here's the kicker: we can't set this as a default on the domain level like we do for filtering and searching and as such I need to do this all by hand.I'm thinking it'd be a nice to have for our devs to streamline this process by making 'allow sort' default to 0 for columns in unsupported GUI domains. Let's make life easier for our team!

Allow download of previous report data in history popupOpen

The Software Factory offers the option to show the history of several items throughout the Software Factory. One of these is a report.At the moment it is not possible to download the report file related to this point in history. This is too bad, because often you would like to download a previous version of you report file to compare this file with the current file active in production.At the moment this is not available. It would help me out by a great deal if you were able to download this report file. Technically the report file data is stored in the history data, you simply cannot download it at the moment,
