Change the way date related cube fields are created in a cubeOpen

I like the way date related cube fields are created. But I'm not happy with the result. For instance we never use quarters. I would like year-month-day (without quarter). Another issue is the week number related to the year (1 jan 2022 results in week 52 in year 2022).    Now I have to solve this in the view and use for instance a date table. I would like to have the possibility to change the way, date related cube fields are created. Maybe with a predefined setting (extended property). Then I could just use the task to generate a cube with the date related cube fields I need (low code).

Auto-hide grid in Universal GUIOpen

When a target table as detail has the same primary key as its source table the Windows GUI automatically hides the grid even when a grid is part of the screen design. The Universal GUI doesn't display the same behavior and always shows the grid even when the data model directly implies there will only ever be maximum one detail record.I would like to propose an optional setting for the Universal GUI to copy this behavior from its Windows sibling. This would take away the need to comb through all screens and possibly having to redesign many, and allow for an easier transition to the Universal GUI.

Custom CSS tags with screen designOpen

Would be nice if at screen design level you could add CSS tags to be able to customize the default screen elements for specific functional screens. In the U-GUI we use a lot the card-list but sometimes you want to customize it a little bit different depending on the topic.

System Flow - trigger & parameterize ad hoc start (Event-driven)Open

We currently use a Scheduled System Flow to loop through an API message queue and process any new records that have been added to the queue. Instead of a scheduled process that is basically polling for changes, we would like to be able to trigger a System Flow to interface a certain record (from Thinkwise to a 3rd party application) or to retrieve data from another source (for instance when notified by a Notification service like AWS SNS).

conditional formatting against a subroutineClosed

Often we validate a field through a def procedure. I usually show an error message. However, a message is quite intrusive, so I want to show a different background/font color for this field. It would be nice if I can create a subroutine ‘validate iban number’ or - in my case - 'validate container number’. This subroutine will output a 1 or 0 (valid or not), and in the Conditional formatting, I can then select 'type of value’ = subroutine, and then select the corresponding one.If value = 0 - not valid, set the font to red. Not sure of my train of thought is entirely correct, but you get the gist of it.  This way I can reuse the validation and easily show my user that values are not correct.

Create and Assign Tenants in Software FactoryDeclined

Hi since we have the Default User Group, It would be a nice follow up it with the tenant system that we have from the IAM.This will help us configure the tenants in SF easily before syncing to IAM or deployment.

Add modern authentication to SMTPOpen

We use the SMTP settings to send Two-factor codes by email. We use the Office 365 service for the email delivery. To increase security we would like to have an option for modern authentication.See also https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/exchange-team-blog/basic-authentication-and-exchange-online-july-update/ba-p/1530163 for more information.Somewhere in the future the support for basic authentication for SMTPwill be dropped.

IAM ActiveDirectory Group Sync SchedulerClosed

Currently we have to manually sync the IAM User Groups when a User Group Type “Windows domain” is configured. This can easily be forgotten and also other people are maintaining the AD-groups then people who have access to IAM within our organization. It would be great if this sync can be scheduled so we can avoid that IAM access is needed in case an AD-group has been adjusted.

Closing an environment - Stopping System flows - trigger by api callOpen

I see that in release 2022.2 of Indicium(-universal) it is now possible to do a setting that prevents system flows from passing through this indicium. (A setting in appsettings.json { "Agent": { "Enable": false } }It would be really nice if Indicum would detect online if I change this setting in the appsettings.json, because then I could use this to shut down an environment.I suggest something like an API call to Indicium, which instructs it to read this value from the appsettings.json. And Indicium should then stop accepting new system flows. (already running system flows should be completed in the normal way)Of course I have to wait after this is done until all running system flows have ended.The way I currently close an environment and stop the system flows is to change the schedules in IAM and then wait for all running system flows to have an end time. And when I open the environment, I change all the schedules again.But the downside of this is that I have to change records in IAM.

Change control procedure is in development from Error to WarningClosed

Currently if a control procedure is in development the severity given to it in validation is Error. In the current version this will stop the execute complete creation if you have abort on error selected. In reality I want to abort the creation on errors like database errors or major model errors, not on a procedure that is not yet set to "waiting for review status". So I propose to change the severity for control procedures in development to warning instead.

On creation of a database also ask if a new project version should be createdClosed

When executing source code there is a pop up that asks if a new project version should be created. This popup does not show on the initial execution fora new database. In this case the same rules apply, it is still best practice to start in a new project version if you want to do model changes or other big changes. So please also show this popup on first execution of execute source code. It is still a question so it can be denied if needed.

Trigger (refresh) on cancel or close of popupClosed

Editing a record in a form, or cancelling/closing a popup currently do not have a refresh (or can trigger a process flow in which a refresh is modelled). There are situations in which you want this.Think about editing a record in which a conditional layout is triggered. In this situation the background colour/font will change on both the form and grid. On cancel the form and grid are reset to the old situation, apart from the conditional layout of the grid.The same is for closing popups in which you want to do some closing computations. This last one is something you want to do with a wizard in which you want to reset all information that was entered in the popup up till that time.

custom GUI-background colour (UP) per project/version to recognize screens from mixed environmentClosed

Is it an option to set a custom theme per screen (‘document’), depending on the project/version in which context the screen is opened?When having open screens from multiple projectversions/branches, it is very easy to make changes in the version that you actually opened to look up previous versions of something.The current dialog ‘it is not a development/work version’ is already helpful, but I’d like to set one colour for the projectversion I am actively working on, and then perhaps on different other projects/branches/versions another colour. If this is already possible, I’d love to read how!

Change the order of process flow output to first give task parametersClosed

Process flows have an output tab with the general and task parameters tabs. The general tab is the first tab which only holds the status code. I think the most used option should be the first tab since this can save a lot of clicks on a day basis. I propose to move the task parameters in front to be the first tab since this is the one most used.

Assign rights based on objectMerged

When assigning rights to new objects you have to select the role's manually. It would be very helpful if there was an option to set the rights based on a different object. Adding this functionality would remove the manual labour to find all roles that have access to the reference object. example:task A on table T1 has full rights for the roles role1, role2, role5 now there is a new task: task B on the same table. I want to set the rights on the same roles as task A. So task B would be full access for roles role1,role2, role 5

Hide the look up references in Model rights - new objectsClosed

Look up references also show up in Model Rights - New Objects. However the reference itself does not need any rights.  If you do go to the object you get a screen which implies there are no roles in the project. Since there is no point in having this object appear in New Objects. Please hide these objects behind a pre filter.

User Interface of breakpointsClosed

Why is the UI of the breakpoints different from the normal way of working? You now have a + symbol on the first line and every time you somewhat in that line the line is added. Deletion can only be done from the lint menu. I think this is weird behaviour and inconsistent…I suggest to use the normal naviagion bar to add breakpoints

Location awereness in code contextOpen

Wouldn't it be nice if we have knowledge on the location of a task in the code context?  Now I have tasks that are coupled to more tables en views and there is not easy way to have this knowledge to work with in a default, layout and task.

Use developer mode in IAM instead of ini-parameter executionmode=developerCompleted

I found the setting ‘Developer mode’ in IAM. In the Windows GUI this gives you the extra tab ‘Developer’. Unfortunatelly you won't get debug information. It would be nice if the developer mode in IAM works the same as the ini-parameter setting.

Difference for hiding tasks between grid and formMerged

We would like to be able to hide a task on a form but show it on the task bar of the grid. I understand this is not possible right now but would be great. For example, we have a task for creating a XML export of a list of records. It makes no sense for this task to be available on the form. Of course, I’m still open to suggestions if someone has solution.

IMAP connectorOpen

I would like to access email using IMAP. Is that a possibility somehow or something Thinkwise is considering, like an IMAP connector of some sorts? I know of the alternatives (exchange connector, MS Graph/OAuth2.0) but I was wondering whether Thinkwise could offer this as an alternative.

Make it more clear if a process procedure is usedMerged

When developing a process flow, in the design screen it would be very usefull to have a viausal indication when a process procedure is used in a process step. Now you have to go to the step to check, and then going back to the design (which takes a bit of time rebuilding the screen).There is no visual indication that a process procedure is being used on a step.

Support to Delete files from AWS/Azure/FTP File Storage locationsOpen

For the File Storage locations AWS / Azure / FTP there is no standard supported way to delete files. For File Storage location FileSystem a Process action is available to delete files. We would like to be able to use the same/a similar Process action to delete files from other locations for (at least) the following reasons:Integrity & Clean-up: if there is no reference to a file from any record in the Database, there is no use in keeping the file, while still costing us storage capacity GDPR: a potential request based on the right to be forgotten requires to delete both records and files which are related to personally identifiable information of the requestor

Multi-select: Checkbox support for non-touch devicesOpen

SituationIn some processes the user needs to select multiple rows to process at once. For example generating a sales invoice based on multiple invoicing periods.We can support these action with the default multi select action in the interface. Only on desktop devices you need to Ctrl + Click on all the individual rows. This isn’t the most easy to use action for some users. In case of a miss click you lose your selection and with the different colors it isn’t always clear what your selection is. SolutionThe solution is already at hand; put a checkbox before every row like we do for touch devices.It would be great if the user has this action available in the non-touch version of Universal as well. I would be even better if we, the developers, could setup the subject to show them by default.
