Propose your fantastic ideas regarding the Thinkwise Platform to our Product Team.
Some ideas to improve the Synchrozation Process between SF and IAM.Remember all Connection parameters, since the session was started, because it is very frustrating to re-enter Host, DB Name, Username and Password, again and again. Per environment would be great. Especially in cloud environments with long, non friendly, values.Make the task parameter field at least twice as long.
In our current project we need the ability to save a report to the database. Because of the sensitive medicale data that we are processing we need to clean our database as soon as possible. After a client has filled a questionaire we need to generate a PDF with the provided answers. We offer this PDF as download for the client and later on need to move that PDF to a document management system.We have been told that the only way currently available is to build a API endpoint that generates the report and call upon that API endpoint so we can store the generated PDF into the database. This feels like a suboptimal approach with the potentiel that we’re exposing and endpoint that has access to sensitive data.Having the ability to generate a report and store that report into the database directly would be very benificial to our processes and I can imagine helpfull for others as well.
Since the 2020.2 version reports are stored in the database in stead of in a directory.As far as I know the reporting service stil requires that the report is stored in a directory. The stored procedure rpt_get_reports now needs a parameter report_file_spec.You should be albe to use a report from a IAM database. Then it would be required to declare a connection string for the IAM database in the INI file of the reporting service. As extra parameters in the stored proc rpt_get_reports the project_id, version_idid (if nulll then use last version..) and reportname are needed
From a back-office perspective it can be beneficial to see records on a tile, instead of in a grid or a form type of display. This ensures that a combination of data can be more accessible, without first having to click on specific details. Currently we only have the option to show a table, task, report or detail tab as a tile, but in this case, it would be preferable to also have the option to show records in a table or view as tiles in the GUI.For example: a production company can currently view their employee planning either from the perspective of a specific employee, or a specific project. They would like to have one screen, with a tile for every employee, that immediately shows the project they’re planned on and any possible existing comments/notes. This will provide them with a clear overview of the current status/situation of who is present and scheduled to do which project.This idea can however be applied to a variety of different situations.
Currently it's fixed to be a certain size and I would like to be able to change that, like with the Debug screen and Running tasks panel. That way I can see more in the monitor more easily.
If you use an Image combo in your form, the display value is shown in the edit mode, but not in the non edit mode. This is not logical because there is already space for the display value. It would be useful for the user to show the display value in every mode.
The breadcrumb of an Open Document (in other words: the selected record) is not very clear in the Universal GUI. The Entity name does display in a similar Font size as the regular menu and record Font size, but the breadcrumb info is displayed quite much smaller right below it. Our end users are actually complaining about this. Could this be changed to at least a larger Font? While you're at it I would like to recommend some improvements that would make us even more happy:How about having Entity and Breadcrumb info at the same row? F.e. Opportunities > Company A > Opportunity 1 Could this navigation information actually be clickable, giving me a quick option to go back to the Account to which the Opportunity is related or to the Opportunities list? Could it be possible to right click on the navigation and copy the URL, allowing me to share a deeplink to a specific record?
Can we replace the default icons of the Universal UI with our own icons? For example, the floppy disk for saving seems rather old-fashioned. And can we replace the icons with text? These are options to make the UI even more customer-specific and that can be very important for ISVs.
Since iOS 14 also iPhone supports the Web Authentication API, Android supports this a little longer already. This functionality allows users to login on a website (or Progressive Web App) using their device-registered authentication methods (f.e. PIN / FaceID / Fingerprint).It is especially useful for mobile users, who need a quick ánd secure way to access our application. For example for field operations personnel that has to retrieve information for their next assignment, or has to register hours/activities. It would be great if Universal/Indicium support this authentication flow as well, enabling a more frictionless sign-in!
It would be cool to be able to login with Touch ID with the Universal UI.
You can use an Image combo to combine an image and text in one field. This is only for a domain with elements and I would like to do the same with a foreign key. That makes the UI a lot more visual and it is basically the same UI concept.
On a mobile device, you can select multiple rows in a grid, but not in a card list. Especially on a mobile device, card lists are used a lot because of the limited space. It would be great to have this option too.
After upgrading to 2021.3 our SQL server get flooded by process flows schedule logging. After a week there are more than 600K records. Would be nice if we can make these schedule logs optional.We even had some problems, see;
It would be a nice addition if the Maps component would support the Geometric type Multipolygon. We use the Maps component and the Geometric type Polygon to show f.e. the ECA zones at Sea. This works fine with the Polygon type, but this then also overlaps with islands in that area. The Multipolygon would allow for ‘cutting out’ inner parts of the Polygon, for example islands.Multipolygon
Personally I think it's a valuable feature to assign reviewers to work-items that are assigned to me. So it's clear who is responsible for a (peer-)review of my work. This is also due to the current code-review that let's you only review functionality code, but is apart from work-items. Sometimes I'm assigned to work-items that are not related to code, but just supports a certain work-assignment in the project/customer case that needs to be done inside or even sometimes outside the SF e.q. screen optimizing, set_up theme's, migrating test_data, etc… One step further.. The assigned reviewer of the work-item is presented on the task-board beneath the assigned work person of the work-item. Second step further.. It's an option to use the standard notification SMTP settings for letting people now that a generation process has started, is also used to let people now they have been assigned as a reviewer for a certain work-item. It can also be checked under 'review settings’. If assigning reviewers to work-items is required.
The score for the specific parts of the Quality dashboard are now calculated based on fixed guidelines by Thinkwise, like if the percentage of comment lines is 10% or above you get five stars.What if the guidelines of my company/project are higher, like say 20%, then the score doesn't make much sense to me.I think it would be beneficial to make these guidelines configurable, especially for our SI's & ISV's.
We have functions that use views and views that use functions which leads to incorrect upgrade scripts in the deploy packages which in turn leads to upgrade errors when trying to upgrade a system. This has a significant impact on the time that is needed to create, deploy and execute the deploy package successfullyWhen changes are (being) made on a view and the view is used in a function is something that can lead to upgrade errors on ‘FUNCTIONS’ because the changed ‘VIEW’ must be available in the system before the function can be implemented. Same the other way around when a function is changed and is used within a view. This also occurs when tables are changed that are used in a view.We would like to see that the deploy mechanism takes care of this situation and results in a deploy package that manages the dependencies between views and functions, and tables and views.
Deeplinking to a processflow in a Thinkwise application is already possible. But when a user gets (for example) an email with a deeplink to a processflow that confirms the timely delivery of a work order, he or she alway has to enter his or her cridentials and press Login.Wouldn't it be great to somehow have a javascrpt or other solution in on the login button (or login page of the GUI) that recognizes the fact that a username and password is already entered and automatically does the login? The username and password can be stored by the browser, so for a user it would seem as if the deepling really is what it pretents to be.
The GUI supports multiselect deletion of rows for a while now. The default GUI functionality that deletes multiple rows performs too slow and even slower than a task that does the same delete actions. Selecting all rows in a grid (more than 100) and starting the delete function takes a lot of time to ‘prepare’ the delete. Eventually a pop-up is shown with a confirmation message. Answering the confirmation message with ‘yes’ will start deleting the selected rows. The actual deletion process also takes too much time. Triggers play a role in this too. We would like to use the default GUI delete function as a set (just as SQL prefers) instead of row for row deletion. The Software Factory could have a checkbox for it in the ‘Subjects’ screen that is called something like ‘Multi-row deletion’.
