Dynamic links in help textOpen

Because we are able to show more tabs on one screen it depends on the cursor location what help text is shown. You have to press Help for each tab to get the full picture.I would like to have dynamic links in the help text based on authorizations, for the main document and the available detail tabs.main document namedetail document name 1 detail document name 1 cube view 1 cube view 2 This way it will be easier to jump through the help text.Now the icons are stored in the database, it would also be possible to use the same icons in the help (tabs, tasks, prefilters, reports etc.).Finally, we should be able to link all help text objects manually (tsfhelp://cube_view/device_kpi) .

Changing the background color of Cube dimensionsClosed

It is currently not possible to change the gray background of Cube dimensions. We are able to change the Font of the text but sadly not the background. Gray background of fieldsWhat I would like is that I can change the background colors for the Dimensions. This includes the setting of the Column background and the row background. For example: Where Consequence, Validation, Fieldname and Data are named, I want to make the background Light blue Where Standaard waarde, Leeg veld and so on are named, I want to make the background color White.

Enabling languages in a part of the applicationClosed

It would be nice having the option to enable a language on specific screens instead of the whole application. For exampleOur application is English based. Recently we've developed a scheduler for the reservations of our company vehicles. We only use this scheduler and vehicle maintenance for our office in the Netherlands so it would be nice to translate these fields to Dutch.   Translation for specific application screensWorkaroundOf course I know it's possible to add a new application language, translate the fields to Dutch but it's not appropriate to translate the entire application which means several screens will remain untranslated. Another option would be to misuse English translation objects by translating them into Dutch, but this isn't chic either.

Ability to give a Group (column) a background colorClosed

I would like to be able to give a Group a background color to more distinguish the parent from it's children. Below I've added an example. In this example it is a box around the text but it could also just be a background:   Don't mind the translation errors, this is a work in progress  It could use Conditional Layout where I give the Grouped column a certain background.

Update source of drag-drop taskClosed

Drag-drop tasks are a great way to create some user-friendly interaction between windows, even different tabs. Now there is a limitation though, when two tabs have no relation to each other the target of the drag-drop gets updated, but not the source. When copying a record this is fine, but when moving a record you would expect the dragged record to disappear from the source. So we would like to see the source of a drag-drop task update as well (when prompted by the model)

Unit tests: validation if Control procedures have a unit testOpen

Validation that checks whether all control procedures have a unit test.It is not necessary to make unit tests part of the project for every project. Wish to make configurable to make validations on unmade unit tests.

Hide lookup when column is empty and not editableOpen

Sometimes you want to give a user the possibility to display the details of a column value with a lookup for this column. This works great when the columns have a value.  But when a column is not editable and not mandatory, the value could be empty. Take for example a table with transactions. The table is not editable and the columns production order and sales order are not mandatory. I want the users to be able to show detail information of the sales order and the production order. When they have a value the lookup works great. If a sales order has no value and I (accidentally) press the lookup, I get a complete list of all the sales orders. I think in this case it’s not necessary and it could take some time when it’s a large table to lookup.I know it is possible to have a lookup table variant that shows a max number of records for a large table. But it could be easier by just hiding the lookup if the column is empty and not editable.

Thema - Menu ColorsClosed

Background gradient color 1When you change this color in the colors used tab it effects three elements in the application: In the menu around the search filter In the menu around the logo In the mainscreen as background color of the tabpages Application with the 3 effected elements in yellow My idea is to seperate the elements of the menu and the mainscreen. By doing this you could have a one colored menu and use orther/lighter colors in the mainscreen.

Database connector automatically map output to process flow variablesOpen

The input for the database connector can be several process flow parameters. However the output is 1 json string. So if you want to use the output you need to convert this back to values to use in the parameters.It would save a lot of work if there was an option to automatically map the output values back to the process flow parameters. This could work the same way the input works by declaring the process flow output parameters.

Providing access to a published app according to device type for Universal GUIOpen

There should be an extra configuration to be able to set the Device type which is accessing the specific published app in the Universal GUI and be able to set this config in the IAM.This will provide a more flexible configuration to be allowed in IAM definition of a Published application as a combination of having it for <User Groups><Applications><device types>. Example case:If User is inUser group 1 that is for a Mobile App with a tile menu and User group 2 is for Web portal tree menu Currently the user will access both published Apps if I define them as a separate Application and restrict the user groups default menu in IAM. I cannot restrict the User from seeing the web portal on his mobile device and vice versa I cannot restrict them from seeing the Mobile App on a Desktop device.Expectation is that by defining a User that has access in 2 different User groups/Applications that I can choose also the device type the user group/Application can be displayed on. Each User group can be linked to a separate menu or app  or device type. IAM currently is identifying device types in the Session Log but it is not part of any settings. It may as well be extended for such use as well.

IAM User details visible/editable from the Universal GUI Account menuOpen

Users are being created in IAM and their information is visible only to the Admins of the IAM itself. The Users cannot see the related information and does not have the ability to modify these information directly.The Idea is to provide the users access to that information existing in IAM via the Account menu in Universal and the ability to modify them.The user will be able to modify the available fields of:Name Surname Gender Profile picture email Phone numberAlso the User should be able to optionally (Configuration based options)select by themselves into what type of authentication they prefer from plain password to the available 2 factor authentication. De-activate their account. Delete their account.

Select or model the columns to be shown in the print preview.Closed

Sometimes users want to be able to print the list. This could be done with the 'Print preview' option in the context menu of the list. This works great, because it prints only the filtered rows. Unfortunately there is no possibility to select or to model the columns that should be printed. It would be great if we don't need a report to print a simple list.

Remember visible sequence numbers in a process flowClosed

I'd like the process flow modeler to remember the ‘Show order no:’ setting in the modeler itself. Now it disables the setting when you exit the designer.

Format the badge on a tileClosed

It would be nice if we could format the badge on a tile. When you can reformat the badge to a large font on a tile next to an icon or some text, you could create a smart dashboard with for example ' Number items open', or average wait time, average days sales outstanding, or amount orders last month, or days without accident, or whatever. it should be possible to format the badge next to integers even in amounts, decimals, dates or time. By clicking the tile you can see the underlying data. With this possibility you can make it possible to show the user the main points of interest and where action is needed. Instead of showing data and they can filter.

Alphanumeric sortingOpen

We often have columns containing alphanumeric characters. The sorting on this value is is 'string' based, so i.e. the sorting is then as following:P1 P10 P2 P3Where as a user would expect some alphanumeric sorting:P1 P2 P3 P10We currently work-around on this by having an extra hidden sorting column filling the numbers (P0000001) and then apply string sorting on the hidden column. However, when the user clicks on the column, the alphanumeric sorting disappears.Maybe a suggestion for this problem would be to assign a 'sorting column' to columns if necessary. This column must be a hidden column. Or just tag columns as ‘alpha numeric’. I.e. the column 'name' should be sorted based on the value of the column 'name_sort', which must be / or can be hidden.

Show a chart for an editable cubeClosed

I would like to be able to show a chart component for a cube component that is configured as editable. I want to show a chart and cube in the main subject with aggregated information (performance). When I select a cell in the cube, I want to show a chart and cube with detail information of the selected cell, in a detail tab. At this moment it is possible to show the detail information in a detail tab of the selected cell in a cube, but it is not possible to show the chart. At the end, it would be nice to be able to select a bar or a line of the chart and show detail information in a detail tab (BI).

Display a checkbox with an iconOpen

When the number of rows to be checked with a checkbox is limited, or there is a single checkbox, it may be visual more attractive to the user to display a checkbox as an icon (different icon when checkbox = Yes or checkbox = No). Example 1 checkbox Example several chekboxes:

Small screen element for positioning custom screen dataClosed

I have a suggestion for adding a screen element wich can be placed only horizontal in the top or bottom of the screen where you show some custom data fields. This would be very usefull to show some dynamic filter settings for the screen or other data which is not directly record related but subject or filter related.

Proxy settings for Indicium/IAMClosed

When Indicium is running on a server which is inside a DMZ, for which the outgoing connections are all routed through a proxy, Indicium is unable to make a connection to the Licensing service. This can be quite annoying when deploying a new IAM or upgrading, since the GUI apps become unavailable when no license is present, halting any possibility to test these apps after upgrading.Similarly, in this situation any requests done by the HTTP-connector (for instance in scheduled process flows) will also fail to get through when the DMZ blocks access to the licensing service.I'm not sure what the best place would be for these settings, I would look for it in IAM itself, in a global configuration or in Indicium's settings.

Notification inside the end productMerged

What we currently are able to do are putting badges on our tables and views. This can show how much records are in there or meet a certain requirement. Very handy but not sufficient for my idea. What if we could define notifications inside the Software Factory and when a certain action happens, let the user know about it through a notification? It's like you receive an email, you get a pop-up telling you that you received an email about a certain subject. Wouldn't it be handy if for instance an notification would be given if a new order has been received or receive a notification that one of your delivery trucks has almost run out of one type of product? The possibilities are endless. I would love to see a way to define Notifications inside the Software Factory which I can give to the users of the application at certain times. One way is to let the application give out the notification itself. But it is also possible to use the Action center of Windows. Example using the Action Center of Windows:
