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.

Export (font) settingsClosed

I would like to have an ability (through extended properties for example) to change the standard export setting to excel regarding font (and if possible, properties like size).

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.

Special task with only a calender functionClosed

For tasks where you only need to choose a date I would be great if the task would show directly a date picker and executes the task directly or after confirmation.

Report with last changesClosed

I would like to have a report with the last changes overall. With (the name of) categorie of change, names of developers, date and time.

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:

A new screen component to show status information.Closed

I would like to have a screen component with status information. A subject could have a "status view". The status view is a SF-table that refreshes based on the "Auto refresh" settings. You should be able to customize the apperance of the status component in a theme.

Give a warning when manually deploying a view if triggers existOpen

During development or testing you often have to make small changes to views. Deploying an entire project just to make a small change to a view is a bit overkill. So often during changing views you also deploy them in the functionality - result screen. However, if there were triggers on the views these are dropped since the SF does a drop and create. Since it's not always clear which views are editable often the triggers are forgotten when manually deploying a view. The SF already knows there are triggers existing on this view. Why not give a warning to let the user know that the triggers also need to be deployed, when triggers exist for the view?

Search for a task in a Gantt chartClosed

I would like a search option to find a task in a Gantt chart. In our current version (2018.2) I can only search and filter resources.

Using a different diff/merge tool when solving template conflictsClosed

When a template code conflict occurs during a merge session it's possible to merge the code via an external diff/merge tool. TSF requires the existence of the diff/merge tools WinMerge or Kdiff3. We actually use UltraCompare as the default diff/merge tool when comparing code. It would be nice if we could configure the default diff/merge tool for the TSF.

Changable font and size of labelsClosed

Hello Community, I would like to change the font and size of labels. Right now it is possible to change them but you will change them in the whole application. Example: I want to change ticketnr to be the same size as the number 28. Kind regards, Thijs Holterman

Task option: only one running task at a timeDeclined

Please add a tickbox on a task to prevent a second task of the same task to run at the same time. I noticed that with the option to run tasks in the background this is becoming more of an issue. It would be great if there was a standard solution for this, instead of the need to program this in all business tasks.

Combine prefilter and tasksClosed

Lets say I have a prefilter for all issues with status 65. I'd think it would be a nice addition if I could configure a drag 'n drop task so that if I drag an issue to the prefilter, the status gets updated to 65. I don't know if that makes sense, but a coworker and I talked about it and I figured it was a good idea.

Validation untranslated objects database valueClosed

Currently, in the validations for translated objects, the object type in the tree is displayed with its database value instead of the look-up value. I'd like it to be the look-up value so I don't have to open the form to see the object type. Object type

Multi level UI - Simplified user interfaceOpen

To make the learning experiene as smooth as possible, I think we need to option to define different levels for the same user. In this way, a new user works in a simplified user interface with only the basic functions. After gaining some experience, the user can level up to use more advanced options. Without asking the administrator to change his user group. We could facilitate to with the definition of the difficulty level on a role-level for the specific user group. For the user group Backoffice for example, maybe the role to create a customer is a ‘beginner’-task but to create an invoice is an ‘advanced’-task. Ideally these levels should be configurable in IAM so if you want two levels that should be possible but also three or five. Configuration in IAM Then, in the end application, an end user can change the difficulty level of the UI just as easy as changing its display language. When a user choses the advanced level, he gets all the roles designated to the advanced level but also the Beginner level. The Expert level get al the roles of the advanced and beginner level. Change the user Level As an final addition the user should be able to customize his own level by picking and choosing out of all the assigned roles of his user group(s).

subject search bar for grid/form itemsOpen

In larger tables, sometimes finding the column in the grid/form list is just a stupid search. Would it be possible to create a search, that will highlight (not filter) the matching columns? In the right upper corner you type something like 'item_tracking_number’ and the matching row lights up like a Christmas tree!

Quick generate of all code groupsDeclined

The idea is similar to this idea:Only the above idea is for one table, my idea is for all code groups.Currenty after making a new project version, the code groups are not generates and that means they are not visible in the Code overview screen. This is a screen I use regularly to find all functionality applied to a table/view, tasks and other objects. Now I either need to Generate code groups per Code group that is present or generate definitions for the whole project version, which may also bother other developers in the same project version.A button to quickly generate all code groups would be a great solution. This task can then be attached to the 'Program Objects’ table. That way the Task is present in the Code overview screen.

Open menu, after Refresh Model in Mobile GUIClosed

During development, the task 'Refresh Model' is used often. It would help when the menu is opened after the refresh routine has finished.
