Dealing with timezones

Hi, I was wondering what is the best way to deal with timezones? I noticed this comment: https://community.thinkwisesoftware.com/ideas-18/translating-domain-elements-556?postid=1643#post1643 As an ISV our customers are in different timezones. We currently deploy the application via Azure where we use 'UTC' time. But that isn't the locale time of the user / customer. We currently only use time for 'inserted on' and 'modified on' and 'print date' for reports. The times the user sees should not be UTC, but its local time. I was thinking about storing the offset/timezone (sys.time_zone_info) in the customer database and use a helper function to display the local time (bit like https://community.thinkwisesoftware.com/development-13/is-there-an-easy-way-to-let-the-sf-handle-timezones-for-one-server-1124). For now that should be sufficient expecting all customer employees being in the same timezone. Input wise we currently don't have any case of saving time-information, but I was wondering if

Line wrap in list view

Does anyone know if it’s possible to design a list view with for example a row height of 120 pixels where the memo fields in that list are line wrapped. I now see only one line furthermore only the first part of that line. With an alt_enter in the memo field I also don’t see the next line, even if the first text is really small.

A certificate is required to complete client authentication

I'm trying to get a response from a webservice, located outside our organisation. The site is secure (https), but other than that, the piece of code (dbo.make_soap_http_request in this case) is doing the trick on an internal webservice (http, not secure, Navision webservice). The parameters (url, username, password etc etc) used when executing the instruction below work fine when executed from my or another desktop (no special certificates installed by our IT department) when using SOAP-UI for example). Parameter @http_uri below contains an URL to a secure (https) site. exec dbo.make_soap_http_request @http_uri , @http_request_method , @soap_request_body , 'http://gateway.integration.volvo.com/soap/1_0/WsMqServices/processMessageRequest' , @username , @password , @soap_response output The error I get: A certificate is required to complete client authentication I have searched the internet on why this happens and how to get things working.

Synchronizing could not be started

When I execute the task “Synchronize to IAM” I get the following error: Synchronizing could not be started. User 'Rene W' is synchronizing project 'PROJECT', version '123.4' since 2020-08-31 13:50:09. How can I fix this? The project version is new and I cannot remember that I've started synchronizing before.

Refresh document on tab change?

Is is possible to refresh a document when switching between tabs (in the web gui)? For example when switching from Functionality to Domains, Domains should be refreshed (when not in edit mode).

Maintaining the SF DB

So I’m wondering what do you do to get a grip on the SF DB - would love to hear from you what nifty little secrets you do to keep things running smoothly and in tune… The current size of our SF DB is going to pass 100GB anytime soon. What is your size of the SF DB, and how do you maintain it? Do you keep letting it grow or do you drop stuff like branches or projects into an archive or something else maybe to keep the db from growing (too fast) How many branches and projects do you keep track of in the SF DB and do you just delete them when it has reached a certain age or? Do you have import/exports scripts for items ( i.e. projects or branches) that you’d like to share? Do you (re-)import the exports before doing an upgrade and then export it all again and drop the ‘archive overhead’ to make sure you can always ‘reload’ a situation as it was before? How often do you run your statistics? Every new branche or every new project or everyday or three times a day or after every merge or mayb

Is there an easy way to let the SF handle timezones for one server?

Instead of showing the database time, we want the GUI to show the time ‘at timezone’. Is there an easy way to handle this in the Software Factory? Maybe the GUI could handle the datetime at timezone, if we could set the timezone for the database and the timezone for the application (runtime configuration?).

Multi column lookup

For example, consider a table purchase_order with a lookup to an address table. The link is made to the PK field of the address table. In the purchase order screen, I want to be able to show fields of the address as separate fields. I know it is possible to work with expression fields, but multiple lookup queries to the same table is not desirable. Concatenate address fields is also not what I want. I really want to be able to display the address fields as separate (read-only) fields in the purchase order table. Ideally, the main table 'purchase_order' will get t1 as an alias and the address table t2 as an alias, etc .. Is there a trick to get this done yet?

Table task show and process flow

I have a table task that is part of an process flow. This task must be hidden because only the process flow must be able to execute this task. When i uncheck the ‘Show task’ setting for the table task the process flow stops working. Is there a good reason why this behaves like this?

Validation: The cardinality of the look-up is invalid

Hi, I’ve got a question about a validation message. Since the upgrade to version 2020.1 a validation message appeared which I don’t know how to interpret or solve. The validation says: ‘The cardinality of the look-up is invalid’ It has to do with the appearance of new columns in the look-up chain. I have a table called object_part_service_task, which I want to limit to entries within the table object_component_service_task, so I created a look-up with the key containing system_company_id, object_component_id and service_task_id. The column service_task_id is the look-up column. The table object_component_service_task is limited to entries within the table object_class_service_task and has a look-up relationship with the key: system_company_id, object_type_id, object_class_group_id, object_class_id and service_task_id. This last table has a relationship with the table service_task, which is the table that contains all the service_tasks’ The relationship here is with system_company_id an

How can I achieve that a look-up or double click on value in Grid opens a zoom window (or new tab)

Is there a way to assign a zoom window to a double click on a field in a grid? I have a list of orders and invoices, and I would like to have a zoom window or new tab opened when they double-click on the invoice-number for example. To see the invoice, details and costs. As an alternative to a list of detail-tabs.

is it possible to Toggle prefilters in layout of ctx proc

Hey all, I have a view with 3 prefilters. Is it possible to create a layout proc or ctx proc to toggle the filters on/off? [1][2][3] If prefilter [1] is active, I want [2] and [3] to be hidden. I do this with ctx procs for print buttons and tasks, but for prefilters I can't get it running. Overlooking something or is this not possible? Thanks!

Exception when syncing AD groups

Hello there, I have created a subroutine/stored procedure to have the AD groups automatically synchronized using an SQL Agent job. Initially this job starts up fine (every evening at 20:00), but after some time the job fails with the message below: Executed as user: {service account}. <msg id="not_authorized_usr_admin"></msg> [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 50000). The step failed. If I then manually kick off the stored procedure, the job will function correctly again for some time. Below the stored procedure which is used: declare sync_ad_groups cursor fast_forward for select usr_grp_id, active_directory_grp_name from iam.dbo.usr_grp where 1 = 1 and usr_grp_type = 1 open sync_ad_groups fetch next from sync_ad_groups into @usr_grp_id, @active_directory_grp_name while @@fetch_status <> -1 begin if @@fetch_status <> -2 begin exec iam.dbo.task_import_active_directory_grp @usr_grp_id = @usr_grp_id , @active_directory_grp_name = @active_directory_grp_name , @active_directory_domain_name = @active_d

Process flow in mobile viewer

Are process flows executed in mobile? I've created a simple proces flow that would help mobile users a lot when filling in a checklist… After update progress to the next row… That's all. But it seams the processflow isn't callled at all (in the mobile viewer; I'm still in the test fase). Am I missing something here or are process flows not executed in mobile?

Logs folder on Azure app service

I have the web gui on an Azure App Service. But I notice the “Logs” folder isn't created, and if it exists the files aren't placed there. I use this ini settings: Server = server.database.windows.netDatabase = iam-databaseRuntimeConfiguration = RDBMS = SQLSERVERMetasource = IAMLanguage = engAuthentication = rdbmsExecutionmode = developerCSVLogging = TrueLogToFile = Yes When I copy the GUI folder with the same ini to a local IIS application it does create the folder and a Debug.log on start-up. Do I have to do a bit more on Azure, or am I looking at a bug?

Is it possible in the control 'progress bar’, to don't show the 0% if the value of the column is NULL? I would like to show the progress bar, however when the value is NULL, there should not be a progress bar. When the value 0-100 is used, it should be shown.

Inline manual - onboarding users

This topic is kind of a follow up on this topic: https://community.thinkwisesoftware.com/development-13/open-a-screen-first-time-and-ignore-it-the-next-time-1251 Because our application is a bit overwhelming the first time you start it, or the first time you’ll use features / subjects in the application, we want to help the user. We’ve found a tool called “Inline manual”. A video about what it does can be seen here: https://inlinemanual.com/product-demo/. In short you can “walkthrough” a user, show tooltips to help the user etcetera. Easily explain some actions step by step what to do. Simple things how the look-ups work, how you can add records etcetera. First time users really need some help, and that could be perfectly done by such tool. This could be an enormous improvement in “User onboarding”. Please note we only use the Web GUI, and are tempting to use the universal GUI as soon as it is feature complete for us. As we’ve tried to see if it’s interesting for us we’ve encountered s

Startobject in IAM user preferences

In IAM it is possible to configure a task to be executed when starting the application. I've tested this and it works fine. It is mandatory to also enter a name for the Startobject, but whatever is entered here, it's all excepted… But I’m thinking of a way to not always execute the task, depending on circumstances or other settings.. A way to get this done might be creating a processflow instead of a task to get this done… This is also an option in the combobox, but I'm not able to select a processflow here… So, what is the use of selecting Proces here if it is not a procesflow in the application?? Or is Proces something else than a processflow in this case?

Report empty after upgrade to SF 2020.2

I’ve just upgraded to SF 2020.2 and noticed I cannot download / edit the reports: If I click the button (in red) and save the file, it results in a empty file. I did use the task ‘Upload images and reports to database’ according to the manual. I’ve checked the table ‘report’. The column ‘file_spec_data’ does contain some binary data I see, but when downloading it remains empty. How can I edit DevExpress reports?

"Loop" in last line

When pressing enter while adding/editting data in a list, you will automatically go to the next editable field. However, when pressing enter while editing the last record in the list, you will go to the next editable field in the last line. Our user thinks that is confusing behaviour. The user thinks he is making a mistake and his changes aren't saved. Is there an alternative for this?
