The debug screen in the SF shows annoying behavior when minimizing and again increasing the popup.     In addition to the maximize button, it is desirable to have a button that can be used to switch back to the last settings (height, width and column widths). Or consider allowing the maximize button to work this way.  

I am relatively new using the Software Factory and I am looking for an option to change label names at runtime, if possible. At a certain point an option is selected. I want to changes certain label names of other input fields in the form depending on the selected option. In the database it will be the same column in the table.

For support it would be nice to be able to login to an application with the username of the one you are trying to support. (Without asking their password) In IAM there is a right simulation. Is it possible to use this right if are you loging in with a browser (using the WebGUI).  

the tree view menu differs window/web how can i change it  

Any idea when the 2020.1 version of Thinkwise Indicium App in the Google Playstore will be available? The version 2019.2.002 doesn't seem to be working anymore on the Indicium 2020.1.4.

Is there a specific reason why pre-fliter in Indicium don't work on subject which are marked ‘Offline available’ is true? As soon as ‘Offline available’ is switched off for the subject, the pre-filter is applied.

I have added a custom validation. The validation I’ve added is to prevent ‘localhost’ as part of an url in a http connector in a process flow. This works, however, the columns pk_col_1 - pk_col_7 are a bit of magic. As far I can see they are used to calculate what to show behind the tab ‘Related Object’ in the validation screen. In this case i want the related object is reflecting the following address:   I notice there is a column “Object type” which is not documented, but I think does affect what the values of pk_col_1 - 5 needs to be: But what Object type should I choose in this particular situation? And with what values the pk_col_ columns should be filled? I currently use this query: insert into validation_msg (project_id , project_vrs_id , validation_id , pk_col_1 , pk_col_2 , pk_col_3 , pk_col_4 , pk_col_5 , generated , insert_user , insert_date_time , update_user , update_date_time)select @project_id, @project_vrs_id, @validation_id, @project_id as pk_col_1, @project_vrs_

The document previewer is not working for this combination.  

Recently we have updated our SF to the 2020.1 release. The specification part has changed, but now I can't find the possibility to create the requirements report anymore. Where can I find it in the new version?

What am I doing wrong here… In Windows GUI 2020.1 the height of the tabs is enormous. Any reasin for that?  

Hello,  I am trying to configure the Offfice365 Exchange connector. When I've gone though the steps of the manual (https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/kb/exchange.html), and I run the SP: exh_sync_users, error 522 shows up. The error message is: “Er kon geen verbinding worden opgezet met de Exchange koppeling:  System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (0x80004005):  A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 10.0.0.30:9988      at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.DoConnect(EndPoint endPointSnapshot, SocketAddress socketAddress)     at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.Connect(EndPoint remoteEP)     at System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient.Connect(IPEndPoint remoteEP)      at UserDefinedProcedures.SendEvent[T](String exchangeServerIP, Int32 exchangeServerPort, DbToExhEventMessageBuilder message, T& result, String& errorMessage)” When I try to ping the given ip (10.0.

Does anybody know a good way to catch and prevent the error, when a file for some reason is locked for reading and processing? Executing API 'CreateFile' failed with error number 32. Error code 32 is ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION . So the mailer cannot read the attachment file because something else is reading it. Besides the fact that you cannot really reproduce it until it happens, I cannot really find a way to catch this error upfront. I am using the file_exists function to check upfront if all documents exists, and even though all attachments can be found, at the time of sending the mail at occasions you get this error.  The only solution I can think of now is to set the AccountRetryAttempts to 2 times to tackle this problem. But it's not the fanciest solution, anyone has experiences with this?

Until 2018.3 there was the post_sync procedure, which could be used to execute some statements after the synchronization process. The main reason why I am asking, is because I like to execute this statement after every sync: EXEC [dbo].[task_switch_path] @project_id = @project_id, @project_vrs_id = @project_vrs_id, @old_path = 'S:\Thinkwise\Applications\', @new_path = 'Applications\', @use_iam_project = 0 Is there any alternative?

I'm trying to convert a XML document with binary data to a zip-file via a self developed .NET Core 2.1 Web API using a process flow with a http connector. It's a follow up on this topic: https://community.thinkwisesoftware.com/deployment-12/moving-to-azure-sql-database-azure-file-storage-713#post2018 When testing the POST call via Postman and a simple .NET console application I receive the result as expected. When using the process flow using a http connector, it returns an error in the SF-Debugger: The remote server returned an error: (411) Length Required. This could indicate the Content-Length header must be applied, so I did: (Please note this is a fixed length, because the Content is also fixed value for now.) Unfortunately this results in an error: code:The 'Content-Length' header must be modified using the appropriate property or method.Parameter name: name at System.Net.WebHeaderCollection.ThrowOnRestrictedHeader(String headerName) at System.Net.WebHeaderCollection.Ad

I am trying to connect with a 3rd party API (Visma API based on Swagger) and for some reason I can't seem to get an output from the HTTP connector. For testing purposes I insert the connector output into a text file but the file remains empty. This is the debug error message in the application after triggering the process flow: code:Unexpected character encountered while parsing value: A. Path '', line 0, position 0. This suggests the connector output is empty which would explain why the file remains empty. If my assumption is correct then I don't understand why this happens. I have created the correct API call in the Insomnia application first and I get the expected json result: (Don't worry about data sensitivity because the data comes from a test account.) All the API call needs is a URL and these 5 headers (including a token). In SF I've set the parameters as follows: With 5 headers as a single value containing 5 lines being: code:Accept: application/jsonAccept-

I have a http connector in a process flow which communicates with a .net core 3.0 web api. The API can both produce XML and JSON: [HttpPost][Produces("application/xml", new string[] { "application/json" })]public IActionResult Post() If I do a call with no accept headers specified, this API returns the content as application/json. According to the documentation you can add headers to the HTTP connector: [ { "Key": "Accept", "Value": "application/json" } ] or: [ { "Key": "Accept", "Value": "application/xml" } ] To specify the expected result content type, so if XML is required, the last header should be applied. When I add this and execute the http connector it shows me the following message: The 'Accept' header must be modified using the appropriate property or method. Parameter name: name With a stack trace: The 'Accept' header must be modified using the appropriate property or method. Parameter name: name    at System.Net.WebHeaderCollection.ThrowOnRestrictedHeader(String headerNa

Does anyone know a good algorithm to search a string on whole words only. For example, look for order and not order_line in a query.    This could be an useful addition to code search. 

  I have a mobile application in development and I want to connect the mobile gui to the SF so we can see what we are developing. I already have a working connection to our test-IAM, which is located on a different instance . I am using SF 2018.3, Indicium To connect to our test-IAM I am using these settings: Meta source = IAM URL = https://url/mprod/api/iam   Where  mprod is the application in the IIS and the corresponding IAM is located at SERVER/test_instance.   I want to connect to our SF which is located at SERVER/dev_instance. This does not work. Now I have the following questions:   Do I need to make a separate application in the IIS to connect tot he SF? I already did so, and I called the application sf, in the appsetting: server = SERVER\\dev_instance ;database = sf_database. Is this correct? What will my URL look like? I think it should be https://url/sf/api/sf. However, this leads to a 404 error. When I try to retrieve the metadata (https://url/sf/api/sf/$metadata) I receiv

Is there a way to return the position of the cursor in a grid to a procedure. Normally the DEFAULT procedure is used for this, but it is not executed when you move through a grid.

I noticed when exporting a cube to excel that the filters, column and data labels are printed to the first two rows of the file. This has the effect that the first 4 as well as the 6th column of the actual data (from row 4 onward) consist of so-called merged cells. Is it possible to export without those first 2 lines and end up with an export that consists of only regular single cells, similar to the output of a regular grid? Quite a few of our users struggle to integrate the current output in their analyses.

In the new 2020.1 version I've created a screentype with a detail tab. In the screentype I've set the Show tab header to 'False’. I've used this screentype on a subject, with multiple details. I also created prefilters and a CONTEXT procedure on the subject, to hide or show detail-tabs according to the result of the prefilters. When I select a different prefilter, the CONTEXT procedure nicely shows and hides the proper detail-tabs, but WITH the tab header. Is this a feature or a bug?

In a main subject there are amounts for sales total and a purchase total (“Kale kostprijs”). The purchase amount is a total of a detail subject. When he result (sales total -/- purchase total) is positive (or zero), the result amount is shown in green, otherwise in red. After adding rows in the detail subject, the total of the details (purchase) is updated to 21.00, the result to -1.24 but the conditional layout for result is still showing green. Because it is a negative result, this should have been red.     How can I update the color of the column result (conditional layout) at the same time as the “Kale kostprijs” and “Resultaat”? The extended property "RefreshOnTabSwitch” is already set to “Yes”.  

How do i make a filed mandatory in the layout for a specific variant

We have an strange probleem with the popup field on the web by an task; In IAM the same problem exists that the buttons will disappear, so please advise me what to do?        

What is the trigger to update ‘modified on’ within templates ? I see in my merged version using Full model, item Templates that when I sort on ‘modified on’ some templates have the same date as in the previous version (Trunk or Branche) and some not. But when I check the needed changes in that templates the changes are there ! It would be much better (and more trustfull...) if every changed templates has the right (=last) ‘modified on’ from Trunk or Branche, depending the chosen merge-action. I read the topic  'How is code history in templates supposed to work?’ but I'm talking about the date modified in the template itself
