Questions & Conversations

Today I created a new role in the IAM 2018.2 database of our active application. I also created the groups and users. After applying this new role to the databases I received complaints from other users: many had permission-related errors. After applying their role (again) on the database the errors were solved. My question is: does applying a new role affect other existing roles on the database?

I think it should be called Subscriptions.

I have a list that I would like to sort on a Checkbox column (Datatype = Bit). If I Sort on this Checkbox column by selecting Sort in the Software Factory and give it the Sort order: Ascending, I would expect it to work like that the value 0 comes before the value 1. But what I noticed is that it works the other way round; Ascending works like the checked rows come before the unchecked rows and Descending works like the unchecked rows come before the checked rows. Has this been a conscious decision or does this indeed work the wrong way?

I made a form in which I want to display/hide some fields. After a tab task is executed, some fields has to be made hidden and others have to be displayed by the Layout procedure. This works really well in a Windows form, but in a mobile app this doesn't work. How can I force the Layout procedure to be executed after a tab task in a mobile app?

Last week we upgrade the SF from 2018.02 to 2018.03 and since then we have trouble with the performance. Our application starts normal but when we choose for the first time a (simple) menu-option the waitingtime is more then 6 minutes before it shows a result. The same after every 'refresh model'. Similar problem occurs when we start the SF itself, if freezes about 15 seconds before we can chosse an option. See the screendumps below

Hi, In debug-mode we see every 30 seconds a select executed which we can not seem to influence. The settings in the subject(variant) are not used (please noitice the screendumps) How can we (de)actived this or where can we find this (default??) setting ?

TL;DR: is there an extended property for user application authorization? My development environment and my user application database are seperated by a VPN and distinct active domains, with no username overlap. While developing, I am not running the user application via IAM but directly against the model in the SF. I have restricted access to the user application database, I have no say in the domain user names, or which to use. This precludes windows domain authentication when starting the user application. My work-around is to add an RDBMS-login to my SF database for a corresponding RDBMS-login on the other end. Is that the only way? I can not find an extended property that tells to give a second login pop-up or that allows to define a static user/password combination for the user application.

We want to use 2 factor authentication Our configuration consists of IAM database / Indicium / Windows GUI client The Indicum is in our DMZ en the Windows Gui client makes a connection through the internet (https) with indicium. I've read in https://community.thinkwisesoftware.com/blogs-21/two-factor-authentication-33 that in G9.8 there was no support for 2-factor authentication in combination with the Windows GUI. But time has gone by and I want to ask whether it is now possible for us to use 2-factor authentication in our configuration.

Why are earlier sessions still open? And could this have an impact on the application? We start the application via a Windows GUI with Indicium.

Can anyone explain why table task parameters behave different in cubes? It seems like that task parameters are only passed thru for primary key columns. Or are additional settings required for this?

I am confused on the workings of code history tab on control procedures - templates. The workings seems to differ from one version to another. The way I would expect it to work is like this: The template is created in the trunk, amended in the trunk a day later. The next day a branch is created and the template is amended in the branch. And the next day it is merged back to the trunk. trunk - create the template on 2019-1-1 in version 1.00 trunk - amended the template on 2019-1-2 in version 1.00 branch - amended the template on 2019-1-3 in version 1.00 (branch) trunk - merged the branch back to the trunk on 2019-1-4 in version 1.10 now in the trunk I would expect the following in the code history: insert - trunk - 1.00 - 2019-1-1 update - trunk - 1.00 - 2019-1-2 update - branch - 1.10 - 2019-1-4 and in the branch the following: insert - trunk - 1.00 - 2019-1-1 update - trunk - 1.00 - 2019-1-2 update - branch - 1.00 - 2019-1-3 what i actually get after merging is this in t

We have two badges. We see both of them in the debug when starting the application. One badge starts repeating conform the settings when activating the subject and stops when i close the subject, The other starts repeating immediately without starting the subject How can I prevent the repeating of the second badge ?

In one process step I want to check if a certain row meets some criteria. The next process step should depend on the outcome of the criteria check. As far as I understand this has to be done through the status code result (see attached picture). My first question is how to control this 'status code' from process action 'execute task'. In other words: How can I link a (output) parameter from a task to the 'status code'. Second question is wat the type and value of the 'status code' must be. As I understand it has to be an integer and 1 should follow the successful path and -1 the unsuccessful. Is that right?

The situation is the following: I have two reports. When I run both reports seperately on a collection of records, it will give me a report for each record. First a report for the first record, then a report for the second and so on. What I would like to achive is: I would like to make a process flow to execute both reports on a collection of records and then I would like to be presented with the first report for the first record, then the second report for the first record, then the first report for the second record followed by the second report for the second record, and so on. I haven't been able to achieve this. It appears like I am not able to cary forward the collection of records to the second process action. I hope my question is clear. Any help or hints would be appreciated. Thanks.

We want to implement single sign on (SSO) on our application. We are using the Windows GUI which makes connection with Indicium. We connect over the internet. The Indicium installation is on an IIS server in our own network. The ini file looks like: metasource = iam rdbms = indicium server = https://application-indicium.xxxx.nl/api The usernames we have are e-mail adresses and in IAM are configured as ‘Authentification type’ = IAM. We would like to use the Office365 authentification (online sign-in services). Is this possible and if so, how do you do it?

During development you often have a SF and the application running against the SF. However, both have the same icon. Is there an option to change the icon for the application when it's running against the SF?

This is going to be a lengthy post about the Resource Scheduler extender. Instead of making a couple of threads, I’ve bundled all questions we have regarding the resource scheduler into one. Extender properties Let’s start with the extender properties of the resource scheduler. In addition to the extensive amount of properties you’re presented with, the description of said properties leaves a lot to be desired. Most of the time there’s little to nothing added to make clear what a certain property really does or how to properly set up one. For example: As you can see the value type of the ‘Days’ property is Int. But if I, let’s say, enter 5 as a value and refresh my model I get the following warning. That leaves me with a lot of questions as to what format is acceptable in the value field. Another example of a description that raises more questions than answers is in the same custom scale subject. The Timespan format, it’s description and expected value type. Again, I’m no

In the Software Factory it is possible to select items in a tree view (see below). As far as I know, you can define a display column and an image, but not a column for selection. If I use a column 'selected' as in the example below, it will not be shown. Is this a custom screen? How can we achieve this? It should work the same. If I select the 'parent', all 'childs' should be selected.

We have to create detailed grid so how can we bind multiple values in that ?

EDIT: The order of the fields in the can be changed in Subjects-->Components-->Form. As commented by Henri Timmermans Topic can be closed/changed to question. Then his answer as Best Answer. ---Original Currently I don't think it's possible to change the order of the field in the 'Update' screen. It is possible that fields are ordered almost randomly. It doesn't use the List order so for an user it's very confusing. Here an example of a confusing order. I would like to be able to order this Update screen or at least it to be equal to the List.

When printing a report using the reporting service there's a parameter for the number of copies to print. I'm missing a parameter to select the paper source (tray). I want to print some document on blanc paper and others on letterhead paper on the same printer. Is there a way to do this? Thanks Eric

When you have an information panel on your screen the reload of this information panel makes all tasks disappear from the tasks/reports bar, probably due to the row loosing it's focus. Is there a way to prevent this from happening without creating a process flow to retain the focus?

I am trying to use FILESTREAM for saving documents in the database. I have a table containing these columns: The domains are defined as folows: When I insert a document using T-SQL in SQL Mangement Studio in the GUI I see the documents as expected and can also open them using the lookup button. When I try to upload a new document I get the folowing error message: This makes sense because the filestream_id is inserted with a null value, running the same command in SQL management studio without the field filestream_id and the null value works because the field has a default value (newsequentialid()). What should I change to make the GUI surpress the filestream_id field?

I have a problem with performance. The thing is there is a huge insert trigger which does all kinds of things when inserting an order. The insert trigger also inserts in a lot of other tables, causing a lot of insert triggers to go off. The strange thing is. The first time I insert something, the performance is just awful. The 2nd time I insert in the table, the performance is way better. I bet this has something to do with the SQL server caching stuff. An example is inserting an order based on a huge calculation took 13 seconds. The second time i did this it only took 2.8 seconds. We know this big 'trigger party' is a problem, but this is the way it works; the 3 seconds is acceptable, but 13 is not! I'd love to know if there's a way to see what is increasing this performance this much (like a cache) and is there a way to always achieve this? Like force caching stuff? Who can help me with this issue?

I created a new project, generated it, executed it. I want to start the application but keep getting this error: Invalid object name 'project_vrs'. I am using the SF, not IAM. Help is appreciated, since I have no clue...
