Hello, I am probably missing something but when I am trying to grab an image from a table and set that in a task I get an error message. I am trying to grab the image from another table using a default. I set both columns foto_naam and foto_inhoud. Foto_naam uses foto_inhoud as storage location. Yet on the table itself it works perfectly fine.  As you can see, the column sees there is something, you can see the option to delete the picture. What am I missing? 

We are currently tightening user permissions within our IAM applications. Each company has its own IAM application with at least one key user. A key user supports IAM activities and is responsible for maintaining the role/permission structure for other users.We have reviewed the key-user responsibilities and adjusted permissions so they only have what they need. As part of this, we removed access that allowed changes to application-level settings. We no longer want to assign Main Administrator or Application Administrator roles to key users.Since these changes, key users can no longer access the “Effective user rights” table. This table is very useful for them because it provides a clear overview of what permissions users effectively have.Is there a way to grant access to the “Effective user rights” table by adding the required permissions to one of the following groups, without giving admin roles? Our key users currently have these roles:

Hi, Within DEV express I have built a document that generates an Excel file with multiple tabs. The DEV express report looks like this:The problem I am running into is that in no way I am able to change the names of the tabs in the Excel file. The name is stays OHW overzicht(number) for each tab. I have changed the SheetName and Name of the subreport but the name doesn't change.I have tried adding a script to the Report, but that doesn't work either. My gut says that in some way the tab names are blocked or written over. How do I change the tabs names to the names that I need? Kind regards,Mark

Hello,We are trying to configure a printer that is located on a different network than our application server, which is hosted on Azure. We attempted to connect using the printer’s IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, but this approach did not work.Could you provide some guidance or examples on how to properly configure a remote printer in this scenario?Our goal is to integrate the printer into a process flow using the “Print File” action to print reports. In this context, could you clarify whether the printer settings defined in the report configuration are relevant or taken into account?We would appreciate your perspective on how these settings influence the printing process.Thank you 

Is it possible that after a deployment to production has been done an email is sent? In this case it is to inform among others release management. the email should contain date time, who carried out the deployment, branch name, application, etc.   

Hello, I'm converting my Crystal Reports to DevExpress. In DevExpress Report Designer my report is working well. I get a fine preview report. But when I put the report into the SF (changing the report type en uploading the .rpex file) and trying it in the windows GUI i get the next message:Error when trying to populate the datasource. The following exception was thrown: Query xxxxxx failed to execute.The query is correct. I have tried it in the SSMS also and no errors.What can be the problem here. Other reports went well and I have to convert more reports.The full message is:Error when trying to populate the datasource. The following exception was thrown: Query xxxxx failed to execute.Stack trace:   bij Thinkwise.Reporting.DX.DevExpressReportExecuter.RunDevExpressReportCommandInChildProcess(DevExpressReportCommand devExpressReportCommand, Stream exportStream)   bij Thinkwise.Reporting.DX.DevExpres

We have a bunch of views which are 1 to 1 to a table because of we need more details in a subject. In the Universal GUI more details to the same table results in a “Bad request”The smoke test gives an error: Cannot update identity column {coumn name]This column is read only in the datamodel and is not visible in the subject.The view is updateable and we have a insert of trigger to handle the update request.How can we solve this error, or is this a bug.As far we can see this is not an error.

I want to retrieve a file from a folder using a Thinkwise application and move it to another folder so an external organization can collect it.My starting point is a folder containing multiple files. I am using the List Folder process action to search through them. I intend to use the returned JSON to extract the filename, read the file, and eventually move it.The 'Read File -> Write File -> Move File' sequence worked correctly when I wasn't using process variables. However, after adding the List Folder action, I am not receiving any data back.In my process flow, the List Folder action has a storage location assigned but no input parameters. The output parameters are set to status_code and json_outputWhat is the solution to get this working? This is the flow I am currently testing.

Is it possible to turn off prefilters that are set to 'on hidden' in the subject using a process flow? Right now, it seems like only visible prefilters are affected. I'm wondering if this is a setting I can change or if it's forced by the authorization choices.

Hi, To support display of certain texts on first or last page in our DevExpress generated reports in case of multiple pages, we use scripts to show/hide those texts. This is working fine in the Windows GUI.We implemented it like mentioned here But now in Universal we are getting an error that script execution is disabled. Is there a setting in IAM that scripting can be enab​led for DevExpress or is there another option to show / hide texts based on the current page number / page count?We are using the 2025.3 release of Indicium and Universal​​​​​​

Hello,I have a quick question about the recent release notes for the 2026.1.13 platform version.The new parameter in translations feature seems very useful, and we have use cases where this would be useful in grids. However, the release notes only mention tasks, reports, and forms. Is this feature also supported for grid column names? Or is this something planned for the future?Thanks in advance! 

In windows, when you apply a look-up to a subject column, and choose a variant, first a query is done for the subject, and then the look-up is retrieved with any variant ON prefilters applied.However, in universal, the look-up retrieval is combined with the subject query with a LEFT JOIN on the look-up table without any prefilters applied. (neither with a default subject or variant) I have a case where this leads to row duplication and consequently non-unique PKs. Was this behaviour intended/foreseen? To solve my problem I would have to make a view instead of use a prefilter, but it would have been nice if a prefilter sufficed.

We are looking into a way to add some monitoring to our Thinkwise environment, currently we check the public Health endpoint but this lacks some information we would like to have alerting on. Is there a way to authenticate via headers for the endpoint?

Dear community,With a recent addition of a cube view in our application, this is not our first cube.However, some items are expandable, and others are not. See point 1: this one is expandable.However, point 2: This is open, see the arrow on the most left, but it is not showing records. Although these records are present on a database level.

In all the maps components that we have, the maximum zoom level is set to 22, the maximum zoom level that our provider provides. If we zoom in on a maps component in our application in Universal, we keep getting html requests for tiles, and hence see tiles in the screen, up to zoom level 18. However when zooming in further, the entire maps component becomes gray and according to DevTools no requests are being made for tiles anymore: When we modify the max zoom level of the maps component to 18 and deploy the change, this seems to have no effect at all. The exact same behavior as described above takes place.We expected that trying to zoom beyond level 18 would not trigger anything and the screen would remain on level 18, since it is the configured max zoom level. Also we expected that when having max zoom level = 22, we could

Indicium is using a lot of memory when performing certain actions. But should it release the memory after completing said task? The top indicium has been stuck on 2,5 gig for hours without doing anything. I would expect the memory to be released when indicium does not need it anymore after a certain amount of time.    

I’m installing an upgrade ‘street’ next to my development street to be able to run a complete upgrade of the software factory / iam / iam_dev / Indicium / Indicium_sf and universal to the 2025.03 platform.Everything is running except for Universal which gives the next message:The current identity (USERNAME) does not have write access to 'C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files'.I have never seen thes message before. I just copied the Universal GUI in the upgrade folder next to indicium and I changed the config.json to "https://URL/indicium_upgr/iam/iam"I also changed URL to localhost, with the same result. I also tried the iam/sf endpoint.If I paste the https://URL/indicium_upgr/iam/iam" URL in the browser the result is: SQLSERVER_IAM 2025.03 (Which is corect as far I know)If I paste the https://URL/in

As the question states: when I try to register a session variable, it removes the dot needed. For instance for the session variable Session.base_url (for a custom component to use to decide whether you are in the live or dev environment), it removes the dot between Session and base_url: Is anything else but underscores illegal in this field nowadays? If so, how would I simulate session variables for the SF? I can make session variables for the test environment, as that's done via the IAM. But development is done via the SF, is this supposed to happen?

By default our application shows 4 decimals in Numeric fields, but we don't want to show any trailing zero's for standard nummeric fields and 2 decimals for currency fields.Our Windows gui does this, but Universal is always showing 4 decimals.How do we get Universal the same as our Windows Gui?

Hello all,I have a small question, is there a possibility to trigger a small and simple process flow per record switch? When I switch record, I need it to do a request to retrieve some data to use in a custom component. To further simplify said custom component, and to further simplify our code, I would like to ask if it is possible to trigger this per record, so only the necessary data is retrieved.

Hi,Indicium on our PROD environment is recycled every night at 00:00:00. It seems indicium sometimes tries to start up and delete and recreate the temp .rpt files while they are still being held up by the old indicium, this causes the startup of indicium to fail. We get this error at 00:00:01“Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.Exception Info: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path '***.rpt' is denied.   at System.IO.FileSystem.DeleteFile(String fullPath)   at Indicium.Startup.<initializeCacheDirectory>g__TryAndDeleteFile|21_0(String filePath) in C:\azp\agent\_work\1\s\src\Indicium\Startup.cs:line 281” In this case the old indicium was only registered as being shutdown at 00:00:08I have checked the rights on the temp files folder, the pool user has full rights. Does anyone know a way to prevent this from happening? I have found the

Good afternoon,Users of our (cost estimate) software experience an interface problem when coming onto large estimate totals: the number will not fit the field in which it is displayed (see screenshot). All the visible numbers are in the millions. Beyond the sixth figure, it is too wide for the field to display. How can this be fixed? I hope to hear soon!  

Hi all,If you're struggling to get HTTP/2 working in IIS despite having a valid SSL binding, the issue is likely your Windows Cipher/TLS configuration. IIS requires specific modern settings that are often not active by default.The Fix: Download IIS Crypto (Nartac Software). Run it and click "Best Practices". Apply and Reboot the server. Edit registry-key*, change value to 1 This tool correctly configures Schannel for HTTP/2 support without manual registry edits.Note for MSSQL users: Ensure your Microsoft OLE DB Driver is up-to-date. Disabling older TLS versions (1.0/1.1) via Best Practices can break connections for outdated

When copying a record via a task, can we configure it to automatically navigate to the newly created record in the IAM?

There is no function for getting the current branch_id right? In dynamic model code, the parameters @model_id and @branch_id are provided. In the full staged control procedure code I do not see how they are obtained. I want to write a script, not dynamic code, and use the SF and IAM DB, so I need to filter by branch_id.Is this a reliable way of getting the branch_id of the DB you are currently connected to: SELECT TOP 1 SF_BRANCH FROM sf_model_info ORDER BY sf_model_info_id descunless you start changing the connections between branches and databases, i guess
