Universal GUI reserves to much room for prefilters

Hello,we have a group of prefilters that prefilter the status of a purchase order. As you can see in the image, the prefilters would easily fit in the top bar above the list. However, the prefilters are not shown here. When we make the screen a little bit wider however, the prefilters are displayed as expected.Is this considered a bug or is there any way a developer can influence this behaviour via the SF?Thanks in advance.

Missing sf_product_info insert script in Deployment package 'smart'

When I create a Deployment Package I notice a difference between the upgrade methods “Smart” and “Full”, also described here: https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/sf/creation.html#3-generate-source-code. We often have small changes, so using the upgrade method ‘smart’ is preferred, because a ‘full’ update is quite heavy and can take a while. But when choosing for ‘smart’, the script ‘020_Upgrade.sql’ isn't (always) created. I have this situation for example when I only change a query in a view (no model changes). Why isn't there a 020_Upgrade.sql containing an update of sf_product_info table generated when having only some minor changes?

How to use IAM user details within application itself

Hello everyone,We'd like to get user details in our application. This means, that we'd like to be able to link an IAM user to an application table. Say, we have an IAM role "driver". This role can log on to the application. The application has a table "driver" that links drivers to trucks, cargos and what not. In order for us to filter data for that driver specifically, so that the driver doesn't see other drivers' details. How would we set this up?As far as we can see, we can call tsf_user() from within the application. This results in a GUID.  But this GUID can't be traced back to any IAM user "out of the box". There's no username, email or anything recognizable. Are we overlooking something?Best regards,- Alex.

file upload control not working in Universal gu

I am trying to upload a file using a simple task with a input parameter using the file upload control. Using the windows and webgui everything works fine, but in the universal gui it does not. I tried to use a file system and ftp storage location, this makes no difference, the universal gui fails. Sometimes I receive a file_upload_not_finished error, sometimes the second error shown below. In case of the second error and ftp storage there is the following entry in the error logs:[ERR] Failed to get E-Tag for file path ftp://ftp.****.nl/test/2022-0267.xml. (88ca394d) Currently using:Indicium 2022.2.15Webgui 2022.2.14Windows gui 2022.2.14Universal gui 2022.2.14

Unit test input field length

I trying to create a unit test for a task where the user can input a xml file from an external source. I'm facing the issue that those files are always larger than the input field length, even if i try to minimize the xml as much as possible (unit_test_input_parmtr_overview.input_value = 1000).Is there a work around for this?

IAM login : Login failed for user 'test'

I have the same problem as in this post, but in another context.Some info about our application:Built for Windows GUI RDMBS: SQL Server  Dozens of customers will use our application (installed at their SQL server) Users are logging in using ‘Windows authentication’ We're still on IAM/Indicium 2022.2 (planning to upgrade) Indicium is running as a service process, listening on port 5000 What I want to achieve: users log in with their own name, so IAM application roles and rights can be used users do not need to be known in SQL security; so the SQL connection from the IAM application should be handled by either: - a service account; - or a SQL account; - or an application role.Question 1:How can I achieve this for the Windows GUI?Related to this, I created a user with ‘Authentication’ set to ‘IAM', and changed the password.I started the application using an INI file containing "Authentication = iam”. When starting, the IAM login shows but after entering username and password, the error “L

Lifetime of idle staged resources

In our internal application, we utilize Indicium Universal's resource/task staging functionality for executing tasks and updating forms with layouts and default values. However, a developer questioned what would happen when a resource or task is staged and then left idle.Say a client is improperly closed or disconnected (the active Universal GUI tab is closed, connection is lost, a power outage, etc.) just after they staged a resource. Indicium Universal has no way of knowing what to do with the staged resource, at least not through client instruction.Is there some default configuration for cleaning up memory taken up by idle staged resources? Is that something individual implementations should configure?If not, I would say a good default expiry time is equal to the lifetime of the user’s session. That way, when a user's session is expired, all their staged resources are cleared from Indicium Universal's memory.

Where is my SF Application after upgrading to 2021.1? Only see an IAM-application.

I have run the deployment suite for upgrading to 2021.1. I only had to remove a database role by hand, because that gave an error message. But after that, the deployment suite was run completely without any problems. I run the marked issues from the deployment suite and marked it that we do NOT use Indicium:When I start the shortcut I only see an IAM application, but no SF. I get the following error mesages:“Your license has expired. Please contact your system administrator or Thinkwise.”And after that I get the message:“This environment is not registered. Applications are not available because of this.Please register the environment using the menu item 'Register environment' under 'Settings'.”But when I chose to do so, I get the message:“Environment registration requires Indicium to be active. Verify that Indicium is running correctly on this IAM.”But as said earlier: I (and my customers) don't work with Indicium.Can someone help?

How to use e-mail address login on Azure

I'm trying to deploy an application to Azure using App Services and a Azure SQL database. We want users to log in with their e-mail address, such as user@company.com and john@doe.com both on the same application / database. The user id in IAM is an e-mail address and the users in the SQL database are also. Only when trying to log in, the login with the e-mail address user@company.com fails: Cannot open server “company.com” requested by the login. The login failed. When I add the database server address to the e-mail address (user@company.com@my-database.database.windows.net), then the login succeeds. How can I fix this that the user doesn't have to add the database server address? Please note, when connecting with this user via SQL Server Studio Management Tools it also requires the postfix of the database server address in the user name, despite the fact that the user / login in the database is only [user@company.com].

Allow user to upload multiple files or images at once?

Hi, is there currently any way to allow a user to upload multiple files or images at once?I have a customer asking for this but can't seem to find a way to accomplish it.I've seen this topic mentioned a couple times on this forum, but many answers are over a year old and non-definitive. Is anyone able to tell me what is currently possible in this regard?I'm curious about the possibilities in every GUI.Thanks in advance.

Exchange connector: SendGetAttchment @byte_arry is null when trying to save email atttachment

Hello,We are using the Exchange connector to process e-mails, which arrive on a certain e-mail address, within our ticket system. These emails often contain attachments and are saved using the sendGetAttachment + saveAttachment. However if the attachment is an e-mail the @byte_array will be NULL and will not be saved. Does anyone have an idea why @byte_array is NULL when the attachment is an e-mail?Thanks in advance.Greetings,Randolph

Power BI OData feed

We are playing with the Power BI OData Service Document endpoint that is supported since Indicium 2022.2.17 and tried to get Suggestion 3 from this blog working (adding table name and select / filter criteria after the application.svc in the OData URL). We are able to load the https://my_server/indicium/iam/iam/application.svc endpoint We are able to load the endpoint example as stated in the below image (from the blog) We are not able to load the application.svc endpoint including similar Table name and select or filter criteria and instead get an 404 error. Is this functionality not supported by Thinkwise, or is the syntax supposed to be different?

Screen option Hide breadcrump

I see there is an option 'Hide Breadcrumb' in 'Screen Types'. It implies that it is possible to disable the breadcrumbs in certain screens, which can make sense in certain scenarios.Now I have tried it but see no difference in the Windows GUI. I would expect that the space reserved for showing the breadcrumbs would be released for the remaining display components.  What is the idea of this feature?

Error using Write to disk feature

I have upgraded a project to SF2019.1. I am trying to synchronize to IAM on a different server. Since I do not have a direct connection I am trying to write the synchronization files to disk. Unfortunately I run into an error in the[b] i_sync_project[/b] Program object: [i] [Unknown action(Unknown action failed because the specified path is invalid)][/i] I am not sure but I think it may have to do something with one of the warnings in the validation: 'Background picture path is outside the project folder'. This warning is referring to a path specified in the Thinkwise_default theme.: S:\Software_Fabriek\Applicaties\SQLSERVER_SF... I am unable to change the specified path and deleting the theme does not work...it pops up again after generating the definitions.

Application usage logging

I would like to monitor the usage of my application. Is there an option to log what actions the users do in the application. For example i would like to know what menu items and tiles are used the most. Also i am interested to find out what subjects and tasks are executed the most.With this information i can optimize my application to have a better user experience for my end users.
