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 encountere

How to deal with show/hide password control

Hello, We have built a replacement for Wunderlist ((sub)tasks registration). This will be used by our Terminal drivers. They will use a tablet and the application will be accessed through the Universal GUI with a 4G connection. These tablets will rotate between the different drivers. They will log in with their AD account. Problem now is that you can see the passwords of the other drivers by clicking on the eye of the password control. This is certainly not desirable. This is an example, but I can imagine there will be more situations that this can happen. How to deal with this? For example, can the show/hide password eye toggle be turned off? Thanks in advance.

OpenID Connect - redirect and logout url

For a client we’re working on connecting them to their corporate SSO solution. Fortunatly the documentation the client provided us indicated that they support OpenID as method.In prepraring the request to enable connection to their SSO solution the client’s IT team asked us to provide the redirect url that would be used. As this is the first time using Thinkwise to connect to OpenID I’m unaware of what this URL will be and I can’t find it in the relevant documentation.Can someone provide me with this url?Let’s asume that the environment will behttps://sampleurl.nl/Indicium (for the indicium interface) https://sampleurl.nl/Universal (for the universal interface)

Export and Import a Project-version

What is the scenario to export a project from one SF environment and import the project into a different SF environment? One way is of course to retype everything: the requirements, datamodel, tables, gui, etc.. I think there must be a better way to reach the same result.

What is the meaning/function of columns 'View table' and 'View column' in Columns?

The columns are read only, but contain invalid values after copying them from another view. [img]https://uploads-eu-west-1.insided.com/thinkwise-en/attachment/d7f61989-61fb-4149-8255-d05a2bb96e52.jpg[/img] Is it an error in the software factory? Can they just be ignored?

HTTP connector output issue (I think)

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. [/code] 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: [img]https://uploads-eu-west-1.insided.com/thinkwise-en/attachment/08538807-a524-46ae-94c6-913a084810c7.gif[/img] (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 par

How to prevent "Request error. The object was not found. You may have insufficient rights or the object no longer exisits."

We’ve got a table task that enables our users to delete certain records from a grid. This task is triggered by a double click on the record. The user can then select a task parameter that deletes the record that was used to trigger the task. We then refresh the subject. The user then get’s the following pop-up: Although the message pop-up is not strange, since the selected record was deleted. It’s confusing for our users since the wording is strange and the behaviour was intended.What can we do to prevent this message from triggering?

Upgrade SF to 2018.3

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 [img]https://uploads-eu-west-1.insided.com/thinkwise-en/attachment/80c9780c-4403-4491-abb6-d5122ab614a0.png[/img][img]https://uploads-eu-west-1.insided.com/thinkwise-en/attachment/c79f50d4-8f3f-412e-ada9-37069d4f03f0.png[/img]

DNS resolving for two universals on the same server

While configuring two universals on a single web server, to create a setup in which the functionality asked for in the topic linked above can be deployed, we run in some issues.We like to setup a separate DNS record for each universal, such that depending on the DNS name the user is redirected to the correct login screen. Also on our development environment we like to have two universals, each using their own indicium, all on the same webserver, and have a separate DNS record for each universal.In both scenarios we face the challenge of how to correctly perform the DNS mapping. Our main questions are currently:what would be the best place to have the redirection take place? Users should just go to the domain name, without providing a path, and routing/redirections based on the browsed DNS name must take place which makes them land on the correct login screen OR the correct home screen, dependent on if auto login can be performed. to which path should we redirect? We figured out that th

Write file to Azure file storage

Hi all,I currently have the following set-up, which is just not working great. It's slow, complex, and it needs a kick every day to get going. The current set-up. Task on 'origin’-table does an insert on the rpt_queue (table). Thinkwise reporting service picks this up, generates the PDF and places this in an output-folder NOTE: the .rdl file is not withing SF, but from a repo (so an outside party can create the rdl files!) Our home-made Service polls the output-folder. If a file is found, it is uploaded to our Azure File storage. It's final location is given back to the rpt_queue and 'origin’ table, so the file_previewer can display the file. Upside = it's what I needDownside = it's slow and never works well What I now want to try is this; Create the PDF through a task (with the .rdl from the repo) Save the directly to Azure file storage Get the final uri from the file and show in the File PreviewerAnd - this all must be faster than ..say… 10 seconds max?

Creating IAM users via an EndProduct

The users in our EndProduct can create employees for their company within the application. We have a task that creates a relation + an employee record. In addition to creating an employee we would like to be able to create an IAM user with the information and credentials the user has supplied. So we made a subroutine called ‘create_iam_user’. This subroutine does inserts/updates on the IAM database. After creating an employee record the subroutine will be executed. But when it does, we get the following error in return. The users in our EndProduct have no rights on the IAM database and the ‘User Admin’ rights are not granted. I tried altering the procedure to execute it as OWNER or as a SQL login that does have ‘User Admin’ rights. After changing the procedure the execution (via SSMS) of the procedure succeeded with a SQL login that has no IAM rights. However when trying to execute the procedure via the EndProduct user we still receive an error. Why doesn’t the ‘EXECUTE AS’ method work

Dedicated handheld barcode scanner integration

Hello,I was wondering what integration options Thinkwise offers on dedicated hadheld barcode scanners.I know mobile uses the camera of the mobile device, but that is not always the best and quickest way to scan multiple code fast after each other.Are integration solutions already in operation with other clients? If not, how do I get the information I need to start? Are there multiple solutions possible and which is the best?Do I use a USB or bluetooth handheld to connect with a PC on which a TSF client is installed. Does it have to communicate through a webservice? Is it better to work offline or online?Thanks, Joost van Lier

View creation method

When I want to use a view in the application, there are three options: automatic, customizable and template. Normally, I work with a template but in this case a cube is required where the data is in a table. I was planning on making a variant for the table but that doesn’t fulfil the needs in this case. I thought it would be possible to make this view without a template, but this doesn’t seem to work. My question here is: what is the difference between customizable and automatic? And why is the field ‘view_from_clause’ not customizable in both? And if it’s not customizable, why is the content not emptied? Anyway, while generating the piece of code between ‘select’ and ‘from’ is left blank, despite I’ve defined 4 fields in the view, and they do exist on the table. What am I doing wrong? Why isn’t this work? Am I still obligated to make a template? See the two print screens below: [img]https://uploads-eu-west-1.insided.com/thinkwise-en/attachment/05cbcbf9-e8c9-405d-a9

Devexpress report perfomance in Windows GUI

Reports developed in Devexpress tend to run rather slow in the Windows GUI. Even when Devexpress itself generates a report within a second it can still take over 10 seconds for the GUI to do the same thing with the same report parameters. I’ve seen this happen in several occasions. Now it’s an issue because for a new module for our warehouse printing a specific report is rather time critical. A delayed print tends to interrupt the workflow too much.The desired behavior would be to have a printout of a report within a couple seconds instead of the current 10-15 seconds. A workaround for now is to make it possible to set the print command in motion earlier in the process but that is not a solution in all situations. It also makes the chances of human error a bit larger.Is there a way to find out why reports perform slow in the Windows GUI?
