How to use custom code for upgrade code group when in a branch

There is an option to add custom code to the Upgrade code group to do for example an insert into a table. However, how do I use this when using a branch? for example if I have a table with 2 rows and during development I want to add row number 3.  trunk version 1        2 rows exist   branch version 1  2 rows exist   branch version 2  3 rows should exist    trunk version 2        3 rows should exist Branch version 2 is merged back to the trunk to create trunk v2 and trunk version 2 will be used to do the upgrade from trunk version 1 to 2. The actual insert is developed in branch version 2. Now I have two options: option 1: If I use after upgrade always then the code is in the upgrade script every release untill i delete it  manually. option 2 :If I use after upgrade from branch 1 to branch 2 then insert part gets lost in the trunk version 2.  How do I do this correctly? If I have to do it manually in trunk version 2 then it beats the purpose of the upgrade script part.

Testing with universal gui / indicium

Currently when testing development (SF) the Web GUI, my colleagues can log in using their domain account (COMPANY\User). Even if they are not defined in the SF as User (Settings > Users), they're able to log in.Now we also want the same users have access to a Universal GUI environment, but unfortunately they cannot login. Is there something we have to allow/add in the SF/IAM?I notice that they can log in on the Indicium service, but cannot do particular calls which for example the Universal GUI uses when logging in.I.e. http://localhost/indicium/iam/sf/i_ui_usr gives a 404.When logging in using a developer account I see this:When logging in with a non-developer account this is the Chrome log:It looks like the login succeeds (204), but there is something with permissions I guess due to the 404 on i_ui_usr.

Report parameter lookup

Hi All, I print a report, and that is all ok. However, I want to print a report with some language settings. So, I want my report to do the following: I give the parameter account_id to the Report Based on account_id I want SF to check in a table Account for the Language_id  Set this language_id in the Field 'Language’ in the print prompt. I've been trying for quite while, but somehow.. the lookup fails. Is there someone out there to shine some light in this dark world? Thanks,Alex

Support for System Data type - Hierarchyid

I was trying to use the Microsoft SQL Server system data type Hierarchyid. This data type is extremely useful for data that contains some kind of hierarchy. For example multi level BOM structures. However, when I set up a domain as a DTTP my context couldn't handle it and later on the mobile GUI wouldn't even start since it couldn't handle this data type(said the error log). My question is if someone can confirm that this data type is not supported by the GUI's (Web, Windows and Mobile)? If so I will submit an idea with further explanation why I think this is a useful feature.  See this link for more information about the data type: Hierachyid

Problem using tsf_send_message in Universal GUI

When using the Universal GUI, a tsf_send_message execution from a task shows the following message: "Stage task commit failed. Error: unknown_error_occurred”. When i use the same task in the Web GUI, it shows the message i'm expecting: “Invalid quantity, there are more quantities delivered then ordered".The response headers contains the following data (decoded string of TSFMessages):{"MessageType":"ApplicationDbMessage","RawMessage":"<msg id=\"purchase_order_line_not_deliverable_invalid_quantity\"></msg>","MessageID":null,"NamedParameters":null}The "msg” element is sent with the right data. The returned status code is "500 Internal Server Error”. Any idea what causes this problem?

Using task variants in Universal GUI

I'm using a task variant to hide some fields in the form when executing the task. But when i execute the task in Universal GUI all fields of the task are still visible in the form (even the indicated hided fields of the variant). The task button is linked to the right task variant. When using the task variant in the Web GUI, the hided fields are hidden (what i was expecting).Any ideas why this isn't working in Universal GUI? Are task variants not implemented in Universal GUI yet?

When are expression fields set (loaded/available?)

hi all,  I was wondering, can anyone shine a light on this.  I have a record (shipment - saved). I edit and add a Ship. This ship has some info like time of departure. These field are displayed in my Shipment screen as Expression fields. However, when i Edit Shipment, with the looking glass Add  a new Ship, insert this… the expression fields remain empty until I save the shipment. Is this the normal flow of things? It happens in both web gui and windows gui.  I of course would like the fields to be refreshed after inserting a new ship and connecting it to my shipment (so without the save). Who knows?!  Alex

Create unique constraint

To ensure that no duplicate values are entered in specific columns that do not participate in the primary key, you can create a unique constraint. A unique constraint automatically creates a corresponding unique index. Does the SF also give this option?

Static layer in Maps

Does anyone know if it is possible to add a static layer to a map?With a static layer I want to be able to mark an area that is continuously visible, but has no link with the records in the table. The layer must therefore remain visible regardless of the records in the dataset.

Scheduler calender colums en rows are transposed after update SF

Does anyone knows about a strange behaviour of the calender scheduler tool after the upgrade from the 2018 SF to the 2020 SF.See the screeshots below. The 1st screenshot is our production server. Application generated with the SF 2018.2The 2nd screenshot is the same function generated with the SF of 2020.2.The resources are now columns in stead of rows on the left hand side.The tasks are now columns.The time is transformed to row, which normally are the resources.And normally the time was horizontal - as a zoom-in of the date.But now the date and the time are become columns and rows?

Push via Indicium

Is it somehow possible to receive a ‘push’ message via Indicium? E.g. when there's a new file available that a client could download.For example when having a (C#) Windows Service that gets notified when there's new data available which he can download and process further, instead of continuously pulling for new data.

Open a popup screen over the resource scheduler

Hi all,Been fighting the resource scheduler now for a few days on the Web gui. Not all going as smooth as I hoped it to be.  Current issue is: I have a resource scheduler that displays a few rows. I want to create a Task button that opens another table as a popup.Is this possible on web from the resource scheduler? I can’t get it running…  Alternative: I could try a workaround with a popup screen type, but same same, I can’t get this running in the resource scheduler.  Any thoughts on this?  Thnx! Alex

Dealing with timezones

Hi, I was wondering what is the best way to deal with timezones? I noticed this comment: https://community.thinkwisesoftware.com/ideas-18/translating-domain-elements-556?postid=1643#post1643As an ISV our customers are in different timezones. We currently deploy the application via Azure where we use 'UTC' time. But that isn't the locale time of the user / customer.We currently only use time for 'inserted on' and 'modified on' and 'print date' for reports. The times the user sees should not be UTC, but its local time. I was thinking about storing the offset/timezone (sys.time_zone_info) in the customer database and use a helper function to display the local time (bit like https://community.thinkwisesoftware.com/development-13/is-there-an-easy-way-to-let-the-sf-handle-timezones-for-one-server-1124). For now that should be sufficient expecting all customer employees being in the same timezone.Input wise we currently don't have any case of saving time-information, but I was wondering if an
