Azure SQL Database for Software Factory

Wanted to ask if there is currently in the plans, or if it is working already to have the Database of the SF in Azure SQL ? A Goal we want to achieve, is to move everything to Azure, and as a first step just wanted to know from DB POV.From GUI POV I suppose an on-premise machine or Azure VM is still needed and required.

Auto refresh table variant in Universal

Is it possible to use a scheduled process flow in Universal to refresh a table variant? I want to auto refresh a table variant using an interval, but i can't get this working. The "Auto refresh” functionality on the subject is also not working. That should be the normal way to do this, but i think this isn't implemented in Universal yet?I'm using Universal 2021.1.10.0.

Email queue with email attachments

This is an Archived topic. The solution is available in the Thinkstore inside the Software Factory.GoalSending emails from within your application is a common feature and can be implemented in many ways. However the traceability of sending emails from your application is often difficult. Therefor it is very usefully to gain some insights into which emails have been sent to whom and whether the email has exactly been sent. This topic demonstrates a basic setup for gaining insight into your email traffic. SolutionFirst of you will have to set up some tables. This example will also contain tables used by the Thinkwise Reporting Service. This topic will allow you to email attachments created by the Thinkwise Reporting Service. This topic will not explain how the configure sending emails with a template. If you would to know how to do that, look at this topic: Example email module. Create the following tables (if you do not use the Thinkwise Reporting Service, ignore the reporting_service_r

What are the rules for conditional layouts in a cube view?

The documentation is not very clear about conditional layouts in a cube view. I added a special column ‘conditional_layout_ind’ in a view for conditional formatting. The values of this column can be 1, 2 or 3. For the cube field of this column, I specified summary type ‘Minimum’. Now I want to have a conditional layout on the cube field ‘quantity’ based on the (minimum) value of cube field ‘conditional_layout_ind’ (e.g. Equal to 1).This does not always work well and I don't know why. But if I drag the cube field ‘conditonal_layout_ind’ into the values area, I get more cells colored.The problem is, I don't want to have the ‘conditional_layout_ind’ in the cube view.How can I achieve conditonal formatting for this cube view?

Limit integer field length or replace with numeric(n,0)?

 I’ve got some fields indicating an integer “Quantity”, and they have a min/max value to prevent excessive user input. For example a purchase order line quantity or a stock / inventory quantity.The problem is the following (animated gif):There is not really a restriction on the integer field, in contradiction to the numeric field. If you press and hold “9” for a while it will fill up and when tabbing to the next field it's cleared (unless it's lower than int.maxvalue).If you do the same in a numeric(4,0) field it stops after 4 times 9. In a user point of view this is more friendly: The user knows exactly what the limit is, therefore developing a default / layout concept is not necessary.If you do develop a default for the integer field, it won't be executed when the value is passed int.maxvalue. That is unclear for our users if you want to warn them about the excessive number.Thing is we don't want to bother our end users with a ‘random’ clear of a field value. We could solve this by r

Proces flow - open screen after set time or event

Hi all,I have set up the report generator, which is great. I also have an upload to Azure (developed outside of SF) which updates my Db with an online path to the file in the cloud. All is good. When a client creates a pdf (e.g. an invoice) with a task.The following happens; click task → insert in Table Rpt_queue → file is made. → File is pickup by magic → uploaded to Azure → File path is inserted in an extra column in the rpt_queue. An update trigger fires and send the file back to the source table (e.g. invoices) AND to a table 'Document Pool’. The document pool is where we collect ALL files on this account. Invoices, reports, bills, contract, etc.  Anything generated?  → boom, in the document pool. So, after the task has fired, we use a process flow to open this document pool in a new tab. All good. HOWEVER, due to the time it takes to generate and handle the file, the doc.pool is not updated yet. This takes on avarage 20secs. Is it possible to either delay to process flow with 20se

Menu items not translated (After upgrading to 2020.2 version)

I can’t figure out what’s going on here, but the tile menu items are indicated as not translated, while they are translated for sure. For the subjects the translations are given correctly..The first screenshot is the menu. The second screenshot is when opening [werk_rapport]. There you see in the top of the figure the translated words ‘werkrapport’ ‘werkrapporten’ ‘alles van datum’ etc. No [ … ] term to see. But on the menu they are all in [...]. We use this menu for about 2 years now so all terms are translated. But after upgrading to the 2020.2 SF I see this behaviour. I tried several things in the application but was not able to fix this. Anyone an idea?

Bug Universal 1.8 with number of columns in task-form?

In the blog  “New in Universal (dec 2020): More process flows actions, install as PWA, form column settings and more improvements” Erik mentioned “The form in task and report popups listens to the SF setting for Number of cols in form”. Looks like we’re experiencing some sort of bug, because using Universal 1.8 we only get all the fields in 1 column….Changing the setting to 2 gives an expected result in the Windows GUI, but Universal keeps using only 1 column…When the number is set to 2 it looks like the form starts with 2 columns and then switches back to 1 column (in a split second).I've tested this situation (and experienced the problem) using Edge and Chrome.

Unable to execute the AutoML get training options connector. The AutoML service URL is missing.

I've noticed the following ‘error’ in the Indicium logs (2021.1.10, but also older versions);2020-12-29T09:11:01.7549972+01:00  [ERR] Unable to execute the AutoML get training options connector. The AutoML service URL is missing.We don't use AutoML and can't remember we've configured or touched something in the SF. Why is it filling the log files with such lines? What can we do to solve this error? I want the log files to be clean.

Start process flow on key press

I created a process flow and have tested this with an initial task. This initial task doesn't have any code attached to it. Starting this process through this task works.Now I want to start this process flow by pressing a key-combination.After updating the model (from within the windows desktop application), this key-combination does not seem to work. Also tried Ctrs-Shift-Alt-H combination with the same result.Is there something else that I should be doing in order to start this process flow?

Store sensitive data

There are multiple connectors that require authentication either bij username-password or apikey. Since these are sensitive data I want these to be encrypted.These values can also change between deployments, as production connections are different than in development.Questions:What are the options to encrypt these data and are the advantages/disadvantages of these methods?What is preferred method with Thinkwise?

No new version Indicium (Basic) 2021.1?

Am I correct, to believe that there will be no new version of Indicium (Basic), but use the Indicium (Universal) instead as only Indicium?

No ... after text for a task

When you create a Task and set the vars to hidden, the name of the Task is fixed. When you set the Vars to Read-Only of Editable, you suddenly get … after the name of the task. See, BL… (with var to Read-Only)  And with Hidden var.  This look way nicer and less confusing. I cannot seem to change this. Anyone out there that knows if this can be done?

How does Conditional layout actually work?

Within Conditional layout you can have multiple instances. I get the impression that only one at any time will be chosen, even when one changes the font and another the background. It seems that there is an order in which the conditions are checked and implemented.I'd like to know the order in which the conditional layout are checked, whether the first match terminates further checks, how I may influence the order and how I can combine checks.Also I'd like to know how multiple conditions on a single conditional layout are combined. Do you have to match all conditions, or one of the conditions, or maybe something else.For instance I have two conditional layouts, one for font and another for background with different conditions. How can I combine these without having to implement a combined conditional layout.

Set max number of lines in form field

Is it possible to set an max number of lines a user can enter in a field? I have some address fields that I want to cap on 8 lines max (or the print pdf won’t look good). I can only find how large the field is (looks) and a max number of chars. But not lines. Anyone?

Triggers vs Process flows

On the one hand you can use a triggers control procedure for performing extra actions. On the other hand you can also accomplish this by using process flows.I'm curious to find out reasons for using one over the other. Are the Trigger-procedures old functionality that will be deprecated soon? Or are Trigger-procedures the way to go?When do you use one over the other and why?
