For our customer we have to adjust a string. This requires a DLL written in C# that we want to deploy on an AWS RDS SQL server. Is this possible and how do I go about doing this with safety in mind?For parsing a barcode text field into information useful to the client, the DLL is written in C#. If the above is not possible, please provide an alternative. Thank you.

I would like to export a SF project with version 2021.1 and import it on another SF (on another system) with version 2021.2. What is the easiest way to accomplish this? I have read the article about the stored procedure (copy_project_vrs). But it seems this only works with the same SF version: 

This is an Archived topic. The solution is available in the Thinkstore inside the Software Factory.GoalThe goal of this solution is to automatically add trace fields to all tables so the user can see who added the record or who made the last change. This solution adds these fields to a separate tab page on a form. This looks like this in the GUI:  You can choose at what moment you want the fields to be filled: During editing or after saving the record.SolutionThe solution consists of code for Dynamic Model (for adding the fields) and two Control Procedures (for filling the fields). Depending on the moment you want the fields to be filled (during editing or after saving), you can choose  either for a control procedure for defaults or for a control procedure for triggers.Dynamic model add_trace_columnsThis code adds trace columns to every table.The trace fields are: update_user update_date_time insert_user insert_date_time If you add the tag 'no_trace' to a table, no trace columns

Good morning, I would like to have a conditional layout in a variant of a subject. With a default subject template, I would go to Subjects > Default > select the relevant subject > Data > Conditional layouts. However, with Variants, there is no option for Conditional layouts in the Data tab. My current workaround is to create a view that contains the same data as the variant I want a conditional layout for, then set that view as a detail of the Default subject. This is quite unpractical, and I feel like I should be able to set a conditional layout in a variant. Is this at all possible?Edit: I just found out that I can create a Conditional layout in the Default, then enable or disable this layout in the Variant.

When creating a new azure database from the creation menu it's automatically created in the highest pricing tier. This is since the Create database query uses the default gen5 tier.There seems to be no way to set a default pricing tier in azure. But you can use a parameter with the create database query to set the pricing tier.Is there any way to set the default pricing tier in the SF or fill in the service_objective parameter of the create database query?Related topic on microsoft forums: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/fd294936-06fa-4c23-aa11-d0b6836df56e/set-the-default-pricing-tier-for-newly-created-databases?forum=ssdsgetstarted 

Hello,i’m configuring Indicium (2021.2) on Windows Server 2019 with IIS 10.I’ve copy the Indicum folder and created the application pool. When I test Indicium page i get the error 500.19 : the page configuration data is invalid 

In indicium-Universal there is the possibility to run System-flows in the backgroundSometimes these System flows will run for sometime, (minutes or longer).If we need to stop the system (par example for deployments), I have to be sure there is no System-flow running. Therefor I need the following functions:1.    A way to tell Indicum-universal not to start new tasksIs the way to achieve this to run the task: ‘Disable schedule’ ?http://acto-D-upgradetest-EVO.acto.nl/indicium/api/20/disable_schedule Input Parameters:  {  "project_id": "EVO",  "project_vrs_id": "7.05",  "gui_appl_id": 26,  "process_flow_id": "create_iam_user"}2.    A way to find out whether there is still a task running.Can you tell me how to do this?3.    A way to tell Indicum-universal to start new tasksIs the way to achieve this to run the task: ‘reset_system_flow_schedule’ ?http://acto-D-upgradetest-EVO.acto.nl/indicium/api/20/reset_system_flow_schedule Input Parameters:  {  "project_id": "EVO",  "project_vrs_id": "7.

We currently use SF/IAM version 2020.2… Due to a lack of time, there hasn't been time to upgrade to a more recent version. I've downloaded version 2020.2 to see if it somewhere tells me I can't skip a version (just for checking).My question: is there a check in twdeployerGUI.exe on the version that is currently running and does twdeployerGUI.exe take care of what needs to be done to skip (in this case) one release?I can of course do an upgrade and see if it fails, but I'd rather know that it is possible…..

When accessing the Universal GUI from the web browser, Windows authentication is first requested. Only after ignoring (canceling) this pop-up will you arrive at the login screen.How can we get rid of the first pop-up?   

One of our strategic goals is to completing the DEVOPS spirit of working @Acto in an Agile way of thinking. This means that most of the complete development cycle has to be automated DevOps software lifecycle management @ActoCurrently one of our projects is working on automating and speeding up the biggest part of the generation of the deploy package, one could say that these are the steps between Build and Test, which currently takes about 3 to 6 hours for each cycle (without testing, just generating). Our goal is to have several cycles a day if not many more, which of course can only be achieved when (almost) fully automated   We want everything that can be automated to be automated. We want it to run mainly in the background.   It would be helpful if the whole thing could be automated by Thinkwise  – but until then, there are things we can do ourselves, but for certain parts we are unable to automate them in the process of creating a deploy package.   The process consists out

We're looking for methods to improve our build automation with the SF. We think we do a lot of manual and repeating tasks / labour which could be automated. I'm not sure if what is already possible, or is a feature request. I'd like to hear some thoughts and experiences of other users. As ISV we have experience with build automation, using tooling like Atlassian Bamboo, Jenkins, Azure DevOps etc to automate processes. But with the SF platform this is kind of new.For each release / merge we do exactly the same steps, which are all prone to fail because of manual labour. Once we have the deployment package, we're good: We can push this package to a GIT repository and pick it up for testing installation- and upgrade script, synchronization with IAM, running automated UI tests etc.But before you have the deployment package you need to do some steps;Merge the branch into the trunk  Run the validations  Execute unit tests Create the deployment packageWhat we want to achieve is that those ste

Hi,as far as I can see now, it’s not possible to have any control over the Badge value. Is this correct? For instance, i show total number of items. But when I turn on my prefilter ‘sold items’, I want the badge_value to show the total value that matches with the corresponding prefilter. Am I missing a thing, or is there a way to get this done? 

We are sending e-mail to users with 2FA. However, sometimes these emails are sent using correct html  and sometimes they are sent as plain text. See both images for the difference. Both have been sent on the same day, different users, from the same email provider using the same application and therefore also the same configuration.Where does this behaviour come from? Do I have to look at the email provider, our system administrators or is it something within the TW application? We are using Office365, TW platform 2021.2, webgui 2021.2.17 all hotfixes applied until 20211001 - Exclude deeplink process flows.    

Where can I find the maximum size of the logo on the login page of the web GUI? I can’t seem to find it anywhere in the documentation or in the software factory.

Apparently when select another record in a list with details on the right forces a DELETE ERROR according to/in the developer tool We never triggered a delete, we never clicked on delete, we never commanded a delete but it clutters the error list as if we’ve done something wrong as a developer.How can we overcome this invalid error in the developertools and extra network traffic?rgds Ricky

When I use the combined filter (search) functionality to filter a list of items, I would like to have the option to use an accent insensitive search. For example, when I want to find all items that contain the word “Citroën”, I want to be able to find those items by searching with the term “citroen”. Is there any way to enable this using the SF currently, and, if so, where do I find it? I would expect to find it in the subjects → data → search detail tab.

When I select my row, it gets due to the theme a brown color. However, some rows have color coding with the Conditional Layout. For instance, when an invoice is final, I make it green. But when I select this row, the them goes on top of the row, not showing the green anymore. Is it possible to changes this; so that the green is always shown?Edit; it works with only 1 column made green, but not the whole row. Is this correct?

In order to make targeted improvements to the performance of the application, I investigate which actions take the most time.I've found that there is a field 'duration_ms' in the table 'use_log_usr_action' in the IAM database for that. However, the field contains no data.Is this field created for future features or should an specific option/property be set for it? 

Hi in my Subject I have set that some field must be displayed next to each other.  However, when I make the Previewer Wider, this causes fields to be pushed on top of each other.  How can I make sure this does not happen? 

Since the developertools of Chrome is the dedicated debugger for universal development we are encountering this Unsupported filterCondition 8 error:How can we get rid of this error? Thanks, Ricky

Hi,I'm trying to understand the multi task execution via Indicium (Universal):https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/indicium/multi-row_tasks.htmlI’ve managed to get it working:POST /sf/appl/subject(key)/task_dummy/stageReturns a new location where you can add rows. For each row you call:POST /sf/appl/subject(key)/staged_task_dummy(id)/add_contextand finally POST /sf/appl/subject(key)/task_dummy(id)/commitHowever, the add_context step can be depending on the size quite an amount of http calls. This is exact what I would like to prevent with multirow task execution.Is it somehow to run a multirow task in a single http call, or at a maximum of three? I've tried to run the task without staging, but that gives an error in Indicium: Cannot change the value of the property 'multi_row' of 'task_dummy'.The application model prohibits editing this property.I think this is caused by the fact that the input parameter multi_row is hidden.I can think of an alternative with an API exposed subroutin

Is it possible to control the min/max date for a date picker? If the EDD (departure) is 12/11/2021, the EDA (arrival) cannot be the same day or even before. Can this be limited / controlled? And - I need this to be controlled not just on the date field, but also on other factors, like Modality and Direction.  

Hi,I run into a situation where I would like to disable a set of prefilters based on another prefilter.I have several prefilters to filter for areas in a warehouse. But now we need to add a second warehouse to TW.So I have another prefiltergroup that filters on warehouse. When I filter for warehouse A I want the area prefilters (together in a single prefilter group) for warehouse A to be visible and for warehouse B to be disabled and hidden. And vice versa.

Just to check, I can’t modify what is displayed on the message when I click the Red  X / Delete button?It now takes the bread crumb, combined what is set in Subject/Settings as ‘Display Column’.I like my Bread Crumbs, I just want to show the Display Column of current table. Would be very nice. I can create a Task, and that the user will delete with that, but still… feels like a workaround..

For a client we're currently scoping the development of a new integration to their system.This platform offers data exchange services between multiple parties. Their service is API based with the actual message traffic being send in XML. Because of the type of data being processed security is extremely important to all parties involved.It is therefor mandatory to sign all outgoing messages. Their documentation contains the following example on how to do this within the context op postman.openssl dgst -sha256 -sign ‘[private_key_name].key’ -out ‘[signature_name].sha256’ ‘[message_name].xml’If then asks you to base64 encode the signature_name.sha256 and message_name.xml before transmission.How would we approach this from within a Thinkwise environment?
