🚀 Platform improvements for week 30hotfix

Hi everyone!We’ve released the following platform improvements this week: SF 2024.2, 2024.120240724 - Include enrichment run data in job clean-up The Software Factory runs a clean-up job every night to remove any jobs that are completed and where the retention period was exceeded. During this process, enrichment run data will also be cleaned up but due to an oversight this led to an underwater error, resulting in the job not being deleted. This has been resolved. From now on, the entire enrichment run and its parameters and model updates will be cleaned up when the retention period is exceeded.

file upload to Indicium

Hello,I am posting some data from an external source to Indicium. It works fine, so everything is set up correct.However I am also trying to upload a file. I am using a setup like this one:I have tried a lot of variations in the body of the POST (not just the one below), but until now to no avail: "Attachment1_name": { "FileName": "example.txt" }, "Attachment1_data": { "FileType": "text/plain", "FileData": "0x74657374" }Does anybody have experience with this?

Styling update of the Universal GUIBlog

Now that customer success is the focus of the Universal GUI, we can prioritize User Experience too.This blog is the first step, introducing quick win UI Styling updates that require no Model changes or changes in User Experience. Later, we'll introduce and discuss Data Density improvements and more comprehensive UX & Universal Theme implementations.In the past years a lot of features have been added to the Universal GUI, but in the meantime the visual side of this interface hasn’t changed a lot. Comparing our Universal GUI to other enterprise applications, we do notice that our interface lacks a little conviction. We want to improve on this together with you, to ensure that our ideas support you and your users. So please, join in the conversation and let us know what you think.We took the Insights application as a benchmark.The Projects screen in the current Universal GUIThere is a lot going on in this screen, which means our users have a lot of elements to visually look through.We

Copy all configuration of Table Variant to main subjectNeeds feedback

I would like to have a task to copy all settings and configuration of my table variant to my main subject.In running projects we often encounter screens that have grown over the years and have lost their efficiency. These screens need a significant overhaul in screen layout and available functionality. To overhaul a screen we often create a Variant in which we start moving things around together with the key users to create a more functional screen. This usually takes 1 or more sprints to finish.When the key users agree with the new screen layout. The variant should become the standard screen and should be brought live. This makes the current default subject configuration obsolete, and can be replaced.However it is not easy to copy all table variant information to the main subject. For this, I would like a task that copies all my table variant settings to my main subject. Just like the how the “copy table variant” task now does for creating a new variant.

Possible to have custom homepage specific css?

Hi!I'm trying to create custom CSS for the homepage but i'm missing a specific homepage class.The highlighted code below is the css class where the background image of the homepage is at.But this is different somehow per enviremont. The code above is the homepage class for our TEST server. The code below is the homepage class for our DEV server Even if you change to dark mode / light mode / compact view / comfortable view the css classes changes. Can you add for example a class “home” as an extra class to this div so i can create a nice homepage with some CSS?I want to add custom css because the options in “Theme” are not advanced enough

Extra release - Universal GUI 2024.2.12.3

This is an additional release for the Universal GUI version 2024.2.12. This release contains three fixes:A report now uses the configured "Report action" to determine the way the report is served to the user. With this fix, previewing a report works again, instead of the report always being downloaded. Note: when Indicium and Universal are on different domains, this fix doesn't work, due to browser strictness. We make a distinction between report action “PDF” and “Print preview”. Before, both options would result in a preview. Now the "PDF” option will result in a download. The latest Indicium release, 2024.2.12.2, is required in order for these fixes to work. Actions on a scheduler may have triggered unexpected error messages when the scheduler was bound to a subject variant. This occurred due to differences in the available columns between the original subject and the variant. This has now been fixed.The 2024.2.12.3 release is now available for download in TCP.

Opening a report in a process flow

Hi all, I am running into multiple problem with opening reports. I have created 2 views. 1 acts solely as the main as the other views acts as the detail with the right information gathered by code in a view. The reason for this set up is that with out it, it wouldnt be possible to get multiple rows in the same excel file. The screen from where the flow is started has multi select rows enabled.The first problem I am running into is opening a report from the main screen. When the report action is set to 'Export to excel’. The following excel report is opened. However, the report should look like this (this is a screen shot from DevExpress):When I change the Report action to 'Export to PDF’, I do get the right information. In addition, as you can see, the Dossier number that is put into the excel is not existant in the list from DevExpress. When looking at the view that forms the basis of this view, the dossier number 1470037 is also not included. My first question is: How do I make Exp

Way to hide all validation messages for a branch at onceOn the backlog

I have created a new branch. Consequently, I inherited 14,060 validation messages from the original branch. Among this vast number, any new validation messages introduced by me are obviously not noticeable. This compromises the quality of the product I am developing.I believe the original branch should be "clean," but in practice, this often proves difficult to achieve. Until that ideal is met, I think it is a good practice to hide all existing validation messages for the branch immediately after creating it so that I can start with a "clean slate."This can be done from SF, but it is a laborious task because:Some validation messages produce an error when trying to hide them, which interrupts the task. Not all validation messages are displayed, as a summary item appears for more than 25 of the same type, requiring manual expansion of each. It involves handling a large number of validation messages.There should be a way to hide all validation messages for the branch at once.

Show the sum of Badges on the List bar groupOpen

Badges are great for attracting the attention of the user. We’re for example using them to help our users see their pending actions in our ERP system. However, to see these badges the user needs to open the list bar group. This kind of defeats the purpose since the user now needs to search for the badges by opening the list bar groups instead of seeing the totals right away when they open the Universal GUI. IdeaMake it possible to show the sum of Badges on the List bar group, this way a user can easily see which items need his attention instead of only noticing this when they open a list bar group.

Color mandatory fields

Hi,Currently the universal gui shows a little * if a field is mandatory. Since this is not super visible, it would be nice if we could color these field, to have them stand out a bit more. In the web gui, this was quite easy. If this currently possible, or on the backlog? Thanks! Blommetje

Some improvements on visibility of open documentsOn the backlog

In the universal GUI opening (a lot of) documents can make the navigation panel cluttered and even push the menu out of sight: Some suggestions to improve this: Split the navigation panel in two panels with seperate vertical scroll-bars as soon as the number of open documents exceeds a certain treshold Add levels for detail-documents beneath open documents and collaps them the same as the menu tree with (automatic) collapsing and expanding Add context (part of the breadcrumb) to the title or mouse-over of detail-documents to prevent having to open a document to see wich one is the right one Another suggestion: An option to lock an open document, so that it is available the next time I login to the application

Structure code in dynamic modelsNew

For dynamic model with strategy ‘Staged’ it is important that everything that is connected, is in the same control procedure code field so that if something is removed from the model by the dynamic code, it is cleaned up without any errors. The result is dynamic model with many lines of code in one field that does multiple things. An example is the meta_view_history from the Thinkstore (Logging data available in the GUI), there is code for creating views, creating view columns, detail tabs, conditional layout and setting up roles all in one field. I think it would be an improvement if dynamic code control procedures could be separated into multiple code fields to be able to structure the code. This would make it a lot easier for maintenance. A possible way for doing this could be by adding the template level for dynamic model control procedures.

Multiple lookups to and from the same table

Hello, we have a specific table in which we store our contracts. There are multiple type of contracts, and some contracts can link to eachother. So, for example, a lease contract can be linked to a maintenance contract. We want to do this with a lookup. How can we accomplish this?For further context, we have a column contract_type. What I wanted to do is built a lookup reference with columns company_id and contract_id, and set the contract_type to the value it needs to be for maintenance. However, this is not possible. Is there a similar approach I can take that is possible?

Unable to upload file in Universal with add in grid enabled

Hi, we have a screen where add in grid is enabled, and we have no form. We are able to upload files in the windows GUI, but the universal GUI does not allow us to upload files. When trying to select the field where the file should be uploaded, it does nothing. Anything we can do to fix this issue? Preferred solution would be to have a button appear in the file upload cell where you can click that opens a modal where you can upload a file by dragging the file into the popup. Kind of similar to how the Windows GUI works.

Change detection in default editable list

Hello, As far as i can see, it seems that auto-edit in grid disables change detection. I’ve enabled auto refresh (1 second) I’ve enabled Edit and Auto-edit on the Grid I’ve enabled Change detection I’ve confirmed that change detection query works in the windows GUI.I can see that the change detection is called in developer tools on a record with a detail to an empty subject, but when i change te row to a record which has data in it’s detail tab, the change detection is not called anymore.Is this something that i’ve modelled wrong, is it a bug or is it something that will be implemented in the future, and if so, when can we expect this to work? Thanks in advance.

Add type to the database event log.Open

The database event log used for universal is helpful but it can be quite a hassle to find the query you are looking for. What would help is to add the type and object like in the Windows GUI Debug mode. At the top is info you get from the database event log (cropped for privacy/security) And below the Windows GUI debug mode. The Windows GUI has the added type: lookup and objectname this makes it much faster to find something.

Data modelling guidelinesBlog

Data modeling was originally intended as a tool for database design, but has become a fundamental requirements technique for business analists, as it is relevant for anyone working with data structures, application logic, user interfaces and business processes. The guidelines in this document aim to ensure that Software Factory developers set up high quality data models. High quality means: Consistent Logical Well structured Unambiguous This document has guidelines for the following subjects: Data modeling Diagrams in the Software Factory Data modeling To create well structured data models, a distinction is made between: Strong entities Weak entities An entity is strong when it’s existence does not depend on the existence of any other entity in a database. A weak entity depends on a strong(er) entity for its existence. In the following section Strong and Weak entities form the basis of most of the Guidelines. General guidelines The name

How to print a ZPL file to a local (Windows) Zebra labelprinter

Related to the ZPL paragraph in this topic:In our current application (WIndows GUI) we address Zebra label printers by posting a ZPL file to the IP address of the printer. The printing is done by Indicium (running as a service) from an application server, the user just creates a record in a queue table when pressing ‘print'. The configured address syntax for the printer in our application is for example: http://192.168.1.240:9100. This bypasses any Windows printer driver (which is preferred).Now, we also need to offer the possibility to print ZPL files to a local Zebra printer; meaning a printer connected to a PC by USB, and using a Windows printer driver. This printer can be shared (UNC path) to make it accessible to Indicium on the application server.That also means that two Windows printer drivers will be used; the printer driver on the application server and the printer driver on the local PC with the printer. Although this scenario is not preferred (because it is easy to have in

Please enter logging for system flowsWorking on it!

I have some system flows with more steps. If there is an issue with the system flow, it’s hardly undoable to debug. There’s no logging at all. I now created some logging in the application self, but with steps with no code attached it’s not possible to track the system flow in the debugger somewhere.

Universal: Hide prefilters + search in form

Is it possible to hide the search box + prefilters in the Form in the Universal GUI action bar?We do want to have them available in the list. But in the form we only want the CRUD + task buttons. I tried setting up the action bar to only show tasks + Crud and in the list screen add a search + prefilter bar. While this has the desired result, the layout is different from the normal action bar which makes it feel messy. Also the search box doesn't show the box but just a magnifier icon with a popup box this way:ListForm

Model enrichments maturity level

The term "AI" is now widely used to make our tools seem more powerful. While I recognize the benefits of integrating AI into SF, it does not yet seem to be functioning stably in all areas. This could be due to a combination of insufficient documentation, lack of validation, or limited personal experience.Here are two examples:Create a sample data model with AII recorded the description in Dutch (if this needs to be in English, please mention it in the instructions). The result after performing this enrichment is: "ERROR: The data model is not valid JSON." This error message is meaningless to me. Is there another way to zoom in on what is going wrong? ERROR: The data model is not valid JSON.Add comments to code with AIAs a developer, I currently have no idea what will be changed apart from the comment lines being added or revised in the template. It would be helpful if this screen already showed what is going to be changed by means of a comparison. Currently, you can only guess and comp

Process flow suddenly stopped working

We have a very simple process flow which adds a row to a rental_contract then turns off all prefilters and then should open the details of the just made rental_contract What actually happens is that it loses all its data after you add the row When i click on “BEKIJK” it opens a new tab with the actualy record How is this possible that all the data in the list is gone? It should be like this. I feel likes secretly a filter or whatever gets activated but that's not the issue Change prefilters is turning off all filters. Even without this step i get the same result a blanco record. Where did my data go i just entered? I'm clueless

Conditional formatting - Color and Font Settings by ExpressionOpen

Instead of having to create multiple layouts, we want to be able to control the background color and font settings using expressions or a selectable columns in the table.Our current solution is ok, but it is laborious for us as developers and limits freedom for end users. I don't know, but I can imagine that it also has consequences for the performance of the application if a topic has so many layout rules? How we do it now…
