Batch update in grid - selected rows / all rows

In Windows GUI you can do an upgrade for selection / all rows in grid / all rows, in Universal GUI this option is not available. So, a user has to perform this action for each pageBy the way, looking at the translation: all rows in the table suggest all rows in the DB, but it is actually all rows within context / selection. Our DB has > 200k rows for this table.

Usage of Local Time

We, as shipping company, have users which have to log their vessel activities. Our vessels cross the sea and travel all over the world, meaning they travel through different timezones. All our datetime fields are being logged in UTC time, however it would be easier for our users to log in Local Time based on the selected port. Lets say, the Captain of the Vessel wants to log their Departure in port “Taicang”. Now the Captain needs to calculate the time in UTC before being able to log their activity. It would be much easier for them to log in Local Time, so that we calculate the UTC time for them. We also have “Planners” who would like to communicate with Local Time towards the Captains. In short, we would like to make use of Local Time in a lot of places within our application. While doing research I found the following methods to calculate from/and to Local Time. Use of a query like follows: SELECT @UtcTime AT TIME ZONE 'China Standard Time' AS TaicangTime Downside: In some port

Open ID setup

Hi all. We have become quite experienced with the use of Thinkwise and a lowcode tool for native applications, and I'd love to combine the power of the two making Thinkwise the leading application where flutterflow connects using the openid for authentication.  Problem is, after hours of youtube videos and documentations, I still don't feel I grasp the logic enough to turn that into an implementation. I hope someone here is able to give a light:Example of one of the things I'd like to do: We created a solution where one of the functionalities is the hour registration on projects. This is done in Thinkwise, and we configured the SSO using openid connected to microsoft ENTRA. This works really well. I'd like to create a webapp with flutterflow where can simplify the registration of the activities via mobile phone. we have configured thinkwise to a point we have the openid-config (attached) From this point I have quite an open question: Now what? I'd love to have a help to get it going in

IAM - OpenID Providers roles claim is sometimes missing.

I have set up an OpenID provider in IAM, allowing users to log in to the application via SSO. Now, I want to link user groups to this role using the 'roles' claim.I am facing an issue, and I think it might be related to the number of roles assigned to a user, as in some cases, there are quite a lot of them, but it could also be something else. For some users, I see a long list of roles where I could filter by ID to find the correct role, but for other users, I don’t receive any role claim at all, even though these are configured in their Azure AD. Does anyone happen to know what might be causing this?

User Management via end application

Hello, We have a use case in which we want users of our developed end applciation to be able to add new users and manage the access level of those users. We would not like to give those users access to IAM, because there is a possibility we want users from our customers to be able to do this. We know of the IAM API layer which you can use to:Add users to IAM Add a new user group Assign roles to a user groupWe are interested to know how far we can go with this API layer. Can we for example also create a new role in which we can grant access to very specific columns in a table? Or do those roles always have to be predefined in the SF, whereas we can only assign those predefined roles to existing or newly created user groups? Thanks in advance. If the question needs more clarification please let me know.

copy text from grid in Universal GUI

If I select a single property in the grid to copy this, it copies the whole row.So when I paste my text which I selected and copied, it paste all values of that row  By the way: if you select text from a multiline field (with word wrap), copy works.

Web Connector how to deal with form-data response.

I have an API that I call to extract certain pages from a PDF. The request seems to be ok. However I get a response in form-data back and I'm stock on how to process. < HTTP/1.1 200 OK< Date: Tue, 01 Oct 2024 14:36:40 GMT< Content-Type: application/pdf< Content-Disposition: form-data; name="attachment"; filename="QUERO%20QUERO%201S24_rearranged.pdf"< Content-Length: 518605Now I fetch it with @document_data, but it needs treatment to be correct. The previewer cannot read it because probably the content-disposition header should be stripped?

control date output from date picker control

I have a Crystal Report that expects 2 dates as parameters.When I run a trace on the db using an extended event I can see what query the Crystal Repost is executing:exec "VMS"."dbo"."reporting_price_and_purchasing_headerinfo_v2";1 9, 1, N'1-1-2020', N'29-8-2024'The problem seems to be in the formatting of the date which is dd-mm-yyyy while the SP expects a DATE which is yyyy-mm-ddWhen I run the CR report manually and enter 2020-01-01 and 2024-08-28 as dates the trace shows:EXEC "VMS"."dbo"."reporting_price_and_purchasing_headerinfo_v2";1 9, 1, N'2020-01-01', N'2024-08-29'And the report shows the correct data.But how can I force the date picker in my Thinkwise application to output the selected date as yyyy-mm-dd rather than the more human readable (on this side of the big Atlantic puddle) dd-mm-yyyy?This question is related to my previous topic but the focus shifted from debugging to fixing a specific issue.

Access Token MS Graph

Hi, I am looking for an option to retrieve an access token for MS Graph.In the SF I have defined an OAuth server connection and I log into the SF app using a Microsoft Account.The Oauth user login process action has an output variable "Access token” but even if I'm connected with MS account, i get a redirect to log in again. Is there any option for me to use or generate an access token when i’m connected with Microsoft without having any redirectons or pop-ups and also get it for later usage? Also, the "OAuth server login connector” provides with a token that I cannot use since it does not have delegated permissions. Kind regards,Paul

Copy base model into work model (without linking)

Hello,I am wondering if it is possible to copy a base model into an existing work model without linking the base model. I have some use cases in which I want to copy parts of a model into another work model and from there customize the base model to the requirements for that specific work model. If I would do such a thing with a base model link, I would have to change the base model and this would impact all of the work models to which the base model is linked.I tried this with exporting the base model and importing it in the work model, but then it has no shared origin branch and I am not able to merge the models.The only thing I did not try yet is to branch the base model, customize it to a specific work model and then link this branch from the base model to the work model?Best regards,Nick Janssen

Data density in the Universal GUIBlog

During our work on the Universal GUI Styling Update, we’ve had several discussions and deep-dives about topics like the form and grid suggestions of the Styling blog with some of you. In those meetings, and as an extra assignment, we investigated improving the data density of our Universal GUI. A common topic on the Community and during conversations is that predominantly the height of several components demands too much space.Our challenge from the perspective of UX is finding the balance between functional presented data and preventing a visual cluttered interface. We are in the midst of trying to reduce the height of components such as form fields and grid rows, but we also think that we have to look into other options, where data may be offered in a different way.Let’s take a look at the suggestions in order of expected impact. Grid elementsThe current Universal default row height is 36px. We want to bring that down to a default of 28px.On the left, the current Universal Grid (defa

Problems creating an SF read-only role

I’m trying to create a full copy of the ‘software_development’ role for the SF into a new read-only role.Why? Because are support team and business analists want to explore the models built in the SF and may be able to find possible reasons something isn’t working.But we want to have a safety built in that prevents accidental insert/updates/deletes. I want the new role to only have read rights to all SF screens:Tables to read-only Editable column read-only No tasksThe script that I’ve created copies all role rights and changes it to our specific needs. All menu items seem to work fine, however I cant choose or switch a branch.I’ve figured out that a start object opens the ‘check_sf_upgrade_msg’ task and has a process flow that opens the ‘set_branch’ task. I already tried to assign rights to these tasks and the corresponding process flows but now I get an error after opening the SF: Am I missing something?Are there any plans to create a read-only role on the SF in future releases?Our pl

multiple edit modi in one screen

I have the following 2 tables in one screen: ‘Staffels’ is a child of ‘staffel afspraken’. Depending on the input in the main table, a variant of the child table is used: for several configurations in the main table I need to fill oput different columns in the child table. We do this by using different variants of the child table to display different columns. In this case it is unwanted to have both tables in edit mode: how can I prevent this from happening?

model_version vs version_name vs branch

Hi,Since this summer we work with the new model/branch process. We deployed our products always with a modelversion, like 1.140. Now we state this versioning in the new ‘version_name’ in de model settings.  When I synchronize this to IAM, I see an option to sync as a different branch, but we can update the MAIN branch. So in IAM the model/branch looks like this. Can’t see the actual version_name here? When I create a deployment package, I check the version name:I use this package in a customer environment, I get the version name as Branch: Why is the branch replaced by the version name of the model? Why is this different from syncing to IAM?

The scheduler gives me the wrong date

Hello everyone,In our application we have a scheduler, this scheduler gives the wrong start date when I start it up. It interprets the date 9-10-2024 as the 10th of September, and not as the 9th of October. This is confusing and because of this, I thought the scheduler was not functional: Today it should be fine, as it cannot interpret 10-10-2024 as something else (I do have to delete the other test data for that).But this is inconvenient. It seems to interpret 09-10-2024 in the American way (month/day/year instead of day/month/year). What could be the cause of this, and has anyone else run into this problem?

Drag and drop on the same table cannot pass the id of an item (dragging from variant to table)

Hello everyone,We have a table called work order, this work order table has a variant for the unplanned work orders. These unplanned work orders need to be planned. For this we wanted a scheduler and drag and drop functionality.As a test I first made the task that plans an unplanned work order. The screen build up is as follows: on the right hand side I have a scheduler with the original table as it automatically filters on planned work orders. On the left hand side I have a table variant for the unplanned work orders.When I use a conventional task with two fields for start and end date, it nicely plans the work order I ask it to be planned. The work order disappears from the unplanned list, and appears on the scheduler. This works fine, but I want it to work with drag and drop (and the task is necessary).When I drag and drop an item on the scheduler, it opens the task (as dropping on specific dates is not possible). I fill in the task fields and hit execute. When I hit execute, it wil
