Hello,I was wondering what integration options Thinkwise offers on dedicated hadheld barcode scanners.I know mobile uses the camera of the mobile device, but that is not always the best and quickest way to scan multiple code fast after each other.Are integration solutions already in operation with other clients? If not, how do I get the information I need to start? Are there multiple solutions possible and which is the best?Do I use a USB or bluetooth handheld to connect with a PC on which a TSF client is installed. Does it have to communicate through a webservice? Is it better to work offline or online?Thanks, Joost van Lier
I would like to restrict my users to a single session. The user may only be able to login from a single computer. If the user try to login from an other computer the session must be blocked.Is this possible?
Are badges meant to be shown on table tasks? The badges work fine when the task shown as a menu item or tile, but not when used in a subject.Is this the expected behaviour or am I missing something?
Hi All,I have a question about using subreports in SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) in Thinkwise.Currently for testing I am using Microsoft Visual Studio (using Report Server Project) to make a simple main report with a subreport.What I did was I made 2 reports (see Figure 1). First the MainReport.rdl and second the SubReport.rdl Then in the MainReport insert subreport item then right-click on subreport item then Subreport properties then under "Use this report as a subreport:" I select the subreport file I made earlier named SubReport.In Software Factory in Reports I'm using for Report type "SSRS (Local)" then in File I select the MainReport.rdl. When I'm opening the report in application I get an error (see Figure 2) saying that subreport could not be found at specified location....What I did I moved the subreport to the specified location given in the error and renamed the file from .rdl to .rdlc and got the expected result information on the subreport.My questions:Is that the w
Is it possible to conditionally format the progress bar control, used with a domain, in a grid?E.g. 90% - 100% Green, 100% - 125% Red.
Is it possible to reuse existing icon, already stored in the database, for in a form or for group section?Like an info icon can be used very often on different places.Will be helpfull when working with more developers to avoid to have the icons stored multiple times.Now only upload option is there.
Hi all,Currently my IAM Db is quite large. The main culprit is the table “get gui cache”, which takes up far over 1gb. I do not know/understand why this is, and this is driving the costs for backups through the roof… So, just for conversation.. How big is yours? I created a ticket within TCP, and I can clear it manually, but that does not feel like a great solution. Other than that, they send me over here and discuss it. So, let’s! Any thoughts on this? Kind regards, Alex
We are developing with our SQL Server for Thinkwise on Azure.We have various users as sf_developers. Unfortunately it is currently only possible to deploy changes in our (data) model when logged in as tsf_admin. Other users are not allowed to make changes to the application database. What do I need to do so that other sf_devolepers can also deploy their changes to the application database?Related to this:Currently I also have to create users for each application database. So also for all sf_developers so that they can test their own changes. Can this be automated in some way?
We've enabled the platform 'Mobile' in the SF, because we're planning on using the Universal GUI as the client for mobile devices. This gives us some validations messages, on which I assume only apply on the 'old' Mobile GUI because the Universal GUI is lazy loaded.The following validations are shown:- Table is reachable in mobile- Task is reachable in mobile- Report is reachable in mobile, this is not yet supportedAs we're not going to use the 'old' Mobile GUI, I could approve them, but I assume it better to solve the root cause. But I can't find where it's defined that a table / task / report is 'reachable'. In the Validations I did find it's stored in the table reachable_tab, reachable_task and reachable_report, but how can I access those tables in the SF?We could use "Universal" instead of Mobile as platform, but I think it's better to keep that slot free for when moving from the Web GUI to Universal.
Hi,for the entire app we use a lot of fields with values with a comma. However, TW by defaults uses a point. Now this is not too bad for our friends in the us of a. But here in Europe, I would very much like to offer a comma in values. Is this possible? It is needed for money, size, weight, etc.
Does anybody know how to create a task which works on 2 independent lists. Let’s say I have a list with demands and I have a list with supply’s. These 2 lists are shown on 1 screen and horizontally devided. (I’ve created a reference with no reference columns) So the top list is the demand list and the below list is the supply list.I want to be able to select a demand line in the demand list and to select a specific supply line in the supply list as well.Then I want to start a task which can connect this specific demand line and this specific supply line. For example to create a new orderline based on this selected demand line and selected supply line.An example is the task “create list bar item” in the SF. In that case the system knows which subject I want to add to the listbar and the system knows as well which menu item (at the left side) is selected so the chosen subject will be placed in the correct submenu. Can we do this with two independent lists as well?
How do I edit a crystal report in the 2020.2.20.0 version?
Hi,I have a question about a message that is shown in the Universal GUI. Message: "No matching row was found. Would you like to change the search parameters?”.This occurs when i use a detail page with the preview component. The message is visible in the preview component. After pushing the refresh button from the actions pane, the preview is working again. But when i reload the page in the browser and go to the same detail page, the message is shown again.Any idea why this happens? Is it a bug?
Does anyone know how I can set the color of the tiles in the universal GUI? They are white right now. I checked the documentation and it speaks about the universal theme.https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/sf/themes.html#tab Where can I find this page in the SF? I checked all Theme pages and tabs but this screenshot is nowhere to find. I hope someone can help me out
Does anyone know why the report builder is looking to my local user path when executing a report? Below a piece of debug:/****************Translation: [tracking_sheet]Report path: C:\Users\edwin.saan\AppData\Local\Thinkwise Software\GUI\GUI\Cache\Images\ERP_1.01\Report\tracking_sheet_Tracking_sheet.rdlParameters: @fkcarrier = 1Action: PrintPreviewHost: VC-ERP01\ERP01Database: ERP*****************/In the report I upload the file from the application path: C:\Thinkwise\Applications\ERP\1.01\reports
When you press Ctrl + F (Find, not Filter) in the Web GUI, a dialog like below appears:Note here the checkbox for Case sensitive. What is the value? It seems to me it is case sensitive, or not. Not undecided. Once you've performed a search, the box is unchecked, which is assume it's default behavior.In comparison, the Windows GUI doesn't have the box checked by default: Is this a setting, intended or wrong?
I would like to monitor the usage of my application. Is there an option to log what actions the users do in the application. For example i would like to know what menu items and tiles are used the most. Also i am interested to find out what subjects and tasks are executed the most.With this information i can optimize my application to have a better user experience for my end users.
I want to filter records based on the user that is currently logged into the application.This should be possible as there are a lot of prefilters for My Projects and such, but can't seem to find out how to do this.So how do I know what the current user is? And how do I use this in prefilters and views?
I noticed in the release notes of Indicium Universal 2020.2.7 this:Implemented a setting to hide the /$metadata and /openapi endpointsIs it something to consider when using the Universal GUI, and if it's possible, how is this setting enabled I'd like to expose as less as possible.
We have installed the upgrade to 2020.2 at customer premisses, but now they are unable to retrieve the licence for the IAM on VDI's. Regular desktops are working properly. Even VM's are working properly.
Data security and privacy remain important aspects of everyday life and in the Thinkwise Platform. Therefore, as of release 2021.1, we created a new access type: 'unauthorized', which can be used for columns, tasks and reports. And on top of that: you don't need to set up the columns yourself, but the Software Factory does it for you! Hidden or unauthorized? Now before explaining how that's possible, let's first set out the difference between a hidden and an unauthorized column. A hidden column was already available in the Software Factory. It means that the column is hidden visually from the user interface. That's quite safe already, but in some cases the data might still be approached through Indicium. Unauthorized columns on the other hand can't be approached in any way. The user interface or any API won't even know the column exists, so that's an even safer way to protect your sensitive data.Until now, the best way to get the same effect was excluding columns from a basic table in
When developing you would be able to see the results of your changes right away in a development environment. So also for the universal GUI wich will be replacing the mobile GUI. With the OLD mobile GUI we could start the GUI against the SF, without IAM, so view the results of the changes made.It seems for the universal GUI IAM is required and so it is also required to synchronize each time you’ve made a change. And as well before synchronizing all validations should be solved!Is there another way to view the application in the universal (mobile layout) GUI without IAM and without synchronizing all the time
I have a task on a subject which cannot always be executing, depending on the input parameters. I want to inform the user as early as possible that the task cannot be executed, and cancel the task. What is the easiest way to achieve this?The only thing I can imagine is having two tasks defined and connected via a process flow. In the process code for the first (dummy) task the cancel-check is done without showing the task dialog (all parameters hidden). If the task cannot be executed, the user will see a tsf_send_message and the proces flow ends. If the task can be executed, it can continue to the next task in the process flow which shows the task with input parameters. The users then confirms with "Execute".But is there an easier way without using process flows? I was thinking of the default concept, but I don't know how to cancel the task (close the task window, or not even show it).

Document previewing has been an important feature in our Windows and Web GUIs over the last years. By popular demand, we have implemented an API for document previewing in Indicium as well. Because of this, our Universal GUI now supports document preview as well, but as with every feature that you see in our Universal GUI, you can also integrate it in your own applications very easily because it's an API offered by Indicium. What does this API offer?Document Preview allows users to preview files that are stored in your application. Indicium makes this work by converting the files, if required, to a data format that is supported by browsers. The following data formats are currently supported by Indicium: Word Excel PowerPoint E-mail PDF Images WebpagesIndicium will convert Excel files, e-mail, images and webpages into HTML format and everything else into PDF format. How to use?To use Document Preview, the only thing needed is a table in which the files are stored. If a file column is
