We have some tables with start and end dates per row. When we do an export we see that all dates are no longer in the format that we used in the app. In Universal we use dd-MM-yyyy and the downloaded file uses MM-dd-yyyy. Is there a way to make the downloaded file respect the preferred date settings?
How do I give someone rights to the analyze the system flows, but I do not want them to be full admin. I somehow expected an application owner to be able to see their flows. But it seems that they are only allowed to see the Authorization menu items.
The Thinkwise Platform version 2021.3 has revised the way the Creation screen works, opening up more elegant ways to leverage tooling to automate this process.The generation screen consists of a number of steps:Generate definition Validate definition Generate source code Execute source code Run unit testsThis has remained unchanged between versions 2021.2 and 2021.3. However, the way these steps are performed has fundamentally changed.In the previous version, the steps in the generation screen were bound to a specific client. A developer would start Generate definition and the definition generation would be orchestrated start-to-end by the users client. This has served us well for many years, but there are some drawbacks that we’ve addressed in this release. The new Creation approachAll ‘jobs’ are no longer performed by a client, but are instead performed by Indicium. This means that generation, validation and such will continue even if the developer closes the screen or even the Softw
I have a long running task and want to inform the user about the progress using a process bar like I used to to in the Windows GUI, in the Stored Procedure the tsf_send_progress SP is used for this:exec tsf_send_progress 'parameter_is_message', '<text>Tekstuele terugmelding uit taak</text>', 25;In the Windows GUI I see what I expected:In the Universal GUI I get a spinning circle, but I don't see the message and the progress%:When the task is finished I get popups for every message sent from the task:Isn't it possible to use progress bars for tasks like in the Windows GUI?
Hi,I’ve created a dynamic model with a prefilter ‘Show_active’. Works fine. When in edit mode, and clicking a popup, I see the results - in grid and form. The prefilter is active on the popup. When I Save my record (Employee), and reclick the lookup, it’s empty. This is because the prefilter is not active. When I toggle it manually, all is ok. Empty popup - prefilter inactive.I do not see a setting for prefilters in the popup. Main state: onAny thoughts how I can change this? Alexander
When in code review i want to compare code. Normally an external tool would open. My collegues work in Winmerge but the it policy changed and we now have to work in Kdiff3. Iver installed this tool on my computer but when i press the button in TSF it does not open but provides a message:Het systeem kan het opgegeven bestand niet vindenany idea how to fix this?
What can we do to make forms in Universal look a little more perfect? Fields should be arranged and sized like the Windows GUI does.
I have a Dev Express report that I directly want to print to a Brother label printer (62x100mm label).In Windows this works perfectly with the Report action ‘Print’. In the Universal GUI this report opens a new tab in the browser with the report as a preview instead of printing.So to create a sort of a workaround I created a process flow with the following actions:Generate report (report with Report action Save to PDF) → Write file → Print file. Process flowThis works if the printer is a normal A4 printer, but on the Brother label printer the printer stops with an error. If I open the PDF that has been created during the flow and I manually print it, it does work. The page settings and margins etc etc in the report are OK.Maybe Indicium does unexpected things during the Print file-action that the printer cannot handle, but that is very hard to debug.Does anyone have a better solution to print a report in the Universal GUI?
Is it safe to just delete the old versions in IAM?
We are moving our infrastructure completely to Linux, and one of things that is a bit troublesome (especially with container-based virtualization) is that the SQL server base images don't include the FTS packages. So I'm a bit wondering what areas of the SF don't work anymore when FTS is not available?
We have a system flow that runs every minute. Most of the time it does not do anything. However sometimes it does quite a lot. This process takes up to more than a few minutes. This is aboslutely no problem. Except that this makes the indicium log file flood itself with ‘procsess still running’ exceptions. How can we get indicium not to report this? 2023-03-22T11:38:00.3653547+01:00 [ERR] Error scheduling system flow '"flow_export_message"' for application 35.

Hi,We are in the progress of updating Thinkwise from 2021 to 2023.I'm testing the mobile devices to check if they still work after upgrading prior to releasing 2023 to the shop floor.When I use the Mobile GUI_2023.1.001Viewer everything works without any issues.But when we install the new Thinkwise Indicium app from the play store and use the same settings and same user/password combination we get “An error occured during the login": At first I thought there might be a typo in the meta server url but when I created a typo on purpose I got a perpetual “Loading application”:I ran a trace on the SQL server and was able to see events being triggered when we tried to logon on the mobile device.But there was nothing being recorded in the IIS log files, I can find entries for the viewer but not for the real mobile device.I did discover that when I install the Thinkwise Indicium app on my android device (NOT connected to the network) and setup the correct meta server url I get the exact same
Any indications what's the issue here? With getting the logo_data for a tree view I get a bad gateway (502) error.. followed by a similar request that gives a 200 OK.

Can anyone explain why this is and how to solve this?I upgraded the PRODUCTION server to TW 2023 and when I start the IAM I get: Pretty clear message so I click on the “Omgeving registreren” option and get: Ok… No action required.. Maybe I just need to restart the IAM!?Hmmmm nope…. This one again:
Update: the documentation is now available at https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/deployment/container_deployment_overviewYou might have noticed, there is a new menu item in TCP called Thinkwise Containers. Through this menu item it is possible to request login tokens required for downloading Thinkwise container images from the Thinkwise Container Registry. These container images can be used to deploy the Universal GUI and the Indicium Application Tier of the Thinkwise Platform in a new and easy way.But what exactly are containers and container images, how do you use them, and what are the benefits of using container images? What Are Container ImagesA container image is an application together with all the required dependencies wrapped together into a single image, which basically is a compressed archive. The application that runs from a container image is called a container.Compared to a virtual machine, a container only contains the required dependencies to run the application or
I have set up a scheduler and the timescale must be default in weeks, so I set up a schedeluar view with weeks and assigned it as default view in schedular but it seems like it do not work. In the application it always presented in days.
Whenever we want to synchronize to IAM it keeps getting stuck at 52% on the reports. We`ve tried to recycle on the IIS en it still keeps happening. How do we solve this problem?
I have migrated several projects to our new server, and one gives me errors on all application queries (500). Model queries work fine.. So I see the GUI, but never content. And the Indicium error log gives me always the error below.. There is no other logging. 2023-03-20T12:12:59.6648608+00:00 0HMP82PVQTH55:00000002 [ERR] An unhandled exception occurred while processing the request.

Hi, I have a 'Owner’ account in IAM. I use this to setup my Db's, storage accounts, reset Caches and all the other fun stuff in IAM. I also created a SuperUser in IAM. This SuperUser is an employee working at the client. This account has been given the rights for User Admin and Group Administrator. However, I was toying around with this and I think this Superuser has the ability of removing my 'Owner’ account, or resetting my password. Effectively kicking me out.Is this correct? And, how can I prevent this? I want my client to control own employees, but my accounts out of reach. Thanks! Alexander
How does the GUI exactly determines if Indicium is running? The fact is that indicium is running, but from the SF it says it's not. My setup is that SQL server and Indicium are running in a virtualized container on non standard ports. If I look at the IAM. the agent check-ins do function.. I see up-to-date log entries.
Let’s say I plan work for a mechanic (by dragging and dropping), then deleting that mechanic from the planned mechanics. See screenshot below. This seems to work fine.But when planning the exact same work for the exact same mechanic (again by dragging and dropping like before), the GUI seems to also somehow keep the old selection, which results in multiple executions:Of course this is not what I want to happen. I don’t want to add it multiple times, only once. But I am unable to find a fix for this. Does anyone know how to resolve this? Would appreciate the help!The following process flow is used to refresh the planning after a delete:
Hi there,a client has come back to us with a finding that we don't know how to deal with.The ticket states that you can have the Universal GUI open in a tab al day long. If you get back to the GUI it could be that your session has timed out in the background. This only becomes apparant when you try to save the data you have just entered. Our application default back to a form in edit mode so people can keep on working as fast as possible.What is the normal behaviour of the Universal GUI in this situation? Shouldn't it detect that it's session has expired and direct users to the login screen before users are able to interact with the GUI?If now this might be a nice feature to have. Could be implemented by doing a callback to indicium when the focus on the browser tab changes (https://reactnavigation.org/docs/function-after-focusing-screen/).
Hi, I have an app with some tiles. The user constantly switches between 'imporr' and 'export'. Ideally I want the user to login. Click tile 'export' - open the table (screen) in a new browser tab. Click tile 'import' - another browser tab opens. When reclicking on a tab, jump to the tab since it's already opened. The new 2023 has some options for opening in a new tab. But that support a URL. Is this also possible or am doing something wrong? Thanks! Alexander
I have the strangest thing. We were accessing our application via an iPad. The ones that go via IAM work. the Universal that directs via SF gives an 403 error even the URL states https:// .. on my desktop it works, on the iPhone it works.. on the iPad it doesn't .. why?
