Administration UI

Showing 22

V8.1 TFUI – Admin export for new TFUI Views must have option to export WITHOUT schema content to allow deployment without impacting enumvals/field dependencies etc.

Development of TFUI views will happen over a number of months with incremental deployment. The underlying field definitions, field values (enumvals) and dependent picklists are all exported too making it difficult to migrate just the views onto a ...

Migration Failures: When migrating a datastore with a structural change between destination and source environments the migration tool does not throw an error, rather the migration fails with a generic message. The migration tool should throw a conflict or invalid message as it does with tables.

Create ability to add "delete" and "Disassociate" buttons on embedded Gridviews

Currently in the new OpenPages UI you can create Add Object buttons and Associate Object buttons on the embedded Grid views. For example, you are in a Test Plan and want to add a Test Result object. You can add a button right on the grid view to a...

TFUI - Make validation and operation definitions re-usable across stages within workflow and across workflows

Many validation and operations would occur during many/all stage transitions. Currently the whole definition has to be re-entered for every stage required which is error-prone and time-consuming. Ideally it should be possible to define the val...

TFUI - Enable Workflow Validations and Operations on SAVE

Many of the data quality rules span objects - Eg. Impact booking date must be GT Event Occurrence Date. Form rules only allow for rules on a single object so cannot be used. Workflow rules for validations and operations only run on workflow transi...

Admin Export should either export the selected dependent picklists and field dependencies or remove the optiion to make the specific selections

The current Admin export feature allows you to select specific field dependencies and specific dependent picklists - however the XML exported contains ALL rather than the selected ones. Ideally the export XML should only contain the selected i...

System Administrator option to prevent user login, disconnect existing users and display notification message.

When an administrator needs to perform some system maintenance operations we may need to keep users out of the system - but the system has to remain up. Eg. Large hierarchy change with data moves and security access changes. Or an upgrade where we...

[TFUI] Configure default sorting in Grid Views

Currently in a Grid View, the object instances are sorted by default by the Name field in an ascending order. In an embedded Grid, the default sorting can be configured to meet ones needs. This is not possible in a Grid View. Users have to apply t...

Workflow Instances - add folder path filter

In addition to the existing filters on 'Workflow Instances', it would be very useful to be able to filter by folder path. Ideally this would form part of a cut-down Business Admin access, but if not, it's still useful if the system administrator h...

New UI - Criticality to allow for 'Not Defined' or 'Not Applicable'

On some objects it is meaningless to define criticality, or at least meaningless when only having fields on that object available for the rule e.g. Action object may not have a RAG, because the RAG is defined on the parent issue e.g. Test Pla...
