This release includes the following new features and updates:

• Dashboard features

• Additional updates and enhancements

Dashboard features

The following features have been added and updated for add-on dashboards:

• Administrators can now create a dashboard from dataset or dataspace Actions menu. Additionally, dashboard configuration settings can be edited directly when viewing a dashboard.

• Administrators can edit indicator configurations using a new option on dashboard tiles without having to navigate to the EBX® Administration area.

• Previously, dashboards were required to have content. To support above features, dashboard sections can now be left blank.

• When refreshing the dashboard view, the dashboard no longer redirects you to the All tab. Instead, it remains on the current tab.

• The dashboard refresh icon has been updated so as to differentiate its functionality from refreshing the display vs re-executing indicators.

Release Notes 2.6.0

Release Date: June 20, 2019

Updates and enhancements

This release contains the following updates and enhancements:

• The T-I07 indicator's computation frequency can now be set to On demand, which means the indicator can be executed at any time.

• The T-I11 indicator's output parameter display has been updated.

• The following new indicators have been added: Least frequent field values, Most frequent field values, Field value range, Median field value, and Average field value.

• When viewing a dashboard, administrators can now remove indicators from sections and sections from dashboards. These tasks no longer require navigation to the Administration area.

• An administrator can now attach indicators to a dashboard directly from the dashboard screen when creating a new tile. This alleviates the requirement of having to attach the indicator to the D.E.C. in the Administration tab.

• The process of importing TIBCO EBX® Data Exchange Add-on preferences has been updated.

• Previous results can now be hidden when using the Digital display mode.

Release Notes 2.5.0

Release Date: March 25, 2019

Updates and enhancements

This release contains the following updates and enhancements:

• The dashboard context feature has been removed. This simplifies configuration and indicator access when launching dashboards from the TIBCO EBX® toolbar. Now, the default dashboard automatically displays along with all attached indicators. The Dashboard drop-down menu can now be used to access available dashboards.

• For line and bar chart improvements, see the section below.

• The W-I04 indicator has been updated to ensure that its output display is more usable.

• Custom charts have been updated to have the same look and feel as those generated using the add-on.

• If the grouping or filter predicate features are active, the T-I03 indicator can now use the linked records feature.

• The following data profiling indicators have been added:

  • F-I34: Number of not null values for a field

  • F-I35: Number of distinct values for a field

  • F-I36: Number of unique values for a field

  • F-I37: Number of not unique values for a field

  • F-I38: Field maximum length

  • F-I39: Field minimum length

  • F-I40: Field average length

  • F-I44: Highest field value

  • F-I45: Lowest field value

Line and bar chart improvements

This release contains the following updates for line and bar charts:

• The number of annotations that display on line and bar chart tiles is now limited to the most relevant results. For example, the display no longer shows results from the current date when an indicator has not been executed recently. This can make it easier to read certain charts by reducing the number of results shown. Now, if an indicator hasn't been executed in 6 months, its tile only displays the most recent and prior executions.

• The X-axis annotation formatting for bar charts has been improved and aligns with the existing behavior of line charts. For example, when the display periodicity is set to Daily, the annotations include the date of execution.

• An improved scroll feature for line and bar charts has been implemented. When viewing a full size chart that includes more values than the chart can display, you can hover your mouse over the displayed arrows to the right and left of the chart, or select and drag the chart. The displayed time interval can also be changed by zooming in and out. Zooming in shows smaller, more focused intervals and vice versa when zooming out. The maximum zoom level for bar charts is daily and line charts can zoom in to the day and hour.

  

Known limitations

This release contains the following known limitations:

• The date format used in the calendar and on chart axis annotations behaves as follows:

  • English: MM/dd/yyyy

  • French: dd/MM/yyyy

Release Note 2.2.0

Release Date: January 31, 2018

New features

This release of the EBX Insight Add-on focuses on improvements to performance and usability for the dashboard and indicators. The following sections highlight these updates:

• Dashboard layout

• Indicator tiles

• Additional improvements

Dashboard layout

The following list describes the highlighted areas of the image below:

1. The title displays the current context, dashboard configuration, and storage location. In addition to using the dropdown lists to change these options, you can refresh, and export a PDF of the current dashboard.

2. Tabs provide navigation to dashboard sections, which are all visible from the All tab. Two tabs of note are the Favorites tab and the tab with the + icon. The Favorites tab displays all starred tiles for the current dashboard. The + tab displays for users with administrative privileges and allows you to quickly add a new section to the dashboard.

3. The image shows examples of large and small indicator tiles. Generally speaking, large tiles work better for line and bar charts with multiple outputs, whereas small tiles work well to display numeric output and pie and sparkline charts.

4. This tile displays if you have administrative privileges; click here to add an additional tile to the dashboard section.

Indicator tiles

Tiles offer digital and chart type display modes. The image below is an example of digital display mode. Callouts identify main features which are described in the list below:

1. The tile's title corresponds to the indicator's name, or business label if one exists.

2. If enabled, you can open a tabular view displaying previous indicator execution.

3. Toggling the favorites icon determines whether this tile displays in the dashboard's Favorites section.

4. Indicator output displays in the center of the tile. The default output format (digital, or chart type) can be set be administrators.

5. The refresh icon enables on-demand execution of the indicator.

6. The information displayed here shows this indicator's time of last execution (above) and the related D.E.C.'s label (below).

7. If enabled, you can view the indicator's linked records.

8. You can click this icon to toggle the display mode—if additional modes are available.

You can now customize descriptive information about indicators in the Indicator on D.E.C. table by adding a business label and description. When users mouse over the label, they can click the Show detail icon to view the description.

Digital display tiles

Tiles that display measurement over time have an icon that shows the trend between the current and previous execution (shown left). Additionally, for time based indicators, you can configure interval format display. If needed, the add-on can automatically adjust the output format so that only relevant information is shown. Indicator tiles that display feedback from numerical measurement display the current value vs the previous computation (shown right).

Chart tile improvements

You can double-click a chart to expand it. The following sections highlight the new sparkline chart type and the updated functionality for expanded charts.

Line and bar charts

The following highlights new features when interacting with line charts; bar charts (not shown) share these features:

• You can select an entry in the legend to toggle display of the corresponding line/bar. If you hover your mouse over an entry in the legend, the add-on highlights the associated line/bar. You can also hover over points/bars on the chart to display details.

  

• The display location for labels (along the Y axis) has been optimized. As highlighted in the above image, one of the new features conveniently allows you to filter display of lines/bars. Since the output displayed on the graph may no longer match the labels, the add-on automatically updates the displayed label to the optimal location.

• If enabled, users can click the axis label to edit it while viewing the indicator:

  

• Clicking Scroll mode when viewing a line chart displays a table containing the chart's values and as you move your cursor along the X axis, the corresponding value is highlighted in the table.

  

Pie charts

As shown below, pie charts enable functionality similar to line and bar charts, with subtle differences.

Displaying linked records from charts

If an admin has enabled the Linked record service for your profile, you can use the Display a subset of linked records to open a tabular view of records linked to chart values. Depending on the chart type, you can access this service when:

• Pie charts: selecting a section to highlight it. Then, right-click the section and select the service.

• Bar charts: right-clicking on a bar and selecting the service.

• Line charts: right-clicking a value point and selecting the service.

• Sparkline charts: hovering your cursor on the chart until the value displays. Then, right-click and select the service.

New chart type

Sparkline charts are now available for selection to display indicators with numeric outputs and display a visual representation of data trends. As with other charts, you can double-click tiles from the dashboard to open an expanded view. When expanded, the chart legend displays and, similar to line and bar charts, you can filter displayed values, highlight data points, and view linked records.

Additional improvements

In addition to the above mentioned improvements:

• The add-on provides an auto-incremented value for Code field when you create a new dashboard, or section.

• To lift restrictions on which indicators can be added to sections, the Section type field has been removed.

Bug fixes

[26074] The interval axis of a chart does not follow interval format set in the Indicator on D.E.C. table.

Release Note 2.1.2

• [26343] [Pie chart][W-I05, T-I15, F-I05, F-I08] Alignment issue occurs when you view pie chart.

• [26398] [Line chart] [F-I04] There is a shortage of 'Number of deletions' output on the filter option of line chart.

• [26475] There is an inconsistent date format between the tabular and analytics views.

Release Note 2.0.0

Release Date: December 16, 2016

Indicator improvements

• The 'Big data report' table has been replaced with a new flat table. It contains dynamic field labels and descriptions, which can adapt to any indicator without having to add extra fields for new outputs.

  From now on, all built-in indicators will only support this new reporting table.

  To transfer existing reporting data to the flat data table, you should run the 'Migrate to the "Flat data report" table' service on the 'Indicator definition' table in the TIBCO EBX® Insight Add-on. This should be done after upgrading to this version. The 'Big data report' table will not be supported in the future.

  Please see the 'New features in the API' section for more information regarding how to declare the new reporting table in an indicator implementation.

• It is now possible to define a table predicate for an indicator in the 'Indicator on D.E.C.' table to filter records before calculating the results.

  Please refer to the 'Indicators portfolio' documentation for more information.

Data Element Concept improvements

• Hierarchy views by data models are now supported for the 'D.E.C. (Data Element Concept)' table and the 'Indicator on D.E.C.' table.

  Those hierarchy views must be updated manually by executing the 'Update the hierarchy view by data models' service on the 'D.E.C. (Data Element Concept)' table to align with the structures of configured data models.

Chart improvements

• Bar charts for indicators are now supported to display the average results grouped by period.

• All line charts now support line filter.

Dashboard improvements

• It is now possible to configure the available display modes for a dashboard tile.

• The 'Open charts' action now supports the 'Only last measure' pie chart mode.

• The indicator label for a dashboard tile can now be overwritten in the 'Indicators in section' table.

New features in the API

• A new method to get the definition of the Flat data table in the same manner as BigDataDefinition has been added to the IndicatorDefinition interface.

  The FlatDataDefinition and BigDataDefinition of an indicator must be declared to migrate the existing reporting records from the 'Big data report' table to the 'Flat data report' table.

  If both FlatDataDefinition and BigDataDefinition are declared, the results of the indicator will be saved in the 'Flat data report' table.

• In order to support the reporting tables in general, new classes and methods in the API have been provided to replace those that only supported the 'Big data report' table.

  You can find additional information regarding these changes in the EBX Insight Add-on API's sample code.

• A new method has been added to the IndicatorDefinitionContext interface to get the table filter predicate configured for an indicator.

Bug fixes

• [21866] [Dashboard] No pie chart is displayed when all numeric results of an indicator are zeros.

• [21941] There are duplicated preferences when exporting reporting data to Excel.

• [21973] [D.E.C. purge] It is impossible to purge when the query permission is not set for all datasets in the Indicator permission.

For instance, if the 'Number of records' indicator is queried on three tables, the synthesis view displays the average of the three results. The synthesis displays - in a condensed view - the digital results (number) the boolean, the percentage (graphical bars) and the dates.

Dashboard

• The dashboard tile now holds an info-tip displaying the indicator's full label and its business description.

• Dashboards integrated inside the 'TIBCO EBX® Information Governance Add-on' (IGov) add-on: In some models, EBX Insight Add-on might be configured to show indicators for tables and fields. In IGov, these indicators will be shown if the administered items for target tables and fields are configured in EBX Insight Add-on. A new tab named 'Quality' in IGov's UI shows indicator dashboards configured for administered items.

Configuration

• You can now overwrite the following properties when configuring the 'Indicator on D.E.C.' table: 'Input parameters', 'Saving options' and 'Linked record' options.

• The 'Indicator view' table now filters by the selection of dataset storage.

• You can now configure many email recipients and use the CC, BCC declaration.

Services

• A new 'Attach indicators to D.E.C.s' service (D.E.C. table) allows you to easily create the 'Indicators on D.E.C.' configuration.

• The 'D.E.C. creation' service (D.E.C. table) allows you to easily create the different type of D.E.C.s (Table, Field, dataspace, etc.). This service replaces the 'D.E.C. table creation' and 'D.E.C. field creation' services.

Linked records

• You can now configure an indicator to save 'linked records' in the results table. For instance, the 'Number of missing values for a field' indicator saves the list of records for which the field is missing. This list of 'Linked records' is displayed through the UI query and dashboards (new service in the title dashboard).

• The list of indicators supporting 'Linked records' is as follows (see the 'Indicators portfolio' document for more information):

  • Table updated [ON] T-I02.

  • Table completeness rate [ON] T-I04.
