Be able to differentiate better between the schema name of the entity and the field
Suggested by Chris Arcand – New – 0 Comments
So while this isn't exclusively a North52 error, when you have a field with the same schema name as the entity it causes confusion with the serialization. It would be nice to be able to use the same in both. -
Update AzureServiceBusSendMessage formula to optionally specify a MessageId
Suggested by Patrick Griffith – New – 0 Comments
It would be useful to be able to optionally specify a MessageId when creating a new Azure Service Bus message using the AzureServiceBusSendMessage formula. This would help with duplicate detection using queues.

Refresh List View after pressing Quick Ribbon Button on a List View
Suggested by Ronald Hoebler – New – 0 Comments
It would be nice to have an opportunity to refresh the list view when integrating a Quick Ribbon Button on a list view. Currently we resolved that issue with an own Web Resource calling the N52 Quick Ribbon Web Resource with all the parameters and then refreshing the list view after callback. -
New Window for Newly Created Records
Suggested by Elaine Chang – New – 0 Comments
It would be helpful if we had the functionality to open a new window when creating new records (similar to the openwindow function) instead of opening in the current window. -
Quick Button - Dynamic Labels
Suggested by Ryan Maclean – New – 1 Comments
It would be useful if the Quick Buttons allowed for the use of dynamic label text.
For example, I have a quick button that is used to request action is taken by another user. When it is clicked then it would be useful if the button text could be changed from "Request Action" to "Action Requested"
I know we can disable the button, but from a user experience point of view this doesn't necessarily always make sense. -
Modal Dialogs/Prompts
Suggested by Ryan Maclean – New – 2 Comments
Would it be possible to add JS based dialog/prompts (similar to those used in the Alert.js library (https://github.com/PaulNieuwelaar/alertjs/wiki/Documentation-v3.0#showprompt) that could be triggered by client-side formulas
This would be useful in situations where you want to display an actionable alert to Users and tie custom actions to the responses -
Enable text based fuzzy matching
Suggested by Ryan Maclean – New – 1 Comments
It would be great if it was possible to expand on the fuzzy matching capabilities already in the system with the Levenshtein Distance function by introducing additional options, such as:- Jaccard Index of SImilarity (used by the Excel Fuzzy Lookup add-in - https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=15011)
- Soundex or Metaphone algorithm

Allow formulas to trigger on the creation of a Plugin Trace Log
Suggested by Patrick Griffith – New – 0 Comments
I think it would be very helpful to be able to trigger North52 formulas on the creation of a new plugin trace log. Unfortunately Dynamics does not allow workflows to be triggered on this entity.
I know there's N52 Trace but I would use this more for exceptions being caused by Workflows, plugins and N52 formulas. Not just trace logs from N52 formulas.

Allow the ability to show/hide Business Process Flows
Suggested by Pietro Curini – New – 1 Comments
Implement a formula to show and hide BPFs so that they can be hidden for certain users, based on certain data in records or based on the form that is loading. -
Disable fields on Business Process Flow
Suggested by Ryan Maclean – New – 1 Comments
It would be great if Disabling a field on the form also disabled the field on the Business Process Flow, similar to how it works with Business Rules
