Expanding the functionality of the knowledge database

The Jedox Knowledgebase is a helpful treasure chest of knowledge in my daily work.


However, I do see room for optimization:


1. due to the size of the knowledgebase, searching for a topic always results in a large number of hits.

This could be counteracted if help buttons were inserted in the GUI (e.g. in the combo box window, the DatePicker window, etc.) that lead to the appropriate help article.


The same could also be implemented in the Integrator (cube extraction, FieldList transformation, etc.).


2. some of the texts in the knowledgebase are already enriched with examples.

It would be very helpful if this could be expanded.


For example, the following article and in particular the explanations of the settings are not very informative:

https://knowledgebase.jedox.com/integration/sap/sap-genericrfc-extract.htm

- Connection > Name of the SAP connection.

- Function module > Name of the RFC function module.

- Import parameters > The parameter name and its value.


A screenshot of a functioning RFC extract would be helpful here.

In other places, code examples would be helpful.


3. the "Integrator Samples" can be installed in the Integrator.

The samples contain various examples on the individual topics.

However, as it is not possible to search in these samples, it would be helpful to include the existing information in the knowlegebase.
But then with the appropriate link between Integrator module and knowledgebase as described under point 1.


Thanks in advance.
Looking forward to your reply.

    Thank you for your great idea. While we cannot commit to a specific target version, we will consider adding it to our future internal backlog.
