Support printing separate table pages when printing full-page reports to PDF

Customers using CT/BoIT to email full-page PDFs to users (such as Billing invoices) need the full-page PDF export to include the separate pages of tables in the export. TBM Studio does not support printing full pages to PDF where individual compo...
over 2 years ago in Apptio / TBM Studio - Report Studio 1 Not under consideration

In the application traces(Analytics->calls in the UI) the query execution time from a DB2 is not getting represented correctly, for example when a query is waiting for a lock this time is not getting reported under query time instead it is getting reported under JVM time.

it was observed that the entire time(execution+lock) was distributed between the query execution and result fetch, so we need an implementation where we can see the query time and a child span for resultset showing the time taken in locking if any...

Reports to be Accessed for Closed Time Periods

End-users who do not have admin access should be able to access the reports even for closed time-periods otherwise the reports might not be helpful to them and each time an admin would have to intervene to keep changing the time-periods.

Ensure stacked bar charts can be limited to show set # of elements on the axis, but no limit on the stacking

Right now we either have the option to show an inaccurate chart limited by the "# of rows" feature, or show ALL rows which makes too much data visually available in the chart. These are not good options and we should be able to just show a stacked...

Filtering Snowflake smart alerts by database username or account

We are trying to create smart alerts to get alerts when queries are taking longer than a specific threshold. While creating the alert we are trying to filter by only specific snowflake usernames/account.
10 months ago in Instana / DB2 2 Functionality already exists

Would like to give user(s) access to their own project in TBM Studio without also giving them access to the main Cost Transparency project.

Users in other areas of the business will be able to utilize Apptio without gaining access to confidential data or compromising the integrity of another user's project or the main CT project. It will help drive exposure and expansion of the applic...

Horizontal scroll for tabs in a tab group

The tabbed group component on a report should have a scroll option in cases where there are more tabs than the width of the tabbed group will allow to be seen. This might potentially have more of an impact in Studio when a report is checked out, a...

Disable irrelevant data in filters based on pre-applied filter

Is there a way for the filters in Apptio to be dependent on the other filters selection? Example, if we select Country = USA, the only states relevant to USA should be shown in States filter. States from other countries should not be visible or cl...
