When creating a column add (aka join) between tables, it would be amazing to be able to more specifically define the join type rather than only having an '='. If for example you could select the type from =, >, <, >=, <=, etc. then you...

This is useful when we expose certain reports to users but don't want them to have access to specific info/links. For example when Spotfire is embedded within custom portal.

Future Consideration

give the infoLink builder in information designer the look and feel of the data canvas
The infoLink builder interface is now highly technical in look and feel while there is a very nice interface with virtually the same functionality available in the data canvas. This would greatly help the self service use of the tooling. Please co...
Add transformations to external data tables (and database pushback of these)
