  2. Enhancement of Management Console Features for Tracking Item Counts in Folders

    While the Box management console allows us to check the data usage capacity, we would like to request the implementation of a feature that enables us to view the number of items in each folder. Although Box can be utilized with unlimited data capacity, we have been advised by Box that behavior may become unstable if the item count in any root folder exceeds 10 million items.

    Given this situation, it would be greatly beneficial to enrich the administrative functionalities on the management console. We would like to see features such as displaying the “current item count” for each root…

  3. Group-based SSO configuration

    Current Status and Issues:
    SSO mode can only be set for all users.
    If SSO is mandatory, when IdP fails, all users cannot log in to Box.

    Desired Improvement:
    I would like to specify a Box group to enable/disable/require SSO. If only the administrator can set "SSO Enabled", he/she can log in even in case of IdP failure, and by changing the setting of general users from "SSO Required" to "SSO Enabled", the business can continue.
    Furthermore, if possible, we would like to set it up so that different groups can SSO in different IdPs.

    Reason for need:
    The IdP…

  6. Preserve names when staff leaves

    Add a feature to preserve the names of departed users in the Box Activity comments and tasks and approvals instead of changing their names to "Anonymous User" or "A Prior Collaborator" to preserve records of who was involved in the approval process even if they no longer have active accounts. Additionally, approvals set up by departed users should remain visible and not disappear from the Activity box. This is important for any company using Box as a review or internal control tool.

  7. Allow users to set Sort Preferences

    Users should be able to save default sort preferences.
    Currently I see "Least Recently Updated" documents first, which is never helpful.
    I have to manually re-set the sort preference in every folder I work in.

  8. Box Sign owner alert for unsigned documents

    While currently Box Sign can send an automated reminder to recipients to complete a document, there is no way to alert the author of the document that a particular document is languishing. It would be nice to be able to set an automatic alert to email the owner of a document after X days if it has not yet been signed, so that they can take whatever measures are needed.

  9. Print Into Box

    I want to be able to print documents into Box by having Box appear as a printer like adobe so that if I am working in an application that generates a document, I can print it into box rather than having to save it and then upload it.

  10. Be able to update the links existing on the login page "Not part of xxxxxx? Log in or Sign In Here"

    Customer prefer to be able to update those links vs utilizing the Login Page section of custom set up as users are immediately drawn to that above link in the image when they cant get into Box and most of the time will not know to come back and look at the extra verbiage.

  11. Ability for users to track activity

    In the Closed configuration ,Only admins and co-admins can track activity on the files listed at the URLs below.
    Users cannot be tracked.
    If users can export reports, they can perform on themselves statistical analysis.
    As a result, it becomes possible to actively use Box.
    So I want users to be included in the targets that can be exported.

  12. Box Task Inbox Filter to see only Tasks pending my action

    I use my Task Inbox all the time, and often receive Tasks with multiple assignees. It is frustrating when I can't filter out the tasks I have completed but that are still in progress pending action by someone else. Could you add a filter that would allow me to see only the Tasks pending action by me, that is separate from all tasks still in progress by any assignee?

  13. Allow individual file sharing to groups

    Currently, you can share folders with groups, but not individual files. I have a custom tutorial I'd like to share with a user group wihtout nesting it in a folder, like the "Get Started with Box" PDF file does, but there is no option for it. Optimally, I'd prefer to see an option in which we could replace the "Get Started with Box" PDF file with our own PDF tutorial that addresses our specific needs.

  14. Expansion of File Version Limit settings

    For customers currently using Governance, the "File Version Limit" setting can be set to 1-100 or unlimited.
    We would like this setting to be improved so that it can be specified as 500, 1000, 1500, 2000, etc. The reason is that problems may occur when there are multiple file versions when migrating between tenants or within a tenant, so I would like to limit this in the settings.

  15. Allow preview/editing of Office files other than PW-protected Excel (.xlsx) files.

    We feel that the inability to preview/edit PW protected files makes it less convenient.
    In order to ensure security, we often assign passwords to not only Excel files, but also to PowerPoint and Word files, and there are many opportunities to collaborate on editing PowerPoint and Word files. This is because not supporting online access reduces work efficiency.

    PW保護しているファイルがプレビュー/編集できないことで利便性が低いと感じております。
    当社ではセキュリティを確保する目的で、Excel に限らず PowerPoint や Word についてもファイル自体にパスワードを付与していることが多いという点と、Power Point、Word ファイルを共同編集する機会も多く、Online で対応していないことにより作業効率が下がってしまうためです。

  16. Metadata template creation - option to duplicate metadata template, then edit

    A lot of the metadata templates will have similar fields, so ideally you could duplicate an existing metadata template, then make edits from there rather than just having the option to start new each time.

  18. Box Tools:Stopping automatic version updates

    I request that an automatic version update stop function be added.
    When installing Box Tools on the template distribution PC, I would like to stop automatic version updates for a certain period of time in accordance with the distribution timing of the template distribution PC.

    We also request that similar functionality be added to Box Drive in the following titles.
    "Box Drive:Stopping automatic version updates"

    自動バージョンアップ停止機能の追加を要望します。
    雛形配信のPCにBox Toolsをインストールするにあたり、雛形配信PCの配信タイミングに合わせて一定期間自動バージョンアップを停止したいと考えています。

    なお、Box Driveについても以下のタイトルにて同様の機能追加を要望します。

  19. Admin select Box default document lock time

    We need the option as Admins to change the default lock time (e.g. one hour). Box support said "Unlimited" is the only default option. This creates a problem because users, by the Box design, select lock without changing the default resulting in many, many "unlock" requests.

  20. Combine Executed Signed Docs and Signature Log

    Currently, when you send a document to be signed, the signed executed document and signature log are saved as separate files. It would be nice if the signed doc and signature log were one document and saved as an updated version of the original document. Currently, it turns 1 document into 3 documents, and clutters up the folders.
