Features Requested and Issues Reported

This page consolidates all of the input collected from Idea Place, beta feedback, Using SAP.com discussions, and other channels that members have used to request features and report issues. Information includes descriptions of the submissions and current status for every item.

- Features Requested
- Issues Reported

This section includes information about features requested from SAP Community members, broken down by category. Each category contains corresponding details about the request -- including an explanation of the feature, when it was submitted, and its current status (e.g., delivered, accepted, not planned). (Note that some categories did not receive any requests yet. These categories are empty.)

The majoriy of these requests came via Customer Influence site, (formerly Idea Place). These requests also contain URLs for the submissions in Idea Place. Other requests came via other channels, such as through comments submitted during open beta. Wherever possible, we have linked back to any relevant content (such as community discussions where a request was made).

Please note that this page is a work in progress. It does not yet contain all of the requests that we have received.

Activities Stream/Notifications

Feature	Request	Date requested	Status
Mark as read	Provide automated “mark as read” functionality	During beta (prior to October 2016) Also October 25, 2016	Delivered See also https://ideas.sap.com/D38205.
Mark as read	Make “mark as read” button more prominent	During beta (prior to October 2016)	Delivered
Clear notifications	Give the ability to clear all notifications with one click	During beta (prior to October 2016)	Delivered
Customization	Allow more customization in how the Activity Stream is displayed	During beta (prior to October 2016)	Filter by primary tag delivered Activity Stream UI Overhaul delivered
Notification flag	Make sure that the notification counter refreshes automatically	October 10, 2016	Delivered (similar to item below) Received 24 votes as of May 25, 2017 https://ideas.sap.com/D37716 The notification counter now automatically updates (vanishes) on clicking the universal avatar and only shows number of NEW notifications. A separate "unread notification counter" has been implemented within the notification service that shows the number of unread items exclusively and updates without having to refresh the page.
Notification counter	Update notification counter automatically	October 11, 2016	Delivered (similar to item above) Received 28 votes as of May 28, 2017 https://ideas.sap.com/D37770 The notification counter now automatically updates on clicking the universal avatar and only shows number of NEW notifications. A separate "unread notification counter" has been implemented within the notification service that shows the number of unread items exclusively and updates without having to refresh the page.
Overview of followed tags	Provide overview of followed tags	October 11, 2016	Delivered This idea has 55 votes as of May 8, 2017. It addresses big functionality gap. (See https://ideas.sap.com/D37764.) We delivered Manage Tag Subscriptions functionality in the profile in October 2017. Read more in this post: https://answers.sap.com/articles/383192/status-update-manage-tag-subscriptions-from-one-lo.html
Email notifications	Add email notifications from Activity Stream	During beta (prior to October 2016)	Accepted There is a similar idea on the radar – email notification for new questions and blogs from followed primary tags
Notification options	Add the ability to choose which notifications you’d like to receive and how (e.g., mobile vs. email)	During beta (prior to October 2016)	Accepted (partially) On our radar but not a priority. The “How” part is implemented partially as users can “choose” whether they would like to receive email notifications or not. In the future if we can add text-based notifications, then we will probably consider that as well. The functionality that is being requested will only enhance the user experience. It does not necessarily fill any gap that we have now. Once we have more notifications of other types (such as new content notifications, etc.), then this need for users to “manage” which notifications they receive to increase. And that is probably when this feature will be refined.
Activity stream	Give users the ability to group the Activity Stream by thread, activity type, tag, etc.	October 10, 2016	Accepted Tentatively scheduled for Q3 25 votes as of May 25, 2017 https://ideas.sap.com/D37721 Should be implemented along with ideas https://ideas.sap.com/D37707 and https://ideas.sap.com/D40252 (which is partially accepted).
More notification options	Enable the sending of notifications of ALL activity in a question to everyone related to that question	October 10, 2016	Accepted As of May 8, 2017, this was the highest-rated idea in Idea Place -- with 72 votes. (See https://ideas.sap.com/D37707.) This also shares features with other ideas We have implemented part of this idea so we should address the remaining gaps. Further delivery is tentatively planned for Q3. (See also https://ideas.sap.com/D40036.)
Activity stream	Allow users to follow questions via the Activity Stream	October 12, 2016	Accepted (partially delivered) Even though this idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37820) only had 6 votes, it was delivered in Q2 2017 -- as this functionality was part of broader improvements. Users can use the filters available in their followed activities to narrow down the activities that they see. They can click on the primary tag filter to show activities related to only one primary tag that they follow. They can then click on the "Question and Answer" filter to only filter questions, answers, and comments from a particular primary tag. This should help them isolate activities that interest them.
Email notifications	Provide email notifications for new content (blogs or questions) from user tag subscriptions	October 17, 2016	Accepted This idea has 58 votes as of May 8, 2017 -- and other ideas have similar requests for email notifications (some of which has been provided). (See https://ideas.sap.com/D37929.) Idea addresses big functionality gap. Not sure if this feature will live on Activity Stream or Universal Profile In this case, this is currently a big functionality gap and the idea is accepted. Delivery is tentatively planned for Q3. Please note that this idea is the same as https://ideas.sap.com/D38361 and similar to https://ideas.sap.com/D38075. So the status here applies to all. (See also https://ideas.sap.com/D37968.)
Following	Add list of all content I’m following & “stop following” functionality in Activity Stream	During beta (prior to October 2016)	Under review "Stop following" idea under consideration but needs prioritization
Notifications page	Add new features to improve the page (see status for more information)	October 10, 2016	Under review With 24 votes as of June 6, 2017, the idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37711) consists of four parts (which may have different decisions): Preview pane (not planned for notifications) Automatic read check when message clicked / link followed (already delivered) A filter to show only unread or all messages (for future consideration) Open notification link in new page. (for future consideration)
Language filter	Include a language filter in the Activity Stream for followed tags	October 11, 2017	Under review This idea has 14 votes as of May 5, 2017 (https://ideas.sap.com/D37776), but it is not a priority as of that date. At a later time in the community when users have a large number of primary tag subscriptions such filters can be helpful. Currently users do not follow primary tags from other languages. This feature will allow them to venture out (giving them the peace of mind that they can still filter such second languages out from their streams if need be). In short, this remains under review.
Fiori solution	Replace Activities and Notifications using a Fiori/SAPUI5 based Master - Detail structure	January 27, 2017	Under review As of May 8, 2017, this was the second highest-rated idea in Idea Place -- with 66 votes. (See https://ideas.sap.com/D40252.) Idea won't be implemented with the suggested solution. We will not use Fiori to build such an implementation. We will, however, be implementing the functionality that is being requested through the idea itself -- with a tentative target of Q3. (See also https://ideas.sap.com/D40831.)
Overview page	Provide a configurable overview page with content I can subscribe to	March 29, 2017	Under review This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D41643) has 10 votes. It's similar to https://ideas.sap.com/D37764, but requests for follow list of all content (not just primary tags). It is under review and possibly planned for the second half of 2017.
Additional filter	Add a filter in activity stream to show not-answered questions only	October 20, 2016	Acknowledged This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D38076) has 13 votes as of August 26, 2017. We agree that additional filters required, but not in the manner and place suggested here.
Updates	Update activities (Activity Stream and Notifications) so they are usable and useful	October 20, 2016	Acknowledged With 11 votes as of June 6, 2017, this idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D38059) consists of several parts -- all of which are acknowledged. It is difficult to address as a single idea, and the items have been addressed through other ideas. Therefore, it is not rejected, nor is it fully implemented. We'll leave as under consideration until a time that the poster feels that all items have been addressed.
Icons	Add icons to indicate types of activity (comments, blog posts, questions answered, direct messages, etc.)	During beta (prior to October 2016)	Not planned
Marking notifications	Introduce functionality so that after marking Notification as READ it disappears from the list	October 11, 2016	Not planned (Idea should be considered when we develop Notifications filters. Currently the plan is to not to implement as described in the idea. We can implement a filter in the Notification service that filters read/unread items. This would meet the requirement without having to create two separate notification streams (one with read stuff and one with unread stuff as requested in the idea). More information about the idea at https://ideas.sap.com/D37768. It has 29 votes as of May 8, 2017.
Notification counter	Make sure the Notifications counter is always visible	October 11, 2016	Not planned (exactly as requested) The idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37785) has 8 votes. The notification counter only shows number of new notifications. A separate counter has been implemented inside the notification service that shows the number of unread notifications. We are not considering showing the total number of notifications at all times without updating.
Items loaded into activity stream	Add functionality to load more items in activity stream automatically	October 18, 2016	Not planned (Although the idea has 30 votes in Idea Place as of May 8, 2017 -- see https://ideas.sap.com/D37986 -- it will not be implemented as proposed. We were able to increase the number of activities and notifications shown in the user's activity stream from 10 to 20 per page. This should allow users to view double the items without having to press "more" button.)
View optimization	Allow user parameters in profile to optimize view experience of activities (to change column width)	October 18, 2016	Not planned The idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37988) has 10 votes as of June 6, 2017. We will not be considering such functionality for the activity stream services that allows users to modify the container widths. However, we have made big changes to the Activity Stream since this idea has been posted and have been able to decrease white space greatly. We have also been able to increase the number of activities shown per page from 10 to 20.
RSS feed	Add an RSS feed for Activity Stream	January 30, 2017	Not planned This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D40277) has 6 votes as of June 6, 2017. Such an implementation is outside the scope of the improvements that we are making to the Activity Stream and Notification topics. Once more pressing issues and functionality gaps are met, we can then consider such enhancements. For now, the Activity Stream by itself is supposed to be a form/variation of an RSS feed.

Scheduling	Give authors the ability to schedule the publication of blog posts	January 22, 2017	Not planned by SAP This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D40114) has 4 votes as of May 16, 2017. Not a priority at the moment but could be revisited.

Community Topic Pages

Feature	Request	Date requested	Status
Industry pages	Add community topic pages for all industries	October 18, 2016	Already offered The idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37983) had 24 votes by May 10, 2017. Changed the status to "Already Offered" because we have been on our way to creating distinct topic pages for each of the industries.
Product page	Integrate SAP Community Topic Page directly with product pages on SAP.com	October 17, 2016	Under review The idea is at https://ideas.sap.com/D37926 and has 45 votes as of June 26, 2017. This type of integration is essential, but is currently dependent upon other factors. So remains "under review" for now.

Content creation	Give users links to create questions and blogs directly from community topic pages	October 31, 2016	Under review The idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D38306) has 12 votes.

Gamification

Feature	Request	Date requested	Status
Q&A points	Award points for helpful answers	November 7, 2016	Delivered This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D38449) requests something that was available.
Credit breakdown	Show how karma credits are awarded (so people can see and understand when they are added and removed)	October 10, 2016	Accepted Idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37758) has 12 votes as of June 28, 2017.

Information in user profile	Show gamification/reputation information when viewing someone's user profile	October 18, 2016	Accepted Idea has 4 votes as of June 28, 2017 and is available at https://ideas.sap.com/D38004
Placement of karma points	Make karma points easy to find (placed at top)	October 18, 2016	Accepted Idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D38003) has 2 votes as of June 28, 2017. Placement will be evaluated at UX level. We agree that it should be easier to find and have a more intuitive home. Unlikely to receive prioritization in 2017.
Reputation for blogs	Increase reputation for users who submit quality blogs	December 15, 2016	Accepted (partially) While this idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D39536) had negative votes, it was accepted -- to the extent we will be recognizing quality blog contributions via missions and the reputation score, once the full reputation program is rolled out. We do not, however, plan to use karma credits or points to recognize blog contributions. Karma credits are an embedded party of the Q&A platform and limited to the content types and quality indicators of that platform.
Points for ideas	Award karma points for submissions in Idea Place	October 18, 2016	Not planned by SAP This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D38005) received 3 votes. Karma is not tied to Idea Place. It is specific to SAP Community.
Legacy points	Add legacy points to karma points	October 31, 2016	Not planned by SAP This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D38316) received 7 votes. It is not planned as legacy points and karma points aren't comparable -- as they aren't award in the same way for the same things.

Navigation

Feature	Request	Date requested	Status
Menu	Add sub-menu to "About Community" in header	October 12, 2016	Delivered This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37827) had 4 votes as of May 16, 2017. Mega menu addresses most of this idea. We'll be updating this as time goes on to ensure that all needs continue to be addressed in this new menu.
Link to last reply	Add a button/link in content overview lists to jump directly to last reply	October 12, 2016	Accepted (partially delivered) This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37816) has 18 votes as of May 16, 2017. We've implemented this request in Activities Stream & Notifications. We'll continue to drive from a navigation perspective, but we need to look at technical aspects for other platforms (e.g., Q&A).
Unified access	Unify interface and meta information to make it easier to answer questions	October 17, 2016	Accepted This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37933) has 4 votes as of May 16, 2017. It is partially delivered with the introduction of the "Answered" vs. "Unanswered" filters in Q&A. However, we are also taking a look at the wider UI to unify the display of metadata across all our list/search result views.
Customization	Allow users to customize their own "places" broken down by content types, tags, people, etc., they prefer	October 13, 2016	Under review This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37869) has 20 votes as of May 20, 2017.

We need to investigate the best way to incorporate this implementation into other plans.
Filters	Provide a "browse community" filter	October 10, 2016	Not planned by SAP This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37759) has 13 votes as of October 16, 2016. Detailed explanation about why "not planned" can be found on the idea page, linked above.

We are planning to enable moderation of profiles, but in this first round it would be a higher-level feature, for moderators/global moderators/admins. Once that is in place, we're considering implementing a Moderator Alert button for users to alert the team to inappropriate profiles. Not all features will be added (e.g., nominating a Member of the Month).
Country and language selection	Separate country and language selection in Profile/align People Profile and country selection on SAP.com	Shortly after launch (after October 10, 2016)	Not planned by SAP These things aren't really connected. The country selector is not part of profile, and that will never be separated from language due to the overall site strategy. There is no relationship between the country selector in sap.com and the country field in the profile. All it does in profile is show which country the users wish to display as their country.

Community involvement	Involve SAP Community in design and testing (and make gamification part of involvement)	December 1, 2016	Delivered (partially) This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D39218) has 9 votes as of May 16, 2017. This is delivered in the current format of user advisory councils on various topics. We will continue to investigate ways to increase the direct influence our users have on development decisions. Currently, gamification is on hold, so that part of the idea will have to wait until future development is opened up.

Colors	Change color scheme or let users pick one or create one	October 12, 2016	Not planned This idea (https://ideas.sap.com/D37830) received 16 votes, but the color scheme is based on SAP.com design standards and must remain consistent with overall site and branding.
