Some of you know that we can submit ideas to SAP by starting at the following link (SAP login required)…
In the decade I have been working with BusinessObjects I have submitted around 25 ideas. Most have been rejected (“Not Planned”), some are being reviewed, and a few have been implemented. I think for an idea to be considered it needs to have at least 5 votes from unique companies (i.e., getting my co-workers to vote for my idea will not help it reach the threshold).
I wanted to drop links to a few of my recent ideas so you can vote on them if you think they would be useful to you…
Allow Retention of Context Choices When Purging Data
Expose Document Metadata Within Document
Display Object Source in Query Panel
Search Variable Formula
Require Value For Group of Optional Prompts
I also want to encourage you to submit your own ideas. Be prepared to wait a bit though. Conditionally hiding tabs in a WebI report? That was an idea I submitted in May 2013. It was delivered in 4.3 SP2 in December 2021 which my company is in the process of testing and installing.
