  • 1.  Where do RFE's go?

    Posted Fri January 11, 2019 06:52 AM
    Hi,

    there seem to be 2 sites where RFE's are collected now. The old one, with single signon, and a lot of functionality, and a new simple one.

    Could you explain what the idea behind 2 websites is? And can I get the email notifications of new RFE's back? And an overview of watched and voted for RFE's? That would be really nice.

    Reinier

    PS For other users: if you care about your old RFE's, it is possible to vote for them again in the new system.

    Hi,

    Thanks for posting to the Community!

    IBM Analytics are transitioning from the old RFE system to the new Ideas portal. Everything that was in an open state on the old portal has been migrated. Going forward this will be the platform of choice for entering ideas and requests. 

    Thank you,

    This is just another example of IBM decisions making life for existing customers harder... Completely new website (domain), less functionality, no single signon... just because Cognos is moved towards a cloud product?
    I don't know exactly how many changes with IBM support and product websites the Cognos community had to tolerate in the past 10 years, but it feels these were far too many. Moreover, in my opinion, finding relevant documents is harder than ever. This is especially surprising regarding the progress in AI technology.

    We found the following:

    ​When they move the RFE's from the old site, they brought them over as guest.  You can take the number in parenthesis on the old site and search the new site using to find the one entered by you.  But they only show up under voted on and no my idea's.
