Merative Ideas Portal

Shape the future of Merative!

We invite you to shape the future of Merative, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:

Post your ideas

Start by posting ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted and upvote them if they matter to you,

  1. Post an idea

  2. Upvote ideas that matter most to you

  3. Get feedback from the Merative team to refine your idea

Help Merative prioritize your ideas and requests

The Merative team may need your help to refine the ideas so they may ask for more information or feedback. The offering manager team will then decide if they can begin working on your idea. If they can start during the next development cycle, they will put the idea on the priority list. Each team at Merative works on a different schedule, where some ideas can be implemented right away, others may be placed on a different schedule.

Receive notification on the decision

Some ideas can be implemented at Merative, while others may not fit within the development plans for the product. In either case, the team will let you know as soon as possible. In some cases, we may be able to find alternatives for ideas which cannot be implemented in a reasonable time.

Utility app reporting which XML attributes (IEG attributes, Evidence Metadata attributes, Display Rules attributes) changed between product releases for reporting purpose

Projects write reports to query SPM Curam XML data. To ensure that Curam upgrades don't break existing reports, we can have a utility application tool which reports which IEG attributes, Evidence Metadata attributes, Display Rules attributes. This would help product upgrade process.

    Hi Sigitas,

    We have reviewed your enhancement suggestion.
    Based on the information provided, our understanding of your request is as follows:
    • You are requesting an enhancement that will provide support for developer analysis of what changes have occurred to the structure of data that is stored in XML format, such as Decision Display Rules attributes, during the upgrade process.

    The theme is aligned with our current multi-year strategy for our product and we have accepted your suggestion as a consideration for a future release.
    Not all items under consideration will make it into a release. As plans are confirmed, you will be notified when a specific release includes this enhancement.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your ideas with us. We are committed to involving our users in building our product roadmap and appreciate your suggestions.

    Regards,

    Hi Sigitas,

    We have reviewed your enhancement suggestion and require more information to properly understand the requirements.

    In the description it appears that this phrase may not be complete? "we can have a utility application tool which reports which IEG attributes, Evidence Metadata attributes, Display Rules attributes..."

    We need to question what such a tool would offer up and above those industry-standard tools already out there which have been built for exactly that purpose.

    Perhaps, a schematic, a diagram or a report syntax as a way of a requirements document for the utility tool would be useful to help us try and understand the requirement here?

    Please provide the requested information within 30 days so we may proceed with our evaluation. If we do not hear from you within that timeframe we will have to close the request due to insufficient information.

    Thank you,
    Shane McFadden, SPM Offering Management team
