Welcome to the Alloy Ideas Portal đź‘‹ Here, you'll be able to browse improvement ideas raised by our community, vote on ideas you agree with or even raise your own ideas. We review all ideas raised and we endeavour to respond to all raised ideas.
Any ideas submitted will be immediately visible on the portal for others to vote on, please do not include anything in your ideas you do not wish to be shared with others.
To clarify – I don’t mean the standard “Description” attribute that can be added to designs to be used on items within the design. I mean an optional core description on the “General” tab that can hold text explaining what the design is used for, who makes use of it, what it links to, what information a lookup list holds, or anything else relevant to the users.
I think this would help anyone viewing the design – whether it’s IT users who have configured Alloy, new/existing business users of the system, or Yotta support when investigating issues – understand at a glance what the design is used for. Given that the names of designs have to be concise, it may not be obvious what a design is just going by the name of it.
Please see the attached image as an example.
Dear user,
We appreciate your valuable feedback and the ideas you’ve shared with us. As part of our ongoing efforts to improve our products and services, we are streamlining our idea management process.
To ensure we focus on the most relevant and impactful suggestions, we will be closing all ideas raised before 1st January 2024. However, we encourage you to submit any new or existing ideas that are still important to you through the ideas portal as before.
We have implemented new processes that will ensure newly raised ideas are dealt with efficiently and effectively.
Thank you for your continued support and input—we truly value your contributions.
Best regards,
Andy
Very good point about those other areas, Adam. Great examples that would help everyone as well.
This would be awesome to have for everything - for interfaces, workflows, imports, etc. Ideally also the Core and Module Designs/Interfaces would come with their own descriptions.
