States missing on idea portal

[Mike D1]

Hi

We have recently purchased SPM standard (mainly for the idea portal). I have installed the following modules, which I understand we are entitled to.

• Project & Portfolio Management
• Demand Management
• Financial Planning
• Resource Management
• Release Management
• Innovation Management
• Digital Portfolio Management
• Alignment Planner Workspace

I have been reviewing the documentation and now learning sites, however a couple of things I've noticed is that we are missing a couple of states for ideas:

- Unlikely to implement

- In backlog

Also upon reading evaluate idea when the idea manager selects accept, it should automatically set to "In Backlog: from the State list, however it isn't doing so because of the above-mentioned.

Many thanks for any advice..

Cheers

Mike

When i created a new value it started showing for me:-

Can you try to create the unlikely to Implement option from the below portion itself and add it to the choices.

Please mark my answer as correct based on Impact.

Please mark my answer as correct based on Impact.

That works if I give the field a different value, however it seems when I give it the same value (7) that is for the choice on im_idea_core, it doesn't work. I need it to be the same value as I believe the value is being used in client scripts for automation.

Hello,

Just to be sure can you check on the idea table on your side if there are any custom client script which is making the field option hidden.

Also you are talking about the value right not the sequence. The sequence can be different it will not be an issue

[Mike D1]

Yes I am talking about the value.

I have also checked UI policies and client script on the idea table and there is nothing causing this,

Hi Saurav

I created a new custom table extended form im_idea_core and now the states are showing

Thanks
