Demand Management overview
In Demand Management assess the ideas submitted through the Idea Portal or ideation module and promote the feasible ideas to demands. Track the progress of an accepted idea as it moves through the demand life cycle (idea to a demand, to a project, enhancement, change, or defect).
Demands are available in the Next Experience for Demand Management. For more information, see Next Experience for Demand Management.
