New Sierra and Polaris Challenges in Idea Lab
Beginning September 12th, you can help Innovative decide what specific “undo” options would save the most time, reduce the most errors, and improve the system for all users.

These challenges spring from a winning idea from the Always Open space in Idea Lab: Undo Function, from Gretchen Allen (Fayetteville Public Library). The Innovative Product Owners want to implement this idea, but since they can't put an undo button everywhere, our community needs to help Innovative prioritize undo functions across various system functions and behaviors.

New to Idea Lab?  All Innovative customers from across the globe, using any Innovative product, are encouraged to get involved!  Anyone from any Innovative library may register for a personal account on https://idealab.iii.com and join the conversation.  Visit our Idea Lab FAQ for more information.

Idea Lab : We have a Polaris Winner and We Have a new Polaris Challenge

Thanks to everyone who participated in the mini-challenge, "Undo Options for Polaris."  Innovative product managers have reviewed the top-ranked ideas and we are pleased to announce that Keith Davis' idea, "Undo Deletion of Record Set,"  https://idealab.iii.com/undooptionsforpolari/Page/ViewIdea?ideaid=4961  has been chosen to be placed on the product roadmap for implementation.  Thank you, Keith, for submitted the winning idea, and to every one for helping this idea become a reality, especially Keith's fellow moderators for the challenge, Gwyneth Jelinek, Eleanor Crumblehulme, and Polaris Product Owner Kellie Conner. 


But this is no time to log off Idea Lab!  The next Polaris challenge, "What's Next for Leap? starts Monday October 29.  Between now and Monday November 12, log into Idea Lab to help prioritize the next features for Leap.  You will be discussing and ranking 12 ideas, some chosen from the previous Polaris Leap challenge, that are planned for releases in the next year.  Since Innovative can't do all of these great enhancements immediately, we need the Polaris community to help move the most important enhancements to the top of the list.
