Hello Innovative Users!

Designed to focus specifically on smoothing workflows that allow staff to work more easily and effectively, this challenge garnered 29 ideas and received 1040 votes!

 

The Winner 

 

Submission: Recover from printer failure when printing notices

Inspired by: Ideas submitted by Edwin Byamugisha, Jeremy Goldstein, and Alison Pruntel

Proposed for: Sierra 5.3, Q4 2020

“We have seen this topic come up several times in our IdeaLab challenges,” said Laura Frasca, Sierra Product Owner. “I am very pleased to see this idea on top in Pairwise voting. Automatic Renewal improved the workflow of printing notices in Sierra 4.0 and this idea is an opportunity to improve the error handling.”

Remember, submissions live on in Idea Lab and our Always Open Space never closes. If you submitted an enhancement that is still important to you or you’ve just discovered a development opportunity, the Always Open space provides a place to post that idea for any Sierra product.
