Access Privileges

  • Hello.

    When an access privilege is described as "THIS ACCESS PRIVILEGE IS NOT CURRENTLY IMPLEMENTED IN UNGERBOECK.", is there a way to know if that's a discontinued legacy item vs. something waiting a future release?  

    E.G.: Event Management and Coordination - Access Privilege Filter: View Only User-Related Events

    Zak.

    Hi Zak,

    The presence of, "...not currently implemented...," verbiage generally indicates that the access privilege is related to functionality planned for future release. 

    Discontinued access privileges often indicate their last functional release and/or refer to the new access privilege(s) that replace the existing privilege.

    Regards,

  • Thanks, Sam.

    Do you have the crystal ball that shows what release a privilege might land in?! Or is there a way to upvote one that's stalled?

    Aside from sifting thru "What's New" pdfs, any way to see if an access privilege that's not available in one's active version has been activated in a more current version? 

    i.e. I'm on 30.97C; i don't see mention of the "View Only User-Related Events" privilege in .98 or .99 WN files.  Is there another place to check for newly-activated - or all active - privileges for each software release, to know if updating would unlock this access privilege?  

    Zak.

    Hi Zak,

    I'm sad to say someone borrowed my crystal ball and never returned it. 

    Ungerboeck non-development staff also heavily rely on the What's New documentation for release information. Development teams rely on it for areas outside of their focus. This document essentially serves as a clearinghouse for this information both inside and outside of the organization. 

    You can advocate for desired functionality using a couple different methods.

    • Post a Product Idea in the Community - This will be your endorsement of the idea, and will allow other clients to upvote it as well. You could consider this the grassroots method, and as long as the idea is feasible, it can be very effective at Ungerboeck. It also helps get the attention of the specific product manager and their team, who may even reach out about the idea.
    • Contact your Account Representative and/or Client Success Manager (CSM) -  Register your interest with these individuals and they will not only help you monitor for versions and release dates, but advocate on your behalf with product management.

    There may be other user-facing tools offered in the future, but these options are currently available. At minimum, I recommend taking advantage of your CSM. They are uniquely positioned to assist with this type of request.

    Regards,

    Sam
