I wanted to complete the mission for submitting an idea.  However I did submit an idea but did not complete the mission.  Can an explanation be given as to what Ideas are given consideration and why others are not?

Is data a required part of the idea?

Hi Reed:

There is a blog listing several issues we found from most ideas.  Please check this blog: http://www.saphana.com/community/blogs/blog/2014/06/19/incubate-your-ideas-through-sap-idea-incubato...

And data is required.  Without data, we can't really build a reasonable prototype for the problem.

Thanks!

Best,

Jordan

Hi,

We recently got multiple feedback about no responding status.  Sorry for the delay. 

Jun finished her internship in SAP and left SAP.  To help us reviewing the status for submissions, we will publish submitted ideas and their status in incubator.saphana.com in the next two weeks.  You can check the status from the website directly. 

Thanks a lot for your participation and support!

Best,

Jordan

Hi Bruce, very sorry for the delayed response. I have been OOO for the summer. Thank you so much for your active participation.

From my understanding, your blog post around SAP Idea Incubator has been rejected, which was suggested to be a non-question discussion. It really rarely happen. I have seen around ten blog posts about Idea Incubator here in SCN and they are all very attractive. It would ok if you post a discussion, we would award you with the contribution badge this one time.

Thank you again, please let me know if you have any other concern.

Regards, Jun
