Idea Submissions allows people who are not standard Amplify users to create ideas for new initiatives that will contribute to the organization's strategic objectives. These ideas are then reviewed before being accepted as projects.

Contact your Amplify System Administrator about enabling Idea Submissions.

Configuring Idea Submissions

Ideas can be configured to be created under specified areas of the hierarchy; allowing you to have a centralised 'idea bucket' across the entire organization, or one for each business unit/program (see example below). It is recommended that ideas are created using the same Initiative Classification as your projects. This will make moving and converting ideas into working projects easier.

Once Idea Submissions have been enabled for your organization you will be able to define where you want new ideas to be created:

1. Navigate to Administration
2. Select Site Settings from the Admin menu
3. Scroll down to the Initiative Submissions Parent ID field
4. Enter the IDs of the initiative(s) that you want new ideas to be created under

If configuring multiple 'idea buckets', these should be separated by a comma. The Initiative Classification you wish to use to create ideas with should be set as an 'Allowed Initiative Classification' under the parent initiative classification configuration.
