    This requirement has been re-assessed. It is not likely that this will be implemented in the next 12-24 months and so it is being declined at this point. The requirement will be kept in the RFE system and might be reassessed in the future. You also have an opportunity to resubmit in twelve months time if you wish it to be reconsidered then.

    Sorry, just saw this below "One simple option is that we remember the user's preference for this button.

    Would that help?" When a user tries to create a resource, we would like an input field to pop up directing the user to input their own resource name. Hope this helps, Thanks, Lisa

    I received an e-mail requesting further information. The diagrams attached to the RFE at the time of submission, detail the issue. Can you please let me know what information you need to proceed? I looked at the RFE and didn't see any update with any specific questions. Thanks, Lisa

    Apologies - wrong RFE. Ignore that question for now!

    One simple option is that we remember the user's preference for this button.

    Would that help?
