SPOC Audit Trail feature should take Audit Log Logstream name from Proclib Member CSLOIxxx - Resubmit of Declined RFE 35661

It would result useful and also safe to have SPOC Audit Trail feature automatically read Audit Log Logstream name from Proclib Member CSLOIxxx instead of requesting user to specify it in Panel CSLUPRA .
In addition to ensure a more practical usage of the feature, this would also ensure consistent Log display and Command submission. In fact currently customer could possibly specify a IMSPlex name "XXXX" in Audit Trail feature Preferences, and by mistake set Logstream name of another IMSPlex "YYYY"; in this case while looking at "YYYY" IMSPlex Logstream from Panel CSLUPQA any Command user would submit would unexpectedly go to the other IMSPlex "XXXX" .

After having received the notification that original RFE 35661 was Declined and can now be re-submitted, Customer has confirmed that he is still interested in this feature, and so wants IBM to re-evaluate it.

    Hi,

    Thank you for your interest in keeping IMS a vital and successful product. Software development has continuously evolved during IMS's lifetime, and so has IMS itself. We have kept pace with, adopted, and implemented many industry standard best practices within our organization, including Continuous Delivery, Design Thinking, and Agile.

    When choosing new features to add from the list of requirements in our backlog, we assess which will bring the most value to as many clients as possible and prioritize those.

    At this time, after reviewing this request for enhancement and assessing its potential value, we have decided to reject it. The reason we are rejecting RFE 86347 is that it isn't strategic to our current roadmap.

    We appreciate your input to IMS, and we hope that you will continue to submit ideas for improvements as customer feedback is a key component to shaping the future direction of IMS.

    Thank you.

    Sincerely,
    Daphne Isom - dsteele4@us.ibm.com
