We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

Dear Mr. McAuliffe,
Sorry for the delay in responding to your requirement.
I've done some research on this RFE and noticed that it and APAR PI52182 came from the same PMR. The PMR shows that there was a discussion on whether this would be a enhancement or a defect in IMS. Initially the technical support team requested an enhancement but later changed their mind and accepted an APAR. Is this RFE enhancement still needed if the problem reported in APAR PI52182 is resolved?
Thank you for the clarification.
Best Regards,
Jeff Fontaine
