These releases will feature a more modular approach for mySupport, resulting in a state-of-the-art landing page enabling us to easily add more services in the future. Some features closely related to the Forum and mostly used by Forum users will return to the Forum application, namely personal messages, favorites / notifications for Forum entries and avatars. This will make the functions more comfortable for the usage within the forum. Main benefits: Personal Messages will be faster New messages will be shown more prominent within the Forum Forum Filters will change to favorites, notifications can be activated for each conference / user separately Notifications will be sent with less delay Favorite and notification management will be easier to handle Forum favorites and notifications on favorites as well as avatars will be migrated from mySupport to the Forum application. Personal messages will not be migrated. If you want to archive you messages please use the export option within mySupport. On the mySupport side, you will no longer find personal messages; forum-related favorites and filters will not show up in mySupport. We’ll keep you updated with more details during the next weeks. Best regards, Online Support Team – CS Moderator

CS Moderator Moderator Joined: 9/1/2005 Last visit: 4/12/2019 Posts: 3736 Rating: (167)	Dear users of the Online Support. The first steps in the new design of mySupport are right ahead. With the December release (planned for this first week of December), the Favorites for Forum contents, the Avatars and the Personal Messages function will be relocated to the Technical Forum. This means that the Personal Messages function will no longer be available in mySupport, and likewise that you will no longer find in mySupport the Favorites and the Filters for Forum contents. Please note: Personal Messages will not be migrated into the Forum. Messages that were so far forwarded to your Personal Messages will be sent again as e-mails after this release. The conversion is done by the program. E-mail notifications will not be activated again until after the switchover of the functions to the Forum. These messages will not be forwarded subsequently. Best regards, Your CS Moderator of the Online Support Team

As a sneak peek, you'll find a preview of the new mySupport landing page attached. The core functions for managing Filters, Favorites and Notifications are better integrated from this release onwards and are considerably better performing. Please note that the little-used Tagging function will no longer be available in the new mySupport. To group your favorites in the future, use the option to organize the favorites in folders. If you have any questions feel free to contact us. Best regards, Your Online Support Team Attachment LP_PreView_EN_frame_2019-02.png (111 Downloads)

Here is a short summary of the new features. To optimize our service offering, we are now providing a new version of mySupport, which has been re-built from ground up. The well-accepted features are now presented in a modernized user interface, new features can now be added successively: The central mySupport functions for managing Filters, Favorites, and Notifications, as well as the Support Request are now fully integrated with the Online Support, resulting in a much better performance. Additionally the Support Request now provides some new features: As the owner of a Siemens Industry Service Card or as a customer with a respective service contract, you can now call up services directly via the "Support Request". An exchange platform can now be used to provide the Technical Support with large files for problem solving. Further improvements are already in progress. Some features closely related to the Forum and mostly used by Forum users are now fully integrated with the Forum application, namely personal messages, favorites / notifications for Forum entries and avatars. In mySupport these functions and data will no longer be available. Forum and Product Support notifications are now generated and sent by a new tool, and in the up-to-date Siemens layout. For streamlining purposes, some little-used features have not been taken over to the new mySupport: The Tagging function is no longer available in the new mySupport. You may still group your favorites by organizing your favorites in folders. The Entries last viewed function is no longer available in the new mySupport. However, you can still view and return to your previously viewed articles by using the respective section in the mySupport cockpit, available on all Online Support pages; only the feature for managing your content browsing history is no longer available. The Extranet overview is no longer available in the new mySupport. As a logged-in user, you can see and select your available extranets in the header menu, left of your user name. To modify your User Data, simply click on your user name in the header, available on each page. Best regards, Online Support Team

Assuming the new functionality should look something like the example picture. Then it means the changes are not available right at this moment. BR

#dP Platinum Member Joined: 3/17/2017 Last visit: 4/21/2019 Posts: 2686 Rating: (520)	Nice job. Now comes the time to do testing. is everything in a working condition or are there some things to finalize? For example "My Filters". It is not apparent to me how this should function. Will there be some screen-cast to show how these functionalities work? It would be most helpful to have one "Explain" or "how-to" item that shows what the functions do. Very few of us speak English / German, but (moving) pictures speaks much more. The focus on making Siemens' support more personal is much appreciated. Regards. EDIT 1: What happens to these items listed in the right margin (mySupport Cockpit)? Before there was a way to remove items from the list. Now there is no action possible; 'All posts read' goes nowhere helpful.
