Cloud Customer Connect 
Personalize Your Customer Connect Homepage Based on feedback from our community survey conducted earlier this year, we are pleased to introduce three new ways you can personalize your homepage (accessible from the Contribute menu option and under the My Stuff > My Home from the top of page).
1. My Favorites
Are you constantly navigating to the same pages to find the latest updates and content? Now you can keep all these Forums, Event Calendars, and Idea Labs in one place on your homepage under My Favorites. It’s easy – just navigate to the forums you visit often and click on the Add to Favorites icon below the forum banner.
Once you have created your "My Favorites" list, you will see it in the upper right hand corner of your homepage. To see the full list of your favorites, just click on Next.
2. Posts from My Network
The community is based on member participation – members find answers they need quickly and easily by viewing posts from their peers. Are there members on the community that you always look to for their insight to help solve problems or share their expertise? You can now follow these knowledge experts by adding them to your network and viewing their latest posts in a new section on the homepage called "Posts from My Network".
To add someone to your personal network, simply click on the member’s name to view their profile, then click the Add to My Network button on that person’s profile.
3. My Recent Posts
The new “My Recent Posts” section on the homepage provides a listing of your posts, regardless of which forum you posted to. You can quickly check here to see if other members have posted comments or questions to your posts. No need to set up My Recent Posts – all your posts will appear here automatically!
We hope you start personalizing your home page using these new features. We would love to hear your feedback!

2. My Favorite Ideas
Here, find ideas you’ve marked as your favorites, as well as related activities (votes, status) for each idea. Keep track of your top picks and see how others respond.
3. Ideas from My Network
This area features ideas from your personal network community. Build your network by adding members you follow for advice, expertise and insight. The larger your network, the more great ideas you’ll access.
4. Recent Ideas
Which ideas are trending in the forums right now? View all recently posted ideas from the Customer Connect community on your favorite idea labs.
5. My Favorite Idea Labs
Here, find ideas posted to your favorite Idea Labs (I.e. Human Capital Management, Talent Management, Enterprise Resource Planning, etc.). Track others’ posts and comments in areas that interest you most.
6. Top 10 Ideas
The Top 10 ideas are drawn from My Favorite Idea Labs, based on community member votes. Vote for your favorites, because your contributions help us develop and design our product roadmap.
We hope you start using your Idea Dashboard to track your favorite ideas. We would love to hear your feedback!

Cloud Customer Connect Announcing an Improved Points System 
At Oracle, we know our community members are special, therefore we are constantly looking for new ways to deliver a unique and rewarding online community experience.
Recently, we conducted 3rd party research on gamification and incentivization with the goal of increasing community collaboration, and we have identified an optimization opportunity.
As a result, our activity-driven points system has been adjusted to align with current social best practices. For example, members are now rewarded with more points when commenting on posts, providing product ideas, or rating other member's contributions. By promoting collaboration, the whole community becomes more vibrant, all while contributors grow their personal brand and reputation.For more details, please visit the Reputation Management – Champion Level page.

Cloud Customer Connect Introducing a New Help Delivery Model Beginning in Update 19D Hello Cloud Applications User,
INTRODUCING A NEW HELP DELIVERY MODEL
Beginning in Oracle Fusion Applications Cloud, Update 19D, you’ll experience a new and improved approach to accessing applications help.
Instead of delivering help through a separate Applications Help portal, all help and documentation will now be available from a single location: the Oracle Help Center. As before, Help links in the applications will continue to open topics that users need to complete their tasks. But now the topics open in the context of a guide on the Oracle Help Center where you can easily see all the related content in a logical sequence.
One thing that hasn’t changed, however, is your ability to manage your company-created help content to meet your business needs.
BENEFITS OF THE NEW DELIVERY MODEL
This new approach brings you an improved user experience:
- Oracle Help Center is now the single solution for all your help and documentation
- No sign-in is required to access help content
- Fewer clicks are required to get help content
- Help opens in a new browser tab or window so you can keep it open while you work
- Help opens with a table of contents so it's easier to find additional related content
- Oracle Help Center supports your mobile devices as well as your desktop
- Management of your own company-created help remains the same
>> Click here to review detail of how you and your users can access help with this new approach and how you can continue to manage your company-created help.
