Sometimes we will receive an idea that is either inappropriate for our product or we just have no plan to implement in the future. It would be great if we could give an Admin Response in this case as currently the submitter does not receive notifications unless we actively expose the idea to our other clients on the portal. Our only other option is to email the submitter outside of Aha! but this may paint the rejecting party in a bad light.
I'm more than happy to have a debate on why we should allow our clients to see all ideas in the portal, even the ones we have no plan to implement.
