It's the end of the year! Many people are on vacation. Things slow down at work. This is a great time to clean up your discussions.
To help find your discussions please refer to this blog:
How to close a discussion and why
I ask ALL posters to add a final reply to their discussions. Thank those that helped you. It is the polite thing to do.
If your question was unanswered, indicate this in your reply and explain why if possible. Explain what you tested, what you tried, what kind of work around you had to do? If you changed a business process, what did you change? You can then mark your own reply as the "correct" answer. You will not get points for that!! But you will close out an unanswered question.
YOU asked the question...Chances are some one tried to help. Give them some feedback.
Remember, this is the internet...your question could be here for decades. The chances are very high your question will show up in someone's Google query someday. Give them something. Even if it's just a confirmation that something can't be done, that can often be invaluable to people.
Also keep in mind that the better YOU treat the contributors here that help answer questions, the more likely they will be to spend time on your NEXT question. I've personally spent hours working on a question and testing scenarios for posters that posed good, well thought out, well researched questions and who I knew responded promptly to questions or requests for clarifications or additional info.
Build your relationships here just as you would those in your RT work enviornment.
Part of that is closing your questions!!
Thanks and I wish you all a Happy New Year!
