How to give out reward points?

Former Member

Excuse my ignorance but how do I ensure reward points are distributed? Is this done automatically by SDN? Thanks.

Hi Scott,

follow the link.

https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/index.sdn?page=crp_help.htm.

and in short:

mark your thread as question while creating it. In the anwers you get, you can assign the points by clicking on the stars.

You have to assign the points, not the SDN.

regards

Siggi

Hi Scott,

Siegfried is right, the one who asked the question (don't forget to mark it as such) is the one who spreads the points.

Forum moderators also have the power to give points, as I did for the answer of Siegfried.

You can update as you like.

Best, Mark.

Hi,

I had posted a question to the forum, but while creating the message, I unchecked the "Mark this thread as a question" option by mistake.

So I dont get the stars option on my screen for that particular post.

Hence I am unable to award points to that Post.

Is there any other way I can award points?

Reena

Hi Reena,

You can edit your post and while doing that also mark it as question. I did it for you in your post.

Enjoy, Mark.

Hey Mark,

Thanks a ton. I was able to award points for my other post.

Can you tell me how you did it? So that the next time I make the same mistake, Id be in a position to rectify it myself

Thanks & Regards,

Reena,

"You can edit your post and while doing that also mark it as question"...click on the pencil and follow what Mark said (flag the checkbutton 'mark as question')!

Hi,

I had been wondering how to give reward points until I found out that these elements (as well as the "solbed by me" button) are not shown in Mozilla Firefox (currently version 1.5.0.6).

Is there a special reason why these SDN features are not compatible with Mozilla?

Using IE everything works fine

They do work in FF, I am using it currently, if they are not showing for you then it could be that the thread was either not marked as a question or there is a problem with the user's or your own email address (something new we've noticed lately)

The stars are available in the "questions" you start so when you create a new topic not just a reply. If there is a particular one you are having trouble with give us the link and we will check to see why the stars are not showing for you.

Hi,

I have a question here. Suppose a person creates a thread (the question is marked as answered), i reply to his post, which anthr new person in the post finds it useful. How does that person reward me points?

Because while replying to the post, there is neither an option to mark the post as a question nor a button to edit it.

Hello Soumya,

Once the original post is answered and the poster gives the answer 10 points, that is it.

It is assumed that the 10 point answer is the optimal one. If you have a different, but equally valuable answer, you could ask the original poster to create a new thread.

Best Regards,

I'm pretty sure that only the original poster can assign points. (Otherwise, we'd all have 10**26 points
