For more information, please visit the SAP Help Portal 72 10/16/2023 Changes to Peer Recommendations We changed some of the behavior for Peer Recommendations for both the legacy and new Learning experiences. The following changes apply to both the legacy and new Learning experiences: Recommendations expire and no longer display to recipients after a con gurable number of days. The default value is 365. Administrators can set a value between 30 and 730. The setting to hide recommendations after they've been viewed once is no longer enforced. Recipients control whether recommendations remain visible or are removed. Recommendations that were made fewer than 365 days ago display to recipients, even if they were previously hidden in the legacy experience. If a peer recommends a Learning activity, the recommendation isn't sent if the activity is already in a recipient's Learning plan, in their bookmarks, or in their Learning history. The sender is alerted when they try to make the recommendation. In the legacy experience, suggestions from peers, administrators, and machine learning were combined in one view. To provide meaningful context, we separated these suggestions in the new Learning experience. The change in data structure and the behavioral changes improve recommendations in the new Learning experience while preserving the functionality in the legacy experience. Con guration Requirements There are two con guration settings impacted by this release. Both are located in System Con guration System Administration Con guration LMS_ADMIN . These apply to both the legacy and new Learning experience: A new setting, peerRecommendationExpiration, controls the number of days after which a peer recommendation expires. The default value is 365. The existing setting, hideViewedP2PRecommendations, is no longer used. Recommendations that were made fewer than 365 days ago display to recipients, even if they were previously hidden in the legacy experience. After 1H 2023 is deployed, we'll migrate your peer recommendations to the new data structure. You can view migration status in Learning Administration System Administration Home Page Readiness Information Application Administration Integrated Learning Settings Learning Peer Suggestion data migration . Note If you created custom Plateau Report Designer (PRD) reports for peer recommendations, you'll need to re-create these reports using the new data table references.
