How to Request a Feature

If you have an idea for a new feature to improve Ascend AP, you can submit a feature request directly within the application. Other users can view your requests and vote on them, and Ascend prioritizes the requests that receive the most votes.

• Awaiting Review

To ensure you’re up-to-date, you receive an email notifying you when the status of your request has changed. If needed, your Customer Success Manager may contact you for more information about your request.
