# **Q4 2017 Release Highlights: SAP Jam**

 By [AltaFlux Corporation](https://www.altaflux.com/blog/author/altaflux-corporation), Nov, 10 2017, in [SAP Jam](https://www.altaflux.com/blog/topic/sap-jam), [Release Management](https://www.altaflux.com/blog/topic/release-management)

SAP SuccessFactors has delivered enhancements and updates across the SAP SuccessFactors**®** HCM Suite as part of their [**Q4 2017 product release**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alxy-YAD5Ws). Here are a few key updates you should consider for SAP Jam.

**Privacy Improvements: Exclude SuccessFactors Profile Data**

Admins can specify which SuccessFactors employee profile attributes to exclude from being populated to and searchable in SAP Jam. 

Benefits:

- Compliance with country and regional-specific privacy laws.
- Control over what profile information is relevant.

**Real-Time Updates for Forums and Content Pages**

Replies to questions that are marked as Best Answer will now appear without a page refresh. Idea status and vote counts are now reflected in real time. Content item titles, description and metadata are updated in real time.

Benefit:

- Pages no longer need to be refreshed to see an accurate status of the object.

**Gallery View for Content**

You can now view group content as gallery of thumbnails and easily switch between gallery and list.

Benefit:

- Quickly identify and work with images and documents, especially those that have similar or non-descriptive names (eg.DSC0001.jpg).

**Customizable Header**

JAM now offers fully customizable layout and functionality. Inject custom branding, menus, and dynamic content. You'll now have full access to HTML, CSS, and Javascript.

 Benefits:

- Significantly extend corporate intranet capabilities beyond standard SAP Jam.
- Consistent corporate branding.

**Web Branding Enhancements**

Provide custom font types for menu tabs and widget titles for home pages and overview pages. Specify custom font size for widget titles.

 Benefits:

- Enhanced corporate branding
- Enhanced page designs

**Custom Sub-Domain Support**

Now you can update your sub-domain to reflect your company or intranet name. For example acme.sapjam.com It's done by logging request ticket with Support.

 Benefits:

- Brand your SAP Jam tenant with a custom name
- More easily recognized by end-users, providing less opportunity for phishing attempts
- Makes it easier for administrators to test and differentiate between test and production systems.
