Viva Engage Topics

Hi all, 

The org I work for is looking into creating a Values in Action employee recognition program in Viva Engage.

From searching I have not been able to find clear answers on our requirements. 

The requirements are:

One dedicated Viva Engage community

Recognition-only posts (no general discussion)

5 organizational values

Users must select one value when recognizing a colleague

We would prefer to use Praise posts

Reporting 

Can Viva Engage be configured to:

Restrict users to only 5 approved Topics?

Prevent users from creating additional Topics?

Require a Topic/Value to be selected before posting?

Require or default to Praise posts?

If not natively supported, what governance or configuration approach is recommended?
