Generating a Web Site
It is possible to create and generate a Web site without the HOPEX Studio technical module. To do this you must base it on a Web site template supplied as standard or one that you have created specially.
Creating a Web site from a Web site template
To create a Web site from a Web site template:
1. In the MEGA workspace, select the Documentation window.
*To access the Documentation page from the workspace, click View > Navigation Windows > Documentation.
2. In the tree, right-click the Web Sites folder and select New > Web Site.
The Create Web Site page appears.
 
3. Enter the Name of the Web site.
E.g.: "Site 1".
4. By default, the Web site is generated in the <environment path>\Intranet folder. To chose another folder, click . It is recommended that you create a sub-folder for each Web site generated, for example by creating folders with the same name as your Web site under the "Intranet" folder.
*The content of the "Intranet" folder is deleted at each generation. This being so, when you have obtained a satisfactory site you want to keep, remember to copy it to an appropriate folder.
5. In the From Site Web Template field, use the drop-down menu to select a Web site template.
Example: "Enterprise Portal".
6. Click Finish.
The new Web site (e.g.: "Site 1") is listed in the Web Sites folder.
*The "Enterprise Portal (Example)" Web site template generates the entire repository, which takes some time. You can restrict the range of objects to be generated by choosing to generate only a project.
7. Right-click the new Web site and select Properties.
8. In the Web site properties window, select the Objects tab.
9. To restrict the range of objects to be generated, click the object type and then click Delete.
10. To add an object to the range of objects to be generated, click Add and select An object.
11. In the Add an Object page, select the object Type (e.g.: "Project").
12. In the Name field, select the object (e.g.: "Customer Loyalty Program") and click OK.
The object appears in the list.
13. Close the Web site properties window.
Generating the Web site
To generate the Web site:
*From the Documentation window, right-click the Web site and select Generate.
Dialog boxes appear, indicating the progress of site generation.
When the Web site has been generated, a dialog box proposes opening the site. You then obtain a site in which you can view business processes, organizational processes, org-units and business functions of the project.
*Alternatively, to consult the generated Web site, right-click the site name and select Open.
