Building Application Assets
HOPEX IT Portfolio Management offers the possibility of describing simple applications or more complex applications via the use of application systems.
Applications and application systems of the organization can be created by the Administrator, Application Portfolio Manager or Application Owner.
Creating an application
To inventory applications, HOPEX IT Portfolio Management provides a navigation tree.
Depending on whether you are an application owner or an application portfolio manager, you can access applications from the Home page or Inventory navigation pane of the ITPM desktop.
The navigation pane classifies the applications according to the following criteria:
• All applications of the repository
• Applications without owner
• Applications outside portfolio (those not belonging to any inventory portfolio)
• Applications of the connected user portfolio
This display corresponds to the "List" view. A hierarchical view of the
Inventory tab is also available.
To create an application:
1. In the Inventory navigation tree, click All Applications.
The list of applications appears in the edit area.
2. Click the New button.
3. In the dialog box that appears, indicate:
• its name
• its life cycle
• begin and end dates
4. Click Next if you also want to define the different characteristics of the application. If not, click OK.
The user that created an application becomes its manager.
