Creating a Technology
HOPEX IT Portfolio Management produces a navigation tree for technologies, accessible in the IT Portfolio Management navigation pane of the ITPM desktop. The navigation tree displays the list of technologies and classes according to different criteria:
• All technologies of the repository
• Technologies outside portfolio (those not belonging to any inventory portfolio)
• Technologies of the connected user portfolio
To create a technology:
1. On the desktop, click the navigation menu then IT Portfolio Management.
2. In the edit area, click Technologies.
In the drop-down list select All Technologies.
3. Click the New button.
4. In the dialog box that appears, indicate:
• its name
• the vendor
5. Click OK.
When a technology is created in HOPEX IT Portfolio Management, a workflow is automatically started and a validation request sent to the Chief Technology Officer, who defines the Company Standard. See Validating a Technology.
