Application portfolio reports
HOPEX IT Portfolio Management provides predefined report templates that are used to analyze the applications of your repository from different angles.
Application and Application System Embedded Reports
The reports available for an application or an application system are:
• Application / Application System Standard Cost: presents the detailed costs of an application or an application system. See Analyzing Application Costs.
• Gantt Chart and Gantt Chart with Conflicts: displays the lifeline of the application / the application system and any conflicts in its deployments. See Analyzing Application Life Cycle and Installations.
• Environment Graph: provides a graphical view of the environment of the application / application system in terms of data flow, deployments, functional scope. See Application Environment Graph of an application.
• Application Overview: presents a summary of the information specified for the application or application system.
• Application Impact : allows you to visualize the scope of the data used and to measure the impact of application deletions on the data they use. See Analyzing the Impact of an Application on the Data Used.
Reports Applicable to a Set of Applications
Instant reports
Instant reports offer a statistical graphic analysis of the data. You can generate instant reports on a selection of applications in order to view certain data graphically (for example, their exchanges) or to compare the applications for specific characteristics (for example, costs).
To launch an instant report on a set of applications:
1. Click the navigation menu then IT Portfolio Management.
2. In the edit area, click the Applications tile.
3. Select the applications in question.
4. Click theInstant Report button.
5. Select the type of report to create and then, if necessary, the application data to be analyzed.
For example, to display a histogram of application costs, select a "Quantitative" type report then select the "Cost" attribute.

Dashboard reports
The dashboard provides different reports that analyze automatically all the applications of the repository or the applications that you own:
• Application by state: displays the distribution of applications by state
• Application by state for the application owner (AO)
• Applications and deployments by owner
• Reports on application completeness; a set of reports identifies potential gaps in application specification:
• cost completeness: number of applications for which the cost is determined
• deployment completeness: number of applications deployed
• Assessment completeness: number of applications assessed
• lifecycle completeness: number of applications with a lifecycle
• technology completeness: number of applications associated with a technology
• Application by age: displays the distribution of applications by age
• Time model by application (Bubbles): this report uses a TIME (Tolerate, Invest, Migrate and Eliminate) model to analyze the business value of applications in a portfolio.
To generate a report in your dashboard:
1. Click the navigation menu then click Dashboard.
2. Click + to add a report.
3. Expand the IT Portfolio Management folder, then the Dashboard sub-folder.
4. Select the report concerned.
The report appears in your dashboard.
