Creating a Technology

HOPEX IT Portfolio Management produces a navigation tree for technologies, accessible in the Technologies 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

• Etc.

To create a technology:

1. In the desktop click the navigation menu then Technologies.

2. In the edit area, 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.
