By Business Application view

The By Business Application view displays all the software models and hardware models that are tied to the application services of a business application.

If CSDM v4.0 is implemented, the By Business Application view displays the Business Applications > SDLC Components > Application Services > Hardware Models, and Software Models or the technology structure in a succession. If CSDM v4.0 is not implemented, the By Business Application view displays the Business Applications > Application Services > Software Models, and Hardware Models or the technology structure in a succession. You can also view the applications by their manufacturers (for example, Oracle, SAP).

In the By Business Application view, you can do the following:

• Use the business application risk filter to filter the business applications based on their risk factor. By default, the timeline view displays business applications with production instances that are of High Risk. Select Show All Risks option to display business applications with all types of risks (high, medium, low, and not assessed). You can also filter business applications that have not been assessed. Based on the filtered criteria, you can view most or all business applications in the Application column.
• Use the filter icon () to search and filter applications using any attribute that is present in the business application table. Use the condition builder in the Set Business Application filter dialog box to define the filter. You can set as many conditions that you may require to filter the records appropriately using the New Criteria button. If you log in again with the same user credentials, your filter preferences are saved for future, unless you edit or clear the filter conditions.
• Add a new demand or project to the business application. Point to the business application and click the add new project or demand icon () that appears next to the application name. The demand or the project form has the name of the business application populated in the Business Applications field for which you are creating the demand or project.
  Note:

  You can add a project to the business application only when you activate PPM Standard (com.snc.financial_planning_pmo) plugin.
