Business application relationship with CIs for application information
You can create relationships between the business application and other CIs. To get reports about a business application, there must be an association between the application and the CIs that make up the application.
Business applications have to be integrated with the other CIs to examine the CI and its relationship from a CI relation formatter.
CMDB dependency views
Dependency view graphically displays an infrastructure view for a configuration item (CI) and the business application or business services that it is part of and that it supports.
In Enterprise Architecture, you can see the dependency views by clicking the show dependency views icon () in the related items of the Business Application form.
In addition to the existing Enterprise Architecture specific configuration items based on references versus relationships, a relationship is established between the Business Capability configuration item and the Business Application configuration item.
To view the mapping of the related items, navigate to . The table provides a list of configuration items that are related to each other by a referenced related field, because of which the dependency view is rendered.
