    About this task

    Important:

    Technology Lifecycle Management (TLM) was previously known as Technology Portfolio Management (TPM). TPM and TLM refer to the same feature. Table names and scheduled job names continue to use TPM and haven't been renamed.

    Whether your instance displays TPM or TLM also depends on your application versions. TLM labels appear only when both the Enterprise Architecture Workspace application (version 9.2.1 or later) and the Technology Lifecycle Management plugin, sn_apm_tpm (version 1.11.0 or later), are installed. If either application is on an earlier version, the interface continues to show TPM.

    You can acknowledge a heuristic lifecycle match of a product by changing its status to verified or rejected.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to Workspaces > Enterprise Architecture Workspace.
    2. Open the Technology Portfolio page by selecting the Technology Portfolio icon Technology portfolio icon.
    3. Select Technology Portfolio Audit tab.
    4. Open a product type (Software or Hardware) by selecting it.
    5. In the TLM Technology Lifecycle Exception form, set the Verification Status to either Verified or Rejected.
      If the lifecycle phase is set to Verified, then the exception count is reduced in the Technology Lifecycle table. If the lifecycle phase is set to Rejected, then the exception count is reduced and dates for that lifecycle phase will not appear in the Technology Lifecycle table.
    6. Optional: Add comments in the Comments box.
    7. Select Save.
