A well-modeled Fact Sheet is the foundation of every valuable insight in SAP LeanIX. Whether your goal is transparency, rationalization, reporting, or long-term governance, data quality directly determines the quality of your outcomes.This article explains what makes a Fact Sheet “good” and how to structure data for consistency, clarity, and sustainable governance from day one of onboarding.   1. Understanding the purpose of Fact Sheets  Fact sheets are not simply data-entry forms. They are structured architectural objects that describe your applications, capabilities, technologies, or other elements of your IT landscape. Their value comes from:The information they contain The relationships they form The ownership behind their maintenance The frequency and accuracy of updatesLeanIX evaluates the completeness and quality of Fact Sheets based on a set of weighted attributes, relations, ownership elements, and activity history.A good Fact Sheet is therefore both technically complete and a

I’m excited to join the LeanIX community and start engaging with fellow practitioners who are passionate about Enterprise Architecture, application transparency, and driving meaningful business transformation.I work closely with ERP modernization, SAP S/4HANA transformations, and IT landscape optimization, with a strong focus on connecting business strategy to technology execution. A big part of my work involves helping organizations gain clarity into their application portfolios, dependencies, and roadmaps which is exactly where LeanIX brings tremendous value.I’m particularly interested in:Application portfolio rationalization and lifecycle management Linking business capabilities, processes, and applications Supporting clean‑core and cloud transformation journeys Using LeanIX together with tools like SAP Signavio, Cloud ALM, and automation platforms to create an end‑to‑end transformation storylineI’m looking forward to learning from your experiences, exchanging best practices, and co

Hello,Just wondering if anyone tried mastering Application Interfaces in ServiceNow CMDB and export them to LeanIX Interface factsheets?We are planning to track out Application integrations in CMDB which would get this information from Middleware applications.Then, using cmdb_rel_ci table relationship is created between App A to App B (App1 → App2), using provided_by, used_by, depends_on, etc relationships. CMDB is used more for operational purposes - impact analysis, change/incident management, service mapping. While LeanIX should have “business view” of integration without technical details.We want to push this data to LeanIX, by creating one Interface factsheet per integration.Has anyone had this use case of getting integrations data from CMDB to LeanIX ? Thanks,Mantautas Daunys.   

​Does anyone know if @sap/vite-plugin-leanix-custom-report supports Vite 8? Or is there an ETA on support for Vite 8?

Our design philosophy is to model Business App, System, Component as follows:In LeanIX, we have imported our CMDB into the metamodel as follows:Business Apps to the Application/Business App fact sheet subtype System/Module to the Application/Microservice fact sheet subtype Component to the IT Component/Service fact sheet subtypeWhen we model designs by hand today, we map integrations at the System/Module level like this, essentially rolling up the microservice to it’s parent business app: How do I create this same type of data flow diagram in LeanIX Diagrams?  There’s no option out-of-the-box to make one app the child of another.Do I need to create a manual parent/child relationship on the Application fact sheet?  Then I should be able to “roll-up” to the parent business app?

Hi everyone,I’m trying to connect the LeanIX MCP server to a Microsoft Copilot Studio agent using the MCP onboarding wizard, following the official docs:LeanIX MCP setup: https://help.sap.com/docs/leanix/ea/connecting-to-mcp-server Copilot Studio MCP onboarding: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-copilot-studio/mcp-add-existing-server-to-agent?source=recommendationsHowever, I’m running into issues and would love to understand if anyone has successfully implemented this end-to-end with Microsoft Copilot Studio.Has anyone successfully connected LeanIX MCP to Copilot Studio and run actual tool calls in an agent conversation? What endpoint format, transport type and auth setup did you use for LeanIX?Any tips, configs, samples or pointers to working setups would be hugely appreciated 🙏

I’m unable to access our environment since about 10am EDT. Our sandbox environment appears to be working, but not production. It would be useful if there was some way of identifying when LeanIX is having issues.

Hey everyone,I’m looking for some guidance on how to properly model cost structures in LeanIX, especially when it comes to separating opex and capex while still maintaining a meaningful TCO view.According to the LeanIX documentation, all costs related to acquiring the right to use an application should be entered under License Costs — regardless of whether they are one‑time investments or recurring subscription fees. All other cost types are expected to be recorded as yearly values.This creates a challenge: Most of the costs that are aggregated (including via custom code) are annual costs, which makes them useful for identifying potential savings when rationalizing applications. However, I also want to capture a proper Total Cost of Ownership over the entire lifecycle — which should include one‑time license purchases and other upfront investments.The problem is that these one‑time costs distort the picture when the goal is to evaluate potential savings from retiring an application. A o

Hi everyone, I work for a global org active in about 80 countries. For orgs who work in a lot of countries and want to report at a global, country, regional level, how do you set up your organization fact sheets? Any ideas on the best ways to do this? Thanks!

Looking to use GraphQL to send email email to a custom field. From what I am gathering, there needs to be a webhook involved using https://<workspace>.leanix.net/automation/email. Hoping someone can help me out with this. ​

Hello everyoneI’m trying to get EOL date in lifecycle, this is because I need to validate if the lifecycle date is still active or has already expired. In case it has ended, I need to change the risk status value to unacceptable, with a calculable field. The issue is that when I try to do that, it shows me this error. Could someone help me?this picture is the base field to get the date, to validate against todayThis is the issue:  

Hi, Does LeanIX have a concept of a guest or unregistered user?  Specifically, can I create a Portal that is accessible to unenrolled individuals?I have read about transient users that are registered in real-time.  Right now, that appears to be the closest solution.Thoughts?

For the recent KPI update, I am unable to use a plus “+” symbol on my filter. It is visible on old KPI’s in the filters under “Edit KPI” as below. Therefore, with the new approach I can’t recreate many KPI created before the change (as recommended).Any tips?

I'm looking to automate the management of applications nearing their End of Life (EOL) in LeanIX. I need to set up an automation that notifies the EA team, exports all data for these applications, and then effectively "archives" them within LeanIX. Any advice on the best approach, including webhook implementation for data export and suitable storage solutions?
