We have been working on modeling our Salesforce org into LeanIX differently than we originally implemented.  We have looked at the help files - Salesforce Applications Modeling Best Practices | SAP Help Portal   I was curious how people typically account for managed packages, especially when it is an application we already own.  For example... We have Five9 as its own app and we also have the Five9 CTI connector installed as a managed package in Salesforce.  In several cases we are paying for the connector so I am also curious how people track cost.

Following on from the Customer Success Office Hours presentation by LeanIX yesterday, a few people were interested in the way we track Governance (Framework / Assessment & Policy compliance) Here are some extracts from one of our documented Process pages:       On the Application / IT Component Factsheet:   We have several use cases for this compliance.  One being to track the Generative AI compliance.  Another use case is indicating to Procurement that they can go ahead and engage with a provider to acquire software (EA assessment approved etc).  We also use it to track what applications have undergone DPIA and Security reviews for Confidential data etc.For those interested in creating this new Factsheet - we have a fully documented instructions on how to do this (we document all production changes in detail), and I can provide a PDF of those instructions (The post does not allow me to include attachments)I hope the community find this useful and adapts it for their individual nee

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?

Hello friendsWhat is the best way to map banks in an Application architecture in LeanIX? Which factsheet is the most appropriate one keeping in mind that there will be interfaces to these banks?Regards, Akash

I have two questions about the new Self-Service SSO setup and migration. I have read the migration guide and watched the provided step-by-step video, but I find two items still not clear: Can the same IdP connection be used for multiple workspaces (e.g. production and sandbox)? The instructions only talk about "To add a new IdP” but never talk about any ability to re-use an existing connection that is in use for another workspace. Is that possible? If it is possible to use/share the same IdP connection across workspaces, then does LeanIX still recommend using different IdPs for production and sandbox (with two different Entra applications, one for prod and one for sandbox)?

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!

Hi Community! My name is Andrés. I'm working as a Senior Solution Architect for Movistar ArgentinaWe're taking our first steps toward implementing SAP Leanix. I'm very happy to join the community to share knowledge and experiences.I'm currently taking the Leanix training courses at https://learning.sap.com/ and I'm having a problem: I can't connect to the Demo workspace using the username certification@leanix.net (wrong user/pass). Any help would be greatly appreciated.Best Regards

How to grant access to a user whose email is in a different @ domain from the company's domain, after setting up SSO. Thank you, Vivian

Contact me if your company in Greater China want to get support for LeanIX.

In the documentation for automation best practices are some examples where the workspace is hardcoded - this means when cloning from prod to sandbox (or vice versa) those references have to be updated.Is there a way to do this via 'some global variable' or else?Would you be so kind to share an idea…Best regards,Gotthard 

Is anyone tinkering with the MCP server? It seems to be missing fairly basic functionality like retrieving all the fact sheets of a given type. It has an action to get all applications, or to search for fact sheets of a given type, but the search doesn’t support a wildcard, so there appears to be no way to get a list of fact sheets of a given type. Has anyone run into this?Thanks -Dan

Uno de los conceptos que suele generar más dudas en LeanIX es el de Platform.🤔 ¿Qué entendemos por Platform exactamente?¿Un sistema operativo como Windows o Linux? ¿Un servicio de base de datos en la nube como AWS RDS? ¿Una suite de productos como Salesforce o SAP?En mi experiencia, hay un poco de confusión sobre cómo usar esta entidad y cómo diferenciarla de Applications o IT Components.👉 Me interesa mucho saber cómo lo modeláis vosotros:¿Qué criterios utilizáis para decidir qué entra como Platform? ¿Qué beneficios habéis encontrado en modelarlo bien? ¿Os ha ayudado a sacar más valor en reporting o racionalización?Creo que este tema puede ayudarnos a estandarizar prácticas y aprovechar mejor la potencia del metamodelo. 💡

¿Desde qué país o ciudad te unes a este grupo?¿Y en qué tipo de organización trabajas (empresa privada, consultora, administración pública…)?Cuéntanos brevemente si ya usas LeanIX, en qué estás trabajando actualmente o qué te gustaría aprender.¡No hace falta escribir mucho! Solo queremos empezar a conocernos y saber quién está al otro lado 😊Yo ya he dejado mi presentación en los comentarios. ¿Te animas tú también?

We are seeing a recurring data quality challenge in LeanIX and wanted to learn how other organizations are addressing it.In our setup, application fact sheets are filled by Application Technical Owners and reviewed/approved by Business Owners. While most users complete the fields, many are not familiar with EA terminology and sometimes enter conflicting values in related fields.A common example is: TIME = Eliminate 6R = Retain We’ve identified a few possible approaches and would like to understand what works best in practice: Automation / Rules-based warnings Using LeanIX automations with defined rulesets to warn users (or block approval) when conflicting combinations are selected. User education Creating and circulating cheat sheets, tooltips, or guidance documents explaining how related fields (TIME, 6R, Business Criticality, etc.) should be aligned. Approval-based governance Relying on Business Owner review and quality seal approval to catch and correct inconsistencies. Questi

Hi,I have a question regarding the ServiceNow–LeanIX integration. I’m trying to understand how to synchronize specific fields from ServiceNow into LeanIX.Our current source of truth is LeanIX, and the out-of-the-box integration performs a one-way synchronization from LeanIX to ServiceNow. However, we have a use case where the Accountable Manager is updated in ServiceNow and needs to be reflected back in LeanIX.Do you have any advice or recommendations on how to implement this? Also, do you know whether the out-of-the-box integration supports bi-directional synchronization for the same field?Regards,

Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well.I'd like to ask for your guidance on two specific use cases in LeanIX:Cost Visualization: Is it possible to generate pie charts or bar graphs that show the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of applications? We only find sums of quantity, but not much configuration. And we'd like to group by specific tags for example. Is it possible? We've already have the TCO Extention  Version Management: What's the best practice for seeing evolutionary improvements in an application while maintaining its history? My goal is to track the evolution without having to create multiple new Fact Sheets for each version, thus avoiding unnecessary duplicates in the inventory.Thank you very much in advance for your recommendations!

Hello LeanIX Community, I’m working on a setup where I need to use parent/child relationships inside Application Fact Sheets to run some calculations and to control the visibility of other fields based on whether a parent exists.I think I’ve hit a fundamental limitation in LeanIX and I’m looking for advice or best practices to handle it.Bit of context I have Calculated Fields that depend on whether a Fact Sheet has a parent. I also need to show or hide certain fields based on this logic. So basically the UI depends on the calculated value, and the calculated value depends on the presence of a relation.IssueLeanIX does not evaluate calculated fields:when a Fact Sheet is first created, when the page is opened, or immediately after adding/removing a relation.They only update after a browser refresh. This creates two problems:At creation time, calculated fields are always Blank, even if the logic should return “No parent”. After adding a parent relation, calculated fields do not update rig

Bonjour,Ce message pour vous informer qu’un groupe d’échange entre clients français LeanIX a été créé il y a quelques mois (initiative indépendante des équipes SAP).En termes de format, c’est assez simple : 1 h sur Teams tous les 4 à 6 semaines environ. Nous essayons de définir l’agenda d’une session à l’autre.Si vous souhaitez en faire partie, envoyez-moi un message en privé avec votre adresse e-mail. 

Users who were previously assigned to specific access entities in LeanIX had these entities removed from their accounts. As a result, their access to the corresponding factsheets was revoked.

We have set up the Business Owner subscription to be required when creating a new application fact sheet but I want it to be optional and no longer required. Only the Application Owner should be required. When I go to change this, the "Mandatory" check box is greyed out and it says "This can only be changed in self-configuration". How do I change this so it's no longer required when creating a new fact sheet?
