Dear CommunityWhen requesting SAP for a copy from your production workspace to the sandbox workspace, which (technical/integration) components should be excluded in the copy request to avoid problems with productive interfaces (e.g. Jira and other supplying thirdparty systems). In other words, which Leanix integration components related to the interfaces of the productive workspace should be excluded from the copy requestKind Regards,Maarten

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

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 pr

Hello Team,We are mapping Business capabilities in Lean IX and we are doing our best to keep it to Standard.As part of that i am not able to find appropriate Business capability for Inter and Intra company or for an Internal Procurement.Also i am not fully getting how to define Application, System and System Component.

Greetings,We are expanding LeanIX tool usage internally and will be onboarding new members (solution, technical architects, etc.)As part of the pre-requisites, we will ask each one to complete let’s say… at least Level 1 certifications to understand the basics of the tool, metamodel, factsheets, etc.Is there a way for us to track, how many have successfully completed the certifications, levels, etc.? Thanks,Satish.

As far I could find in LeanIX documentation, LeanIX supports searches by fact sheet name, display name, description, tags, and sometimes alias.It seems that enabling other textual fields to be designated as searchable could provide significant value. Is this being considered as a future capability?In the meantime, are there any workarounds that could offer similar functionality?

Hi Community,I wanted to ask how you in your modeling asess / score the criticality of systems that are only periodically critical, such as for payroll or financial closing capabilities.Best regards,Thomas

Dear Community,I’m looking for a quick help. I’m unable to reset my password for the demo workspace provided. I’ve tried resetting the password but I’m not getting any email for password reset.Kindly note that I’m able to login into the actual tool and able to launch Academy from there.I’m also unable to update my email id in the academy profile. I am giving the same password which I logged in into the tool, but that isn’t working.

I would like to have my organization’s landscape represented in LeanIX. The hierarchy exceeds level 6, which is the maximum I can configure in the Meta Model. Is there a way to extend the hierarchy levels? Thank you in advance.

Scenario:An organisation has four business divisions.Business capability maturity differs across business divisions (I.e. Data Management is “Ad Hoc” in Division 1, “Defined” in Divisions 2 & 3, and “Managed” in Division 4. Question:Where in the factsheet for Data Management should those maturity scores be captured? Is it under Organisation and the Business Unit Maturity field? 

Hi LeanIX Community,I'm trying to implement a cost allocation model using custom fields and calculations, but I’ve run into an issue. Scenario:I’ve created a custom field (Application Cost) on the Application Fact Sheet (type: Double, displayed as Cost), and I also have a field (Number of Users) on the Application–Organization relation. The idea is to calculate the proportional cost per organization, based on how many users are using the application within each connected organization. Example:Application cost: €50,000/yearOrg A: 700 usersOrg B: 5 usersOrg C: 300 users→ Total = 1005 users I want to calculate a new value (e.g. Chargeback) on the Application–Organization relation as:(application cost / total number of users) × users per orgIssue:I created a new Double field on the Application–Organization relation to store the Chargeback value, but when I try to

Would someone please refresh my memory on how to access my Demo Workspace for the sake of taking the Practitioner courses?

Calculations allow you to populate fact sheet fields based on values from other fields. You can set up your calculation logic from scratch, or start with a template and adjust it to your needs. Check out this how-to video showing the feature in action:You can find more information including further coding examples in our documentation.

What is the best practice for naming interfaces? I’m new to using interfaces in LeanIX and how they are used in diagrams. Could you please recommend some best practices? For example, the ones that your company uses.In the Interface Modeling Guidelines, the only recommendation mentioned is:“Define self-explaining naming conventions. Establish clear conventions within the organization to determine ownership and change management responsibilities for Interfaces, promoting consistent modeling practices (e.g., Provider, Publisher/Subscriber)”I also found that in the documentation, they name it “App1 to App2”. However, I find it not suitable if the interface is bi-directional.I would appreciate some practical examples. Thank you.

Hi everyone, I was able to add my company branding to LeanIX, but it was tricky. I was wondering if anyone had any relatable experience on setting up company branding in LeanIX, and had any tips to share? Thanks

I am currently learning various courses through LeanIX Academy. However, I noticed that there is no transcript available for the video courses. I kindly request that you upload the transcripts or provide access to them, as they would greatly enhance the learning experience and assist with better understanding of the course material.
