Getting Started

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?  

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

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

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 As a result, their access to the corresponding factsheets was revoked.

I'm confused about the relationship between Application Lifecycle and Business Capability dates in LeanIX.When I fill out an Application fact sheet, I can already specify the Lifecycle status (Plan, Phase In, Active, Phase Out, End of Life). However, when I map that same application to a Business Capability, the system asks me to enter 'Active From' and 'Active Until' dates again.For example, if a customer uses SAP and has already filled in the Application Lifecycle, why do I need to specify these dates again at the Business Capability level? What's the purpose of having both, and what's the difference between them? The distinction isn't clear to me 

How on earth do you get the interfaces map to work?It is frustrating me to high heavens, and I am ready to cal it quits with the entire LeanIX MESS. I have active interfaces. I have Active provider applications. I have Active Consume Interfaces.Why on earth is there still a message about missing data?What is this Circle Map report looking at in order for it to include “inventory”.Whilst on the topic, shouldn’t it give a more descriptive set of data, or a “true” create from scratch reporting tool to get at least operational data out of the application? Help, please. 

How to model Power Apps applications in LeanIX as they are huge in number and might consume license numbers but these applications are used locally which supports single capabilities?

Hi everyone,We’re preparing to import preliminary application data into LeanIX using Excel, but currently don’t have any External App IDs assigned to the applications.Looking for best practices or recommended formats that have worked well for generating unique, consistent, and persistent External App IDs—especially during the initial import phase.Any suggestions or examples from your experience would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance!

Hello Everyone, I am quite new on LeanIX and I have some basic questions particularly Technology Architecture. I would like to create a Tehcnology Application/Solutions Buildng Blocks, ABB-SBB catalogue on LeanIX, but there is no ready excel file for that. Where should I start?In addition, I need to create Roadmap report for each and every SBB.Could lifecycle information be enough for IT components, but what about for physical data centres or cloud subscriptions? Should I also create them as IT components with their contract lifetimes? 

Hi all, Trying to filter for all interfaces for a specific application as a provider “OR” as a consumer. This option is not available in the filter. Thank you.Best Regards, Hugo Gomes  

Hi, we would like to set some automation to inform users about a Fact sheet is long time in broken seal status. How to get this information? Is this possible at all, maybe with graphql query?In addition would be nice to have a dashboard to make this information visible (which factsheet is since when in QS broken for example)thx for all the advice!

Hello everyone.Is there anywhere I can see the factsheets’ attributes and relationships between them? I want to check the as-is-state of the whole platform, either as a logical or conceptual diagrams of them (like the image shown) Thanks in advance, community Example of conceptual diagram

Hello to Everyone!I am new to this group, please redirect me to older post if this question has been answered in the past. I am basically trying to consolidate the business capabilities in my SAP LeanIX instance from non-standard capabilities (~380 of them) to standard. Is there a best/smarter way to do it?Thanks!RegardsSouvik 

Hola comunidad LeanIX. Existe una metodologia a seguir en la implementación o rollout de LeanIX?De antemano gracias por sus respuestas.Saludos,Carolina González

Hello,I have noticed that quite often in some domains a unique person can be the technical/it owner of multiple applications.This leads to that person not being able to properly update information in LeanIX or answer Surveys.Has anyone ever tried to handle this type of situations?Is there any framework or best practice that suggests a governing model for this?Because sometimes this could mean that there are actions that should be taken to avoid single points of failure.Thanks.

I have an application (App1) that is used in multiple regions. The application is linked to two business capabilities (BC1 and BC2). In LeanIX, the Functional Fit is defined on the Application ↔ Business Capability relation.My challenge is: The deployment is the same application instance across all regions. But Functional Fit is different per region (due to local laws/compliance differences). LeanIX allows me to assign the same capability only once to the application. Because “Region” on the relation is a multi-select, I cannot create a second entry of the same capability with a different Functional Fit. Example:Application Capability Region Functional Fit App1 BC1 NA Perfect

Hello Everyone! Recently, I have been working with a few customers that are currently working on integrating their IT landscape with another organization’s due to recent M&A activity. It’s no secret that M&A is extremely common for companies worldwide and has been growing in popularity since 2020. We also know M&A poses particular challenges for Enterprise Architects. With this in mind, I’d like to foster a conversation all about M&A and how LeanIX has helped you. Please include as many details as you are willing to provide!Some questions to get the conversation moving: If you were starting from scratch, looking back, what would be the first thing you’d do using LeanIX to support M&A? How has LeanIX changed your approach to M&A or alignment of IT systems? Do you have any proprietary frameworks/systems you like to use or created specifically to support your

Hi All We have the following subtypes in Organization factsheet:division business unit (child of division) legal entity region country (child of region) location (child of country)So basically 3 main categories (division, legal entity and geography).I am facing 2 issues, anyone have experience or proposal for that? I don’t want to create another factsheet type just because I’m missing a subtype filter...is there a solution I don’t see?Creating dashboards - I can’t select a subtype in a report builder, so I can’t get a nr of apps per division since I get a flatlist of everything. Creating surveys - I can’t send out a survey for App Managers to connect their apps to a country, because they have again a flatlist of everything mixed - very confusing for enduser to see a division, legal entity and country mixed and sorted by alphabet

Hi folks, Just curious as to whether anyone is currently including information on sub-processors for Applications/Vendors in LeanIX based on application reviews etc. If so, have you found value in doing so and what have you found to be the most manageable way to reference these so that they are reportable/searchable if required? Thanks Anthony.

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!
