Application Rationalization

Application question: We are in the proces of analyzing our custom applications.Some are developed in python, others in Java, VBA, .NET or C#.How would you register the code base in such a way that you can report about all bespoke applications that are written in an obsolete language (VBA, .Net but also Kobol) come to mind.Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Activation Issues with LeanIX Email Notifications via Mailjet

Hi LeanIX Community,We’re experiencing activation issues with one of our LeanIX clients due to their security system blocking LeanIX-related emails (e.g., workspace invites, password reset notifications).LeanIX Support informed us that these emails are sent via the Mailjet system, which uses the domain *.mailjet.com (e.g., bnc3.mailjet.com). While the IP address (hidden) is exclusive to SAP LeanIX, Mailjet’s use of multiple subdomains for email delivery complicates matters.The suggested solutions include:Configuring the client’s firewall or DLP to allow emails from the specific IP and *@mailjet.com. Setting up a custom SMTP server (https://docs-eam.leanix.net/docs/notifications-center#setting-up-a-custom-smtp-server-for-email-delivery).However, our client is highly security-conscious and reluctant to open their firewall for the *@mailjet.com domain due to its association with spam.Have other LeanIX users encountered similar challenges? If so, how have you managed to resolve them withou

TIME vs 6R : When to use what ?

Hello Experts, Need your help in understanding the usage of TIME and 6R methodologies.At most places it mentions 6R is more towards the applications - focused to move on Cloud (no wonder it was proposed by AWS) however, when it comes to APM for an enterprise what should be the ideal way of choosing the right method of Application assessment? Should it be just TIME or combination of both.Any experience around this topic will be helpful. Thanks,Santosh

Data Flow diagrams in combination with Processes

Hi All, Is there a quick way to visualize how data is related to certain business processes?Here’s what I did:I’ve created a Subtype of DataObject Fact sheet, called Business Object.This Business Object (Governance Structure in my case) is created in Process A, and then transferred to Process B, C and D. Thoses processes in turn use this Business Object as input for other business objects but also deliver feedback on that business object to Process A in some cases through several work procedures (Signavio).I am lost on how to create a Data Flow Diagram, as it only is possible to link data to applications from the Data Flow diagrams. How would y’all tackle this issue?

How can we model Websites in LeanIX?

We believe creating these components as an application would be the most effective approach. However, given our current situation, we’re exploring alternative solutions. Managing over 60+ websites makes it challenging to continuously request licenses for adding more applications. What would be the best way to handle this scenario efficiently? Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Conceptual Difference between Business Contexts and Business Capabilities

I am starting doing some use cases to study, and I am a little confused on when I can use Business Context or Business Capabilities… Is there any way to differentiate them? Is there any naming convention suggested for each of them?

Integrate Architecture Principles into EAM

Hi all, My team and I are looking for possibilities to integrate our architecture principles into LeanIX. Are there any community members with experiences on succesfully doing so? As of now we've communicated our architecture principles through Sharepoint, but we'd like to have LeanIX as our main source for all Enterprise Architecture related subjects. Right now we're considering to use the Dashboard in order to state the principles, accompanied by a corresponding report. Hereby an example: A text column showing a cloud first principle with a statement that 'SaaS before PaaS, before IaaS' etc., accompanied by a report showing the current status (how much SaaS, on-premise, etc). See screenshot.Any further ideas or experiences on showcasing architecture principles within LeanIX?

IT Risk log

How do you keep and maintain a risk log?I know we can detect the risks in Leanix but i also have the need to create a risk log assess the risk : give a non technical explanation/impact/scoring of the risk reporting on the risk. I was thinking of creating a separate fact sheet but is this a good idea? I also know there are plenty of risk management tools but is there anyone using one that can integrate with Leanix? Please share your thoughts/experiences. Thanks!

How can you edit the multiplicity of interface relationships

Hi All, We have a couple of challenges, one of them being that an interface can be both a provider as wel as a consumer at the same time. this is how that works:An application provides a dataset through an interface, this is consumed by another application. That data set is edited in the second application and provided back to application one who then consumes it. At certain points in time that interface also communicates the dataset directly to another interface.Any advice on how to model that would be greatly appreciated. My preferred solution would be to change the multiplicity from Manty to one to Many to Many relationships on provider as well as Consumer interfaces by the way.

Archived FactSheets

Hi y’all, I’m trying to figure out how the trash bin field works for archived factsheets. It seems like the archived factsheets are removed from the trash bin after some days, so just wondering what is the most efficient way of creating a tracking system for these factsheets?My initial idea is to take out exports of archived factsheets in a table view and manually append the data regularly in a locally stored file. Can this be automated and perhaps even be visualised on a LeanIX dashboard instead?Thanks in advance for any suggestions! :)

Architecture Review Board

We have a fairly well-established ARB process but face challenges with proper documentation. We aim to effectively track approvals, rejections, and the associated decision rationale.We previously explored Confluence for this purpose but encountered difficulties. We hoped to leverage LeanIX for this task, given our intention to utilize its full capabilities for tracking all aspects of approved applications.However, we are hesitant to invest in full application license cost solely for tracking rejections and their brief justifications.Has anyone used LeanIX in a similar way?

Looking for backers for new presentation features

Hi All, I have been looking into the presentation option in LeanIX, but found it severely lacking. Especially the lack of design customizations makes the presentation feature useless when presenting to C-level management, who tend to go for “pretty pictures” and not facts.I’ve submitted an idea, but am now looking to mobilize people to log a similar or same idea to gain some traction within the LeanIX development team.In the meantime, has anyone been able to embed LeanIX directly into a Powerpoint, or is embedding a PowerBI custom report the best option?

LeanIX Academy Video content

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.

Bulk Recover?

Hello,I’ve found examples in the LeanIX documentation about doing bulk import/export/archive, but does anyone know if it’s possible to do a simple bulk recover/un-archive through excel without using a script with individual API calls?We had about 190 entries archived due to a strict sync configuration, but need them brought back to active now.Thanks,James
