Managing applications

Applications build the core of the Application Governance Module.

Users require certain entitlements to be able use applications. The Application Governance Module helps you to quickly and simply acquire entitlements for making requests in the Web Portal or the IT Shop. This enables users (for example, in the Web Portal) to see immediately which products they can request in order to use the application.

To do this you create an application, assign the relevant shop and the application entitlements to it and then publish the application (see Quick start - onboarding applications). By publishing an application, service items for the assigned application entitlements are created in a corresponding service category and can be requested from then on. Once an application is published, you can assign it additional application entitlements and publish those as well.

NOTE: When publishing, you are free to decide whether you want to publish the application or application entitlements immediately or at a later time.

In addition, you can cancel publication of an application and all assigned or individual application entitlements at any time so that they can no longer be requested.

Publishing status of applications

Applications can have different publishing statuses. Whether an application entitlement can be requested in the Web Portal depends on the status of the application entitlement and the application to which it is assigned.

TIP: Generally applies: An application entitlement can be requested as soon as it itself and the application it is assigned to have the Publish status.

The following table gives an overview of the different publishing statuses that applications, application entitlements, and their dependencies can have. This information will help you when you want to publish applications, application entitlement or make them requestable in the Web Portal.
