Indicate the relevance of architecture elements

An architecture element is relevant to an IT system as soon as an IT component from the architecture element is assigned to the IT system. If this property hasn't been specified yet for an element, the element can still be relevant. Therefore, you can mark irrelevant elements so that they can be deleted.

You can change or delete specified attribute values and add new entries. Names cannot be changed. Ensure that all mandatory fields Linked Icon Template_bp_it_inventory are specified: For more information, move the mouse pointer over the Help icons Help in the dialogs.

Prerequisite

You are authorized to make changes.

Procedure

  1. Click an architecture element in the navigation tree.
  2. Click Mark as irrelevant in the row of the corresponding item. You can remove this mark before the change has been approved.
  3. Click Save.

The mark is displayed. The system manager finds the change in the Approve changes box, and must either approve or decline it. After changes are approved, they are visible to all authorized users. Thus, all irrelevant components are deleted.
