Searching the Catalog by Lifecycle Model

You can search for assets on the basis of lifecycle models and states.

Note:
This functionality is available when the lifecycle model itself is in the Productive or Retired state.

To search for an asset by lifecycle model

1. In CentraSite Business UI, access the Advanced Search panel in one of the following ways:

Click the Browse link in the upper-left corner of the menu bar.

Click the Search icon next to the Scope list. The default search scope is Assets.

This displays a list of assets in the Search Results page.

2. In the Additional Search Criteria list, select Lifecycle Models. Do one of the following:

Type in a keyword in the Lifecycle Model text box.

To add the specified keyword to the Search Recipe, click the plus symbol next to the text box, or press Enter. CentraSite displays the list of assets that match the specified keyword.

To add additional keywords to the Search Recipe, repeat the above steps.

To delete the keywords that were previously added to the Search Recipe, click the Remove button next to the keyword.

Note that if you simply leave this text box blank, CentraSite executes the search using the default scope Assets.

To search for assets applied to a specific lifecycle model, click Choose. This opens the Choose Lifecycle Models dialog box.

This dialog box displays a list of the predefined and user-defined lifecycle models and states that are currently defined in CentraSite.

1. In the Choose Lifecycle Models dialog box, follow these steps:

a. Click the expand chevron of a lifecycle model to display all of the defined states of that particular taxonomy.

b. Select one or more lifecycle models and lifecycle states, and then click OK.

CentraSite displays the list of assets that match the specified lifecycle model(s) in the Search Results page.
