Is it possible to have more than one instance of an asset?

#1

Hello,

my enterprise manages the software for our customers.

For example we deploy the software "xyz". "xyz" has many modules. Some customers have access to specific modules. Others don't.

How can I model this issue in CMDBuild?

I don't want to have "xyz_Customer1" with modules x and y enabled and "xyz_Customer2" with module z enabled, but I want a structure that only has the software "xyz" and for every customer I can define which module he has access to.

I would be very happy about a solution for my problem.

 

Kind regards,

Tim

You can create the "classes" (entities) "Customer", "Application" and "ApplicationModule".

Then you can create a "domain" (type of relationship) with cardinality 1: N between "Application" and "ApplicationModule", and a "domain" N: M between "Customer" and "ApplicationModule".
Then you can extend the model as you like, perhaps even setting up a Realease Management process that automates some of those steps.
