Editing Inventory from the Analysis Workbench

Use the following steps to edit an inventory item from the Analysis Workbench as needed.

To edit an inventory item in the Analysis Workbench, do the following:

1.

Open the Analysis Workbench for the desired project. (For instructions, see Opening the Analysis Workbench.)

2.

Navigate to the Inventory Items list in the right pane.

3.

Select the inventory item that you want to edit.

A new tab, labeled with the inventory name and showing information about the inventory item, is opened within the Inventory Details tab.

4.

Make changes to the fields as needed. Refer to Creating Inventory from the Inventory Items List for field descriptions and additional steps required when updating the inventory type.

Note the following:

•

For a Component inventory item, you can use the Component Lookup feature to select a different registered instance (or create a new one) or to create a custom component and instance to associate with the inventory item. The Name, Component, and License fields are updated accordingly. See Creating Inventory from the Inventory Items List for complete information.

•

You can convert a Work In Progress or License Only inventory item to a different inventory type, using the Type field and performing the additional steps required for the type. The Name and other appropriate fields are updated accordingly.

•

If you need to update the component version or associated license only, simply click the Edit () icon next to the Component or License value, and select a different license or version or both. (This avoids performing a Component Lookup process to edit these elements.)

•

Update any of the other fields as necessary. For a description of each field, see Inventory Details Tab in the Analysis Workbench.

5.

Click Save to change the changes to the inventory item.
