Use the Admin Center in Digital Portfolio Management
The Admin Center in Digital Portfolio Management (DPM) provides administrators a guided walk-through to set up and configure the DPM Workspace for the organization. The provided information and configuration prompts enable visibility into the end-to-end service and application life-cycle.
With a DPM admin role [sn_dpm.dpm_admin], access the DPM Admin Center to set up and configure the DPM experience for the organization. The Admin Center provides easy to follow setup steps and includes tooltips and links to resources, plugins, and configuration tables.
Note: An administrator [admin] must install plugins.
