The system ownership feature lets you assign people and groups as owners to specific systems. This will help you establish an overview of the ownership of systems in a context.

There is an inherent ownership rank order. This means that if a ONE letter code system has an owner, this owner also owns the system elements and their systems. It is possible to assign an owner to a specific system element (two or three letter code system), although another owner owns the one letter code system.

The illustration below describes the inherent ownership rank order:

System Owners & Owner Groups

Owners

Owners can be anyone in your organization, anyone outside your organization, and therefore not necessarily a "true user" (not a user) of the SEC-Hub.
Users can assign the following specifications to any owner:

  • Name

  • Role / Title (optional)

  • Group (optional)

  • Company (optional)

Create and assign an Owner

  1. Locate "Owners" in the left-hand sidebar

  2. Add new owner

    1. Select Add new owner

    2. Fill out name, role, group, and company

    3. Select Save

  3. Assign an owner to a system

    1. Select the system you want to assign in the CORE structure

    2. Select "Owner" in the right-hand sidebar

    3. Search and select the newly created owner

Congratulations! You have now created and assigned an owner to a system.

Owner Groups

Owner groups can be created if ownership belongs to more than just one individual. You can also assign owner groups and individual owners to systems simultaneously. Sometimes it's necessary to know which division or groups in the division who is overall responsible, but also necessary to know the specific individual who has the main responsibility for that system.

You can assign owners to the owner groups to generate an organizational structure for more stable life cycle management.

When you create an owner group you need to fill out a:

  • Group name

  • Add members (optional)

Create and assign Owner Groups

  1. Locate "Owners" in the left-hand sidebar

  2. Select the "Owner Group" tab

  3. Add new owner group

    1. Select Add new owner group

    2. Fill out name and add members

    3. Select Save

  4. Assign owner groups to a system

    1. Select the system you want to assign in the CORE structure

    2. Select "Owner Group" in the sidebar

    3. Search and select the newly created owner group

Congratulations! You have now created and assigned an owner group to a system.
