Publishing Tab

Offerings are published into one or more catalogs so that they are available in the Marketplace Portal. Offerings can be published into the Global Shared Catalog, which is shared among all organizations, or into an organization-specific catalog. Within a catalog, Categories reflect logical groupings of related services. Service offerings can be published more than once in a single catalog provided a different category and approval policy are selected.

  2. Click Publish and enter the following information in the Publish Service Offering dialog:

    • To Catalog - Select from the list of available catalogs or click Search to filter the list.
    • In Category - Categories are filtered according to your catalog selection.
    • Approval Policy - Used to configure approvals for user operations that exist in the design that is associated with the offering.
