Sharing toolkits

The toolkit author can share the toolkit with another business developer on a Process Center that is enabled for sharing.

Ensure that the Process Centers are registered to each other and enabled for sharing. See Registering a Process Center.

When both Process Centers are registered, the toolkit author can release a toolkit snapshot to be shared. The toolkit author can also see which subscribers are using the toolkit, and which versions they are using. When the toolkit author updates a toolkit and releases the changes in a new snapshot, the subscriber can view the changes. The subscriber can then decide to update the dependency with the new snapshot.


Procedure

To share a toolkit:

  1. In the Process Center, select the Toolkits tab to display the list of toolkits.

  2. Click the drop-down menu on the toolkit that you want to share and select Status. The Set Snapshot Status window opens.

  3. Click Released and then click OK.

  4. To open the management page for the toolkit that you just released, click Manage.

  5. Click Share Toolkit with other Process Centers.


Results

The toolkit is available to the registered Process Centers.
