Setting Up the Framework (Contract Manager)

The Framework allows:

• Defining Services, Service Groups, Service Domains, and Units
• Creating and maintaining templates, including Business Logic and Timeslot templates, and Business Logic Modules
• Managing Custom Attributes for the Resource Types

At this stage, all system-wide entities identified during the Design phase are created in the Framework section of the application. Only when the system contains these framework entities is it possible to proceed with the creation of Contracts and their related Metrics.

Building the Framework entails adding the following new items:

• Servicess
• Service Groups
• Service Domains and Domain Categories
• Measurement Units
• Timeslot Templates
• Contract Parties
• Custom Attributes

For further information about each of the above items, refer to the Online Help.
