Introducing the Software

Portal

This chapter includes the following topics:

■About the Software Portal

■What you can do with the Software Portal

About the Software Portal

The Software Portal lets users submit requests and install software through a

Web-based interface with little or no administrator involvement. This self-service

approach to software delivery reduces help desk calls and simplifies the process

of requesting and delivering software. Because the SoftwarePortal uses predefined

software information and delivery settings, it can automate most of the deliveries

that result from the software requests.

The administrator who sets up the Software Catalog decides which software each

user or group of users is allowed and specifies which software requires approval.

These settings determine the amount of intervention that is required for specific

software requests. Requests for pre-approved software require no further action

from anyone. Requests for other standard software require approval from a

manager or an administrator but upon approval, the software delivery is automatic.

Only the requests for non-standard software require the manager or the

administrator to take further action to deliver the software.

The SoftwarePortal is installed on the client computers. Therefore, the users can

create requests and the managers can approve the requests without requiring

access to the Symantec Management Console.

The Software Portal supports requests for Windows and Mac OS software.

See “Software request workflow ”on page 13.

Chapter

See “Requesting software in the Software Portal”on page 23.

See “Processing a software request”on page 32.

What you can do with the Software Portal

The actions that you can perform in the Software Portal are as follows:

■Configure your profile to enter your user information and preferences.

See “Setting up the Software Portal with your user profile”on page 20.

■Request software. (Windows and Mac OS only)

You can request the software that is standard for your organization, which is

known as listed software. You also can request non-standard software, which

is known as unlisted software. For example, unlisted software can be a special

utility that you need for your work but that no one else in the organization

needs.

See “Requesting software in the Software Portal”on page 23.

■Review and manage your software requests.

See “Reviewing or adding comments to a software request”on page 27.

See “Canceling a software request”on page 28.

■Review the software requests and approve or deny them, if you are a manager.

See “Processing a software request”on page 32.

Some requests might also need an administrator’s approval.
