Managing applications

In the context of BMC Release Process Management, an application is a software system that your organization is developing. The software system can be a software product that your organization is developing, a software service that your organization provides, or even a new operating system that your organization is creating. BMC Release Process Management enables you to efficiently and effectively manage a software system until it is released.

To work with BMC Release Process Management, you add applications and edit previously added applications. After creating an application, you then create an environment to associate with the application, and then you create components to be associated with the application.
