Model and visualize cross-entity connections with Relationship Overview
The Helix Portfolio Management application now introduces a Relationship Overview capability, enabling organizations to define, manage, and visualize structured connections between portfolios, programs, ideas, demands, projects, and third-party entities such as incidents or work orders.
A Relationship links one record (root entity) to another entity, allowing you to capture real-world associations across systems. For example, an Idea can belong to a Portfolio, a Demand can impact a Project, or a Portfolio can be related to an external Incident. This capability provides better traceability, context, and impact visibility across the value chain.
Relationships can be:
- System-generated and automatically synchronized, ensuring hierarchical or derived relationships remain consistent.
- Manually created, allowing users to relate internal Portfolio Management entities (such as Ideas, Sprints, or Projects) with internal or external entities from third-party applications and ITSM.
A single record can maintain multiple relationships across different relationship types, enabling comprehensive modeling of dependencies and associations.
