Portfolio Configuration

Configuring a Portfolio

There are two ways to access the configuration page of a Portfolio. If you are currently inside a Portfolio, open the Portfolio drop-down menu at the top right of the page, next to the Portfolio's main navigation bar and then click the Configure item.

The second way to access the configuration page is from the Manage Portfolios page (Financials > Manage Portfolios). Locate the Portfolio you want to configure in the list of all available Portfolios. Then hover the mouse at the right end of the Portfolio's row, an arrow menu will appear (see figure). Click the arrow icon, and then select Configure.

General Information

From the Portfolio Configuration screen, you can edit a Porfolio's general information such as its name, description, etc. To edit general information, first click the General item in the navigation bar on the left. This brings up the General information in the main part of the screen. Click on the field values (in bold) to edit them.

Portfolio Name

Name of the Portfolio. The maximum length of the Portfolio is 255 characters.

Owner

Owner of the portfolio. The owner, along with Administrators named by the Owner are the only JIRA users who can edit the Portfolio and see the wage information it contains.

Accounting

The Accounting section of the Portfolio Configuration screen lets you specify Finance-related settings of a portfolio.

Currency

Currency to be used for all amounts of the Portfolio. For all the Folios part of the Portfolio that use a different currency, the amounts displayed in the Portfolio for these Folios will be automatically converted to the Portfolio's currency using Yahoo Finances Exchange Rate service (if accessible from your network, otherwise an exchange rate of 1:1 will be used).

Permissions

The owner of a Portfolio is the only user having write permissions on it and that export reports in excel. Administrators you name here will also have full read and write access to the portfolio. Again note that the filter's shares controls the visibility of the Folio's issues so you should make sure it is shared with the Folio administrators.

Administrators

Administrators get the same view and edit rights as the Owner for a portfolio. You can add as many Administrators as you want to a portfolio.

History

Tempo Folio records all changes that occur on the Portfolio's configuration settings for auditing purpose. The History tab displays a table listing all changes that occurred on the Portfolio's configuration. Changes displayed include creations, updates and deletions and are sorted from the most recent to the oldest. An update is recorded for each modified field.
