Comparing Business Assets

You can compare business assets (business terms, business policies, and more) side by side to gain more insight and see asset property differences. You can also compare them based on similarity or distinct properties and more.

For example, the following steps walk you through comparing business terms. Similarly, you can compare other business assets in Business Glossary Manager.

To compare business assets, follow these steps:

  1. In the Asset Workspace pane, under the Business Terms node, click the required catalog.

    2. The business terms list appears in the Compact View tab.

  2. Select the required assets from the list.

    You can select up to five assets for comparison.



    Alternatively, you can also compare assets in the Grid View tab.
  3. Click Add to Compare.
    The Asset to Compare sheet appears.

    You can click to remove assets from the compare list.
  4. Click Compare.

    5. The Compare Assets page appears and displays side by side comparison of asset properties for the selected assets.
