{common_name} [({nickname})] [{version}] [ - (owner)]Where:
{common_name} | The name of the software as it referred to by the majority those who will reference the CI. Whether a commercial product or something developed in-house, this should be the full, formal name of the product (e.g., "Office Suite 2016" or "Graduate Applicant Tracking System") rather than a nickname, abbreviation, or acronym ("Office 16" or "GATS"). While nicknames and abbreviations may be meaningful to frequent users of the CI, they are not so apparent to others who are not as familiar with the application. |
|---|---|
{nickname} | Nickname, abbreviation, or acronym for the CI. The nickname should always be enclosed in parentheses to separate it from the full name. |
{version} | A version is used to identify a specific baseline of a CI. This information should only be included if the CI is being defined to track a specific version or release of the applicaiton. |
{owner} | The name of the primary end user of the CI. This is optional and should only be used to eliminate any confusion about the owner of the CI or to eliminate duplication of CI names. For example, if several departments are using the same same application software but there are separate instances of the software for each department, include the department name as the owner. For example: Office Suite 2016 - (DUE), Office Suite 2016 - (Graduate Division), etc. The owner should always be enclosed in parentheses and separated from the rest of the CI name by a hyphen. |
