App Portal Catalog Item Properties Dialog Box

For catalog items that require a complex set of properties, it would be beneficial to create an App Portal template that contains all of those settings and properties. Then, whenever a new catalog item is created, properties and settings can be automatically loaded by selecting that template.

If templates have been created in App Portal, you can assign one of those templates to an application on the App Portal Information tab of the Application View.

To select an App Portal Template:

1. Open the Application Manager Home tab.
2. Select an application in the tree. The Application View opens.
3. Select the App Portal Information tab. The App Portal Information tab opens.
4. Next to the Template field, select a template from the list.
5. Make sure that publishing to App Portal has been enabled, as described in Enabling Automatic Creation of App Portal Catalog Item, and that at least one category has been selected.
6. Click OK. When this application is published to System Center 2012 Configuration Manager or Symantec Altiris Server, an App Portal catalog item will be automatically created and all of the properties and settings defined in the selected template will be assigned.
