What Is a Portfolio?

Portfolios group projects together in the project manager. The portfolio you are presently working in is your current portfolio.

When you first run JDE, the personal portfolio is created in the project manager as your default portfolio. You have write access to this portfolio.

JDE saves the current portfolio from one session to the next. JDE also saves the current project if you have write access to the portfolio where the project is stored.

Portfolio Operations

Using the project manager, you can:

Portfolio Files

JDE stores a portfolio in a file called portfolioname.psf. The file is built in the directory that you specify when you create the portfolio.

The location of your personal portfolio depends on the platform you run and where you installed JDE. Review the following information for the location of your personal portfolio:

On Microsoft Windows NT
If HOME is defined, your_home_dir\jws
If HOME is not defined, c:\windows\jws

On Microsoft Windows 95
If HOME is defined, your_home_dir\jws
If HOME is not defined, c:\windows\jws

On SolarisTM
The personal portfolio file, personal.psf, is located in the jws directory in your home directory.

The jws directory in your home directory contains a list of the portfolios loaded into your current JDE session.
