Operating Model Reverse Engineering (OMRE)
Overview
The main purpose of the OMRE
- Audit trail of the all Operating Model objects
- Change management of the Operating Model
- Additional functionality that will bring more flexibility in the management of the Operating Model
Possible use case scenarios
- Explore Operating Model objects as regular assets and relations without Admin role
- View various diagrams to help understand the model with all asset types and (complex) relation types between them (it will help during the design of the custom asset model)
- Find all dependencies between objects to assess the impact of the changes, e.g.: which Operating Model objects will be impacted in case of attribute type removing
- Check which asset types are using particular attribute type before changing its description or number of possible values
- See who and when created/changed the Operating model object
- See how many objects have been created/updated/deleted since your last OMRE export
- Propose changes to the existing Operating Model objects (e.g. description of the attribute type) review, approve and implement them through the workflow
- Find which users or user groups are assigned to a given role
- Find some gaps and mistakes in the Operating Model – unused objects, empty domains, overlapping scopes etc.
- Check how existing asset types are governed by showing all workflows which are assigned to the particular asset type

Release Notes
- The new version of ScopeApi returns an Immutable List. This version includes a fix on the workflow casting the Immutable List to Arraylist to fix the issue
- There are no changes to the Operating Model and Asset Model
Compatibility
- Collibra Data Intelligence On-Prem
Dependency
- Java Runtime Environment 8
- Collibra API v2

Release History
Version 1.2.0
February 21, 2024
Release Notes
- fixed minor bugs
- in the past if there was a custom asset created in one of the domains in the Operating Model community and if this asset didn’t have UUID attribute type the OMRE workflow could fail in the middle of the extraction process. Starting from v1.1.2 OMRE process will be checking such assets in the beginning of the execution and will be stopped immediately
- the new attribute type “Sequence Number” has been added to the Complex Relation Type “Assignment Characteristics” so now it’s possible to control changes in the position of the assignment’s characteristics

February 21, 2024
Release Notes
- fixed bug with disabled workflows which have been extracted twice
- added counters which will be shown in the log-file during the Operating Model extraction and will make this process more transparent
- information about who started the workflow will be added to the report, as well as the start time and end time of the extraction
- the final report with information about how many assets have been extracted/updated/deleted as well as who and when was extracting the Operating Model will be added to the comments of the Operating Model community

- What does OMRE contain?
- Custom model extensions (asset types, relation types etc) that allow capturing your asset model as instance data
- A root community ‘Operating Model’ with 13 domains
- Views (diagram views, asset table views, saved searches etc) to navigate the model-as-instance-data
- Workflows which extract operating model resources and create them as DGC Assets
- Workflow which demonstrates Operating Model change management possibility
- Example of the validation rule which demonstrates how easy you can find the gaps in the Operating Model using OMRE and Collibra features

Seems like this would be very helpful for our goal to establish collibra model change managment. However, have a couple of queries:
1. Is this compatible with Collibra 2021.02.1?
2. Additionally, the full cma simulation report highlights 3 changed resources: 1 resource type (change – allowed values) and 2 views:attestable (change – config for both views). Want to understand what the impact of the view change would be?

Great workflow, full overview of the operating model in Collibra!

AdminThanks Maarten

I am getting this error when trying to run the worflow from .
“The workflow could not be started. No enabled users were found for role ‘Business Steward’,role ‘Subject Matter Expert’.”
I have users assigned to this and both of them are also Community Managers for “Operating Model”.

AdminWhich workflow are you trying to start? If it’s about “OMRE – Description Update” then you’re right, you have to have somebody assigned on this resource with ‘Business Steward’ and ‘Subject Matter Expert’ roles.

Workflow runs almost 1/2 hour and then fails with error “java.util.NoSuchElementException: Cannot access first() element from an empty List” . Is this known issue?
