SAS Decision Manager enables
you to create a portfolio in the model repository. You use a portfolio
to manage multiple projects and models in one place. From a portfolio
level, you can create multiple projects from a control table and then
add new versions or new input variables to all projects within the
portfolio. After you set the champion model for each project, you
can monitor the performance of the champion models for all projects
and publish the champion models to the SAS Metadata Repository.
Portfolios are also
created when you use SAS Factory Miner to register projects to the
model repository. The portfolios contain the project segments and
models from the SAS Factory Miner project. For more information about
how to register SAS Factory Miner project segments and models, see SAS Factory Miner: User’s Guide
Note: Because of how portfolios
and projects are created in the SAS Decision Manager model
repository, SAS Factory Miner project names, model names, and segment
variable values cannot contain special characters. That is, only alphanumeric
characters, the underscore, and the hyphen are allowed. Users are
unable to register models when special characters are encountered.

can be performed for a portfolio:
