End User Devices Workshop

Preparing your End User Devices data

1. If you haven’t already done so, load your end user devices data like:
   • Desktops
   • Mobile Devices
   • Any End User Devices
2. Following Apptio standard practices, categorize each raw data set into the category of 01 – Raw Data.
3. If appropriate, apply a date filter to your end user devices data.
