ARCTIC PARADE / FIELD GUIDE

Your first estate review.

A self-service walkthrough. No meeting, installation or tenant connection required.

1. Create your workspace

Register with your company name and email. Your customer inventory belongs to your workspace. Keep your initial scan to anonymised or sample data while evaluating early access.

2. Prepare an inventory CSV

Download the blank template from Import inventory and use its technology-name reference. Customer and Technology are required columns. Include Vendor, Version, Resource, Resource_ID and Environment for useful context. Use stable Resource_ID values so repeated imports update the same resources.

3. Upload and review

Upload a CSV smaller than 2 MB. The scanner compares recognised technologies and version rules with the current retirement catalogue, including past deadlines. Open the action queue to review matches. Unknown technologies will not produce matches without corresponding notices.

4. Check the original notice

Read the vendor source and confirm the change applies to the way your customer uses the resource. An inventory match is a starting point for review, not a guarantee of affectedness or complete coverage.

5. Track the next action

Mark a match planned, resolved or not applicable. Re-import inventory as it changes. Azure inventory and Advisor sync are available after an authorised connection is configured. Weekly review digests require a verified admin opt-in and email provider setup. Account email and Stripe billing are configured for this deployment. Live Azure validation remains outstanding.
