Adding a Top Node

You can create a new node as a top node for a hierarchy viewpoint. If you want to select an existing node to be a top node, see Selecting a Top Node.

To create a new top node:

  1. Do one of the following:

    • Open the view that you want to make changes to and then either open a draft request or create a new request.
    • From Requests, open a draft request. This opens the view, viewpoint, and the request.

  2. Select a hierarchy viewpoint to work with.
  3. Click add top node button to launch the menu and then select Add Top Node.
  4. If more than one node type is available, select a node type for the new top node; otherwise, go to the next step.

    Note:

    A new top node is added with a default name, for example New Dept.

  5. Modify the name for the new top node and update node properties.
  6. Continue to make changes, or click Done to close the request.
