Defining Trees

This portal is used to view and maintain information about a tree definition. Trees are commonly used to display hierarchical relationships between objects in the system. Refer to Trees for background information about defining trees.

You can access the portal from Admin > System > Tree. You are brought to a query portal with options for searching for a specific tree definition. Once a tree has been selected you are brought to the maintenance portal to view and maintain the selected record.

The following zones will appear as part of the portal's Main tab page

  • Tree. This zone provides information about the selected tree.
  • Tree Nodes. This zone lists the nodes for this tree in hierarchical order. Use the zone actions to add or maintain a node in the tree.
  • Tree Node. This zone displays the details for a tree node. It is only visible if a tree node name has been broadcast from the Tree Nodes zone.
