Step 5. Configure the Hierarchy Settings

Step 5. Configure the Hierarchy Settings

Configure the display and export settings for a hierarchy. For example, when users view a hierarchy in
Data Director
, you might want 10 child relationships to appear by default. Or, when users export a hierarchy, you might want to include the same fields in the business entity views.
  1. Click
    Business Entity

    Hierarchies
    .
  2. Select the hierarchy you want to configure.
  3. In the tree view panel, click the settings icon.
    The
    Hierarchy Settings
    dialog box appears.
  4. Optionally, on the
    Display
    tab, enter the following values:
    • Number of expanded child relationships in a hierarchy that you want to appear by default.
    • Number of returned paths in the hierarchy search. The number of returned paths represents the connected paths between the root node and the leaf node including all intermediate nodes. For example, if you specify three as the number of returned paths, the search returns three connected paths from the root node consisting of two child nodes and the leaf node.
  5. Click
    Export
    .
    The
    Export
    tab opens.
