Overview

The Tree Grid View application provides a means to build a visual data structure for end users. The data structure can provide information on where a given item fits in the context of other items. It offers a visual layout of the data as a Relationship tab in item view. The application supports sorting on selected columns at every level in the grid that displays hierarchical data.

The Tree Grid Views are grids defined by the administrators. This application takes advantage of the Query Builder application to submit a query to get the necessary data. It then uses the data to populate the grid created by the administrator.

This guide describes the procedures to create a Relationship Tab on the Part ItemType showing a grid like the one depicted in Figure 1.

Extended Properties (xProperties) enable you to add text, create rules, and define variables as Item properties. You need to assign xProperties to a specific ItemType. Once you assign them, they can be used by items associated with that ItemType. You need to define xProperties for an Item before you can use them.
