Heterogeneous Structure Explosion - Configuration

This feature is not available in the Web Client.

The Heterogeneous Structure Explosion provides a browser like visualization within the Java client to display heterogeneous data structures.

Heterogeneous Structure Explosion can be opened via the context menu (Structure > Multi level > Heterogeneous) of the respective object mask (e.g. Item, Project, Document). An additional tab (Multi-Level Structure) is added to the object mask to display the structure.

In the Heterogeneous Structures mask (System > Structure Browser > Heterogeneous Structure) the heterogeneous structure explosion can be configured.

Field Description
Use Case Use case for the creation of the heterogeneous structure explosion.
Description Description of the use case.
View Name of the entity in the data dictionary to represent the heterogeneous structure explosion.
Temporary Table Name of the temporary table which is used by the Stored Procedure to store the result of the heterogeneous structure explosion.
Stored Procedure Procedure that executes the heterogeneous structure explosion in the database.
Max. Records

Defines the maximum number of lines in a heterogeneous structure explosion list before a check for recursion is carried out.

Maximum number that can be entered: 9,999,999,999

Max. Depth Defines the maximum number of levels in a heterogeneous structure explosion tree.
Max. T-Level Defines the level in a heterogeneous structure explosion list; when reached, a preventive recursion check is carried out once.
Threshold Record Defines the line number in a heterogeneous structure explosion list; when reached, a preventive recursion check is carried out once.
Recursion Level

System checks in a heterogeneous structure explosion up to this level if a recursion exists.

  • If a recursion exists, the structure of the respective node is only displayed up to the recursion. The rest of the heterogeneous structure explosion is displayed completely.
  • If no recursion exists up to the defined level, the system checks the rest of the heterogeneous structure explosion until a recursion is found.
    If no recursion can be found, the recursion check is stopped at the end of the list.

If the entry for this field is set to 0, no recursion check is carried out.

In case a recursion is found, it is marked in the list.
