The Structure view shows logic structure of the scenario. It depicts the main elements of the supply chain (Customers, DCs, Factories, Suppliers) with their connections.

The structure of the supply chain cannot be altered here. Navigate to the Sourcing table to manage the connections.

The structure view allows you to reorganize and filter the elements on its layout, making the whole idea of the supply chain look more intelligible.

If objects of different type are placed in one node, such node will have the anyLogistix icon instead of the objects' icons.

You can pan and zoom the structure like you do it on the map.

The Structure contains two sets of controls to work with. Here belong:

1. Structure toolbar — use them to navigate within the structure, center it or reset its layout.
2. Filter options — use them to filter the elements that are shown in the structure.

The structure toolbar comprises the following elements:

• Minimap — helps a user to navigate within the depicted structure.
• Center — locates the current structure layout in the center of the structure view. The depicted structure may be rescaled to fit the structure view.
• Default view — [Available if a user changes the default structure layout] resets the user-defined structure layout.
