Element hierarchy
These are the element types in Planon ProCenter.
• Hierarchical elements
• Simple elements
Hierarchical elements are divided into sub elements.
For example, Department.
A simple element cannot be subdivided.
For example, Person.
The hierarchical elements in the elements list can be collapsed or expanded. The
symbol in front of a hierarchical element’s name indicates the presence of sub elements.
It is possible that sub elements inherit values from the parent element. The inherited data overwrites all data that will be automatically specified as a result of selections made on previous selection levels.
