Model contents

There are various model content overviews in the Portal which you can access via the navigation bar. You can navigate to specific model contents in these overviews. One of the overviews is the Quick navigation where you can view all model contents and the different hierarchy levels expanded side by side in columns. You can sort or move the individual objects in the columns as you wish using drag & drop. In the Processes and Project areas, you can also view the contents in a Column chart in which the process structures are displayed in a process map that is generated automatically.
