The record hierarchy displays records in the database and how they relate to one another. The record hierarchy can be displayed in the standard Record Explorer pane or in a pane that is configured to display a customized view of the record hierarchy using a configured explorer.
A configured explorer is a Catalog item that can be used to provide a customized view of the record hierarchy when a record is opened in the Record Manager. Configured explorers control which families appear in the record hierarchy. When you open a record in the Record Manager, if a family has an associated configured explorer, the tree will display the contents that have been pre-defined based on a configured explorer, and the pane will be labeled according to the name of the configured explorer (as it appears in the Catalog). Configured explorers may also be displayed when you open records via hyperlinks on Home Pages, in query results, or on Associated Pages menus.
The following image displays an example of the record hierarchy as it appears in the Record Explorer pane.
Throughout this documentation, we assume that the record hierarchy is displayed using the standard Record Explorer, and we provide details on the features and functions of the record hierarchy as it appears in the standard Record Explorer pane. Most of these features will also apply to configured explorers, but some features may be slightly different.
