Accessing Dependency View of Plan Items and their Status

The Grid View is the default view of the Plans page. You can switch to Dependency View to see the point dependencies between the plan items. The dependency arrows point toward the plan items on which it (plan item) is dependent.

1. On the Plans tab in Order Management Server UI, from the plan list, select a plan and then click Dependency View icon.
   The plan items are shown in their default plan item execution flow direction, which is left to right.

   Note: The arrow direction shows the dependency between plan items and must not be mistaken for the plan item execution flow direction.
