Understanding the Program Tree Hierarchy

Each new program, along with its associated child components, follows a predefined default structure. This structure provides a clear visual representation of how system items are connected, helping users better understand relationships and dependencies.


The default structure used in Enterprise CORE is:


Program ----- Part(s) ----- Part Revision(s) ----- Workbook(s)


How does this relate to the AIAG & VDA structure and function analysis?
The Program Tree organizes your documents into Programs, Parts, Part Revisions and Workbooks. The AIAG & VDA structure and function analysis is not the Program Tree. It is entered in the worksheet, in the columns under Structure Analysis (Step 2) and Function Analysis (Step 3) of AIAG & VDA templates.
Inside a workbook, Core View combines the Process Flow, PFMEA and Control Plan in one view, so you can see how rows connect across the three documents. Enterprise CORE shows this information in row-based tables. Graph or network diagrams are not available.
