 Maintaining SCE Views

Use

The SCE offers two different ways to view your model, enabling you to examine your entire supply chain from different perspectives.

The geographical view shows the locations realistically but not always clearly. For example, if several locations are close together, your view will be crowded and it may not possible to distinguish the locations from each other.

The logical view, on the other hand, depicts the supply chain in its logical format, irrespective of its geographical coordinates.When you open a logical view for the first time, all objects are grouped together in the upper left-hand corner. You can either drag and drop the locations into your map area, or use the Default Position icon that prompts the system to automatically place the locations according to their normal sequence in the supply chain, that is Start of the navigation path Supplier Next navigation step Plant Next navigation step DC Next navigation step Customer End of the navigation path You can rearrange the locations by using the left-hand mouse button to move them around. The logical view provides exactly the same functionality as the geographical one.
