What is the Dependencies Map?
The Dependencies Map provides an visual representation of all connections created within and across projects using VertoSense.
Advice
- All VertoSense links are displayed on the dependencies map by default, but only those you have permission to view will be accessible. Click once on an icon to open the full record.
- You can add the Dependencies Map widget to any of your dashboards to display these connections there.
How to view the Dependencies Map
While in a project or programme, click Actions > Dependencies in the right-hand menu. The map will automatically display.
How to filter
You can filter the information on your dependencies map by clicking Actions > Filter.
The filters allow you to adjust the display so that focus is placed on:
- Internal connections within a project i.e. risk connected to cost
- Incoming connections from other projects i.e. incoming dependency
- Outgoing connections to other projects i.e. outgoing dependency
You can also:
- Zoom in or out on the map either by using your mouse or the +/- buttons on the screen.
- Click on the arrow buttons to reposition the map on screen.
Change Layout
The default layout for the VertoSense connections is the dependencies map. If required, the layout can be switched to a table view. To switch between the different layouts, click on the Map/Table Icon.
Choosing the table layout will display as follows:
Advice
- The ‘Status’ and ‘View’ options will only be visible in the table layout if the approval process has been enabled on your site. See How to manage dependency approvals for more information.
