The Navigation Tree

In the modules Calculations, Bills of Materials and Production Orders you open the navigation tree with the button of the same name 

located at the far right of the header toolbar or with the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+T. Via the ‘Pop-out’ you can disconnect the navigation tree and show it in its entirety on a second screen. This way you have the opportunity to make the entire assembly including underlying materials, processes and sub-assemblies visible in one go.

The items shown in the navigation tree can be clicked individually, allowing you to go directly to the item in question.
