2.2.2.3 Project Structure
You can create object nodes directly under your project node. However, with the increasing number of your objects and the need to create the
object instances redundantly, it would be hard to keep track of your object. Instead, it would be useful to create collections as top-level folder to
categorize your objects, similar to folder structure in windows.
The following figure gives you an example on how to organize your project. In this example, we have three Collections, which serve as folder, and
one StudyFolder. The objects are categorized by its type. The Libraries Folder stores all type of library, the Products folder stores all object type
Part, while the Working Folder stores all objects required to design the layout and process of your digital factory (object type Resources and
Operations). The StudyFolder serves as collective folder to store all studies created in Process Designer. By expanding the folder you can view each
objects in the collection. You can choose another way to organize your project depending on your preferences.
