A structure is used to organize the platform by hierarchically grouping objects (projects, resources, etc.) or users. 
Hierarchies
Enables rights management and localization/partitioning of access to certain objects. This is known as a structure link.
Example: the geography structure contains continents on level 1, countries on level 2 and cities on level 3.
It is possible to associate a structure with a user group to restrict rights. By default, an object has unrestricted access, but if it is attached to a user group, only users belonging to this group can use the object.
Hierarchy list
This screen lists the hierarchies, with the following information: 
Wording, Description, Identifier.
No customizable view are available for this screen.
If an object is linked, then by default it is not visible to users who do not have the right to use the object specifically on its structure link perimeter. To make an attached object visible to users, they must have general or role role rights to the object's structure link perimeter.

If the structure linked to objects, deleting it automatically clears the associated links. No orphaned data is left in the database. Previously, this deletion process caused errors.

Creating and modifying a structure
The screens for creating and modifying a structure are similar, except for the presence or absence of data.
This screen is divided into two tabs:
- No access
- No access
Rights required :
Change in version 7.8: Creating a structure now structure a general law : the button Create a structure is no longer accessible to users who have only a role or hierarchical role for this permission.
The rights to view, use, modify, and delete a structure controlled by the structure structure link , just as before.
Possible actions on a structure from thecontextual menu :
This button is available in the contextual menu of a structure.
It exports structure details to a .csv file, which contains :

The three columns for level values are repeated if a structure value exists for another level.
Each structure value is included in a line.

Adds a new element that can be attached to a level in this structure.
For example, if you want projects to be partitioned using this structure, click on Add an itemthen select Project in the drop-down list.
Delete structure link configuration
Eliminates the possibility of attaching a level in this structure to an object in the application.
For example, if you no longer wish projects to be partitioned by this structure, click on this button. A confirmation window appears, and on deletion, projects no longer carry the structure value, and it is no longer possible to attach them to this structure.
Attach to a structure
You can add structure as a structure, and then select a hierarchical value from another structure.
