routeOrientation & Navigation

How to navigate and explore the org chart, and available toolbar tools

The left toolbar provides all navigation and analysis tools in Main Org. All actions are view-only — to make changes to positions, create a Scenario.

Toolbar Tools

Find employees or positions by name or job title.

  • Results navigate the org chart to that position.

  • Works across your accessible scope.

  • Shortcut: Cmd/Ctrl+K or /.

Filter

Show only positions matching specific criteria (for example, Department, Location, Pay Grade, or custom fields).

Two filter modes are available:

  1. Standard Filtering — Shows only matching positions and may break visual hierarchy.

  2. Manager Filtering (reccomended) — Preserves reporting context by keeping managers visible above matching positions.

Filters persist across Org Chart, Directory, and Forecast views.

Use Clear All to reset filters.

Tree View

Displays the organization as an indented list. Use Tree View to quickly navigate deep hierarchies without expanding cards manually.

Highlight

Color-code positions by any attribute.

  • Use Fill Color to apply one attribute.

  • Use Outline Color to apply a second attribute.

  • Toggle the legend to see what each color represents.

Highlighting does not change data — it is a visual tool for analysis.

Card Content

Control which fields appear on position cards.

  • Add standard, custom or calculated fields

  • Drag and drop to reorder fields.

  • Changes apply immeditely.

💡 Keep cards minimal — 3–5 fields for readability; add more only for specific analysis.

Spotlight

Dim non-matching positions to focus on specific criteria.

  • Apply preconfigured rules (for example, span of control ranges)

  • Spotlight by any available attribute, including custom fields

  • Matching positions are highlighted; others appear dimmed

Spotlight helps identify patterns within the organization.
