Terrain Explorer helps you investigate how records connect. Start with a known record and follow the relationships relevant to your question.
Before you start
Your workspace needs the relevant objects and relationships. Explorer availability depends on released features and access.
Use Terrain to investigate signals, record relationships, supply coverage and dashboards.
Explore the connected records
Open Terrain → Explorer.
Search for a record to start from, using a specific identifier where possible.
Open the available connections and add the related records you need to inspect.
Use the record details, relationship context and available focus controls to understand the path.
Pin relevant context to a task where supported, or open the record to continue the investigation.
Check the result
You can trace a path between relevant records and explain which relationships support the conclusion. A missing path may reflect missing data or relationships rather than no business connection.
Keep the investigation focused
Start with a supplier, part or purchase order involved in the issue. Follow only the connections needed to answer the question before expanding the map.
Use the underlying dates and quantities to verify an apparent risk. A relationship shows context; it does not by itself establish a current shortage.
Critical path context
Where available, focus controls help trace affected parts, supply and demand. Read the supported scope and current status, then inspect the records behind the path.
If something does not look right
What you see | What to check |
Nothing is connected | Check relationship mappings and whether the related records have synced. |
A connection cannot load | Retry the specific step and check source access or integration health if it persists. |
Does removing a record from the map delete it?
Does removing a record from the map delete it?
Map controls organize the investigation. Read the action’s label and confirmation before using any control that changes the actual record.
