Graph Explorer
Use Graph Explorer to follow the relationship between a module, its data entities, forms and actions.
Open and find your module
- Sign in to your WMS installation, then open Studio from its configured entry point.
- Select Graph Explorer in the top navigation.
- Use the module selector to find the module you need. Check its version and Active, Draft or Archived status.
- Choose a layer, then select a node. Read its details in the sidebar before opening an editor.
- Use Fit to bring the graph back into view if you lose your position.
Active modules are shown read-only. Create a draft before editing configuration.
Layers
| Layer | What it helps you inspect |
|---|---|
| BIOs | Data entities and their relationships |
| Forms | Screens, tabs, slots and form connections |
| Extensions | Registered behaviour and bindings |
| Navigation | Transitions between screens |
| Menu | Menu entries for the module |
| Toolbar | Available actions and their items |
The floating controls provide panning, selection, zoom, fit and draft editing actions. Availability depends on the selected layer and whether the module can be edited.

Follow a connection
Select a form and inspect its details and navigation. Distinguish a form connection from a data relationship: a tab or slot describes screen composition, while a BIO relationship describes related data. Use the sidebar and connection labels to establish which one you are changing.
