Hierarchical relationships, also called parent-child relationships, exist between entities within a view. They describe that one element is partly composed of another. A process can consist of subprocesses, data categories can contain other data categories, and organizational units together form larger organizations. Therefore, these hierarchical parent-child relationships only exist within the organizational, data category, and process views. Hierarchical relationships are represented by a simple line.
