The following things determine how you can nest Boxes:

  • In Box type configuration, you decide the possible parents of each Box type.  Parent Box types determine how you can build the Box hierarchy (nest Boxes) and prevent users from making mistakes and mixing methodologies. 
  • Each Box type has Scope type settings (None, Own scope, Sub-scope). 
  • Sequentiality (Box type settings) 
  • Box period mode

Scope type

Take a look at the matrix below to see how scope types affect Box nesting:

Sequentiality

Sequentiality settings affect same-level Boxes (can potentially prevent Box periods from overlapping). 

Auto bottom-up and auto scope-based Boxes are never sequential - they can always overlap.


Info

Only "manual" and "auto top-down" Boxes can be sequential - if set to 'sequential', same level sequential Boxes can't overlap.
