Organization Structure
A Organization Structure ( organizational structure ) is an analysis model in the software development . It is an extended version of the Organization Hierachy with typed relations in order to be able to map several hierarchies in a primary organization . The Organization Structure offers a significantly higher flexibility compared to the Organization Hierachy with a little more complexity.
If frequent changes are expected to the organizational structure types in the organization, such rules should (English: rules ) limitations (English: constraints ) be stored in a separate class. If, instead, changes to the organization types are to be expected frequently, the restrictions should be contained in the respective organization objects. Optimized placement of the rules ensures that frequent changes in the organizational structure result in the least possible changes in the data model.
