Finding Paths Between Chart Items 12.3<br />

You can use the Find Path tool to find paths between chart items. You can choose<br />

different settings in a Find Path operation depending on the sort of chart you are<br />

analyzing.<br />

There are two types of path you can search for:<br />

• shortest path<br />

• earliest path<br />

Shortest path The example chart below shows the shortest path: the path with the fewest links.<br />

Account 1<br />

Account 2<br />

Account 3<br />

Account 4<br />

Fewest links<br />

Earliest path The example chart below shows the earliest path: the path that finishes the<br />

soonest in time.<br />

Account 1<br />

Account 2<br />

Account 3<br />

Account 4<br />

Soonest finish<br />

Note: Although the examples in this chapter all use a Theme Line representation, finding<br />

links and paths based upon specified dates and times will work on association<br />

charts in exactly the same way if dates and times are included for the chart items.<br />
