There are two operating levels in VCOM: The portfolio and the system level

In VCOM, there are two main operating levels. Choosing one will change the view of the content area:

portfolio level : This operating level gives you an overview of all your systems in VCOM.

Adjust administrative settings that affect your entire portfolio, such as user management, at this level under settings.png Portfolio settings.
When accessing VCOM, you usually access at portfolio level. When you later want to return from system to portfolio level, select space_dashboard_24dp_000000_FILL0_wght400_GRAD0_opsz24.svg Dashboards. Alternatively, you could also directly navigate to special portfolio level actions, such as assignment_24dp_000000_FILL0_wght400_GRAD0_opsz24.svg Report, bar_chart_24dp_000000_FILL0_wght400_GRAD0_opsz24.svg Analysis, or calendar_today_24dp_000000_FILL0_wght400_GRAD0_opsz24.svg Calendar.

system level : This operating level is the individual view of each system (= plant).

Adjust settings that affect an individual system, alarms, term-definition, or feed-in revenue at this level under icon-wrench1.png System settings.

To access a system level, hover over a system name in the systems list and select icon-circle-right4.png Go to cockpit. Alternatively, you could also directly navigate to the Evaluation tab by selecting icon-stats-dots1.png Go to evaluation.
