4.5 How to Organize the Project Folder
Introduction
The PCS 7 Wizard has created and named Unit(1) of the "fast_Prj" project. In the following,
you will rename these hierarchy folders:
● Folder "Plant(1)" will become "PLANT"
● "Unit(1)" will become "UNIT_A"
This will make the plant structure clearer.
Objects created by the PCS 7 Wizard that are not required can be deleted
Requirements
● You have completed the session in the PCS 7 Wizard "New Project".
● SIMATIC Manager is open and the "fast_MP" project and all open hierarchy folders are
displayed in the Plant view.

You can configure the different views in SIMATIC Manager by selecting View > and then, for
example, Plant View.
