    From PPM, navigate to Hierarchy, where you have access to Children and Parents (separate pull-downs).

     

    From database perspective, INV_HIERARCHIES stored the relationship.  There are other tables, (aka 'flat' version).

     Data is held in the PRSUBPROJECT and PRTASK tables

     See the "Projects" entity reference diagram in the Technical Reference Guide

     

    To get the full "tree" you will need to make recursive joins (On Oracle this is the CONNECT BY syntax in SQL) 

     

    As has also been mentioned the "hierarchies" tables also give a view of that data.

     

    Note that a project may be the child project of multiple parents (i.e. A is a parent of B, C is also a parent of B, D is also a parent of B), but the application will prevent a circular reference from happening (so A is a parent of B and B is a parent of C and C is a parent of A can not happen)

    And if a child has multiple parents, the Allocation Percentage is populated with how much of the child's financials and effort rollup to which parent.
