VISUALIZING THE FLOW OF RESOURCES IN AN ALLOCATION MODEL

Embodiments are directed towards visualizing the flow of resources in an allocation model. A visualization model may be selected based on an underlying allocation model. The visualization model may include visualization model items. Allocation model items in the allocation model may be mapped to the visualization model items included in the visualization model. If a visualization model item is selected, the source visualization model items that provide resources to the selected visualization model item may be determined. And, the target visualization model items that receive resources from the selected visualization model item may be determined. Input flow lines that start from the source visualization model items and end at the selected visualization model item may be generated and displayed. And, output flow lines that start from the selected visualization model item and end at the target visualization model items may be generated and displayed.
