Practical Issue #1: Building a Hierarchy

29 Views

Hello Experts,

I am working on the following hierarchy and came up with some question I believe you can help me.

OrgStruc

-


Region

-


Country

-


ProfitCenter

Countries: Holland, Canada, Nigeria

Regions : Americas, Europe, Africa

Profit Center: CenterNum, Unit, AAA, BBB, CCC

While trying to set this up, I encountered the following problems:

I created characteristics: Org, Region, Country, ProfitCenter. L left all options as default

except under Hierarchy tab, where I checked with Hierarchy; Time-dependent hierarchy structure, then activated for all.

The lowel level in the hierarchy (ProfiCenter) where data will be loaded from the flat file was not set as a hierarchy.

1.

How do I bring in the CenterNum, UnitNum, AAA, BBB, CCC into the hierarchy? Any special consideration for the CenterNum and UnitNum which together form the primary key for the in coming flat file.

I will post the remaining questions(2,3,..) in a differnt post for purposes if point

Thanks in advance.
