Hi Mohan,

Product Hierarchy is used for Profitability ananlysis. You can have maximum of three level in SAP for a product.

You have to give the product hierarchy in Material master Sales- Sales Org -2 view. You can define the product hierarchy in IMG settings from the following path

Customization

IMGLLogistics General>Material Master>Settings for Key Fields>Data Relevent to Sales and Distribution-->Define Product HierarchiesMaintain Product hierarchy

Flexible Planning

You can able to Define your own characteristics and Key figures

Char like Sales org,Dis chann, Div,......

Key figures like stock,invoice qty,....

steps

1) Create Info structute MC21

2) Maintain Planning Parametes MC7F

3) Create Planning Type MC8A

4) Create Flexible Planning MC93

5) Copy to active version MC8V

6) Transfer to Demand managemet

5) Create Std SOP Planning -MC
