Creating Hierarchies

Dimensions can have one or more hierarchies. If you define multiple hierarchies, be sure to define one of them as the default hierarchy.

To create a hierarchy:

  1. Expand the folder for the dimension.

  2. Right-click Hierarchies, then choose Create Hierarchy from the pop-up menu.

    The Create Hierarchy dialog box is displayed.

  3. Complete all tabs of this dialog box.

    Click Help for specific information about these choices.

  4. Click Create.

    The new hierarchy appears as an item in the Hierarchies folder.

  5. When you are done creating hierarchies, create attributes for the levels.
