Hierarchy
Hierarchies are grouping of attributes
which can be displayed, ordered or unordered, to reflect their relationships to
other attributes. It contains the attributes that are directly relates to each
other.
Example:
It is grouping of attribute which can be
displayed, ordered or unordered to reflect their relationship with other
attributes.
There are 2 types of hierarchies, System hierarchy and User hierarchy
There are 2 types of hierarchies, System hierarchy and User hierarchy
System
hierarchy
The System Hierarchy contains the true relationships (i.e., parent-child) between all the attributes in the schema.When
you create attributes and their relationships, you automatically create the
system hierarchy. This includes all the
attributes in the project and their respective relationship. The parent child relationship that you create
determines the system hierarchy within the project .It cannot be edited but
updated every time employee add or remove child or parents.
User
hierarchy
It is unordered and can easily change its design to include additional attributes. It provide the convenient paths for browsing attribute data .they may or may not reflect the structure of the hierarchy in your logical data model but you define the structure of the user hierarchy based , how user need to browse the data . Provide the flexibility in element browsing and report drilling. User hierarchy are also not limited to directly related attribute, it can include attributes from different hierarchy.

Hierarchy
Display
We can perform the following action to
in the hierarchy editor to control hierarchy display.
Locked
Hierarchy: A hierarchy is locked when at least one attribute within that
hierarchy has the element display option set to lock.
Limited
Hierarchy: A way to restrict the viewing of attribute elements in the data
explorer is to limit the number of elements that display at one time.
Filtered
Hierarchy: - We can add filters to a hierarchy to control how data is
retrieved and displayed.
Locked :
No elements of the attribute are shown within the system hierarchy in
the data explorer.
