Hi Folks
How can we build Employee hierarchy in BPC based on source data coming in following formatt.
Employee | Manager
Emp 1 Emp 5
Emp 2 Emp 5
Emp 5 Emp 6
and like wise...
Kindly help with your inputs...Further we need to build workflow system on this hierarchy.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Anurag,
This should be quite straight forward in BPC, as long as all your managers are also defined as employees.
You define your structure level per level in BPC. For example, the following structure
World
-Europe
-France
-North America
-US
-Canada
You would use the following properties in BPC
ID | ParentH1
Emp1 Emp5
Emp2 Emp5
Emp5 Emp6
ParentH1 is the property you use to specify the parent of a member for hierarchy 1. BPC has the folowing restrictions for ID:
- maximum 20 characters
- no spaced allowed
- you can only use letters (small and captal), numbers, the underscore and the dot.
ID with leading zeros are not recommeded either.

Hi Marcel
Thanks, your answer was helpfull. Understood the hierarchy part.
Can you further explain what do you mean by "You define your structure level per level in BPC" and the example below.
In our scenario, the levels are not fixed. Depth of hierachy can vary (dynamic) based on employee-manager relationships defined in source data.
Thanks
Anurag
