Hi BPC Community,
How do I create an additional hierarchy in the Account dimension? We already have H1 (PARENTH1). We would like step-by-step directions and what part of the BCP application to perform these steps. I added, below, the dimension columns and attached the Maintain Dimension Property report.
Thanks! Barry
| Column | Properties and Hierarchies |
| 1 | ID |
| 2 | NEWID |
| 3 | EVDESCRIPTION |
| 4 | PARENTH1 |
| 5 | FINSTMT |
| 6 | GROUP |
| 7 | FORMULA |
| 8 | TEMPLATE |
| 9 | ACCTYPE |
| 10 | SCALING |
| 11 | RATETYPE |
| 12 | FORMAT |
| 13 | STYLE |
| 14 | ELIMACC |
| 15 | AcctUse |
| 16 | LOD |
| 17 | ACCTYPE_FOR_REFRESH |
Request clarification before answering.
Hi Barry,
to add a hierarchy just add 2 properties on the dimension, PARENTH2 and FORMULAH2 copying the type and length of the ... H1 and fill the second hierarchy following the rules given by Tim in http://scn.sap.com/message/7593996#7593996 and by me in http://scn.sap.com/thread/3189203 better to ignore the threads on NW because these can have some differences.
When finished remember to process the dimension.
Regards
Roberto

Hi Roberto,
I added two new properties: PARENTH2 and FORMULAH2. I then changed the name of FORMULAH to FORMULAH1. When I processed the query I get this error message: "The number of parentH columns cannot be different than the number of hierarchies."
Here is the updated Accounts dimension
| ID |
| NEWID |
| EVDESCRIPTION |
| PARENTH1 |
| FINSTMT |
| GROUP |
| FORMULAH1 |
| PARENTH2 |
| FORMULAH2 |
| TEMPLATE |
| ACCTYPE |
| SCALING |
| RATETYPE |
| FORMAT |
| STYLE |
| ELIMACC |
| AcctUse |
| LOD |
| ACCTYPE_FOR_REFRESH |
Error Message attached.
Hi Barry,
