SAP Analytics CLoud - Custom Hierarchy on BW Live Connection

[keinhoff]

Hi all,

with 2020.Q2 release the feature for creating custom hierarchies on BW live connection was announced. Unfortunately I cannot find any hints in the documentation how to use this feature.

I imported the relevant notes 2865887 and 2865929 and we are already on SAP BW 7.50 SP16. From my point of view all prerequisites are fulfilled.

Are there any other settings I have to keep in mind to make use of this feature? Any settings within the BW Query? I can imagine that hierarchies should be activated on the infoobject used in the query. But also this is the case.

Is there anyone who can share experiences with this?

Regards

Kjell

Are you able to see any BW hierarchy when you go to the Hierarchy option in the builder?

I am able to create hierarchy based on BW/4 2.0 SP4 system (see post and screenshots below). On the query side make sure you have the hierarchy enabled, in this case we already had an hierarchy associated with the object and we were able to create a new hierarchy.

Hi henry.banks ,

thanks for your answer but that is what I already know and also found. But unfortunately there are no further information except that the feature exists. But in our system I cannot find this possibility as secribed in the screenshots. So I thought there might be some other settings to be done somewhere. 🙂

Hi, I have exactly the same issue, but we are using BW4 2.0. I even tried to ask here: https://blogs.sap.com/2020/02/24/blitz-unboxing-custom-hierarchies-groups-for-bw-live-in-sap-analyti..., but no answer so far.
