Select items to include in this hierarchy.

Use this drop down list to select a business area that contains the items that you want to use in the hierarchy.

Use the expandable list below to select one or more items. To add items to the hierarchy, move items from the left-hand list to the right-hand list.

Description

This field displays a brief description of the item format currently selected in the right hand list.

Promote

Use this button to move the selected item up one level in the hierarchy.

Demote

Use this button to move the selected item down one level in the hierarchy.

Group

Use this button to position selected items on the same level of the hierarchy. Use grouped items so the Discoverer end user can drill from one item to display two levels of detail (for example, the user could drill from Product to description and full description).

Ungroup

Use this button to ungroup the selected items, which means that they are no longer on the same level of the hierarchy.

Notes

  • You can select more than one item by pressing the Ctrl key and clicking another item.
