In our previous blog, we covered the basics of creating a Hierarchy with Directory. Now, we’re taking a step further in this blog by enhancing our model with an extra node type, language-dependent texts, and time-dependency, both for the hierarchies and node assignments. These advanced features are often seen in SAP S/4HANA or SAP BW hierarchies but are also applicable to non-SAP hierarchies. We continue to use a simplified data model with local data for clarity, making it easier to grasp these concepts before applying them to more complex, real-world data sources. The additions to the data mo ..read more
