Maintain Hierarchies in MDM

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I've found some documents about creating and enhancing Hierarchies and categories in MDM repositories, but I still haven't understood if (and how) is possible to modify a hierarchy (from an xml file coming from SRM) even if there are records in the main table assigned to that hierarchy.

Thanks to all.

You should use an Inbound port in order to put there the XML file coming from SRM. You also need to create an import map using the import manager in order to have those hierarchies or categories modified. The name of those categories which already have items from the main table assigned can be changed, but the structure itself can not unless you first unassig them and after the change you assign them again to the correspondent categories.

I hope this helps
