Active Hierarchy

[Former Member]

Hi, Guys!!!

I'm working with product in SRM 6.0 and i have a question about active hierarchy.

As far as i know, products in SRM are coded using the following scheme: Hierarchy-Category-Product. But it's possible to create not only one hierarchy in the system. In that case only hierarchy marked as active gives an opportunity to work with products.

So my question is "How can i programmatically find the active hierarchy?"

Thanks in advance!!!

Hi,

You can check the fields "VALID_FROM" and "VALID_TO" for that hierarchy in the table "COMM_HIERARCHY".

Do you mean that i can't create hierarchy with the same values in that fields?

Hi,

The table fields will tell you which are the current active Hierarchies.If you have multiple R/3 backend systems connected to your SRM system,then you will be having multiple Hierarchies which are active.

What is your exact reqt?

In my case, hierarchies could be downloaded from R/3 or created at SRM manually. The purpose of my work is to replicate some products (with their category and hierarchy) to another system.

So, here are my questions:

1. Can i create a product which is corresponding to various categories?

2. Can i create a product which is corresponding to various hierarchies?

3. If answer on the first or the second question is YES, then how can i find to which category and to which hierarchy my product corresponds?
