Hierarchies identify a series of parent-child relationships used to aggregate the data.
To create a hierarchy:
In the Create/Edit Cube Dimension dialog box, select Hierarchies.
Click the add icon to create a hierarchy.
Replace the HIERARCHYx placeholders with meaningful values.
Select the properties that characterize your data. See Create/Edit Cube Dimension: Hierarchies.
Select the levels that compose the hierarchy and use the shuttle keys to move them to Selected Levels.
Use the up- and down-arrows to order the levels from the most aggregate level at the top (such as Year) to the detailed level at the bottom (such as Day).
Repeat steps 2 to 6 until you are done creating hierarchies.
