Prod. Hierarchy

[Former Member]

Product hierarchy can be generally structured as shown below:

1 00001 Electrical appliances

2 00002 Household appliances

3 00000003 Wet appliances

In this example, a dishwasher belongs to product hierarchy 000010000200000003

Even though i have my prod structure levels set up as 5/5/8 , system is allowing the below combination?Did i miss to configure something?

1 00001 Electrical appliances

2 0000100002 Household appliances

3 000010000200000003 Wet appliances

In this example, a dishwasher belongs to product hierarchy 000010000200000003

Also, Can one article belong to more then one "lowest level" of the hierarcy?

Hi,

Article Hierarchy and Product Hierarchy are different. I am very sure on that.

Yes Article hierarchy and product hierarchy are different. We are still using 4.7 system so we only have product hierarchy.
