  Possible Causes:
  
  Data Inconsistency: The hierarchy data may be inconsistent or corrupted, which can prevent it from being refreshed properly.
  Missing Authorizations: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to refresh the hierarchy.
  Locking Issues: The InfoObject or its hierarchy might be locked by another process, preventing the refresh operation.
