• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FMHIE113 - Missing hierarchy role definition for budget structure &1 ?

  The SAP error message FMHIE113, which states "Missing hierarchy role definition for budget structure &1," typically occurs in the context of budget management within the SAP system, particularly when dealing with budget structures and their associated hierarchy roles.
  Cause:
  The error is usually caused by one of the following reasons:
  
  
  Missing Hierarchy Role Definition: The specific budget structure referenced by &1 does not have a defined hierarchy role. Hierarchy roles are necessary for the system to understand how to interpret and manage the budget structure.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be a configuration issue in the budget structure settings or in the hierarchy settings that prevents the system from recognizing the role definitions.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the budget structure was recently transported from another system (e.g., from a development to a production environment), the hierarchy role definitions may not have been included in the transport.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the FMHIE113 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Hierarchy Role Definitions:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the budget structure in the SAP system.
  Verify if the hierarchy role for the specified budget structure (&1) is defined. You can do this by navigating to the relevant configuration path in the SAP IMG (Implementation Guide).
  
  
  
  Define Missing Roles:
  
  If the hierarchy role is missing, you will need to create it. This can typically be done in the following path:
  
  SPRO ? Public Sector Management ? Budgeting ? Budget Structure ? Define Hierarchy Roles.
  
  
  Create a new hierarchy role or assign an existing one to the budget structure.
  
  
  
  Transport Issues:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, ensure that all necessary objects, including hierarchy roles, were included in the transport request. You may need to re-transport the missing definitions.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view and modify the budget structure and hierarchy roles.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to budget structures and hierarchy roles for any additional guidance or updates.
