Message text: The hierarchy name could not be derived for the item hierarchy
You used the globale hierarchy variable <ZH><(>&<)>0FROMITM</> for the
characteristic <DS:GLOS.3526B792AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>financial
statement item</> in the report. The system was unable to derive the
hierarchy name for this characteristic from the characteristics
<DS:GLOS.3526B795AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>consolidation chart of
accounts</> and <DS:DE.FC_DDSUMIT>totals item</>.
No hierarchy will be displayed.
Try to make sure that the value for the characteristic Cons Chart of
Accounts is unambiguous in the report. You can achieve this by defining
the characteristic in the report via the characteristic selection, or
in the layout by creating exactly <ZH>one</> variable for the
characteristic as the variable for the "from" value. If this condition
is met, all item hierarchies for this cons chart of accounts are
displayed.
Similarly, if the value for the Totals Item is unambiguous, then the
sub-hierarchy belonging to this totals item is displayed.
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
