  Modifying the hierarchy settings.
  Ensuring that the node is properly defined in the financial data structure.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on the financial management module you are using. This can provide insights into the expected configurations and data structures.
