  Error Message
  WRF_PPW813: Hierarchy &1 not found
  
  &1 is a placeholder for the hierarchy name that the system could not find.
  
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when the system tries to access or process a hierarchy (often in the context of SAP Profitability and Performance Management, or other modules using hierarchies) that does not exist or is not available in the system.
  Common causes include:
  
  The specified hierarchy name does not exist in the system.
  The hierarchy was deleted or not yet created.
  The hierarchy name is misspelled or incorrectly referenced in the configuration or program.
  The hierarchy is not assigned or activated in the relevant customizing or master data.
  Authorization issues preventing access to the hierarchy (less common).
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve the error:
  
  
  Verify Hierarchy Name:
  
  Check the exact hierarchy name being referenced.
  Ensure it exists in the system (e.g., in transaction codes related to hierarchy maintenance).
  
  
  
  Create or Activate Hierarchy:
  
  If the hierarchy does not exist, create it using the appropriate transaction or customizing path.
  If it exists but is inactive, activate it.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration or program where the hierarchy is referenced.
  Correct any typos or incorrect references.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure the user or process has the necessary authorizations to access the hierarchy.
  
  
  
  Transport and System Consistency:
  
  If working across systems (DEV, QA, PROD), ensure the hierarchy is transported correctly.
  Check for inconsistencies between systems.
